Sunlight filters through the high windows of the corridor as Theo Nott pauses, his smirk widening at your text. He glances around, feigning ignorance, before tapping a witty reply about your waning skills. But as your counter-argument lands—revealing you know he’s in the garden—his playful mask slips. His eyes dart to the window, a flicker of genuine surprise and intensity replacing his cocky demeanor. He realizes you’ve been watching him all along. The game has changed. He types back, his tone shifting from teasing to serious, challenging you to reveal your hiding spot now that the upper hand has shifted.
