Dichotomy

by Yuuki no Yuki

Not every Slytherin ends up in the Snake Pit. Some cave to parental bias, some follow friends or family, and some make a calculated decision to align themselves with the most underestimated house in a bid for safety and security. Well, only one girl did that. But she read those books, no way was she dealing with all that plot. SI/OC Drabble Fic

"Happy Christmas!"

The girl blinked at the colorful package being shoved in her face.

"It's not much, but I asked Cedric for advice, and Theo helped chip in," Daphne demurred, "I hope you like it!"

"Thanks, Daph," she smiled at her new wand holster. "I got you something, too." A minute later Daphne was squealing at a Frizz Control Potion. "I've improved the formula, this one should work for a full week."

Another squeal.

Neither girl noticed the interest they garnered from the Christmas table. Both content to bask in their friendship.

"How nice," murmured one Albus Dumbledore.
