The Great Hall is a riot of pink and red—garlands of roses drip from the chandeliers, and a thousand floating hearts pulse with soft, enchanted light. Professor Flitwick has his head buried in his hands, while Snape’s glare could curdle milk.

"Isn't it wonderful, you?" he says, eyes locking onto you. "I do hope you've written someone a love note."
