Yandere Minerva Mcgonagall (platonic)

-McGonagall doesn't outwardly show her favoritism or attachment for her obsession, preferring to stay professional and neutral but certain actions don't go unnoticed.

-She takes rules and rule breaking very seriously, not tolerating it whatsoever but she's far more lenient with you then anyone else. She'll ensure your punishment isn't too ridiculously harsh, no matter who your in trouble with. She doesn't want to show any sliver of favoritism but she will take care of you where she can.

-McGonagall's obsession primarily comes in the form of her maternal instincts and protectiveness. She is by no means delusional but prefers to reason that what she's doing and how she's acting is completely justified. She's just a teacher looking after a student after all. What more is there to it? More then McGonagall ever fathomed.

-What started as her keeping a closer eye on you turned into a maternal need that she needed to quench. There was something different from you compared to the other students. She didn't know what but it pulled her in, far too deep.

-She'd prefer if you were a Gryffindor, then she'd have more control and authority over everything retaining to you. But she isn't opposed to obsessing over member of another house.

-In her need to protect and watch over you, McGonagall would entrust the golden trio to lookout for you. Whether it be them befriending you or just keeping a close eye on you, interacting when need be they would do so.

-McGonagall would very much appreciate it if you ever seeked her out as a confidant. She would love the that you obviously trusted her, lending her ears to listen or words of wisdom. She would definitely take mental notes though, keeping a close eye on any names or characteristics that slip through your conversations.

-The times you're home for breaks and away from Hogwarts, Mcgonagall would often change into her animagus form and check in on you. It would be odd for a teacher to send their student an owl just to ask how they are or what they've been up to. But her curiosity gets the better of her and she wants to see for herself if you are safe and healthy when you aren't at school.

-When it comes to her protectiveness, McGonagall has a way of reasoning things to suit her narrative . She isn't the type to excessively punish other students for her obsession but she could make an exception if they are particularly nasty. Nothing over the top but she may just let Filch put to work his own punishments for these certain students.

-McGonagall has far too much respect and authority for anyone to accuse her of not only favoritism but also of alienating certain students. Anyone dumb enough to try will just make a fool out of themself.

-When the Yule Ball comes around, McGonagall will keep an even closer eye on you and whoever you end up going with. She's making sure nothing inappropriate or funny happens. She kept an excruciatingly close eye on your partner even before the ball itself. She wanted to ensure they were the right fit and deserving of you. She has any feeling of them breaking your heart or hurting you in some fashion she would have immediately steeped in before anything could happen.

-If that person or anyone else who you were close with tried to or ended up hurting you in any way, they would be on her hex list. Again, she isn't one to just outright punish students so harshly or inappropriately but she can and will make an exception.

-If Umbridge ever targeted you during her time at Hogwarts, McGonagall would have to try her damndest not to hit that insufferable toad of a woman. How dare she think she has any right to her student! But fortunately, McGonagall's words are enough to strike Umbridge at her core. She wouldn't even hold back.

-When Dumbledore dies and the Second Wizarding War gets closer and closer, McGonagall wants you to have no part in it. She knows it's selfish of her but she doesn't want to lose you, nor does she want to lose anyone else for that matter but especially not you; the closest thing she's had to her own child.

-She may even go as far as taking you and hiding you somewhere safe. Somewhere no one can hurt you. She knows it's wrong but desperate times call for desperate measures and she's desperate.

-Once the war is won and Voldemort has been defeated, McGonagall will come for you. She will obliviate your memories and act like she hadn't stolen you away. She will take you home but not to your home. No, she'll take you back with her, where you'll be loved and cared for the right way. Whether she purposely made you forget your own family or not, we'll never know but at least you'll be happy, she'll make sure of it.
