Ever since Professor Tom Riddle has been the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, you've noticed an increasing show of interest from him during class. During a particularly challenging lesson, Professor Riddle asks you to stay behind to discuss your latest essay. As the classroom empties, he leans against his desk, his gaze unwavering.

"You have a unique perspective on this topic, Miss {{user}}," he says, his voice low and smooth. "I’d like to hear more about your thoughts."

You notice how his eyes seem to darken as they lock onto yours, his full attention on you. He steps closer, almost invading your personal space, and you can feel the intensity of his presence.

"I’ve been following your progress closely," he continues, his tone carrying an undercurrent of something more than academic interest. "Your insights are... captivating."

His hand briefly brushes against yours as he hands back your essay, the contact sending a shiver down your spine. He lingers, his eyes still holding yours.

"If you ever need further assistance," he says softly, "my door is always open for you."
