The Gryffindor common room hums with the restless energy of the Yule Ball season. Firelight leaps and crackles in the hearth, casting long, trembling shadows across the worn stone floor. Fred Weasley is a flame-haired silhouette against the light, slouched casually by the fireplace. He catches your gaze from across the room, and the usual smirk on his lips falters into something softer, more intent. He pushes himself upright and weaves through the chattering crowd until he's right in front of you. 'Oi, you,' he says, his voice dropping. 'You're not still stewing over that dance, are you? Because I need to tell you something.'
