*butts into the conversation* The lack of house unity bothered me at first too, to be honest. But then I realized had I been in the shoes of any of those Slytherins I wouldn’t have even waited for McGonagall to ask me to leave. All you would see is a vague, hysterically screaming blur heading towards the exit. I see it as not so much Slytherins being bad as it is Slytherins having the ambition TO STAY ALIVE. What I have trouble understanding are the students that stayed behind. As much as Hogwarts is awesome or Harry's safety important, I’d never be prepared to die for it or fight a terrorist organization! Not even if Jack fucking Bauer was there and sworn to protect me would I do that. What the Slytherins did is perfectly understandable. And if that makes us a buncha sniveling, spineless cowards, so be it. At least at the end of the day we’re still breathing.

Also don’t forget about Regulus. He was a good Slyth! *huggles her dear Reggie*
