Forced (Draco)

"He didn't want any of it"

There was more to him than most people (he thinks sadly of the perfect Boy-Who-Lived and the others with him) think. He was a Slytherin because he had to be, because of his father's reputation. He was a Death Eater because it was that or watch his mother die in absolute agony. He was 'friends' with peers from influential families because otherwise he'd have no-one. He was cruel because that was how he had been brought up – kindness was a weakness, something that would be exposed and turned against him. But that wasn't him; he didn't want any of it.

Exactly 100 words. I don't know how many of these I'll end up writing, and prompts are very welcome (please use the formTheme, Character, "Prompt" i.e. Forced, Draco, "He didn't want any of it"). Any character is welcome, no matter how obscure (no OCs please). I'll only use each theme once, and I want to vary the characters so if you give me a character that I've already got one for, you'll have to wait a while for it.

Thanks for reading!
