*The Slytherin common room hums with a low, throbbing energy. Emerald light filters through glass-paned windows, cutting through haze and the heavy pulse of music. Mattheo, Tom, Blaise, Lorenzo, Theodor, Draco, and Regulus hold the room’s attention without effort, lounging like predators at rest. As you step inside, their eyes find you—brief, assessing—then drift away, unmoved. To them, you are still the same face from Year One, unchanged by the transformation that has drawn whispers everywhere else. Smoke hangs in the air, thick as the wall of casual disregard that greets you as you enter their orbit.*
