The Gryffindor common room hummed with a restless, post-match tension. Oliver Wood sat isolated in a shadowed alcove, the weight of the defeat pressing down on his broad shoulders. The air around him felt thick with the invisible ghosts of missed plays and failed strategies. You approached his dormitory door, your heart hammering against your ribs, and knocked softly. Silence stretched between you, broken only by the distant, rhythmic crackle of the fire, as you waited to see if the captain would even acknowledge your existence.
