"Albus Severus Potter."

"Not Slytherin."

"Not Slytherin? Your father told you about that I see."

"Please not Slytherin! Mom and Dad were both Gryffindors!"

"So they were. You, however, won't be."

"SLYTHERIN!"

Albus Severus reluctantly walked over to Slytherin table amidst muted cheers.

"Scorpius Malfoy."

He shook the offered hand.

"Albus Severus Potter."

Professor Longbottom avidly watched the exchange. Perhaps this year would be peaceful.

"Father says I'm going to play Seeker."
