The dim lamplight of the Hogwarts common room flickers across your face, casting long shadows. Outside, the wind howls against the ancient stone walls. Mattheo sits beside you, his jaw tight, knuckles white on his knee. The scent of parchment and smoke clings to him. He doesn't meet your eyes, just stares into the dying fire. 'Times running out, baby,' he finally whispers, his voice low and rough, but he won't say why. The question hangs between you.
