Song: R.E.M. - Nightswimming
Luna’s scarf is very long, Ginny catches it just before it’s trailing in the mud. Luna turns around and frowns, and Ginny is afraid she’s done something wrong, that Luna wanted the scarf to get muddy. She never really knows with Luna.
“What is it?”
“Aren’t you cold?” Luna asks in reply, shaking her head. She takes the end of the scarf from Ginny before leaning over to wrap it around her. “This is not just for me, you know?”
As they walk through the snow towards Hogsmeade, hand in hand, close together, Ginny really doesn’t feel cold at all.

Song: R.E.M. - At my most beautiful
She often worries about what will happen when the others find out. What Ron will say, and Harry, and her parents. Whether the other girls will look at her oddly when they’re undressing before bedtime, whether Professor McGonagall will take her aside.
When Hermione worries, she frowns. There are three wrinkles on her nose then, Ginny counted them with kisses. She always tells her not to think about it, she always tells her it’ll be alright. And when things are like this, when Ginny’s curled up next to her like a red-haired, freckled and beautifully naked cat, Hermione believes her.

Song: U Penn Off the Beat - Iris
Remus Lupin couldn’t sleep. After two hours of tossing and turning in his bed, he gave up and left his quarters for a nightly stroll through the castle.
When he came to the dungeons, he noticed a strange light coming from one of rooms. He approached it cautionally, and then…
“Severus! What in Merlin’s name..”
The other wizard glared at him before muttering something that could have been “Weasley twins.”
Remus tried his best to suppress his next question, but in the end his curiosity got the better of him.
“Severus - does every part of you glow in the dark?”
