No.40 Wand 10 (Upright)
JK's article sets Slytherin as a villain hangout, but that's not the case for me.
So it's whitewashing, anyway, I love such an awkward and proud snake courtyard very much, what do you think?
====================================
Wand-10 (Positive): Excessive pressure.
γ
Hogwarts, England

Although after Christmas, it means that he is a year older, but Draco really feels that in the recent period, he is only 12 years old, and he has aged very psychologically.
Like what...... Now, right now.
"Opal, give me attention!"
Helplessly, he stretched out his hand, and finally caught up with someone who was buried in the papers, and pulled her in front of the protruding pedestal in the school corridor.
[Huh?] Oh...... Thanks Draco. ]
Then the subject looked up, glanced at the obstacle he was about to collide with, and then stuck his tongue out at him and continued to walk while reading the papers.
The scene repeats itself in an infinite loop like the three beats of the waltz - until they officially reach their original destination.
If it weren't for the fact that most of the documents and materials that Opal had read along the way had been given to her to be dealt with, Draco felt that he would not be able to control his temper and take it away.
He's the next heir to the Malfoy family, so why do something that's obviously a nanny or a housekeeper does!
What has this guy been busy with lately, how can he even have to work on documents on the way to class - it seems that Pansy mentioned that Opal can often be seen holding materials when she is in the girls' dormitory.
"Speaking of which, what have you been busy with lately? How do you have so many things to deal with. β
After reaching out once more to stop Opal's stupidity of hitting the wall to commit suicide, Draco rubbed his headache temple and reached out to Opal, "Forget it, give it to me." β
[Huh?] ]
Blinking, Opal looked at Draco's hand with a puzzled face.
"You won't listen to it anyway, you continue to read the documents, and I'll take you to the classroom."
After sullenly dropping the words, Draco turned his head, trying to control his urge to wail inwardly - didn't he decide to make this guy suffer for a second? How did this happen?
Damn, this guy Opal was definitely born to restrain him!
[Thanks, Draco, you're a nice guy.] ]
Opal shook Draco's hand very happily and gave him a "Good Guy Card".
"I said Opal ......"
Draco, who had already heard the meaning of the so-called "good guy card" from his father like a joke, now had enough black lines on the back of his head to make wool, "Don't talk nonsense about this in the future, okay?" β
[Huh?] ]
Continuing to blink, the expression on someone's face at the moment is really very innocent.
"Forget it, when I didn't say anything."
Raising his hand to half-cover his face, Draco took Opal's hand and dragged her towards the destination classroom, "You can show me your papers." Speaking of which, I don't think there are so many files to deal with in the first grade, right? β
[Ah...... It was sent from another place. ]
As he was focusing on the papers, Opal only muttered, not noticing the thoughtfulness that flashed in Draco's eyes after hearing her words, combined with the vacation time that Opal had asked for. (Tianyin: So the boy really has to continue to fog up...... οΌ
It's not that he doesn't want to ask what Opal is up to, but Draco knows very well that while Opal's usual dealings with people sometimes make people think she's dull, it's only for trivial things that don't matter.
When it came to formal matters, Opal was close to an unassailable perfection in both judgment and handling - judging by the fact that she was able to deal with them in an orderly manner, and that she should never have been exposed to first-year Slytherin official duties.
Having said that, the people who can enter Slytherin are of course because of their blood, but among the little snakes who have experienced aristocratic education, which one is really naΓ―ve or innocent?
Even his follower Goyle is very aware of his responsibilities, although the two of them are a little stupid, but once it comes to their own duties, they will not slacken, and they can always complete the things they are told to do as quickly as possible - otherwise they would not have been selected in the first place.
The same can be extended to Opal, although it feels a little dull and deceitful, but once she asks a question she doesn't want to answer, in addition to not getting any answers, she will also talk a lot about it, and finally forget the purpose in the first place.
After all, a person's energy is limited, so although sometimes he can help with the device, Opal insists on completing Filknight's training list, and at the same time has to solve the document that Vivian threw at the famous "obligation to adapt to Gaia's son in advance", and finally has a feeling of "powerlessness" - after all, no matter how mature and meticulous her thinking is, she is still just a 12-year-old child now.
Therefore, it is not surprising that he has been called to the office of the poisonous tongue dean's office in Slytherin to perform labor services more and more.
Of course, others naturally won't know that usually when Opal goes to Snape's office, Snape basically won't be there, and the labor projects that are left in the office in advance are all things that Opal can easily complete and sleep well by the way - and those small snacks mixed with nutrients and tranquilizers in the office, when Snape clearly opens his eyes and closes his eyes, Opal naturally will not miss them. (Amayin: So I said, what the hell is the professor doing awkwardly?) οΌ
There have been students from other houses who have maliciously slandered Opal with such things, but the rumors disappeared on their own three days after the word broke, and the perpetrators were completely isolated and ostracized, plus they were always involved in some inexplicable unfortunate incident. Although it won't be to the point of dropping out, it is estimated that it will be impossible to have that idle effort to go for a walk until graduation.
Because of Opal's personality, although her regular circle of friends in Slytherin is only limited to a few, after all, she has the title of "first-year chief" on her head, and Opal's ability to deal with things has also been recognized by other grade chiefs and prefects, so although there may be some little snakes who don't like her in private, but because Opal is capable, they will not openly disobey authority outside - anyway, if it doesn't like the eye, they will apply for a duel plus daily stumbling blocks, If you are recruited, it means that you are not capable enough to abdicate and make way for the virtuous as soon as possible, not to mention that the grade prefect and chief are challenged every year, and everyone has a chance.
As Slytherin students, they have their own unique pride and rules that no one else can afford. (Tianyin: It is also the so-called feeling of "unanimity to the outside and infighting behind closed doors".) οΌ
Of course, for this level of undercurrent at Hogwarts, she selectively ignored it because Opal judged it to be "no threat", and at most she was surprised that the roots of her ears had recently been purified.
After all, for her now, who longs for 96 hours a day, it is important to hurry up and complete her plan and complete the things that Riddle has given her as soon as possible, rather than caring about the daily little things that are inconsequential and completely threatening to her.
Well? What are the normal challenges, you say?
Offal, who had just been in the middle of his usual scramble last night, had overturned Draco, who was already recognized as the second best first-year martial artist, by virtue of his moves and silent silence.

