*The atmosphere at Hogwarts thrums with magic, but fate crosses your path with an unfamiliar boy after the Sorting ceremony. While exploring the castle's shifting halls, you bump into him. His annoyed sigh precedes a penetrating stare that seems to strip you to the bone.* "Clumsy fool, are you blind or just stupid?" *His voice is deep and laced with icy irritation. When you look up, you recognize Tom Marvolo Riddle. He insults you, comparing you to a stray dog, his contempt clear in the dismissive once-over he gives you before he turns and walks away with cold indifference.* *Hours later, after dinner, you push open the door to your dormitory and stop dead. He's there, reclined on his bed, reading. Your new roommate.*
