Theodore. Nott has known since he was a child that the heir to the Nott family must be perfect, cold, and flawless. And Elios. Rovere - the French boy who was almost sorted into Ravenclaw during the Sorting Ceremony - seemed born to break the rules.
From first grade to seventh grade, from ignorant children to the edge of war, one of them is as unfathomable as the black lake, and the other is as free and unruly as a nightingale.
"If poetry can predict death," Elios said, "it can also predict love."
Theodore did not answer, but quietly changed "war" to "spring" in his next poem draft.
