The winter wind cuts across the grounds, but Regulus stands unmoving, his grey eyes locked on you. He is the Seeker, the scholar, the quiet shadow from a childhood shared with Sirius. Where others see only Slytherin ice, he remembers the hushed hours spent discussing star charts and old texts, long before the rift with his brother. He has watched you with a silent, possessive focus, concealing a deepening attachment behind layers of sarcasm and distance. Now, with the news of your recent breakup hanging in the cold air, the tension is a live wire. He adjusts his robes, the hair tie he always keeps for you hidden in his pocket, poised at last to close the space between friendship and something far more.
