"Yes ok and what is it about Draco Malfoy that you wish to discuss?" he asked as Lucius panicked for a moment before Marvolo came to his rescue. They hadn't planned on it beforehand but he decided to take control in this situation.
"Well Professor it seems that Lucius here was raised to believe he was the best pureblood in our world by his own father and has since passed on this stupidity to Draco. He and I are old friends and I told him today that this is not the case. Draco needs to be punished accurately for stating openly in my class as a so called joke that muggleborns are a problem because they are still living. I realise he meant it as a joke but no one was laughing at him. When I told him off for his transgressions he blabbed like a baby to his father who came to see me at once. To be honest sir Lucius has been over babying his son to the point that he is no longer independent. I want him to learn the error of his ways and we thought who better to ask for detention ideas which would be appropriate then our esteemed headmaster" he said smoothly as Albus' features darkened somewhat.
"Yes I can see why you might ask me that. Abraxas meant well but he was a total fool. He should never have filled your head with such nonsense but that you did the same to your son is most difficult. At least we can all agree he is but eleven and not above learning his lesson. If it were me I would make him consume a potion which lasts up to two hours for his detention which does something mild to him. He needs to see or indeed feel why what he has done is wrong. I assure you we can change his ways quickly here. Thank you so much Marvolo. You have been most helpful in bringing this to my attention. Severus as his godfather I expect you to give Lucius and Professor Riddle here reports on his behaviour. I still remember how excited you were to tell me you'd been made his godfather. It stands to reason if Professor Riddle is such good friends with Lucius he can tell him too!" he supplied as they thanked him and left the office at once.
As they'd only silenced and blinded the portraits for a minute maximum and had distracted them with the things Marvolo had come up with they never mentioned the time lapse to Dumbledore. Besides some of them had actually been asleep in their portraits so hadn't known anything was out of the ordinary. They re-entered Marvolo's classroom and the door was closed again. Marvolo conjured a large enough table with two chairs behind it. It came with quills and ink and parchments already on it ready to be used.
"Sit down both of you as I will teach you some things. First of all Severus you have been most loyal to me but because of Dumbledore you have no choice but to do something highly unpleasant now which will help you in your career as it stands!" he said raising his wand and pointing at the cupboard in the corner as a pensive floated out of it. He tapped with his wand on the pensive the memory floating up out of it as he watched in horror. He was awful and so was his class. No one was in any way safe and the Slytherin's were down right reckless. He was furious at the end. They weren't safe because he'd not taught them the safety protocols and he internally seethed. How many people had suffered because of him? Well that changed at once. He was shocked at how willing the Slytherin's were in particular to be dangrous and not even care about self preservation either. Most of them didn't know that the things they were firing into people's cauldrons could explode and seriously harm them. They were only thinking of sabotaging the other students grades and this was highly reckless and foolish.
"Marvolo Slytherin house will get a stern talking to in a moment I assure you. It's nearly before dinner and they'll all be in the common room at this time. If someone isn't they'll be summoned immediately! This is an outrage and I will no longer stand for it. From now on it's fairness or nothing with me. The students are bad but it is my fault as Dumbledore's spells never let me teach them the damn safety protocols and also the Slytherin's throwing random objects into cauldrons without knowing what they do is so reckless. They could have fucking killed everyone!" he snapped his ire very evident as Marvolo smirked at him.
"Severus, calm yourself. We will deal with them in a moment. This was merely to show you what had been going on. You're not alone I promise you. When I discovered what my other self or the fool I'd inhabited before had been doing I was furious. He was a pompous smartarse and it's never ok!" he snapped himself as he rounded then looking at Lucius for a moment before stabbing his wand in the direction of the pensive removing one memory and replacing it with another.
"Lucius view this memory please as this one is for you. It's simply not enough for me to complain to you about your son. You need to see it for yourself to believe it!" he snapped as the memories came into view. They were scattered and all over the place as he'd quietly and carefully summoned them from the students in his year without being noticed and combined them all into one memory hence the reason why it was all over the shop. It chopped and changed going all over the place but he had heard Draco more then three times saying my father will hear about this.
"To be honest Marvolo he was right about that one there as I wouldn't have tolerated it but he was very wrong about the rest. I know you said you'd teach me parenting skills so what would you advise me to do? I can only go on what my own father taught me but as everyone has already pointed out it's bad" he asked as Severus gasped at what he was hearing but didn't actually say anything as Marvolo raised an eyebrow at him for a moment before turning back to Lucius.
"Yes indeed I did as you are incapable of doing so yourself. As I said to Albus your father did to you what you are doing to Draco and it ends now. He is privileged to be a pureblood and that's true but it would only take someone smarter to knock him down a peg or two despite their blood status. What is he going to do then? Stun them in a dark way and get himself a one way pass to Azkaban because should that happen I will personally insure your so called contacts do not help him escape his fate. Also you should know that those in Azkaban had been disloyal to me and died. They are all dead now!" he said as though he was casually discussing the weather.
"Marvolo I will never allow him to cast such spells and get caught we are Slytherins for a reason!" Lucius said outraged when Marvolo stood at his full height above the man leering slightly.
"And what pray tell Lucius makes you think he should be allowed to cast any at all? Quite frankly he's an arrogant ponce like you. This world is a cruel place Lucius and he'll be eaten alive in years if he's not properly trained how to behave. You will punish your son and you will not lazily resort to the Dark Arts to do it either. I want you to be creative when punishing him. Pranks are good too. Don't look at me like that Severus Pranks for punishment alone done solely by his father are a good thing not the god awful mess you endured in school. As for his punishment this time I'd suggest one tiny vial of empathy potion which should last the whole day. I want him to experience one day feeling the feelings of let's say Blaise Zabini for example! I wish him to know how anyone else feels! Severus you are dismissed!" he said waving him off as he smiled.
"Thank You Marvolo" he said leaving and rushing to Slytherin house for a serious chat. Boy this would be good.
