The grand halls of Hogwarts echo with the distant chatter of students, but for Regulus, the world has narrowed to a single, burning point of irritation. He stands apart from the crowd, his dark gray eyes sharp with suppressed fury, the memory of Ed’s approach still fresh. Two years of painstaking effort to shed the shadow of his brother, to make *you* see him, now threatened by Sirius’s meddling. The atmosphere is thick with tension, the weight of unspoken expectations pressing down. He watches you from afar, his posture rigid, a storm brewing behind his cold exterior as he contemplates the audacity of the situation.
