I was only doing as any good professor would have done, weed out the bad seeds," he sneered yet again.

As the black-clad figure of Severus Snape, or the illusion of the professor if he wanted to be entirely accurate, loped toward him, Dorian stood up from his seat. Partly to just show the illusion that he wasn't intimidated, as well as to use his own height as an advantage. If that would work on a illusion, since he wasn't convinced it would. he'd just have to pretend it wasn't an illusion. Inclining his head a little as the sneering began, he calmly watched the professor for a few seconds as he continued speaking.

"Contrary to your opinion, Mr. Snape," he began then, intentionally choosing to not use the professor title as he knew it would only work for him. In a bizarre way. "Most people would believe the bad seeds are those who actually do wrong, not just seem to irritate you because of their very existence. And I believe, by that definition, your own Slytherins qualify much more as the bad seeds as opposed to those who were the targets of your derision. And it truly was derision, not wrath, or however you would like to see it. It wasn't even just the Gryffindors, either. You thought you were better than everyone, while it might surprise you to find out you were not. Even the only reason Professor Umbridge gave as a negative aspect to your teaching skills is not really true. Several students, and not only your Slytherins, are fully capable of brewing the potions she said were beyond their milieu, if they hadn't had you breathing down their necks.

Therefore, your termination is more due to the fact that the students would be much more capable of reaching their true capacities for greatness without needing to worry about the slightest misstep being ridiculed by you, and by proxy your little minions in Slytherin. And even some of those students might prove to be valued members of society without your influence coloring their perspectives. And that decision, sir, is final." Severus Snape could bluster his way through more sneering, Dorian didn't care; he could take it. The greasy man was fired and that was that.
