Not far from the Common Room, Ethan went straight ahead towards the Study Area and duplicated the piece of parchment he got. He got a single sheet out of the pile though, and enlarged it for anyone on the round table to see. He also placed a temporary sticking charm on it.

Now THAT is a huge reminder. Mhm.

SPOILER!!: Extra! Extra!

WE ARE AT WAR!

Well, not a war, really…

Nevertheless, my fellow Snakes, the fight for the top spot is on! Last term, our House was short by 87 points against the Gryffindors, and although the house points race proved to be one of the most exciting witnessed in years, we all secretly yearned to win and secure the top spot. Who doesn’t, right? I have to admit though, we put up a good fight last term. But we were only going easy on the competition. This time, we will show ALL the OTHER houses the true power of Slytherin and emerge victorious. The game is afoot!

But before you all head out of the Slytherin Common Room, let me give you some pieces of advice on how to get EXTRA points. First off, did you know that aside from attending classes and doing homework, you can also get credit by practicing at the Dueling Arena? As a Transfer last term, I didn’t know about this until it was a bit too late. And so, everyone is very encouraged to participate. Just remember to READ the RULES FIRST! Rules are important, so keep that in mind. We wouldn’t want to lose just because we were not diligent enough to do so, yes? And if you need a little bit of strategy, come forth and I’ll share some tactics with you.

Secondly, remember your manners. Yes, that’s right, M-A-N-N-E-R-S. Slytherins are known to be sophisticated (in so many ways), but being respectful to your fellow housemates, schoolmates (even if we are “at war” with them), professors, staff, elves, and school property…it sure will go a long way. As an incentive, keep in mind that doing so may nab you extra house points, and every single point counts.

Finally, let me introduce you to your confidant: the NOTICEBOARD. We have our own right here, where professors, staff, and students get to post lesson & homework notices (or posts on items in the lost and found), for everyone to see. Be sure to ALWAYS check it out. Be in the know! We also have the Slytherin Scroll, where Prefect Wayne and I compile everything that goes in the noticeboard for easier reference. Nothing beats organized information!

Now that you know what to look out for, and what to do, let’s work TOGETHER to get as much house points for Slytherin as possible. Remember to have FUN while doing it, okay?

And stay out of trouble! We’ll be watching.

-Ethan M.


Now that he’s got the whole Slytherin Common Room covered, Ethan turned around and headed for the door. A good, heavy breakfast was in order, no?
