Work Text:

“So, are you going to rename it? ‘Knockturn’ has come to have pretty bad implications over the years.”

“Well, I was thinking, you know how Diagon Alley is… like… diagonal, kinda, right?”

“...Harry, if you are going to say what I think you are going to say, I’ll… I’ll…”

“So, I thought Knockturn could become…”

“Harry, if you say Vertic or Horizont, I swear-”

“Actually, I was thinking Tangent Alley.”

“...”

“…”

“Get it? Because like tangentially, and a tangent touches a curve at only one point?”

“…”

“And Diagon is not a curve but it’s not exactly straight either?”

“...”

“...”

“Get it?”

“I want a divorce.”
