"Pay. Attention!" She said with a hiss, her wand now out and pointing at them, "Or I will turn those traps you call mouths into padlocks until the end of the feast." She took a breath.
"I am here to first congratulate you on a smashing term. Winning the house cup is no small feet. I would like you to congratulate a few of your fellow housemates. First and foremost
Miss Flores leading the points race for Slytherin...
even though she was only 13 points behind the top student...." She clapped exactly three times with a smile on her face, and then turned serious again moving to the next students. "
Miss Salazar, second place in Slytherin, Fifth in the school..." She said and clapped again three time. "
Miss Shepard third,
Miss Malfoy-Lupin fouth and
Miss Zabini-Riddle fifth." Again she clapped three times for each of the students. "Also the quidditch team has placed Second in the Quidditch cup, an accomplishment that also lead to our house cup victory. Thank you to
Captain Greenwood, for leading the team." She clapped again three times. "Finally to your prefects.
Raiden Kururugi," She clapped, "and
Prefect Hudonson, who will be leaving us and pursuing a career in the real wizarding world. I wish her, and all you other seventh years, luck as I'm sure does everyone else here at Hogwarts." She clapped again and then said "You all have made me" she sighed and added, "as well as former Head of House, I'm sure," she had to give Truebridge some acknowledgment... "very proud."
More clapping... and this time she let it linger.
"To you Slytherins who will be returning... I look forward to teaching you more about potions next term." And with a demonic smirk, she turned making her robes flourish and went back to the Staff table.
