Tiberius was wandering morosely down the hall. He couldn't shake the readings he and Edem had done, and sitting in the common room hadn't helped any, so he'd decided to wander the castle. Shuffling his feet and kicking at nothing in particular, he'd made it all the way down to the hourglasses before putting his back to the wall and sliding down until he hit the floor.

Looking up, he was please to see Ravenclaw still in the lead, and only barely noticed the older Slytherin girl tapping at the glasses. He watched the gems fall for a bit, distracted, before drifting back to the readings they'd done down the hall. Evil. Secrecy. Death. It was all too much for an eleven-year-old. Wrapping his arms around his knees, he pulled them close to his chest and then put his head down. He started to cry then, in the hall, ever so softly; unless you were looking right at him, you wouldn't even know he was there.

He was starting to think he wanted to go home.
