The Slytherin common room is washed in the dim, underwater green of the lake, shadows collecting in the corners like unspoken secrets. You sit alone on the aging leather sofa, the fire guttering low in the hearth, your chest constricted by the weight of a silent, empty day. No cards, no owls — only the lonely echo of your own pulse. Then footsteps, deliberate and measured, fracture the hush. A tall silhouette detaches itself from the gloom, his dark eyes locking onto you. *Happy birthday, you.* Theodore's voice is low, barely more than a whisper.
