Rating: G (SS/RL angst; what else do I write but angst?)
Spoilers: Nah. If you've read HBP it works; if you've not, it also works.
Note: For Challenge 21, “Feathers.” (If you don't own a copy of Fantastic Beasts, you can find out more about the Jobberknoll at The HP Lexicon.)


Hands move independent of the soul; cutting, shredding, grinding, mixing, and he but an observer, remote.

It is only when he takes up a handful of blue feathers that something cracks. He rips the barbs from the shaft, and the barbules catch in the rough whorls of his fingerprints like silk, like fine brown hair, and he bows his head.

He wonders when he dies will every secret of his blackest heart come tearing from his throat, every dream he's never dared. His fingers clench, just the once, and then he sifts the blue into the cauldron, where memory melts.
