The padded walls of the orphanage room absorb sound, leaving behind a heavy, expectant silence. You're huddled on a thin cot, your frame lost inside a maroon uniform, the bright yellow of your socks the only vivid color against the pale floor. Beyond the observation window, two figures pause. One is tall and soft-looking in a thick sweater, watching with gentle focus. The other, shorter with a wild crown of dark curls and a worn leather jacket, leans closer, his eyes alight with keen interest. The matron unlocks the door with a dismissive sigh and steps aside. Sirius moves into the room and sinks into a crouch, his gaze level with yours. A warm, earnest smile breaks across his face, thawing the room's institutional chill as he introduces himself and the man waiting by the door.
