HP Dawn Night

By the time we showed up at the dinner table, both Pencey and Blaise had returned to normal.

"Where did you go?" Pansy asked me sullenly, and I noticed she was still clutching a mail-order brochure.

"Teach Vio how to dance," Draco said sincerely to Pansy. "Please supervise me. I don't want to walk out with a pair of shoes full of holes."

In Pansy's almost burst of laughter, I clenched the knife and fork in my hand: "Draco, I don't mind changing my partner now."

"Please don't," Draco said seriously, "I don't want you to harm another innocent boy."

Now even Blaise couldn't help showing a little smile.I tore off the scarf that was already wet with snow:

"Have you both found a partner?"

"A girl from Durmstrang."

"A gentleman from Beauxbatons."

I couldn't help but put on a skeptical look: "Could it be that the two of you make an appointment every time?"

Pan Xipi looked at me with a non-smiling smile: "You think too much." She accidentally caught Blaise's gaze, and quickly moved away.

News of the Yule Ball was passed around the table frantically that evening.Some solid sources suggest that Dumbledore ordered the Weird Sisters - for those of us who grew up listening to WWN (Wizard Radio Network), the Weird Sisters are certainly the most famous musical group we know.

There are also some less reliable news, such as Dumbledore buying [-] barrels of flavored mead from the Three Broomsticks.

In the next week, the school became more lively and noisy day by day.Hogwarts is decorated with lights and it seems everyone has decided to show the castle at its best this Christmas.The banisters of the marble staircase are covered with never-melting icicles, and the traditional twelve Christmas trees in the auditorium are adorned with baubles of all kinds—glittering hollies, Color-changing ribbons, gold and silver pine cones, and, most incredible of all, live golden owls that keep chirping.

Even the armor is enchanted to start singing Christmas carols whenever anyone walks by.The only one who might be unhappy is Filch, the caretaker, who has to keep an eye on Peeves, who often hides in his armor and sings Christmas carols with altered lyrics.

Even some teachers have begun to kindly incorporate Christmas spirit into the classroom.For example, Professor Flitwick, he noticed that his classmates were absent-minded, so he simply stopped lecturing, and even acquiesced in our playing games in class.But he is just an example after all.Professor Binns still insists on letting us float and sink in the ocean of the history of magic, while Professor McGonagall and Moody will lecture until the last minute before the end of get out of class.The toughest professor was probably my dad, and from his attitude, I figured he'd rather adopt Potter as a godson than let us play games in Potions class.He even looked sullenly at the class and told us that we would be testing our antidote in the last class of the term.

But the Slytherins apparently didn't care much about the Headmaster's threats - after all, his main target was always poor Potter (and sometimes Weasley).

"Hmm...it doesn't look like any of us are working too hard, are we?" Pansy said, reclining comfortably on the sofa in the lounge.

"Look up in the lounge, I thought I'd be off tomorrow." I'm building a castle out of a deck of crackling cards while Draco and Blaise are playing wizard chess.

"There are still a few days until the end of this semester." Draco said lazily.

He is right.

Final exams flew by like a gust of wind, and overnight we had the Christmas break.

Although the teachers assigned a lot of homework to the fourth grade students, this did not hinder our entertainment in the slightest.In fact, once finals are over, most of us don't have much time for homework.

Pansy flipped through her "Prom Guidebook" all day long, but couldn't decide on the hairstyle and makeup she would wear that day.Influenced by her, I also dug out the prom equipment that I had already prepared.

Snow fell heavily on the castle and grounds.A light blue carriage like Beauxbatons looked like a great frosted pumpkin in winter.The frosted gingerbread house next to it was Hagrid's log cabin.The sides of the Durmstrang ship were covered with ice and turned smooth, and the rigging was covered with hoarfrost.

"I've noticed that the variety of dishes has increased recently." Pansy enjoyed her portion of stew with great interest.And I was thinking about which pudding would be better to eat first.

