Funny. I always saw him as teaching Arithmancy, for unknown reasons, but DADA works even better. Heading Slytherin House was a given. Imagine how much Draco Malfoy must loathe and abhor it.
Hadn't thought of Arithmancy. I imagine he could, but... well, we figured a nice stable DADA teacher would be suitable. *g*
Not sure what Draco thinks. He might well abhor the whole thing if Lucius and Narcissa both proved resistant to Tom's charms, though, which is possible. ;)
One of my nice recurring daydreams is imagining various people's reactions if Stepbrothers-Tom accidentally ended up in the canon universe. It usually has people asking me suspiciously what I'm grinning at.
Oh, cool, it's not just us!
And actually, we once wrote the start of a tale where Harry and Rubeus both got switched -- so far we'd only done bits in the Stepbrothers side of things, in which canon-Harry and canon-Rubeus had just been greatly disturbed by Tom (who was pretty disturbed himself at his brother and one of his students accusing him of being a psychopath, actually)... oh, and then they called Harry's parents in.
