Slythrins would be the ones to suck on candy canes until they are really sharp and then stabs the Griffindors with them just to really get in to the Christmas spirit

Chapter 31 summary/ excerpt:

Harry and Ron were tearing their room apart. Harry was bewilderedly holding out cheese in his hand while awkwardly clicking his tongue and ducking through corners. While Ron was throwing everything he touched behind him.

“Oi!” Fred said, crashing into the room with George. “You lot are going—“

“To miss the train.” George finished for him.

They paused for a moment as soon as they entered the room.

“What happened here!?” They said together as they took in the mess of sheets pulled back and books tossed everywhere.

“I can’t find Scabbers!” Ron exclaimed.

“So what? He’s made some rat friends in the castle. Let him be.” Fred shrugged. “We’re going to make us miss the train over a rat.”

“Maybe you’ll find him after the Holidays.” George tried to reassure him.

“But what if he gets hungry? He could die!” Ron said.

“He’s probably asleep somewhere.” Fred said exasperated.

“He’s a rat I’m sure he’ll know how to get food.” George said.

“What is going on!?” A new pompous voice came from the door. Percy Weasley shoved his way into the room. “I have been waiting in the common room all morning. We can’t miss the train. Mrs. Black was kind enough to allow us into her home, if we cause trouble for her by missing the train and making her wait—“

“I can’t find scabbers!” Ron cut his brother off.

“You lost my rat!” Percy yelled.

“He’s not even yours anymore!” Ron yelled back.

“No. He’s just made new rat friends in the castle and doesn’t want to spend Christmas with the Blacks. Now let’s go!” Fred said.

Merry Christmas or happy holidays ❤️❄️

I made this for a one-shot I wrote, but didn’t finish.

I think this works without the text anyways, but for context and a spoiler, read under the cut (if I can make one?)

Draco has yet to apologise for his past actions to Hermione, despite having been her potions partner through all of first semester in their 8th year. On Christmas Eve, he goes to her parent’s house and finally gives her an apology. This is the moment right after that.

What’s better than being together with the people you love at Christmas? In my opinion nothing, apart from the mug cake.

INGREDIENTS for the mug cake (1 person)

2 table spoons and a half of flour, 3 table spoons of sugar, 1 egg, 3 table spoons of bitter cocoa powder, 3 table spoons of milk, 2 table spoon of seed oil, half a teaspoon of yeast

COOKINGPROCEDURE

First break the egg and add the oil and milk, then mix carefully with the table spoon. Add cocoa powder, sugar and flour, then mix energetically with the table spoon. Finally add half a teaspoon of yeast.

Oven or microwave at 180 degrees for 15’

Small oven at 140 degrees for 25’’

TIPS

You can also do the toothpick test, sticking it in the cup to check if the cake is ready.

I was wrong to add the chocolate chips because they clustered on the surface and burned, so I do not recommend using them.

If you don’t have milk at home, water is also fine but the cake will be a little more spongy.
