A/N: Song: 'King of Silence' by Cibo Matto. I know that I cut out the last verse. It just didn't work, though I do suggest you all to download the song/bye the CD (Stereotype A)

Speakers: JK Rowling. They can be any two people you want them to be.

I can take your pain away

If you tear down your fortress of memory

"So you were a Death Eater! You've turned your life around, and now I want to be a part of it! I'm ready to accept your past as the past, and accept you as my future! Why can't you?"

            "You don't understand. There are still people after me! I can't let you be put into harm's way. They will kill you in way that you could never think of, not in your deepest darkest nightmares. Not in your blackest moment. Not deep in your subconscious, buried under doubts and pains, could you imagine what they'd do."

I can take your pain away

You don't always need to be strong

            "I can take care of my self. I'm not a child that you need to shelter and hide away. I've passed all my courses, and I excelled at Defense Against the Dark Arts. Don't you see that you're the only one holding us back? You're the only thing stopping us. Don't you see it? I love you! Why can't you accept that?"

            "I can't love you back. You're not strong enough. You couldn't put up with everything, fighting for your life every moment. Surprise attacks, they always get you. One day, you'll just want to stop fighting. You'll want to give up and give in, and then you'd be gone. I can't protect you all the time. I can't accept that. I can't accept you."

I can take your pain away

I know we have different shoes

            "You wouldn't have to protect me. Don't you understand? I'd do all of that. I'd do it all, to be with you, like we use to be."

            "We're different people. They say I'm evil. I am. I kill and I torture and I enjoy it. And you? You're good. You always have been. You're the white queen, and I'm the black king."

I can take your pain away

Barefoot we will tear the truth

            "I don't care. I don't care! I'll be your black queen, or you can be my white king!"

            "..."

You are the king of silence

You don't need one word to talk to me

            "I love you."

All I know is we have sympathy

Close your eyes and lean our head on me
