Dressed as a Hogwarts portrait

On Christmas night, the great hall of Hogwarts Castle is almost a world of crystal clear crystal, all the walls of the hall are covered with silver shimmering frost, hundreds of mistletoe garlands and ivy are intertwined in the star-shaped On the black ceiling, there are countless ice sculptures made by magic and false snowflakes falling all over the sky, as well as cedar trees covered with glittering ornaments, and thousands of white ice blue ribbons are pulled up and hung in the air. The students at the prom were all wearing various dresses, or they were looking for a dance partner, or they were looking at each other. Those people wrapped in exquisite silk or fur had a kind of strange familiarity, which was obviously very novel. He wears the same color school uniform and robes in all seasons, and at most wears a few ordinary clothes during the holidays. Looking at it now, Harry feels that many people he is familiar with now don't know him at all.Especially those girls, combed their hair meticulously, inserted shiny and beautiful hair accessories, wrapped in long skirts, and added those flowers and jewelry, how could they look like they were eating in the hall at noon?

"Hi."

Harry and Ron's dance partner came, wearing a traditional Indian sari, sisters Patil, whose forehead ornaments and earrings were as beautiful as green peacock feathers, they finally found their dance partner almost the day before the ball started.Parvati walked towards Harry, different from Harry's uneasiness and looking around, she looked very happy, but Padma on the other side looked at Ron's dark red suede robe with a bit of astonishment. The lace looked jagged and old as if it were a piece of drapery.

"You... you dress so traditionally."

Padma Patil frowned, watching her sister and Harry walk over there.

The warrior and his partner are going to dance the opening dance.

"Hello!"

Ron was absent-minded in greeting, but suddenly stopped, because Fleur and his dance partner just walked past him. She held her white and elegant neck like a swan high, and the long dress made of silver-gray fabric made her figure beautiful and soft. , the dance partner next to her seemed to be a senior Ravenclaw, and when they were far away, Ron came back to his senses in frustration: "Where's Hermione?" Why didn't you see her?Could it be that she really didn't find a dance partner and hid?

"Can you think about your dance partner?" Padma seemed particularly dissatisfied, "Or say something interesting."

"Ah... well, did you know that Aerys invited Harry?"

"Iris?" Padma was finally a little surprised, she glanced suspiciously, and then said, "But Harry didn't agree, why?"

"I don't know!" Ron spread his hands flatly, "I saw them talking, but I didn't hear what they said."

I didn't understand what they were saying, and I heard Harry himself say about the invitation later.

Dance with a basilisk, Merlin, who will say yes?

"Then who is she looking for?" Padma was very curious. "She is very short, even if she stands with Harry, it is barely appropriate. If she is looking for someone from a senior class, it may be difficult to dance."

Ron shrugged.

They have already found their seats in the hall. Madame Maxime is wearing a low-cut pearl-colored evening dress and a gemstone necklace around her neck. Everyone who sees her has the urge to contort her expression. Hagrid, in a big bow tie, was eyeing her furtively as he tried to gather flowers into his collar.Karkaroff still had a gloomy face. Dumbledore was wearing a white robe with dark patterns of snowflakes, which stunned many students. They tried desperately to confirm that this normally dressed old man was the headmaster.Obviously their expressions entertained many professors and Dumbledore himself. He stood on the steps and applauded smilingly.

Because of the dance party, there were only white round tables in the corners of the hall. Now everyone stood in two rows and waited for the protagonist of the dance tonight, the Triwizard Tournament players and their dance partners to enter the arena.

It was in the order in which the parchments were thrown out by the Goblet of Fire. Fleur proudly put her hand on her partner's arm, and Davis, Ravenclaw's Quidditch captain, who was next to her, obviously accepted countless envy and envy. Looking around, he seemed nervous and in a trance, as if he hadn't recovered from the excitement of being Fu Rong's partner.

Then there was Krum in a gorgeous gown with a fur collar, and next to him was a girl in a flowing dress with her hair pulled up high. She was very beautiful, but her eyes and demeanor were familiar.

She was smiling, as if she was also nervous, and her body maintained an elegant posture, but it seemed to be stiff and stiff. Finally, someone in the crowd recognized her, and a burst of unbelievable whispers erupted.

"Hi Ron, Padma."

She whispered hello.

Finally everyone recognized it.

"Hermione?!"

Ron opened his mouth in a daze, and let out a strange low cry:

"She doesn't look like Hermione at all!"

In the next second, everyone didn't care about how Hermione became Krum's dance partner, and why Krum chose the Gryffindor Activity Library, which was so entangled in the amazing inside story, because everyone opened their mouths wide, Including the professors on the steps, they all stared blankly at Iris who had just entered.

