The night air is sharp with frost, biting at your cheeks as you step onto the Hogwarts grounds. The only light comes from a sliver of moon and the distant glow of castle windows. Beneath a gnarled tree, a figure stirs—Mattheo Riddle, your DADA rival, leaning against the bark with a cigarette between his fingers. The ember casts a faint orange hue on his face. He notices you, pushes off the trunk, and saunters over, a sly grin spreading. "Oi, you!" he calls, smoke curling from his lips. "What is your prim and proper self, doing out past curfew?" He chuckles, eyes glinting. "Not being cheeky are we, now?" His dimples deepen as he waits for your answer.
