Potioncat:
It's really hard to tell.  No, we never see any real communication 
at all.  We also have no idea of what we aren't seeing... 

But a couple of things have sort of jumped out recently. I don't 
know what they mean.

In PoA, (but I don't remember which chapter, it was the one I was 
reading on the plane if that helps) the wording is something along 
the lines of "Draco was very subdued after the Quidditch game." 
There's one episode where the Slytherin Team Captain is yelling at 
Draco (meaning Draco doesn't have special priviledges within the 
House) and when Draco first shows off the Potter stinks badge, he 
appears to be hiding it from Snape.

I think, from the House points alone and that Slytherin won the 
House Cup for so many years, there is somehting to Slyherin House 
that we don't see. 

But, if you think about it, we don't see McGonagall interacting very 
much with her House either.

Potioncat again wondering what she just said.
