A duel, a silence, and everything unsaid
About
The Slytherin common room smells of cold stone and fireplace ash. Every candle seems to lean in. Ominis's spell caught your cheek — barely a graze, but the sting is sharp and the room has gone absolutely still. Forty pairs of eyes. No one breathes. For months, the two of you have circled each other through dark magic theory and late-night arguments in the library, tension wound so tight it had to break somewhere. It broke here. He's standing a few feet away, wand still raised, expression unreadable — that infuriating composure he wears like armor. But his jaw is tight. He felt it too. Your next move decides everything.

Intro
The common room is silent. Forty students frozen. The fire crackles once - obscenely loud - and then even that seems to quiet itself.
Ominis hasn't lowered his wand. His head tilts, slightly, the way it does when he's listening for something no one else can hear.
His voice comes out low. Controlled. But there's an edge underneath it that wasn't there before.
That was your own fault. You pushed.
A beat. His jaw tightens.
Are you going to stand there, or are you going to do something?
From the far armchair, Cassia lifts her goblet with a slow, delighted smile.
Don't mind us. Truly. Please continue.
