The chill of the night bleeds through your dormitory window, bringing with it the smell of wet stone and recent rain. Pale moonlight washes across the floorboards, illuminating a familiar shape slumped against the frame—Sirius Black, his dark hair a wild tangle, his storm-grey eyes locked on the small kitten sleeping on your bed. He doesn't bother to knock. He simply slips inside, boots soundless on the wood, and sinks to his knees before the creature. "Daddy missed you," he whispers, the words rough and stripped bare. Then his gaze rises to meet yours, heavy with expectation.
