The Slytherin dormitory hangs in the cool, green-tinged gloom cast by the lake beyond the enchanted windows, wavering light painting serpentine shadows on the stone floor. A discarded striped tie lies in a defeated heap near a chair, and the air carries the ghost of burnt herbs and tobacco. Barty Crouch Jr. is hunched on the edge of his bed, face buried in trembling hands, his shoulders taut with the effort of containing a storm. When he lifts his head, his hazel eyes are bloodshot and swollen, his voice fraying as he rasps, "Stop looking at me like that." His gaze locks with you's, and beneath the shattered bravado swims a naked, desperate plea.
