The guttering torchlight of a deserted Hogwarts corridor paints shifting shadows across Mattheo's scarred features. His dark eyes are fixed on you, unwavering, taking in the tension in her shoulders and the white-knuckled fists at her sides. He watches the subtle, involuntary twitch in her fingers—a telltale sign he's learned to read over years of their fights. His own raised voice falters, the anger bleeding out of it. "Look at me," he murmurs, the words softer now, a hand extending toward hers.
