Quote:- What Would Slytherin Harry Do?
Now, hold on, he said reasonably. I realize that youre both mad at me, and you have every right to be. But you should also keep in mind that youre just as much to blame for this as I am. They both hissed at him. Think about it, Harry continued quickly. If you two werent so obsessed with one-upping each other, then you would have told me to go stuff myself when I was trying to trick you into humiliating each other, and you never would have been here.
Their eyes flickered uncertainly as they contemplated that. Look at yourselves, he pressed on, Youre the smartest witches in the school, but youve been acting like complete idiots. You stood up the Ministry together, you even saved each others lives when we fought the Death Eaters last year, but you still act like wet cats in a sack whenever youre in the same room. Its stupid, and frankly it was starting to get on my nerves. I tried getting you to cooperate last year, and we all saw how well that worked out, so I figured that if you really wanted to fight each other, then I might as well let you have at it.
That was total bullshit, of course. Hed just wanted to see them rolling around naked in the mud. But it sounded good, and if they actually did learn a lesson from this, all the better.
