That was certainly coming up to being the last straw. This last tantrum. This last act of demonstration that he couldn't appropriately regulate his own emotions and act with common sense. Malachi may have pointed out that if he didn't understand the questions, he could've asked for clarification rather than crumpling paper and yelling.
That if he didn't know what to write, they could've discussed it together.
The fact his only course of action was to explode and behave in the least acceptable manner was all the answer the Headmaster needed. He watched, more irked than he'd admit in the moment, when Piers walked over to baby the boy but remained where he was, leaning against the table. The boy's tears did nothing to sway him but the screaming, the yelling. Oh yes, this detention was quite over. Piers had seen it, too.
[b]"Go back to dorm. Pack your things. You'll be leaving tonight. You will go home. You will think about your actions. You and your parents will have a talk about what is and isn't appropriate behaviour at a school. About what is an appropriate reaction. Or maybe you won't, but the next time you step back inside Hogwarts, you will behave in more mature manner than you do now or you will find another school. One that will put up with your senseless tantrums and entitled behaviour. I suggest you think carefully--with someone else. Not on your own. On your own, you've proven unable to employ critical thinking to even the simplest situations."[b/] Didn't understand questions so threw things and screamed. Yes. Quite the thinker, this one.
"Take a break. A long break. You may return at the beginning of the new semester in January at which time we'll re-evaluate your readiness to be at Hogwarts with your parents present. I suggest you do some serious soul searching and growing up in this time." Or not.
"Go, now."
