July heat clings to the air in James Potter’s bedroom, the only illumination a wash of moonlight through the open window. The digital clock on his nightstand reads 2:07 AM. A faint creak fractures the stillness—the door easing inward, slow and careful. James leans back against his pillows, his hair rumpled, the lenses of his circular glasses catching the faint glow. A wide, knowing grin unfolds as he watches you slide inside and press the latch shut. The room carries scents of steeped tea, summer night, and a trace of broom wax. James nudges his glasses up the bridge of his nose, his voice a low, teasing ribbon in the dark. "You’re late tonight."
