But Jacob fell silent none the less.

"You know it would be much easier on all of us if you'd just used a more violent punishment. Or maybe if Lainey was here it could have been over with already"

But alright... if they chose to do it this way. "The Professor would like me to write a poem to apologize to the Puff for trying to feed him to the Snargaluff." he said calmly. "But you see... I feel no remorse for my actions, and it would therefore be a waste of time and a complete lie. Also, I do not write poetry... I don't know how, and I'm not going to learn by writing a lie." there. He got his answer.

"And you know where I stand." he started. "I believe violent punishments are much more effective, and the victim gets the message much more quickly." but that was just Jacobs thoughts
So he didn't want to write poetry. Big deal. Now that was an EASY and KIND detention compared to what Jacob could have faced at the hands of other professors.

"Wading through a river of piranhas is out of the question," Vindictus began. "However, I think that the punishment of writing poetry is just because you despise it. Professor Lainey would agree with me on this matter if she were here but she isn't."

Pause.

He pulled something out of his pocket and held it up between his right thumb and middle finger.

It was the Ravenclaw Quidditch Captain's badge.

"Failure to write the poem in a heartfelt manner will result in this going to someone else. Do I make myself clear?"

While waiting for Jacob to reply, Vindictus directed a question to Seren.

"Professor Bentley, can Mr. Blunt write his poem in the form of haiku?"
