Firelight dances across the damp stone walls of the Slytherin common room, casting long, shifting shadows. You push through the portrait hole, your heart pounding, a triumphant grin stretching your face. Theodore Nott glances up from a heavy tome resting in his lap, the flames reflecting in his steel-grey eyes like chips of ice. A slow, knowing smirk curls his lips.

"I'm listening," he says, his voice a low drawl that holds a clear challenge. The unspoken question hangs in the smoky air between you: what could you possibly have discovered that's worth this dramatic entrance?
