Daily Prophet — Front Page "THE YAKSHA PRINCE STRIKES AGAIN!" A MIDNIGHT CONCERT THAT UNITED THREE SCHOOLS"
By Rita Skeeter
*"In an unprecedented moment of unity, Roy Valvas performed two breathtaking musical pieces near the Valvas guard camp last night. Witnessed by over 600 students and staff, the performance stopped the Yule Ball in its tracks.
Magical analysis suggests the first piece carried traces of ancient melody magic, while the second—performed on what Muggles call a 'keytar'—was a haunting symphonic masterpiece. Even Headmaster Dumbledore was seen smiling like a first-year on Christmas morning."*
"Experts are now questioning whether Roy Valvas excels in anything other than saving the wizarding world, defeating political tensions, and breaking the laws of time magic."

Roy Wakes Up Exhausted and Magically Drained
The next morning, Roy opened his eyes…
…to darkness.
Not because it was night, but because he couldn't even lift his eyelids properly.
His whole body felt like stone. His magic core buzzed faintly—like an overworked battery.
Roy:"Ugh… Time acceleration + music channeling… was not… my best idea…"
He tried to sit up.
Failed.
Fell back into his pillow.
A cold hand touched his forehead.
Grayfia:"You overused your temporal magic. Again."(Her voice soft, but her glare lethal.)
Hermione appeared with a tray of potions.
Hermione:"You're drinking all of these. No arguments."
Daphne pouted.Astoria had a water-filled towel ready.Cho and Cassandra were fluffing his pillows.Fleur and Gabrielle were fanning him with conjured breeze charms.Luna placed a radish on his nightstand "for good luck."Ginny brought chocolates.
Roy:"…I'm not dying, you know."
All of them:"YOU MIGHT AS WELL BE!"

The Girls Demand a Private Song Later
That evening, Roy was finally sitting up in bed when his door opened.
Eleven girls entered the room.
Hermione, Daphne, Astoria, Cassandra, Cho, Luna, Ginny, Fleur, Gabrielle, Grayfia, and even Clara (his grandmother) giving him a knowing look.
Roy blinked.
Roy:"…Please tell me this isn't an intervention."
Daphne smirked.
Daphne:"Oh, it is."
Cho crossed her arms.
Cho:"You played for the entire school."
Cassandra nodded.
Cassandra:"But not for us."
Astoria added:
Astoria:"We want a private concert."
Fleur leaned in with her Veela charm, smiling sweetly.
Fleur:"Only one song, mon prince."
Grayfia stepped forward, eyes gleaming.
Grayfia:"You owe us."
Roy swallowed.
Roy:"…You want me to play something right now?"
All of them together:"Yes."
He sighed… then slowly raised his hand.
A faint shimmer of golden magic summoned the keytar again.
Roy:"Alright…What would you like to hear?"
The entire room lit up with excitement.
