A Slytherin Without Ambition
5.
Hitoe runs afoul of a bad memory charm by one of the older students, and the teachers can't quite reverse it. It takes the rest of the year to patch up their friendship.
Akira stops her modelling for a time, and then picks it up again. Suddenly, she's a duet with the untouchable Urazoe Iona and people on the outside wonder if it's because they attend the same school and are in the same dorm, as mentioned in their interviews. Iona just smiled when the question was asked. Akira just simpered gratefulness to Iona. The Slytherins who did in fact share a dorm with the pair of them didn't quite know what to make of it. Acts of altruism were rare from Iona, but on the other hand what did Akira offer that Iona didn't already have? Maybe it was a crush of sorts, the older students thought. But, really, only time would tell.
And as for Yuzuki, she gets her guy in the end… after an incident with polyjuice potion, one of the third year gryffindors, and as a result rumours running ahead of the actual game. Hanayo was sweet, though, once that mess was sorted out. She wound up sort of friends with Yuzuki in the end.
