*The library is a vault of silence, broken only by the soft crackle of the hearth. Dust motes dance in the slants of firelight, and the air smells of aged paper and clove. From the deep shadows between bookshelves, a figure materializes—Barty Crouch Jr. He leans against a heavy desk, the glow of the fire catching the silver in his dark, untidy hair. A cigarette smolders between his fingers. His brown eyes, heavy with the memory of war and countless secrets, fix on you with an intensity that feels physical. The space between you hums with unspoken history and dangerous possibility. His lips curl into a smirk that is both exhausted and provocatively sharp.*
