Starting fights, screaming, and storming out of class was not the way to do that.

A small smile was given in response to the apology. "I know." She was a good kid. Despite that, there were going to be repercussions. "We can talk in my office." Best to do this in private. The removal of her badge made Rosalyn's eyes widen. "You aren't losing your badge, Miss Valentine." Not only was that an extreme punishment, but it wasn't HER decision to make.
The journey to the office was a blur to Kitty. She walked with Rosalyn to her office, faces of people they passed blank and landmarks unrecognizable. A lot of this was due to the fact that she cried half the way there, though silently so Rosalyn wouldn't notice so much.

Her mind was as blurry as her eyes. Deep down she was relieved she would get to keep her badge. She didn't know how she'd be able to show her face at school if everyone knew her badge was ripped from her. Not to mention the disappointment of her mom, who probably would be a little annoyed that the reason for it was that her daughter had decided to diss her childhood house. Ofcourse, Emily would understand that she hadn't been criticizing SlytherinS, but she'd still probably be a little annoyed.

Yet keeping her badge meant she'd have to continue spending time with Natalia, who probably hated her as much as Katy did. And then there was the matter of what kind of punishment she was about to receive from Professor Rosalyn. Kitty played over some of the possible punishments in her mind. If being demoted as prefect was off the table, then thankfully being expelled was also off. That left points taken away or/and detention. Maybe she'd make her apologize to Katy.

By the time they arrived at the office, Kitty had cried all the silent tears she currently had, an was now feeling dull. The books in the office might have fascinated her another time, but now they only served as the background, the final stop of this nightmare. She knew this wasn't a dream, but wished it was. If she had a time turner, she would rewind time and phrase her answer in class differently.

Dully, she sat down and began trying to offer an explanation. "I was only trying to answer your question," she began. "You asked about the founders, so I stated a fact. It's true that Slytherin house no longer believes what Salathar believed, and it's true that what he did was evil. He made a basilisk!" Some of her original passion returned as she said this. Honestly, how did people not get it? "And I started out by telling Natalia and the others that I loved them and that I knew they were good. But it was like if they only heard the part about Salathar and not that. So I exploded. I'm really sorry for yelling at Katy, but she said that she despised ME first. I'm sorry Professor, I really am. If I could turn back time I'd just give you a different answer. I'd have said that Rowena Ravenclaw died of a broken heart, and I would have been very poetic. Then no one would have gotten mad."
