snape100, for the challenge: Snape's Last Day at Hogwarts.
His long fingers slid from bottle to bottle, gently stroking the glass containers. The act would have been one of adoration or of affection had it been anyone but Severus Snape. He made such a display seem cold and impersonal, a bored and aloof movement made only in passing.
As his fingers moved across the shelves, his dark eyes scanned the room, expressionless. Never resting on one thing too long yet, taking every object in.
When his finger left the last vial, he lowered his hand slowly to his side, his eyes still moving about as if searching for something, as if they were memorizing the room’s fine details.
He strode to the door, his brilliant robes flowing out behind him, his hair whipping back from his face. The great door creaked as he opened it and a draft swirled past him, extinguishing the only lit candle.
Severus glanced back at his darkened lab. His eyes unable to focus in the dark but the picture of it was clear and vivid in his mind.
As he walked out, the door slammed behind him.