"Fortunately, I have prepared a weight-loss potion, otherwise I must have gained weight recently." When I started to eat pudding, Daphne and Birster cast envious glances at me at the same time, especially Daphne—in order to keep in shape , she is on a diet recently.

"Who's your dancing partner?" Pansy asked casually.

Burst's face sank slightly.Daphne hastened to explain, "Uh...my partner is Terry Boot, and Millicent might...may not be going to Christmas—"

It was Bostrode who interrupted her. She slammed the knife and fork onto the plate, then stood up without a word, and left the auditorium without looking back.Daphne stopped talking in embarrassment, hesitating whether she should catch up.At this moment, everyone who was disturbed by the sound cast curious eyes from all directions, and Daphne's face slowly turned red.After a while, she jumped up from her seat, and we all clearly saw tears in her eyes, but she tried her best not to let them fall.

Then, like Burster, she left the auditorium.

The students at the Slytherin table looked at each other.Astoria, who was sitting closest to us—her seat is next to Bostrode—was the first to react. She smiled sweetly and explained to us:

"It's okay, Daphne is not in a good mood recently, so..."

"Who would believe it?" Pansy whispered to the three of us when everyone ignored the unhappiness just now and resumed the meal, "When did Astoria and Daphne get so close?"

"Oh, on one hand, they seem to have always been so close."

As dinner drew to a close, Pansy suggested that we go back to the common room later to work on the Yule Ball.Draco and Blaise didn't understand why we were spending so much time preparing.

"You don't understand." Pansy explained fiercely, "You must know that the Yule Ball may be our only chance to surprise the audience at Hogwarts."

"That's right," I echoed, "Your dresses and robes are roughly the same, but girls are different."

"The prom is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to fight for beauty." Pan Xi taught them earnestly, "I just noticed that there are many good-looking girls in other colleges, and we don't want to lose out in front of them."

"We've all known you for so many years," Blaise objected. "No matter how much makeup you put on, we can look calm."

Pan Xi took a deep breath: "Then you just wait and see, Lumpy. I really don't know where your usual tricks to please girls have gone."

"Oh, well, when we were dating, they both wore Hogwarts school robes, and there was no big difference." Blaise explained falsely.

"Shut up!--"

"I'm assuming you should all go back to the lounge by now instead of letting someone else watch the joke in the foyer." A soft voice interrupted Pansy's about to blurt out a growl.

Dad appeared behind us at some point: "You stay here, Vio."

"My partner is—"

"I just suddenly remembered that there is one more thing I need to remind you." Dad coughed and looked around unnecessarily to see if there was anyone around, "Remember to wear more clothes on the day of the dance, the weather will be colder."

Why are you so embarrassed?I looked at my father looking uncomfortable.As far as I know, the dance is not held outdoors.

"I see." In any case, nodding is always right.

"Go back," Dad issued the order to evict the guests. "Miss Parkinson must talk to you by candlelight and plan the Christmas ball."

"Okay." As long as you know, why say it.

On Christmas morning, I was woken up by a box: "Pansy!"

"Merry Christmas. Opening presents," she told me cheerfully.

"Merry Christmas." I was still drowsy, got up in a daze, and saw the gifts piled up at the foot of the bed at a glance, "Great."

In view of the detente between my relationship with Daphne this year, I have two more gifts--Daphne's and Burst's.They all gave me candy.I gave them chocolate.

"You really gave me the latest fragrance!" Pansy opened my box, and then beamed with joy.

"It's a first shipment from England," I said. "What did you send me?—a pair of brooches?"

"That's for a special purpose," Pansy explained triumphantly. "You keep one and give the other to someone. Suppose one of you has the other's name in your head, and the other's brooch It'll get hot. Assuming you both carry brooches, it's a surefire way to test your feelings."

"Accepted, thank you." I took out the brooch and put it in the drawer of the bedside table.

