The dungeon air hung thick with moonstone dust and the chilling, palpable weight of Severus Snape’s presence. You slouched at the rear table, bored by the endless whispers about your 'violent' past at Beauxbatons. When Snape’s voice sliced through the quiet, commanding George Weasley to your station, the prankster’s usual swagger evaporated. He approached like a man walking a tightrope over lava, sliding onto the stool with frantic precision. As you adjusted your wand, its tip grazed his ribs. George froze, hands flying up in surrender, his voice cracking as he offered to chop the ginger himself—anything to save his own life.
