She had simply judged from the micro-expressions of the three seniors that they probably wanted snowmen too.
As it happened, while she was instinctively building snowmen earlier, she had subconsciously made these three small ones, which were in the likeness of the three seniors.
Since they wanted them now, she would just give them to them.
At the same time, Lynn's gaze slowly shifted to the snowmen the three seniors had built.
They were all very ordinary snowmen, one snowball stacked on another, but one could tell they were made with care; the snowmen even wore the blue scarves exclusive to Ravenclaw around their necks.
The three seniors happily held the snowmen Lynn had given them and soon discovered some ways in which they were different from other snowmen.
The snowmen in their hands were not only lifelike, but they also showed no signs of melting.
You see, although the weather was indeed very cold, they were actually holding these three snowmen.
Normal snowmen would melt at least a little, but these three in their hands... hadn't changed at all.
The three girls looked at each other and silently accepted the fact that the snowmen Lynn had built were magical.
Truly an enviable magical talent—this thought only flashed by for a moment.
What they thought about more was that this was so convenient! They could keep these snowmen forever!
After playing in the snow, Lynn returned to the Dormitory with Maranhao and Marietta; the two seniors told her in unison to take a hot bath first.
"We're your seniors, so we're definitely more resistant to the cold."
"Exactly, you're younger, so you have to be careful not to catch a cold."
Pushed into the bathroom, Lynn closed the door expressionlessly, swallowing the words she had been about to say.
She had actually wanted to say... according to the rules of etiquette, she should have deferred to her seniors.
Besides, they had all cast Warming Charms on themselves before going out to play in the snow, so it was impossible to catch a cold.
Reaching out to turn on the shower, hot water fell from Lynn's hair and flowed over her body.
As she slowly washed herself, Lynn continuously recalled the content of Potion Class in her mind.
There were only a few months left until final exams after Christmas; starting her review now wasn't too early.
Steam billowed in the bathroom, while a biting cold wind blew outside Hogwarts Castle.
The "Hermione" that Lynn had built stood in a spot outside Hogwarts Castle, remaining motionless even as the cold wind swept past.
Even when blown branches struck it, not a single mark was left behind.
Fred, still immersed in the snowball fight, threw a snowball with great force, and it slammed into the snowman Lynn had built.
Fred instantly cried out, gasping for air. "Oh no!"
Not caring that the snowball fight was still ongoing, he rushed toward the snowman as fast as he could, taking several snowballs to the body.
Ron and George, coming to their senses, stopped throwing snowballs and walked forward with Harry, looking at him strangely.
"Fred, what's wrong with you?" Ron asked, looking at him in confusion.
"Brother, have you finally gone completely mad?" George asked teasingly.
Only Harry, who had witnessed everything, tremblingly pointed at the snowman in front of Fred.
"The snowman... built by Lynn... it's Hermione..."
"What?" Ron and George both exclaimed in confusion, then turned to look closely at the snowman.
"By Merlin, it really does look like her..."
Ron's voice grew smaller as he marveled at it.
Wait, a snowman built by Lynn, and it's of Hermione—how much must this snowman... Thinking of Lynn and then of Hermione, Ron silently took two steps back.
"Fred," George said, his face pale as he looked at his brother, "you didn't just hit it with a snowball, did you?"
"I did." Fred nodded reluctantly.
"Merlin..." Ron covered his mouth to stifle a cry, only whispering after checking that no one was around.
"You hit the snowman Lynn built, and it's in the shape of Hermione. With how Hermione, The Ravenclaws, and Mom dote on her, if they find out about this, they'll definitely come after you."
As he spoke, he even sounded a bit gleeful at his brother's misfortune.
Their mother, Mrs. Weasley, adored Lynn now because she had saved Ginny.
From what they knew, their mother had prepared an extremely generous Christmas gift for Lynn.
Thinking of his mother, Fred held his breath and leaned in to inspect the snowman closely, then let out a sigh of relief. "Phew, the snowman is fine."
"It's actually quite sturdy."
The four boys were silent for a moment and then left as if nothing had happened.
As long as there were no bad consequences, time to slip away.
After her bath, Lynn walked out of the bathroom drying her hair.
