Take a break.

It's not about us this year.

In fact, it's been quiet this year.

In fact this year we are not the enemy.

It's a novel idea...

Slytherin being ignored.

But I guess when the inescapable prison is escaped from we get forgotten.

After all, we are not that interesting.

After all, we are all still locked up tight.

After all, we are still young.

After all, we are...quite.

What's the point of watching us when there is real danger lurking in the castle?

What's the point of pointing fingers when your enemy already has a name and a face?

What's the point of looking for danger when danger is looking for you?

What's the point of focusing on a possible enemy inside the walls when there is a definite one knocking at your front door?

...and its dresses in red and gold.

Haha...hahaha!

Anyone else finds this funny?

That its a Gryffindor were all cowering from in the great hall.

That it's a Gryffindor who escaped from Azkaban.

I know I do.

I present the brave, the bold, the morally upright...the Gryffindors!

I'm bitter.

I know.

Two more years and I'll be in the world.

Then I'll know, once and for all if I can free myself from this cycle.

You hate me and I hate you because you hate me because you think I'm the kind of person you should hate.

One more time...

You hate me.

I hate you because you hate me.

You hate me because you think I am the kind of person that you should hate.

Look how it all turned out for Sirus Black.

The morally upright Gryffindor.

People must have been shocked.

Push it under the rug as quickly as possible.

Did anyone check for a dark mark?

No trial too?

I wonder if anyone noticed that he isn't a death eater?

Besides us of course.

I mean, of course, we know the death eaters, we have to.

To survive in Slytherin you have to know the payers otherwise you will find yourself on the wrong end of a wand.

Black doesn't have the dark mark...you can see his arm in a picture they took in Azkaban.

And they wouldn't have let him keep any spells on it to conceal it in prison.

We can not have been the only ones to notice this?

Oh well.

So my parents roam free and Gryffindors go to Azkaban without a trail, that makes sense.

A little bit of role reversal.

But it only proves the point I have always known...

If you do something wrong...

if you say the wrong thing...

dance the wrong dance...

support the wrong player...

wear the wrong style...

show the wrong inclinations...

curse the wrong person...

use the wrong curse...

Then its over, forever.
