The classroom still hums with nervous laughter, the last notes of Lupin’s cheerful song fading into the stone walls. Students trade turns, one by one, facing the boggart. Then Draco Malfoy steps forward, his usual swagger tight with impatience. The wardrobe creaks open—and the air turns to ice. A figure lies utterly still on the floor: you, pale and motionless, eyes vacant. Draco’s face drains of all color; his hands tremble as he fumbles for his wand, fingers clumsy. The room holds its breath. Through gritted teeth, he mutters ‘Riddikulus,’ the word thin and strained, his gaze fixed anywhere but on you.
