AFTERMATH: October 18
This morning, all students wake up to see that their Head of House is present at the house campground. Ms. Rhee, Mr. Hightower, Mr. Merrill and Ms. Vector gather their prefects to get everyone out and do another head count. (Merrill never left since last night, of course, and is still wearing his pajamas throughout this whole process.) They officially determine that everyone is accounted for, and give thanks to all the prefects who acted quickly last night, and pardons for all the students who stayed in a different house overnight. Everyone is taken to the lodge for breakfast, no exceptions.
During breakfast, Headmistress Bloom stands up to make a speech about safety and student responsibility, emphasizing how unacceptable it is to threaten your peers, even for a "joke." Most pertinently, she emphasizes that curfew is being strictly enforced until further notice. Prefects must report immediately when their nightly head counts fall short. Anyone caught outside their campground after curfew is getting detention, no questions, and if it happens more than once, their parents will be contacted. Also, whether "certain actions" in the past week have been due to student pranks or something else (Bloom does not elaborate on the "something else," although she does pause), there will be a buddy system instated for at least the rest of the month. If you go anywhere outside of the lodge or your house campground, you must have at least one other person accompany you. No one will be allowed to leave the lodge without a buddy. And the Grotto, as ever, is forbidden.
After students are given leave to go to class, juniors in History of Magic notice that Reid Wainwright is absent this morning. Some might have spotted him leaving the lodge after breakfast when one of his roommates dragged him out, and also the both of them returning some time later, heading straight for Ms. Vector's office on the main floor. Sylvester Stoker goes in alone to speak to his Head of House, and the yelling which ensues is overheard by several freshmen.
By lunchtime, the rumours are all over the school. Sy Stoker was seen entering Vector's office carrying a bundled black robe and a plastic knife, and notoriously unforgiving Vector laid down the law. Being rumours, the details are unclear. Sy is reportedly either a) expelled, b) being temporarily suspended from the school, c) still here, but banned from all of his extracurriculars, including Quidditch, d) has detention until the end of time, or e) just fine, because it's Sylvester Stoker and he gets away with everything.
Sy is absent from his morning Artificing session, and also for lunch. Students may notice that a few teachers are absent during lunch as well, most notably Mrs. Bloom and all the Heads of House.