Hogwarts Library

Opal, who was immersed in the library during the afternoon break, suddenly moved his ears, and then looked up to the side.
[Fred?] ]
"Your senses are quite acute, I wanted to scare you."
Sitting next to Opal, Fred couldn't see any disappointment.
At first, he wondered why Draco was no longer by his side at this time, but Opal quickly accepted the fact - Draco was probably lured away by Fred anyway, right?
After glancing at Fred, Opal couldn't help but tug at the corners of his lips slightly: [I said Fred, the Slytherin uniform really doesn't fit you.] ]
If it weren't for the fact that the sense of magic hadn't changed at all, she would have almost thought she had mistaken someone.
"No way, I can't get close to you without wearing this outfit."
Waving his hand not very concerned, Fred's gaze swept over the book in Opal's hand, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "How did I not know that first-year freshmen still have to learn about alchemy?" β
[Just interest.] Because I found something very interesting, I wanted to do it. ]
Opal didn't answer Fred's question directly, but after copying an excerpt from a note in his hand, he closed the book in his hand, [Got the thing?] ]
"What is it that has made you so obsessed with all this time?"
Curiously glanced at the notes made by Opal, and then was immediately dazzled by the dense calculation data, Fred put a black line on his head, "It looks quite complicated, I can't understand it anyway." β
[If you can understand it at a glance, then haven't I been doing day jobs all this time?] ]
Opal couldn't help but roll his eyes and close the notebook in his hand, [Professor Snape has asked me to be his assistant recently, and although I can learn a lot, I can't stand the high mental tension all day. So I want to do something that interests me. ]
"You're doing that greasy old bat's assistant?"
Fred was a little surprised, "Aren't you punished by labor because you have been making mistakes too often lately?" β
[uh...... That's part of the reason. ]
Opal stuck out his tongue in embarrassment, [though there's a lot to learn from Professor Snape.] And it's pretty helpful for me. ]
At least what she was working on now wouldn't have been able to do without the same techniques she had learned from Snape - that's pretty much the case.
"It's good that you don't care. But will your body be able to withstand this? β
Fred simply changed the subject.
[It's okay, I'm used to it.] ]
Tucking his hair behind his ears, Opal smiled, [I'll be relieved when I'm done with this time.] ]
"Since you have decided so, then I won't say anything more."
Fred took a small box out of his pocket and handed it to Opal from under the table, "Here, these are the things you want me to find." Because they are all contraband, it took a lot of effort to get it...... Can you ask what you're going to do? β
[Live point map.] ]
Opal felt that there was no need to hide Fred, so he said truthfully, [If you are lucky, you should be able to make two copies of these materials, and you either?] ]
"If you can, of course, it's the best. But it's hard to make a live map, right? Need my help? β
Fred clenched his fist, "Although I don't know anything about the formal production, I can do it all the time." What do you think? β
[It's good if you have this heart, but I'll be distracted if someone else is around.] ]
Declining Fred's kindness, Opal put away the box, and then, as if thinking of something, took out another small gift from his pocket, [This is for you. ]
"Chocolate?"
Fred, who didn't expect to get a gift from Opal, was a little stunned, and a hint of flying red flashed on his face, "Give it to me?" β
[Of course, I was taken care of before.] ]
Opar, who winked at Fred and felt that the matter at hand could be over for the time being, stood up with a smile, [That's it, there is no class this afternoon, I'm going to hurry up and go to the ...... first]
Before she could finish speaking, a dizzy sensation brought her consciousness to a halt as if the power had been cut off.
"Opal?!"
Stunned, he caught Opal, who had collapsed in an instant, and after checking her condition with some concern, Fred found out that she was only ...... Asleep......
Maybe it's because I've been under too much pressure lately, right?
After all, the venomous tongue of that old bat is not something that anyone can stand.
After secretly glad that his and Opal's position was in a corner of the library that no one else would notice, so as not to cause a commotion, Fred gently picked up Opal.
Well? Does it feel weird about the center of gravity of her body?
After sweeping Opal's wrist, Fred was a little embarrassed by the power clasp he had found.
But then again, I don't know how heavy these power buckles are, and even with these weights, Opal still feels so light. If she hadn't been seen eating every time she was at the dinner table, unwitting people would have thought she had been mistreated in Slytherin......
Pulling the cloak behind his clothes, Fred stepped out of the other door of the library.
Although he knew that Opal might be a little unhappy, in order to avoid trouble, it was better to send her to the medical wing first.
Merely......
Looking at Opal, who spontaneously adjusted to a more comfortable position in his arms and continued to sleep peacefully, Fred's head once again drew a row of black lines.
This kid is really relieved of him, isn't he afraid of what he will do to her?
