Peter Pettigrew

At this moment, all was quiet, and everyone was fast asleep. It was truly unbelievable that after arriving in Ravenclaw, they would find themselves in the predicament of sharing a room with the old man Peter Pettigrew.

Ryan a thought, an invisible magic, like a spider web, wrapped around Peter, who had transformed into the rat Scabbers. A phantom spirit, a bald, middle-aged man with big, watery eyes and a pointed nose, floated out from Scabbers's body.

Meanwhile, on the Marauder's Map, the name Peter Pettigrew became tangled up and then turned into the name Scabbers.

With a sickening creak that went unnoticed by anyone, the gates of Smith Castle breached from within the Ravenclaw Tower, and the rational spirit representing the Scabbers aspect of the wizard floated before Ryan.

Upon noticing Ryan's arrival, the main gate opened automatically, and the door that had been in the castle's basement also appeared before Ryan.

Then a stone box in the dungeon suddenly opened, and the bald middle-aged man was sucked into it without any warning. Patterns resembling circuit diagrams appeared on the outside of the box, and then with a hiss, the box closed.

"If you want to be a rat, then really be a rat with the lifespan of a wizard." Ryan thought to himself, deciding that he would wait until Sirius escaped from prison, was exhausted and thirsty, and carefully evaded the Auror' pursuit before returning Peter's spirit to Dumbledore.

After all, he wasn't Sirius's father, and this guy was a scoundrel, so he might as well spend a few more years in jail.

Then, inside the Ravenclaw Tower, beside Ryan's bed, a handsome young man, as if he had stepped out of an ink painting, reappeared, now wearing a blue robe with gold thread.

Ryan walked slowly downstairs, passing right past the Ravenclaw students who were still reading, without being noticed by anyone, as if he were from another dimension.

After leaving the lounge and descending the dizzying spiral staircase, Ryan circled back to the stairwell, climbed to the Seventh Floor, opposite the Tapestry of Barnabas the Barmy Teaching Trolls Ballet.

Ryan paced back and forth three times, thinking about where they would meet. Then, an unusually smooth door appeared from the wall. Ryan opened the door, and as Ryan closed it, the wall returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened.

Before Ryan lay a room filled with pink hues. In the center of the room, on a large sofa, Penelope and Kate were flipping through a book.

However, even after Ryan came in, the two of them were still quietly flipping through their books, as if what had entered was a gust of wind, something that shouldn't have been there.

"Penelope?" Penelope rubbed her eyes, turned another page, and seemed not to have heard.

"Kate?" Kate twitched her ears, but remained unmoved.

"Didn't you say I should pretend I don't know you at school?" Ryan asked, feigning ignorance, his head aching.

Thud! The book was thrown heavily onto the carpet embroidered with peach blossoms.

"I told you, you don't have to come looking for me anymore." Penelope looked incredulous.

"Also, do you know Hermione Granger?" Kate snapped her book shut.

Finally, an hour later, after Ryan had used all his silver tongue and sweet words, everything returned to normal. Ryan found it hard to believe that he had such potential.

Every time, no matter what kind of trouble arises, Ryan always manages to resolve it perfectly with words. Was he really socially awkward in his past life?

After another brief, intimate moment of about fifteen minutes, Penelope and Kate, still physically able as ordinary girls, walked out of the Room of Requirement one after the other, each drawing their wands and casting a Disillusionment Charm on themselves.

Ryan simply disappeared from the spot based on the coordinates left in the dormitory.

Early the next morning, sunlight shone through the dark blue curtains onto Ryan's head. Ryan changed into his school uniform and got out of bed.

Well, the Ravenclaw bedroom is really well-lit. Looking out the window next to the bed, you can see the beautiful Black Lake. It's very early, and there aren't any wizards around the Black Lake. Only Hagrid's Hut in the Forbidden Forest in the distance can be vaguely seen, with a tall figure in the distance.

Upon closer inspection of the interior, the floor is covered with a star-patterned carpet, just like the lounge. Looking up, all you can see is the domed ceiling.

This dormitory has a total of 6 beds. In addition to Harry and Ron, there are Terry Boot, Michael Corner, and Anthony Goldstein.

It's interesting that if Harry were still Gryffindor, his roommate would have been Dean Thomas, one of Ginny's ex-boyfriends.

Even though Harry changed houses and dormitories, his roommate Michael Corner was still one of Ginny's ex-boyfriends.

What's even more interesting is that Dean Thomas is also Black. Does that mean Ginny prefers dark skin?

Or is this just J.K. Rowling's quirky sense of humor?

In J.K. Rowling's original concept, there was actually a lot of background information about Dean, but she never found a suitable place to write it down.

His story was included in an early draft of The Chamber of Secrets, but she ultimately removed it, sacrificing some interesting plot points so as not to overshadow Neville.

Dean initially believed he had a pure Muggle family background.

He was raised by his mother and stepfather: Dean was very young, which is normal for Black people.

He had a very happy family life and many half-siblings.

When a letter arrived from Hogwarts, Dean's mother naturally began to suspect that his father was a wizard, but no one discovered the truth: Dean's father had never told his wife who he was in order to protect her, and he was killed after refusing to join the Death Eaters.

In the original story, Dean discovers all of this during his student years.

So, does this hidden story still exist in this world? Unfortunately, Ryan isn't in Gryffindor, and he has no good excuse to investigate.

Scenes and iconic moments related to his past life and the original plot are undoubtedly a great way for Ryan, who is currently in another world, to unwind.

Ryan remained quietly seated on the bed, showing no intention of going to the Great Hall for dinner alone.

Three years have passed, and Ryan has developed a better way of dealing with his charm. Smith's magic, his innate passive insensitivity, has not disappeared.

As long as Ryan doesn't appear alone in front of others, no one will notice his almost bewitching charm. As long as there are other people around, he can enjoy the pleasure of being alone and unnoticed.

Of course, if you are suddenly called out to a single person, such as to answer questions, or as in yesterday's departmental discussion, then there's nothing you can do.

To avoid trouble, and since I don't need to eat, I'll wait a while.

Thanks to Dlostin for the monthly pass and to the other students for the recommendation.
