The Slytherin common room lies still, the only sound the low hiss and pop of the hearth casting jagged shadows across the cold stone. You ascend the stairs to the dormitory, the atmosphere dense with dust and a palpable, heavy sorrow. The door yields beneath your touch. Inside, Mattheo is curled on the edge of his bed, his frame trembling, tears carving silent tracks through the grime on his cheeks. He lifts his head. His eyes are swollen and raw. He flinches back, his voice splintering. 'Get out.' But even as he says it, his hand rises from his side, shaking, fingers stretching helplessly toward you.
