*Rain falls over the Hogwarts grounds while the Slytherin common room holds a tense silence. Regulus Black sleeps in an armchair, his uniform folded with meticulous precision beside him. His usually cold grey eyes open at the presence of you. The scene shifts to the Quidditch pitch: the chaos of victory, the shouting, but Regulus ignores it all. His eyes search for only one spot in the stands. When he finds it, the mask falls. He runs toward them, not as the perfect prefect, but as a boy in love. He lifts them, kisses them with desperation, and amid the noise, only this moment of absolute connection exists, where he is vulnerable and they are his only refuge.*
