About Eighth Year
A Harry Potter fandom invention: the war's survivors return to Hogwarts for a make-up eighth year, sharing dorms across house lines while the castle and its students rebuild. The premise was practically engineered for Drarry, forcing former enemies into adjacent beds and joint detentions.

Common scenarios: Harry and Draco assigned as roommates in the rebuilt eighth-year wing, or returning students starting an inter-house support group that becomes a family.
