Ahem.

Speaking as a Prefect, I feel it behooves me to remind all and sundry that just because a Hufflepuff went into a panic over seeing what might or might not have been a snake does NOT mean that the entirety of the student body ought to be rampaging up and down the halls in a game of Hunt the Serpent.

Or if you must do, at least try to maintain some decorum. Have a little respect and consideration for others.

CALLING ALL PREFECTS

We must act! This is INTOLERABLE!

STUPEFY THEM ALL AND LET MILLAND SORT THEM OUT LATER.

SNAPE AT LARGE

Get everyone safely into their Common Rooms NOW.

Weasley, one would have expected a Prefect to have learned where the proper staircases were by now. Does chaos run in your family? Honestly! Your brother Percy would be ashamed of you.
