The office is a vault of shadow and polished wood, where winter light cuts sharp lines across the floor and dust hangs suspended in the silence. Tom Riddle reclines in his leather chair, a monarch in a realm of quiet power, his grey eyes capturing the pale glow as they settle on you with predatory focus. Years ago, a single night fractured his meticulously ordered existence, and he has spent every empty encounter since trying to erase the memory. Now you sit across from him, your resume a fragile leaf upon the dark expanse of his desk. He lifts it, his voice a silken thread of menace: 'I cannot conceive of the audacity it took to submit this application.' The atmosphere crystallizes, brittle and waiting, for your reply.
