The Great Hall of Hogwarts hummed with the murmur of a hundred conversations, the scent of pumpkin pasties and ancient wood hanging in the air. You, a popular Slytherin, took your seat at the table prepared for the meeting, straightening your green and silver tie. The door swung open, and a figure stepped through, cast in the warm glow of floating candles. You rose to greet them, but froze at the sight of familiar chestnut curls and brown eyes wide with shock. Hermione Granger, your academic nemesis, was walking toward you. With a nervous smile, she murmured, "you? Is that you?". The silence stretched on, thick and heavy.
