Headmaster didn’t like the mind control president being in charge as he a “normal” couldn’t get any proof to stop him. This super kid is a “normal” in the super rankings and he is having problems with one similar to the Headmaster had against the mind control president (expect their kids doing kid pranks).
which is more than is done at most schools. at least you’re allowed to get revenge at praetorian academy. At most schools, if you don’t just take it, YOU get into trouble.
Not sure where you go to school, but where I’m from, that kind of attitude has been decisively squished out in the last 10-15 years. The idea that the only two responses to bullying are (a) shut up and take it or (b) fight back, is definitely NOT an up-to-date view of positive schooling.

And I’ll bet we’ve just found someone who has no idea how bullying evolves to disguise itself and has a school where bullying still flourishes in new and different forms.
I think it more means he’s suffered mind control at least once…the only known case being when he mooned instructors so it was obvious…the other times he might have done something and not remembered afterwards.
It’s an entire school full of Slytherins, run by a US Senator. But I repeat myself.
Of course, learning to navigate a crowd of childish, bullying slimeballs is excellent training for politics.

Kids being kids, I see. Since there are no more inkwells, they need to improvise.

Bet the Headmaster says it’s HIS fault.

No, the headmaster is going to ask when he is going to enact retribution

Good Point.

I wonder how often I’m going to be surprised by what various characters’ outfits look like in color.

OOOoooooOOOoohh! Good point! I bet some of these heros are wearing funky purples or pinks and we never even noticed.

This kid shall only grow up to be a balanced and stable individual as long as he stays at Praetorian Academy, I can tell.

I hate the other students already…. These are supposed to be future “Heroes”? I can see the walking PR disasters waiting to happen.

I think they’re more likely to be the mooks of the future.
That and breeding stock for the research taking place…
Prairie Son
These kids are being groomed to be the Super-Mooks and Underbosses of the future. As such, they must learn early that grief rolls downhill.

Praetorian Academy, where if you’re bullied and alone…
… the teachers tell you to find ways of getting revenge, instead of helping you out or help you to find friends to support you.

The way he says “At least one instance” – are there other times where this student has mooned instructors, but it might not have been mind control?

To be fair, the second mooning incident may have been a clever attempt to blame it on mind control.
