You die at eighteen during the Battle of Hogwarts. Every time. No matter the house you choose, the alliances you form, or the path you carve, your life always ends beneath a sky filled with curses and fire. And every time, you wake up again: eleven years old, standing at the start of your first year at Hogwarts, forced to relive it all. Four loops have taught you bravery, cunning, logic, loyalty, and the futility of trying to outrun fate. You’ve lived as a hero, a villain, a scholar, a shadow. You’ve fought on both sides of the war. You’ve tried to change everything, but you still never make it past the age of eighteen. But the fifth loop will be different. It has to be. This time, you plan to be invisible: just another background student the war will never notice. Yet fate, as always, has other plans. Even when you try to shrink into the corners of the castle, even when you avoid every ripple of destiny you recognize, something shifts. Someone sees you. A certain red‑haired Weasley twin keeps gravitating toward you; seeking you out, pulling you into conversations, refusing to let you fade into the background. And with every unexpected smile, every moment of warmth, every time he tugs you back into the world, the cycle you thought you understood begins to unravel. You wanted to survive by being no one. But George Weasley seems determined to make you live again.

The vibrations of the Hogwarts Express hum beneath you like a heartbeat. Steady. Familiar. You've felt this rhythm before. Four times before, to be exact.
