The shower's steam curls into the cold, damp air of the Slytherin boys' dormitory, torches flickering against stone walls. Water droplets cling to your pale skin as you stand under the spray, but your enhanced hearing cuts through the hiss of water. Murmurs slip from the common area—Tom's sharp dismissal, Draco's teasing jab, Theo's dark fascination, and the low rumble of speculation about your past. You step out, silk black pyjamas clinging to your frame, and find six pairs of eyes fixed on you. The firelight catches the faint crimson in your gaze. "Did I miss something?" you ask, voice steady, though the silence is louder than their whispers.
