toscas_kiss: Tosca's Kiss Steampunk Kiss (Hope is the dregs in a cup of poisonwine)
Ficlet written for the [livejournal.com profile] hp100 Challenge #2 "Your character [Draco, in this case] looks into the mirror of Erised. What do they see?":


In his sixteenth year he discovered the mirror hidden in one of the school’s myriad forgotten chambers. The dark surface offered back his pale reflection and what should be. What would be.

He found it once more amidst smouldering embers and charred stones; bright, metallic, unbroken. It revealed only himself, and he claimed it as part of the victor’s spoils.

He looked into the mirror the day after his father’s state funeral - a grim, paranoid affair - and it showed him the world the way it had been. But that was lost, all lost. He covered the glass and never looked again.
