Devin shivered slightly as most of his skin was exposed. He had not been thinking at all when he got out of bed in his sleepy state of confusion. All he had been thinking about was getting down here as quickly as possible so as not to be late and get in trouble. Perhaps he would have been awake enough to think to throw on some clothes had it not been so ridiculously early.

He stood quietly in fear as Rosier spoke. Oh no. The words consequences and new quarters resonated in his brain. No. Whatever these so-called ‘new quarters’ were, he was sure they couldn’t be more than a prison. Devin listened in horror to the headmaster’s list as students were grabbed from the crowd. A few names stuck out to him: Ashley Fox, Kinsay James, Kale Trent,and Mavis Trent. It could be no accident that most of those on the list were muggleborn. Oh, Merlin. At this point it was going to be easier to count his friends by who wasn’t on that list. Looking at Ash, his eyes were filled with concern of what would happen to his friend. I’m so sorry, he wanted to say but he didn’t dare speak up. He flinched as Kinsay was grabbed from next to him. Now he really felt exposed because everyone who was watching The Hoods take Kinsay were sure to notice him standing next to her in his underwear. At least he wasn’t being dragged off to muggleborn jail without clothes. Would his friends who were being taken get to bring their belongings with them? No, Emmerson. What was she thinking speaking up in defense of Kinsay like that? The Hoods came for Emmerson too. Whelp, another occasion for everyone to see him in his underwear. Great. Now nearly half of the Gryffindor girls in his year were gone and everyone had twice had the opportunity to notice him standing out here in his boxers if they had been looking at Kinsay and Emmerson.

Thank Merlin for Tadhg who was giving him some clothes. ”Thank you,” he whispered to Tadhg as he took the hoodie from him and slipped it on over his head. Tadhg was proving himself to be a true friend. Honestly, was there no one else in this school willing to offer an outer layer of clothing or even conjure some clothes? Unfortunately he was not yet skilled enough to make clothes out of nothing. Devin still had the problem of having boxers as the only covering of his bottom half, but at least he didn’t feel completely naked now. He’d have to bring the hoodie back to Tadhg later once he was properly dressed…. Or maybe not seeing as Tadhg was now also being taken by The Hoods. Hopefully Tadhg wouldn’t regret giving up his hoodie when he reached wherever it was they were being taken.

Oh no. Children were being physically abused here. Children were being punched. This was crazy. It wasn’t safe for any of them anymore, not even the purebloods. Watching Rosier torture Professor Williamson, Devin started to feel as though he wasn’t really here experiencing this anymore. His skin felt kind of tingly and his eyes were unfocused. This didn’t feel real. He hardly even noticed when it was all over and Rosier told the remaining students to return to their common rooms. No one was safe anymore if even the professors were being openly tortured.
