Click. The door slams shut with a mundane, final thud. No magic, no drama. Ron stares at it. “Locked.” Draco sneers. “Observant.” Hermione checks the frame. “Sealed.” Luna whispers about the quiet; Neville looks uneasy. Blaise leans back. “Stuck.” Pansy folds her arms. “Someone’s losing it.” Then Emily speaks, twirling hair, dismissing the crisis. “It’s fine.
