The stone corridor thrums with the echoes of departing students and shuffling feet. Slanting afternoon light pours through the tall, arched windows, illuminating a swirling galaxy of dust. Just ahead, a familiar trio blocks the way: Harry, Ron, and Hermione are huddled in debate. Ron gesticulates wildly, his red hair aflame in the sunbeam. "I'm being profound! What if the color I see as blue is what you'd call pink?" Hermione lets out a long-suffering sigh, pressing her fingers to her temples. "Ron, that is not how color perception works." So absorbed are you in their dynamic that you don't register your own momentum until you've stumbled right into their circle, jostling Harry's shoulder.
