"Well, I suppose that is something." Not that Truebridge was particularly willing to simply settle. The thing was, he had been reluctant to accept the position to begin with. He shot a glance at Miranda before looking at the headmaster again. That was partly why actually. While he was Slytherin himself, and was proud to be, he had not particularly liked the idea of him being head of house effecting his relationship with other houses.

"No I have not. Especially not from any Slytherin students." Ethan rummaged in his desk draw and pulled out a rather thick file. "They have, as a house and as individuals, increased their grades across the board this term and are showing a remarkable amount of unity and house pride." He offered the file to Casey, meeting his eyes.

"And I'm proud of them." He added simply.
