Slytherin Common Room to be Redecorated.

"Green and Silver are so yesterday."

Professor Adam Balm

SLYTHERIN COMMONS- It seems that the Slytherin colors of green and silver are grating on the nerves of a few Slytherins. A meeting was held last week in the common room to discuss the possibility of redecoration in other, more cheering colors.

"Green and silver are so yesterday," Commented one supporter of the change. "We've been here so long, and the color just starts to drive you slowly insane. I think that's why Slytherins are thought to be evil. They're driven that way by their common room. I mean, I love green and silver, don't get me wrong, and I wouldn't change the fact that they're my house colors, but I just need a change. Know what I mean? Everything is so dull down here; we could use a little brightening."

"A change would lift everyone's spirits." Another supporter added. "Put some life and warmth into these rooms. Make it feel more like home, and not some stuffy manor. Hopefully, that will put a dent in the belief that all Slytherins are all cold bastards."

"Besides," The unnamed person added under their breath. "That's just Professor Snape and Malfoy. The rest of us are just cool."

"These common rooms have been decorated this way since Salazar created these rooms." Countered one opposer. "It is our duty as Slytherins to uphold tradition."

"It's tradition that got us a shitty reputation." The second supporter, who is very vocal about their opinions, countered the counterer.

"Our reputation has nothing to do with the common room colors!" The opposer fired back.

The debate raged for three hours. Not much was settled, except the fact that pink was not to be in the equation. Can you imagine pink Slytherins? Not like half the house isn't already gay, but still...

"Oh Merlin." Professor Snape moaned when he was asked to comment by the two sides. He then downed four glasses of brandy in three seconds, much to the amazement and amusement of Potter. "Piss off." Here's where Potter fell off his bed, laughing. "I don't give a damn what you do anymore. It's not MY common room. I don't have to live there, thank the Gods. You're all driving me to drink."

We must remember not to let Professor Snape have alcohol after pain medication. He becomes frighteningly human.

Another meeting is set for next week. Perhaps this meeting will get tempers up so high as to force a redecoration.
