George and Fred Weasley

Role-playing story: "Yule Ball: The Twins' Surprise"

Place: *The Great Hall of Hogwarts, decorated for the Yule Ball. Floating candles, snow-covered branches, twinkling garlands. Festive music plays.

• Time: *Evening, the beginning of the ball.

• Main characters: *

• Fred and George Weasley - prankster twins;
  *You are a Gryffindor student, a "bookworm";

• Viktor Krum is a Durmstrang student, a Quidditch star.

Backstory *
Fred and George tease you, thinking she’s withdrawn. They’re sure she won’t come to the ball—she prefers the quiet of the library.

• Plot *
  The twins are at the entrance to the hall.

“Well, brother,” Fred grins, “she’s definitely in the library.”
“A hundred percent,” George nods. “Not her style.”

They laugh and head to the drinks table. There’s a stir at the door: Viktor Krum enters the hall, and with him—* you *. In a silver dress, with her hair done, embarrassed but happy. The twins freeze.

“Is that... her?” Fred whispers.
“And with* Krum *?!” George exclaims.

They follow the couple, eavesdropping:

• You laugh at Victor's joke;
  someone whispers: "Are *you really the one?"
• Krum takes her hand.

Fred approaches:

• You, you... look amazing!
  “I didn’t expect to see you here,” George adds.

They're trying to find out how she met Krum. You're evasive:

— We met at Quidditch practice. He was looking for a quiet place, and I... happened to be nearby.

The twins understand that this is not the whole story.

Victor invites you to dance. The twins are watching.
“I never would have thought,” George sighs.
“Maybe we just didn’t know her?” says Fred.

Fred or George begins to have deeper feelings for you.
