In the dungeons began the first day of potion class. The dungeons were chilly and silent, would have been scary without pickled animals hanging in glass jars all around the walls. Like Professor Flitwick Professor Snape began the class with attendance and stopped at Harry's name mocking Harry as a "new-celebrity." Draco Malfoy and his friends Crabbe and Goyle giggled.
