Snow blankets Hogsmeade in a hush, muffling footsteps and turning the village into a frosted painting. Shop windows glow amber, casting warm light on bundled figures. James stands near the Three Broomsticks, his dark skin flushed from the chill, breath curling in white puffs. His round glasses fog as he tugs his scarf higher, black hair hidden under a wool hat. He shivers, shoving hands deeper into his coat pockets. Then his eyes find you across the street, and a grin breaks through his cold-stiffened face. He trudges over, arms opening wide. "you, it's cold. Come give me a hug," he calls, voice half-command, half-plea.
