If looks could kill....well, actually no. No matter what look the astronomer wore he was incapable of eliciting THAT level of fear into the hearts of anyone. BUT if looks could kill he was awfully close to achieving that effect.
"GRYFFINDORS!" he barked, ensuring that ALL of them could hear him with a well timed Amplifying Charm to himself. "STOP. DO NOT PASS GO. DO NOT COLLECT 200 GALLEONS. JUST STOP! All the rest of this evening's festivities have been canceled and not a SINGLE one of you is to leave the Great Hall until EVERY LAST PEA and EVERY LAST DROP of butterbeer has been CLEANED UP." And yes, he was WELL aware that not everyone had been involved in this little activity, but it mattered not. "We are a pride. A pride of lions who represent the legacy bestowed upon us by Godric Gryffindor himself and you WILL come to act that way and look out for one another to make sure that the pride acts with each other's best interests." Which certainly had NOT happened this evening. "AND PEBBLES ECHOS THESE SENTIMENTS!" he added, thrusting the pet rock into the air as if she were about to add to his little lecture. To which he had ALMOST said sediments instead of sentiments, which would have entirely debunked his entire vibe.
And Sir Nicholas? Do not even try to help weasel any students out of this one. For the first time in his Hogwarts career the man was NOT going to budge.
"There is to be NO finger pointing, just heads down and showing this school the respect it deserves from you and that includes CLEANLINESS. Magical means are acceptable." Otherwise they would be here ALL night and he rather fancied slipping into his suitjamas and sleeping, you know? And he already had an INKLING as to what had gone on here, so there was no need for anyone to gain up on anyone else. The truth will out!
"100 points will be deducted from Gryffindor and there will be OTHER consequences to follow, of which you will be hearing about at our mandatory house meeting. Tomorrow."
THE VEIN! THE VEIN WAS PULSATING! MAYDAY MAYDAY!
Also he did calm himself enough to shoot another spell up towards the ceiling and promptly ceasing the rain.
"Now let's get to work," he grumbled as he picked up a soggy roll from the floor and set it on one of the empty plates on the table. Yes, he was going to assist as well because he was also a part of that pride he had spoken of.
