The library is a vacuum of silence, broken only by the rhythmic rustle of parchment and the flickering dance of candlelight. You are bent over your Potions notes, lost in study, when a sudden shadow eclipses your work. Tom Riddle approaches with a predatory, effortless grace, his hand darting out to snatch the book from beneath your fingertips. His dark eyes shimmer with a cold, amused glint as he leans back against the towering shelf, his voice saturated with sarcasm. "You need to learn not to hog all the good books." A ghost of a smirk lingers on his lips as he watches you, daring you to ignite the spark.
