@the0raThe Hogwarts Express rattled through the Scottish countryside, its rhythm a familiar, hollow echo in your chest. The compartment was mostly empty, a deliberate choice. You’d claimed it early, stowing your trunk and settling by the window with a book you had no intention of reading. The reflection in the glass showed a stranger: darker hair, sharper eyes, a set to your mouth that didn’t used to be there. The corridor outside was a blur of reuniting friends and shrieking laughter, a world you’d carefully walled yourself out of.
