Uh…hi Lucifer and uh Alastor…how’s it going?

I’m midnight.
I’m the start of something new.
I’m dark. I’m threatening. I’m bewitching.
I’m 3am.
I’m haunted.
I’m strobe lights and happy face pills.
I’m terribly alone.
I’m noon.
I’m halfway over. Halfway done.
Halfway to dead. To rot.
I’m the zenith. The peak.
I’m always looking down.
I’m 2pm.
The sun is high and the day full of promise.
The wind might bite
and the heat might swell but
the dark is so far away.
I’m 4pm.
I’m the winter coming to bring the dark
too early.
I’m the change to purple and gold,
only visible if the clouds cover up the sky.
I’m 8pm.
Time is private now.
or glimmering bright,
the dark of a dive bar,
the bitter taste down my throat.
It’s a different day, now.
Ending and just starting.
I’m midnight.
I’m over. I’m done.
I’m dying and a new me will take my place
but like which each midnight,
I die.
And then I am the start of something new.

The last day of fourth year...
CW: Swearing, alluding to abuse and the war
The four friends sat in the busy courtyard, the warm early summer sun high in the sky. They had all loosened their ties and rolled up their sleeves trying to soak it up. They were enjoying their last full day of fourth year as the summer holidays were starting tomorrow.
“So what are everyone's summer plans?” Pandora asked laying back on her arms, face in the sunlight.
Barty and Regulus looked at each other, sharing a look. “Avoiding our parents,” they both said flatly.
Pandora sat up quickly looking at them with a sad expression, “sorry I wasn’t thinking…” she started before being cut off by Regulus.
“Ha, it’s alright Dora, we are just teasing,” He said kindly, desperate to not upset her even if it was the truth.
She smiled.
Barty snorted and looked like he didn't agree but he didn't say anything further.
“I suppose we’ll go to the house in France for the most part” Regulus stated. “Not that it matters that much where we are, my parents will still attend all their usual meetings and social arrangments in London, Sirius isn’t allowed to go to Potter’s this year so I suppose we’ll play at happy families for a day or two until he decides he’s fed up and pisses our parents off.” Regulus rubbed his temples like he was trying to relieve the future stress he was about to endure.
“I do love that house” Pandora exclaimed trying to move the subjects on from families.
“I do too,” Regulus replied his eyes seeming to drift off to a memory. “You’re all coming to our summer ball right?” he asked the group.
“I don’t think so mate” Barty sighed.
Evan looked up from the book he’d been reading with alarm in his eyes. “What do you mean? I thought your father made a point to come to our balls? You said he thought it looked good to be mingling with our families.” He said quickly, a glimmer of desperation in his voice.
Barty looked at him and smiled sadly. “Sorry Ev, with everything going on Dad wants the Ministry to distance themselves from anyone involved, on either side. He wrote to me the other month asking me to distance myself from you all, of course, I told him where to stick it and I haven't heard anything since, no idea what will be waiting for me at home tomorrow.” He looked like he was about to throw up.
At once Evan lunged forward, looking like he was about to embrace Barty but hesitated and just patted him on the arm instead. “Why didn’t you say anything?” he asked.
“Well, there was nothing to say, there's no way I’m going to stop hanging with you lots just to help his image, he doesn't deserve it. If anything it just wants me to be around you bunch of wrong’uns more” He smirked a glimmer of laughter in his voice.
“Well in that case stay with us” Evan declared getting closer to Barty and looking at Pandora for encouragement. “Our parents love you…well they love the fact that your father is so high in the Minerstry…” He got quieter as he finished his sentence and Pandora swatted him on the arm.
Regulus snorted at this and Barty grew a wicked smile, “Thanks for the offer Ev, but I'm not in the market to help the image of any ancient wizarding family, although it would truly rile my father up if I did, I’ll see if I can sneak out to the ball Reg, I mean it’s not like he’s ever at home to catch me anyway, it’ll be worth whatever happens when he finds out” He replied.
Regulus smiled gently at him, and the three boys did then all embrace before Barty hit the other two on the backs of the head and they all burst out laughing. “Stop being soft, I thought you were the sons of the noblest houses in England” he teased.
They were all still chuckling when they heard Pandora sob. They quickly turned to her to see a tear running down her face. She swiftly wiped it away but another replaced it immediately.
Evan moved over to his sister and embraced her. “What’s up Dora? We can all still write.” He said trying to comfort her.
But she just looked ahead at Regulus and Barty with a disturbed expression. “I just have this feeling that nothing will be the same after this summer, I feel like something awful is going to happen and nothing will be right again.” Her voice sounded sombre.
Regulus gulped and looked at Barty. He’d known something was happening for a while now, he knew his parents had been more distant, preoccupied with things that didn't yet include him and Sirius. Something in his stomach knew that Pandora was right, after this summer his world would always be a little darker and there was nothing he could do to escape it.

Scared. Nervous. Anxious
Tomorrow, February 13, 2023 is the start of my orientation for work. I'm scared, nervous, anxious, and filled with so many mixed emotions. I've waited long to get a job and now it's finally here. Idk what to expect, but I'm hoping that it'll all go well. Vacation time is now over & here's to the start of the real world. Everything that I worked hard for is now here. I'm about to fulfill my dream of working as an RN.
