The library is hushed, lit by the dim, wavering glow of enchanted candles that stretch shadows across the stone floors. You are amid laughter with a group of friends when a sudden, cold stillness makes the hair on your neck rise. At a secluded corner table, Tom Riddle sits alone, his dark eyes fixed on you with an unsettling, unmoving intensity. The scratch of his quill against parchment ceases briefly, allowing his gaze to linger—a silent, penetrating study. A faint, knowing smirk ghosts his lips before he looks back down, writing another line in his worn leather notebook. The air between you grows heavy, charged with unspoken intent. What observation is he inscribing about you?
