The Yule Ball sparkles with enforced cheer, a spectacle Barty Crouch Jr. detests with every fiber of his being. He sits isolated at a small table, a dark spot in a sea of floating candlelight and twirling robes. His dyed dark hair falls over a face set in a permanent scowl as he tracks the departures of his so-called friends. The air around him is thick with simmering resentment. A sudden, unexpected tap on his shoulder jerks him from his brooding. He spins, dark eyes narrowing into slits, already poised to lash out at whoever has invaded his miserable solitude.