Dad gave me a copy of "Career Navigation". I flipped through it and found that this book is very comprehensive and very useful.After all, we will start career planning next year.

My mother gave me magic beauty tools, which she said in an accompanying letter she thought I was old enough to use.And assure me that these products are definitely much better than what can be bought in the market, and will never be out of stock.

In the rare case that Brace's gift didn't match Pansy's, he gave me a crystal ball.And attached the instructions, it turns out that this crystal ball can tell you the deepest memory hidden in your heart, just hold it in your hand.

I looked at Blaise's and Pansy's presents and had to admit that their Christmas presents were, after all, similar.

But Draco's gift wasn't among them.

"Maybe he's going to give it to you himself later." Pansy urged me to get up.We didn't see the boys in the foyer until we got to the auditorium.

"Draco, where's my Christmas present?" I sat down across from him.Blaise wasn't surprised to hear what I said.And Draco cleared his throat:

"I'll give it to you at the dance tonight."

"I'm going to go back to the lounge to study it later. Thank you for the gift, Blaise, it's very interesting." I said unhappy.

"Thank you." Blaise smiled brightly at me, "Your gift is also very much to my liking."

That's right.I gave Blaise a copy of Twelve Ways to Bewitch a Witch.

"The best is always in the end." Draco said dissatisfied.

We spent almost the whole morning in the lounge, admiring the gifts we received with our classmates.Then chat, play chess, play cards.At noon, we returned to the Great Hall for a sumptuous lunch of a hundred turkeys, a heap of Christmas pudding and mountains of Cribbage wizard biscuits.

As soon as lunch was over, Pansy hurried me back to the lounge.Draco and Blaise, who had planned to go for a walk on the grounds, were genuinely surprised that we were going back.

"You guys need an afternoon to get dressed?"

"We'll need an afternoon to get dressed," Pansy replied.

"But what if you meet Bulstrode in the dormitory?" I asked a potential question.Pansy looked at me, dumbfounded.

Fortunately, neither Boster nor Daphne was in the dormitory.

The author has something to say:

I thought I could get to the point quickly, but it turned out that I had to wait until the next chapter

A girl said that she wanted to see the copywriting (?) of Brother Tian's colleagues, well, maybe tomorrow.watch out

====================================================================== =============

Received a comment and am posting my personal thoughts here.

The game "HP Slytherin" on Orange Light must have been played by many Kazakhstan fans. Some people asked me if it was not authorized by the author, so I will briefly say a few points:

[1. The sentences in the article are all original and original works of HP; plots such as "The professor is Xiaolong's godfather" should not appear in this article?

2. This article is original and not adapted.I have indeed played "Slytherin", and I have indicated in a previous reply/author's words that "Slytherin" gave birth to this article, but again, it is not an adaptation.

3. Forgive me for the similarities in some plots, after all, there are only a few similar stalks in humanities.Assuming that you really think this article is suspected of plagiarism, you might as well make a comparison chart and send it to me.If it is really necessary, I will edit the text.But again, it is based on your confirmation.Otherwise, please respect the achievements of my writing. 】

Above is my reply to the comment.

Of course, I know that this article has a lot of bugs, and it has also hit a lot of fan minefields.Many of these settings are very common among Siyuan colleagues.However, with the progress of the plot, I think this article should be gradually taking shape, and it is more likely to follow my thinking. In fact, I am trying to make it out of some limitations, but it seems that it is not successful now.

It seems that all doujin have similarities, and all doujin are plagiarizing the original?But one thing is very important. Before there is no conclusive comparison and evidence, isn't it a bit subtle to make a bad accusation based on some plots?

So I say so much nonsense just to express a point of view: I respect your point of view, please also respect my work.

Seems like a bit of an overkill?Any author will feel troubled by such a statement, right?

And, I'll finish this post anyway, and it won't be my only HP fanfic.

Finally, thank you for all your criticism and encouragement, I will work hard ^_^

I love you (づ￣3￣)づ
