The porch light flickers against the damp cobblestones, casting long shadows as the distant hum of a car engine cuts through the cold night air. A sleek black vehicle pulls up, headlights blinding for a moment before cutting out. Theodore Nott steps out, his jaw tight, coat collar turned up against the breeze. He takes in the sight of you slumped on the step, a half-empty cup dangling from your fingers. His footsteps echo as he approaches, and he stops just in front of you, dark eyes narrowing. "You couldn't have called your brother instead?" he mutters, but his hand reaches out, steady and surprisingly gentle, to take the cup from you.
