Summary
Steve fiddles with the hem of the nightdress they'd given him to wear.
It’s soft at least, flowing and comfortable. White. Pure.
Virginal.
It barely covers the top of Steve’s thighs.
He tugs as the nightgown again, embarrassment ticking at him. It was the only thing he’d been given to wear though, so it’s either this or nude, which isn’t really an option. He’s still resentful of it though.
A large moth flutters across the room, the noise of it’s wings barely discernible over the crackle of the fire.
Steve's trapped in the castle; his only option is to wait for the monster to arrive.

Summary
They’re eating thick slices of bread, cold meat and cheese and blackberries that leave a bloody smear on the plate where the delicate skins are burst.
“Would you like me to make you a plate?” one of the girls asks Steve, where he’s just standing near the head of the table.
“No,” he clears his throat, “no thank you. You could lead me to Sir Edwards chambers.”
The people closest pause, and then continue eating like they’re pretending not to listen very fiercely.
