Summary: After waking up by a nightmare you have a charming encounter with the Questor.

You and the questor didn't speak too often. But there was no denying there was interest in their eyes when they looked at you, maybe even something more. But it was too early to tell.
"Magician." You heard them speak. You were out in one of the palace halls, a meeting had just ended.
"Questor Valdemar-is there something you need?" Their mask didn't hide their grin.
"I have a question, how do you intend to find the dear count's murderer?" There was silence for a moment.
"Why should I tell you? You're a suspect you know."
"A suspect? Oh how curious." They smiled and turned their head disturbingly.
You didn't find it as creepy as you should have.
"Very well." The Questor walked away after those words, leaving you in confusion and suspicion.

It was late at night, you had woken up after a nightmare about beetles. Walking around the palace to calm yourself down, you catch sight of red beetle crawling up the wall.
You gasped and jumped, your nightmare still engraved in your head. You couldn't help yourself and ran down the hallway, ending up in front of the Library.
You decided that it would be good to sit in there for a bit. It was a library, maybe you would read a book too.
Then, with a facepalm, you remembered you didn't have the damned keys, the only thing that can unlock the library.
You sighed, you were tired and frightened, you just wanted somewhere to feel safe.
Slowly walking back to your room you heard footsteps coming closer and closer until they stopped right behind you. You turned around to be greeted with the slender, and frankly, disturbing Questor, staring at you in the eyes.
"Questor!!" You yelled, shocked. They immediately responded with bending down and putting two of their fingers in your lips to shush you.
"People are sleeping, you want to wake them would you?"
And with that they sneakily walked away, leaving you flustered, and not remembering your nightmare at all.
