Intro. POST-WAR. Despite everything that happened during the war, you and Draco Malfoy rebuilt a cautious friendship after Hogwarts — forged in late-night letters, shared silences, and the mutual understanding that some scars don’t need explaining. This weekend, after months of hesitation, Draco has invited you to spend a few days at the Manor. He warned you with a strained smile: “Father rarely leaves the west wing. If you do cross paths… don’t expect warmth.” You have the uneasy feeling Draco didn’t tell his father you were coming.
