The door closed with a soft click and then:
“What the hell was that!?” Karen exploded, hands thrown open in disbelief, as if she had just watched a fire start out of nowhere.
“You’re self-sabotaging, Lily!” Mary said immediately, still staring at the door. “You stomped on ...

And even though I liked being home, seeing my parents, Petunia (more or less), and sleeping without having to wake up at six in the morning, a big part of me wanted to go back.

Ryan leaned back in his chair and exhaled slowly, as if his soul had been held in suspension all this time and was only now being released. His head throbbed violently, as though his brain were trying to escape his skull and go out for some fresh air.
Even so, a faint smile ...

Yes. Envy.

It had been six months since he arrived...
2025-11-09 02:13:02 +0000 UTC View PostRyan made the most of the last day of vacation. It was pure productivity.
After Tristin left, he spent the first half of the day fully focused on the system books and on creating the rapid-reading glasses commissioned by the Ministry.
At noon, during his lunch break, Mr. Morrigan retu...
2025-11-09 01:40:54 +0000 UTC View PostRyan woke with a faint groan, sunk deep into the sheets of his double bed, which still smelled faintly of his lotion, and of a light floral scent that wasn’t his. He opened his eyes slowly, blinking against the morning light that slipped through the half-open curtains.
His head throbbed w...

2025-10-31 04:45:26 +0000 UTC View PostRyan was at home. It was winter break. Nearly three months had passed since he had given Andromeda the speed-reading glasses.
Three months that had flown by.
The holidays had begun on December 20, and in two days he would have to return to Hogwarts. He had spent a pleasant festive sea...

I woke up, as always, before everyone else.
Not because I had anything urgent to do, but because I needed those moments of silence before the castle’s noise began.

The last class of the day always felt long, but today it was especially slow.
Partly because it was History of Magic, taught by a professor who spoke in slow motion and without the slightest enthusiasm.

2025-10-08 22:56:45 +0000 UTC View PostThe Great Hall doors opened again.
Professor Sprout appeared, walking briskly, her robes billowing behind her. Her face was red with indignation, cheeks puffed as if she’d been holding back words all the way from the Hufflepuff common room. She wasn’t alone. She didn’t bring Eliza. 2025-10-07 14:21:20 +0000 UTC View Post

He didn’t hurry.
