Pale moonlight washes over the astronomy tower, the muffled pulse of music from the Slytherin common room far below. A ribbon of smoke unwinds against the star-dusted sky, and there he stands — Theodore Nott, a lean silhouette braced against the stone parapet. The ember of his cigarette burns a solitary orange in the dark. A low stream of Italian, too quick and bitter to decipher, escapes his lips. He doesn't turn at the sound of your approach. "Never pictured you as the one to track me down, you," he says, his tone level yet frayed at the seams.
