Honestly! The amount of gossip one overhears is atrocious!


And this piece of pompous, over-glorified, ostentatious, indecorum is entirely too invasive and overly analytical for my taste! How, just how does my using the fish-fork for salad indicate that I am in any way ready to settle down and bear his children!?

Honestly, now I know why I don’t subscribe to the Quibbler. One thing that myself and Minerva have in common.

To my students, I say this:


Mr. Zabini, please desist from snickering as I pass in the halls, it is highly inappropriate.
Miss. Parkinson, I do not need my head examined. I am legally blind, not deaf. Yes, I did hear that conversation over lunch.
Misters Crabbe and Goyle, I insist you stop referring to me as Snape’s Professor. It’s degrading and beyond common courtesy.
Miss. Bullstrode, I need that essay by the end of the week.



Misters Weasley and Potter, please desist from snickering and flailing your arms as I pass in the classroom, it is very Slytherin of you.
Miss. Weasley, I have saved a packet of your missed work and will return it to you poste haste assuming your brother doesn’t require the same work for his transgressions.
Misters Thomas and Longbottom, I do not appreciate the artwork in the notes you pass. Neither myself nor Severus have stink-lines. At least I don’t.



Hm, I seem to have a surprising lack of Ravenclaw students.



Honestly, I would think the lot of you would have more interesting things to consume the fires of discussion. Like Miss. Abbott’s new haircut.



He does too have a soul, he just sold it.
I knew to expect a minimum amount of ribbing from both you and Minerva the moment I saw the article.
Thankfully it’s not a moving picture…


That is all.

I beg to differ, professor, but I do not snicker. What you witnessed is just a case of winter hay fever.

Very well, Mr. Zabini. I hope you find a good antihistamine.

We weren't snickering, Professor. Some dust flew up our nose.

Professor, I'm just popping you a note to thank you for the very ... very thoughtful Christmas present you gave me.

Er - yeah, that's all.

Think nothing of it Mr. Potter!

One must always look to the horizon with new eyes of glass! After all, "Sight in the halflight is worth twice that at noon."
