*is aghast*

Your resignation? What on earth do you mean? Are you suggesting you no longer wish to be Professor of Potions, Professor Snape?

*does not take well to its owner being impliedly insulted*

I cannot dare to fathom what the Board of Governors has in mind, Professor Snape, and I would think after these many years you would know better than to do so, as well. However, I assure you that Godric Gryffindor has been advised to acquaint himself with current procedures and I have absolutely no doubt that he will do so.

*voice getting considerably louder* I further assure you that he is, perhaps, the finest teacher of any kind, in any subject, that this school has ever had!

I do not think so, I know so, Professor.

*sits looking at Snape with vague annoyance*

No, I don't believe I have any further business with you at the moment, Professor Snape.

Please do take your witnesses with you when you leave. I'm afraid we've come dangerously close to waking the Headmistress.

Well, that would be between you and Professor Gryffindor, of course.

*is very happy to be calling Godric Professor, finally*

However, as you are acquainted with every single one of the rules here at Hogwarts, I'm sure you remember that there is no killing of any kind allowed on the premises, ever.

*glares back*

Good night to you, Professor.
