As she waited for everyone to join in, the Slytherin girl smirked over at Destiny and Marie who showed up. Truth be told, it was quite a relief to see them here. On the other hand, noticing Professor Lafay, Evelyn sat up straight in her chair, smiling somewhat. "Good afternoon, Professor." she said politely before scanning the rest of the tables. No one seemed to be eating yet...at least, not until she had took that split moment to look the other way and became distracted.

Salander seemed to have taken care of it though, however, Evelyn had witnessed the little event with Aurora and the new girl. Did...did the first year just set off a stinkbomb? In the presence of the Head Boy and Girl, AND her Head of House? Just what was going through her mind when she did that?

It seemed she could only become more and more annoyed as this meeting went on. Something had to change. She listened to all those who answered Salander's question.

SPOILER!!: Responses

She raised her hand, "Is it because people can't make it to class on time and we lost points? Or maybe its because people can't seem to stop goofing off when they aren't supposed to be goofing off?" she asked. She had plenty of practice with people like dealing with her brothers.

"Is it because we are losing in the house cup from loss of to many points and people are making foolish decisions and not getting to class on time?" Isabelle questioned the head boy. It seemed like it was the best answer.

She glanced at the two stink bombers out of the corner of her eye. Her vote was to charm the stink over to them and let the rest of the house sit in peace. She didn't mention anything about the reason the meeting may have been held. After all, she was part of the reason they were in the negatives, though she'd go to the grave one day still declaring that it was all Tori Bunbury's fault.

Tori started wafting the disgusting smell away from her nose with a horrified expression. OMG. EWW. Who was responsible for THIS now?!

"UM." Tori stuck her arm in the air and waved it around. "We're here because we kind of SUCK at earning house points and ROCK at LOSING THEM. Like Sierra Greingoth did at the feast."

That's right, her worst enemy got a mention. Tori glared across the room at the other girl and threw in a few good-natured glares at those responsible for the dungbombs as well.

Then she crossed her legs in a huff and pinched her nose dramatically.

Slytherin has been losing points a lot." he said "and it wouldn't be that much if they came class a little earlier" he added.

He asked if they knew the main reason of this meeting. Easy. "Because we already started losing points, more than the other houses" he replied. Thanks to the students who cannot arrive early to class.

"Um are we having the meeting because of the fact we have the least amount of points of the four houses?" that was just sad "Oh and maybe to talk about how to earn more points?" the small girl asked politely. she also thought it might have been to meet fellow Slytherin students, but it didn't really seem like they were doing introductions..

Probably because we've lost points the first week of class even before having the chance to earn them because people don't know how to act and how to get to class on time Lysandra gave her opinion.

Right, he had to listen to what this meeting was all about, but wasn't it obvious. Like right in your face obvious. "Because certain people have misbehaved and lack the ability to do so without being caught." Seriously, if you don't want to get in trouble don't get CAUGHT...or just don't do it at all.

He was going to expire right then of starvation.

He focused just enough to hear the question, and offered an answer. "To congratulate ME and that other girl," He waved at that red head one, "Because we are the only ones who EARNED points." ... never mind that he'd technically lost points too, he was in positives wasn't he? Yes he was.

"... so now we eat?" Right? He grinned hopefully up at the older boy.

"Cause we need to lay and learn some ground rules-" she looked at their location"-Hence us meeting at the study tables instead of the comfy couches over there" She pointed in the direction where majority of the lounging took place in the common room.

They all seemed to be on the right track. Losing points, the behavior of the Slytherin house these last few days, ground rules, and ways to get their points (and pride) back. "Yes. This meeting is in fact about our loss of points and behavior. However, we'll be discussing ways of getting these points back as well as a few other topics. You will not be allowed to eat until we all have a full understanding of how to behave in our classes and as Slytherins." They couldn't change the past. Only the future. Standing up, she eyed everyone to make sure they didn't even think about eating as of yet. No, they had to wait.

Looking towards Sierra, Evelyn stood up and raised a brow, not at all amused. "Yes, you do." She herself may have not liked it, quite noticeable by the way she scrunched up her nose every now and then, but it was all in the learning process. "This, right here..." She gestured to the girl that had thrown the stinkbomb, as well as Aurora. "Is just an example of the behavior we are talking about. You all should learn right here and right now that your house, whether you like the people in it or not, is your family here at Hogwarts. One of you messes up, everyone in your house pays the price."

"However, just because we may have 'tumbled down the hill' a little, that does not mean we are so weak where we can't help eachother get back up and start climbing again with even more determination than before. We, as Slytherins, are not weak. Our scratches and bruises are what makes us stronger and united. Call it self-preservation or whatever you will, but we learn from our mistakes. Slytherin's history has shown that we are just as smart as Ravenclaws, just as loyal and hardworking as Hufflepuffs, and just as brave as Gryffindors." Without the stupidity part attached. "Perhaps even more so. Yet in these last few days, I don't even know where we stand. We have shown we are lower than the bottom of the list. Some of us are making poor decisions, and others are just standing idly by watching it all unfold in front of their very eyes or even joining in themselves. And that...that effects everyone's image here in Slytherin."

Taking a deep breath, she leaned against the table with her hands, looking around. "While I'd hate to see our chances at showing we are a great and amazing house go down the drain, we can't move forward until we realize how we can achieve doing so. So, what do you all think? How can we build our points back up and at the same time, show that the house of Salazar Slytherin is worthy of being respected as a house...as well as all of us individually?"
