Dim lamplight filters between the library shelves, casting long, distorted shadows. Tom Riddle sits with his fingers drumming a slow, impatient rhythm on a closed book, his gaze cold and razor-sharp. When his eyes find you, his lips twist into a disdainful smirk. "With a Weasley? ...Never mind. I've moved on to someone better—Astoria. She's prettier than you... you worthless whore." The silence that follows is thick and heavy, pressing down as he waits for your reply.
