Vindictus lowered his wand and the effects of his spell subsided. He sighed rather loudly and looked at the kids. "I think we all need some chocolate after dealing with this," he said with the old familiar twinkle in his blue eyes. "Brownies. Gooey, chocolatey brownies." He landed and dismounted from his broom. "Anyone who has a school broom, please return them in person to the rack in the Broomshed and if you don't have a broom, stop by anyway for some brownies. Or if you don't like chocolate, there'll be some blueberry muffins and other sweet treats."

Yes, things were normal once more at Hogwarts. Vindictus's appetite said so.
