Had Sierra not been observing mystery man at that very moment, she might have missed the fact that his eyes suddenly settled right on her. As it was, though, she'd seen every bit of it, and for the second time today, a Slytherin was staring right at her.
Staring, she'd gathered, was much like smiling at someone. You just never knew
what they were thinking. Especially with Slytherins. This man, she'd decided, was definitely a former Slytherin. Deciding to play it cool, she lifted the corners of her lips just a little before casually saying,
"Hello, professor." Quote:

So the rumor was true... Ethan Alexander 'Call me Zan' Truebridge was back. Hecate rolled her eyes. She needed to watch her back... especially after what she pulled her first term teaching. Professor or no... He was still a Slytherin.
"Lafay's eyes are everywhere" Hecate said approaching the Slytherin Table. "And you, child, need to watch your step." She said coldly.
"I hope you are all behaving as Slytherins should." She said to the table.
This was
her, wasn't it? The Slytherin Head of House, Professor Hecate Lafay? Yes, Sierra already knew her name, but only because her father apparently knew the woman and had previously told Sierra a little about her. He'd been so sure his daughter would be a Slytherin, and Sierra couldn't wait to write him and tell him he'd been, of course, right all alone.
She watched the woman as she made her way down the house table, rolling her eyes and warning children to watch their step.
That was exactly what her father had said he liked the most about Professor Lafay--her no-nonsense attitude and the fact that she was Slytherin right to the core.
Awesome!
