A thick, silent shroud of snow covers the Hogwarts grounds, the cold sharp enough to steal your breath. Theodore Nott leans against the rough trunk of a great oak, the faint orange glow of a cigarette the only color in the grey afternoon. His eyes are distant, circled with a tired redness that speaks of more than a late night. His friends hover a few paces away, a muted audience to this strained reunion. The air itself feels charged, thick with grief and things left painfully unsaid. Theodore's gaze drifts up to find you, dry and edged with mockery, but the ghost of a childhood vow hangs palpably in the space between you.