The little girl's pale to gloomy face was glowing with pearly luster. There was no doubt that she had used a little magic similar to "radiance". , with honey-colored lips, it was as if suddenly his eyes lit up, and his face, which had never been noticed except childishness, became beautiful and delicate.

Her big pale yellow eyes looked forward nervously. The dark silver dress with complicated bowknot and lace on the skirt made her feel like a piece of exquisite cake. Her little hands were clutching the corner of the dress nervously, which was very unfortunate. Because of the prom, she was still wearing a pair of pink high-heeled shoes inlaid with pearls on her feet, and she didn't dare to move her whole body casually, as if she had just been petrified by herself. The right hand fell on the Duke of Slytherin beside her.

The moment his eyes fell, it seemed that the ice sculptures and crystals in the entire hall had become nothingness. Under the penetrating brilliance, the ivory white skin and dark green pupils were so noble and elegant that it took one's breath away.Gorgeous dark green robes, the style favored by nobles in the Middle Ages. In fact, the clothes Salazar is wearing today are the same as his usual clothes, even the position of the turquoise brooch has not changed. What do you think, it's just that when everyone is wearing gorgeous dresses and dressing up very confidently, their every move and even their expressions make people want to step back involuntarily.

Salazar didn't take a look around, he definitely wasn't interested in such a small dance, and all he thought about recently was Lingcha.They taught the little girl to dance for half a month, and it was okay. But today, because of wearing high heels, Iris was too scared to move and was seriously unbalanced. Feeling that Iris's body was getting stiffer and stiffer, he stretched out his hand to comfort her. Touched her forehead.

Feeling the soothing warmth of her master, Aerys not only didn't relax, but wanted to cry even more.

She blinked pitifully at Salazar.

"good."

After discovering that his pet had a tendency to petrify, Salazar still maintained a cold expression and comforted him in a low voice.

Ron gasped for air very loudly. He saw Harry and Parvati coming from behind. Harry seemed to be trying his best not to fall, but Parvati seemed to be enjoying himself. She turned to everyone present. They all smiled, and pointed out Harry's direction and posture with their arms forcefully. Although everyone's eyes were attracted by Professor Aerys and Professor Nyx in front of them, this did not prevent Harry from feeling like It was a dog or a dolphin performing in the circus. He looked at the backs of Iris and Slytherin, and his expression twisted again. Iris was barely as tall as her classmates wearing high-heeled shoes. , but I don’t know why Slytherin looks like 15 years old, so looking at it from a distance, it doesn’t seem that the difference is too big——Harry was thinking wildly, and he heard that Professor Flitwick was already conducting the music.

They have reached the center of the hall, and everyone is watching them.

Harry put his arms around Parvati's arms in a panic, ready to dance.

"Hold me around the waist, Harry!"

"what?"

"my waist!"

The music had already started, Harry took a few steps in a hurry, not on the beat at all, and then suddenly found that there was no place to put his right hand, and then thought of putting it on Parvati's waist, he felt a little more at ease, and then a man in a cheongsam The shadow flashed across his line of sight.

It was Cho Chang, and she was standing with her partner, Digory, watching them dance.

Harry, who was in a panic, stepped on Parvati's right foot, and was so shocked that he didn't know how to apologize, but suddenly found that Parvati didn't feel it at all, and his eyes were staring directly behind him.

Harry was very strange, he noticed that all the students on the opposite side were looking behind him.

Turning around, Harry finally knew who they were looking at after switching places.

They don't dance complicated dance steps, and the requirements are not high. As long as they are balanced and cooperate with each other, they can basically dance very well. Hermione and Krum dance well, and Davis is obviously very good at Fleur. Abnormal danced very rigidly, Fu Rong's face was flushed with anger, in ballroom dancing, no matter how good the female partner is, she can't change the overall coordination. Iris, who is silly and doesn't know anything, dances beautifully.

Every step of Salazar is graceful and perfect, because it is just right, because of the height, Iris is a little smaller to keep up with the steps, but it just forms a perfect inner arc. She hugged her master's arm, and she was still stiff at first. She couldn't even turn around, but soon found that the master's hand was on her waist, supporting her very strongly. Even if she wanted to fall, it was not so easy. Now she was erratic when turning around, step by step, The urge to fall with every step, but before she lost her balance, Salazar had led her to another position.

The little girl felt that she was always in a state of falling, but in the eyes of others, she was extremely light and smooth.The layer upon layer of lace bowknot bubble skirt was so light and fluffy that it seemed that it was going to fly, almost everyone's eyes were amazed and praised.Especially the professors at Hogwarts, they almost went to the ground to find their chins and eyeballs.

——That is a basilisk that can wrestle even when walking on flat ground!

The Duke of Slytherin, is the founder of Hogwarts really amazing?Merlin!
