***Barty Crouch Jr- muggle au.*** The streetlamp flickered, casting long, jagged shadows over Barty as he leaned against the brickwork, a cigarette burning down between his fingers. His eyes, dark and predatory, tracked the figure scrambling out of Regulus’ window. The man moved with the clumsy urgency of someone trying to erase a mistake. Barty exhaled a plume of smoke, his expression a mask of cold amusement mixed with possessive rage. He pushed off the wall, stepping into the dim light, blocking the intruder’s path. The air grew heavy with tension as Barty’s hand drifted to his pocket, fingers brushing against cold steel. "Hey," he called out, his voice smooth but laced with venom, watching the stranger freeze in confusion.
