And as a term still includes the end of term feast, Professor Truebridge is more than entitled to be present at the feast for which he was employed during. Besides, regardless of that fact, he is still entitled to be here, if nothing more than as my guest." He nodded to the ancient one, as if daring him to challenge his statements. Because if Truebridge had to leave, then he would just walk out too. He had no reason to stay.
Kazimeriz shot Denton a stony look. "The Closing Feast is not a cocktail hour, nor is it a private party which you may invite your 'guests' to attend. As to your other comments, I feel no need to explain myself to you nor any other student at this institution, except to say that Mr. Truebridge's dismissal is perfectly in accordance with the bylaws of his contract with this institution. Now Sit down, Mr. Denton, or if you prefer you may gather your things and leave with Mr. Truebridge. As an of-age wizard and graduate you are within your rights to do so. It is hardly the supportive example to set for your up and coming Hufflepuffs to do so, however. "

I overestimate you, a man who supposedly prides himself on manners, morals and good breeding and yet you do not even have the common courtesy to provide a reason for what you are attempting to do, sir."

He noticed a few students reacting in shock but did not turn his attention away from the old man, though when Dominic appeared, Ethan held his hand out to quell the young man, a warning expression on his face.
"Mr. Truebridge. I assure you this decision was made strictly in the best interest of the school and its students. If you wish to discuss the matter further, or wish to discuss any interpersonal concerns that you perceive, I am more than happy to meet you during break to do so. Perhaps over tea at the Three Broomsticks. However, at this moment you remain dismissed from your position and I must ask you once again to leave the premises as a gentleman, before more drastic measures are taken." Kazimeriz met Truebridge's eyes, his expression cool and unflappable.
