4. Hufflepuff
Millicent often found herself bullying the Hufflepuffs just because. They were the obvious targets, she supposed. The weakest links of Hogwarts. The girls didn't stand up to her and the boys were intimidated by her size. It was a good system.
"Don't worry, Hannah," Susan Bones and Millicent's latest victim were walking away, tears leaking from Abbott's eyes from the pain. Really, Millicent thought, you shouldn't wear your hair in pigtails. It begs people to pull them. "She's an ogre. An immature, stupid ogre."
This might have stung her if she was younger. The fifteen-year-old was used to it by this point. Ogre. Troll. Hag. All lovely nicknames given to her by her ever so clever classmates. As if she hadn't heard it all before.
She decided not to penalize Susan for the insult. Millicent had enough of Hufflepuffs for the day.
