The day that I feared is upon me. Tuesday night, at the weekly meeting between Heads of Houses (in actuality, the same game of poker), I may have made a mistake. Call it my damned Slytherin pride, but there you have it. I knew that I was being goaded, but I couldn't help but rise to the bait. What was on the Menu of Malice this week? My infamous "Isolate Potter" plan, which did not work at all (if you don't count the Hufflepuff Insurrection). Sprout was quick to point out that Slytherin House had yet to serve detention for Potter.
Minerva got in on the ribbing and Flitwick started winning hand after hand (because I was distracted, you see.) The final straw was when Sprout called me a "yellow chicken" and that perhaps the Slytherins were too weak to serve detentions like the rest of the houses had. Of course, I vehemently denied all such allegations. My Slytherins certainly are not weak. However, I may have said that to prove how superior we are to the other houses, Slytherins would serve the worst detentions of all. Well, we can't go back on that now, and to do so would only make Slytherin House look weak.
Then Minerva (surprisingly cruel and vicious streak she has) suggested that the Sixth Years should serve detention one by one instead of with that house as a whole as did the Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws. So, here is the notice of Slytherin detentions to be served for Potter's lack of acceptable academic performance in his classes.
