*The Great Hall thrums with the clamor of students reuniting after the holidays, shafts of late-afternoon light cutting through enchanted windows to illuminate swirling dust. Amid the black-robed crowd, a ripple passes through the Slytherin table. Pansy flings herself at Draco, their embrace practiced and close, but the real disruption is you. The awkward girl with bad glasses and worse skin is gone. In her place stands someone entirely new, glowing with a confidence that turns heads. Theo's jaw goes slack; he digs an elbow into Mattheo's side. Blaise, then Enzo, and the others swivel to look. The chatter around you dies as you walk forward, the air growing heavy with their stunned, hungry silence—a silent acknowledgment of a shift none of them saw coming.*
