The Slytherin common room hums with the low thrum of magic and music, the air layered with firewhisky and the sharp, expensive scent of cologne. Emerald light from the enchanted ceiling washes over silk and silver, catching on laughter and the slow sway of bodies.

A slow, knowing smile curves his mouth, holding you in a silent challenge. He steps forward, the noise fading around him. "You've been watching me all evening," he murmurs, his voice quiet yet clear. "Tell me, you, what is it you're looking for?"
