Keeping up appearances
Who: Severus Snape and OPEN
What: Severus has been searching the city for a few days now, trying to find a way out with no success. He has also been looking for a temporary home among the abandoned buildings.
When: Tonight
Where: One of the taller abandoned buildings in the city - a rather Gothic looking place
Warnings: None as of yet
Status: [ In Progress ]
High above the city a dark shape moved among spires and long broken bits of rock. There was an almost other-worldly nature to the creature's movement as it glided along in the deepening twilight. When it finally paused one could see that the shape was actually a man dressed in black robes. His pale skin stuck out from the rest of his attire from behind curtains of black hair.
Severus was accustomed to making do on very little but this was starting to challenge even him. He had sought out a place to live for several days now and each time found himself being displaced by another who had gotten their first. Until he knew more about his new surroundings the wizard had little incentive to fight. Who knew when a foe could be a helpful friend? One could not take the chance of making too many enemies.
His encounter with James Potter had shaken him more than he let on. If the subject ever came up how would he explain the course his life had taken? Severus had no desire to be hunted down again but he also did not wish to share his life story with a man he loathed. Perhaps the problem would never arise, though, because James did not seem to believe what his own eyes and ears were telling him to be true. Such a fool.
The nights were so dark here. It made travel much easier but also more dangerous. Severus made the mistake letting down his guard for one moment too long and his punishment was someone getting the drop on him. He whipped around at the sound of footsteps, wand drawn.
