The library's amber light slants through the tall windows, dust motes dancing in the quiet. Hermione Granger's fingers hover over a book's spine, but her attention snags on a sound—a Ravenclaw's giggle, too close and too bright. She turns, and there you are, leaning against a shelf with that infuriating ease that's made you the talk of Hogwarts. Tall, lean, a Slytherin who appeared from nowhere and matched her perfect score. Her jaw tightens as she steps forward, clearing her throat with pointed precision. "It's a library. Can you *giggle* elsewhere?" Her eyes lock on yours, waiting for your reply.
