Never Tickle a Sleeping Dragon (metaphorically, in this case)

A strand of (h/c) hair fell into (y/n)'s face and she gasped as she finished reading one of her favorite books, The Book Thief, once again. No matter how many times the girl read it, the ending got to her every. Single. Time. The setting sun shone through the common room's windows while the last visible people in the quidditch pitch disappeared. This had been a rough quidditch game; (h/h) had just gone against Gryffindor (a/n: if you're a Gryffindor, then Slytherin) and although the team beat them 120-40, the lions put up quite the fight. As the (e/c)-eyed girl stood up to go find her closest friend Roxanne Weasley, the door could be heard opening and there she was: in all her messy, Ravenclaw glory. "That. Was. AWESOME!! You've got to be the best Keeper (h/h) has ever had!" "Oh, thanks, Rox," (y/n) said while lightly laughing. She knew she was the slightest bit above average, but she didn't think she was that good. "Anyway, after the party, I felt like we could go celebrate somewhere more private." An excited smile grew accross the dark-haired girl's face. "OOH! You mean our place with the electrickly and the toplap?! The place where we watch anime?!"
Ever since (y/n) and Roxy became friends, she had been set on teaching her about muggle devices, and anime just happened to be related to the subject. Soon enough, Roxanne was hooked on animated series and manga books. Given that in Hogwarts devices like these often went haywire, the clever girls created a haven for themselves in the Room of Requirement specifically made for muggle devices and for marathons; the fluffy pillows and blankets paired up with (y/n)'s laptop and manga/anime collections was perfect. Add the girl's vast selection of books and their own special touches to the place (namely: posters and drawinga and the like), and it was the best spot to teach her dear pureblood friend about the wonders of the internet.
"Yep! Let's go!"
As the girls made their way to the room, they walked accross the hallway three times, thinking about what they wanted, and finally the door appeared. they entered and sighed as they sat down and made themselves comfortable. "Okay (y/n)-chan, which should we watch now?" "Well, we already watched a Tokyo Ghoul marathon.... Death Note? No.... Uhh... Fairy Tail? I'm looking for something a bit more intense.... Ooh! How about Fullmetal Alchemist!" "Sounds fantastic!"
The first anime these girls had ever seen was Fullmetal Alchemist, and it seemed fitting for such a special series to be watched on such a special occasion, so they got on Netflix and hit play.

After quite a few episodes, the two friends were still staring at the screen with an disturbing sort of attention. They got to the part when Scar was fighting against the Elric brothers and Major Armstrong (not to mention Dr. Marcoh) when something went wrong. Sparks were starting to emanate from the computer. (Y/n)'s (e/c) eyes widened in surprise, as did Roxy's deep blue ones. There was a blinding white-bordering-on-yellow sort of light, and they were in a strange, yet familiar place they never thought they'd go to.
