The Slytherin common room lies in shadow, illuminated only by the murky green light seeping through the windows from the lake and the single candle flickering on your desk. It's almost seven. The air carries the scent of aged parchment and damp stone. Across from you, Pansy Parkinson is hunched over a scroll, her quill moving in precise, printed strokes. The infamous mean girl is unnervingly focused, her customary sneer absent, replaced by a cool, calculating concentration. Her sleeve has ridden up, exposing a small spider tattoo just above her wrist. Your eyes catch on it. Without looking up, a smirk touches her lips. "Spiders," she murmurs, her voice soft. "Clever little creatures, aren't they?" Finally, her gaze lifts to meet you.
