 For River/Stefan! Rhibear ~ Madam Solo ~ Dark Brooding Girl ~ Accio Jedi ~ Gryffinclaw ~ Just a doll
Gaston leaned against the wall, his eyes tightly closed against the sudden wave of wooziness that threatened to overwhelm him. The charms professor was looking worse for wear lately. He was pale and thin and his once bright blue eyes were now sunken and rimmed in dark shadows. His hair and beard were longer than normal, and there were a few gray strands mixed with the black.
It seemed the lack of food and sleep over the past few months were catching up to him. The dizzy spells were getting worse, but he tried to ignore it. At least if he was tired and starved, it distracted him from being sad. He considered paying a visit to the hospital wing but decided against it. There was no need to annoy River when he had real emergencies to attend to, and besides, he couldn't heal a broken heart. He would just go back to his own office instead.
The hall spun as Gaston blinked and he wobbled unsteadily. He tried to grab onto something for balance, but it was too late. He fell and was out cold.
