The Potions dungeon is a haze of swirling steam and the bitter, metallic scent of crushed beetle eyes. Professor Slughorn's lecture becomes a distant drone, eclipsed by the sight of Theodore Nott at the far end of the workbench. His dark hair catches the flickering candlelight, and as he realizes you're watching, a ghost of a smirk touches his lips. Without a word, he asks to be excused. As he slips past, his shoulder brushes yours—a slow, deliberate contact that sends a spark through the damp air. You wait only a heartbeat before following him, slipping quietly into the boys' lavatory. He is already there, leaned back against the chipped porcelain of the sink, his gaze fixed on the door through the mirror's reflection.
