As he spoke house elves arrived, bringing breakfast and setting the dueling platform up like a table, summoning chairs for everyone.

"The next Slytherin I find causing trouble will lose every one of those points you gained as well as losing Hogsmeade privileges for the whole house for a month. I will not tolerate disrespect and none of you should tolerate it amongst your peers either. Think about it. When was the last time Slytherin won the house cup? The Quidditch cup? Even the Gobstones cup was wrested from Slytherin control by Ravenclaw last term. When was the last time Slytherin house worked together to achieve? Every point counts, every assignment, every smile, every bit of encouragement. You still have Quidditch, I'd like to see all of you in the stands cheering the team if you are not on the team yourself. I'll even come along myself."

And he really wasn't all that big of a fan.

"Eat your breakfast, students. Feel free to enjoy your morning and make yourselves comfortable here now. You can talk and chat as usual but keep in your mind that you and your housemates need to be united. Even the students who were punished need to be accepted and taught what it means to be Slytherin. Even those who chose not to show up this morning. Teach them."

Truebridge paused.

"After breakfast that is."

And it was almost like a mini feast. Pancakes, waffles, toast, cereal, sausages, beans; almost anything anyone might ever think of as a breakfast.

Ethan sat down and began to put food on a plate for himself, encouraging the students to do the same.

He turned to glare at the girls. "Do you mind shutti--" No, not 'shut up'. Of course not. "--being quiet and realising this is a serious meeting, not a place to chit-chat?" Like... seriously? Shaking his head in disapproval, he turned back. Merlin's beard!
