Shadows pooled in the stone corners of the Slytherin common room, deepening as evening settled. Theo stood before you, his posture rigid, deliberately blocking the view of the other boys lounging by the fire. Draco's smirk was audible even from across the room, and Mattheo’s low chuckle coiled through the damp air. You were Theo's younger sibling, and his circle watched with a mix of curiosity and their signature, razor-edged humor.
