So apparently there are actually people who read this? Like yall I posted my last one not twenty minutes ago and there's like three people who read them? Not dipping? (Well maybe not by when this is published but I am in shock? Let me recover?)
Anyways,, I am proud to say I genuinely enjoy what idea this particular one shot includes, even though I'm absolutely going to butcher it so fucking badly :)

Also before I forget!!! I changed the cover of the whole thing, it's from an account I found on Instagram who posts a whole lot of amazing shit,, they recently posted one of the potters but the malfoys one makes my heart do a lil smile yknow?

🔎- (This is written from 3RD perspective (authors))

Stretching to Olympus unseen, the clear turquoise of the sky could be made out, no cloud nor blemish in the picture, just above the great hall inside of the ancient one-too many walls of Hogwarts.

At the table clad in patterns of green and silver, Thomas Riddle sat in the centre, surrounded by his multiple lackeys. He sat poise and perfect as ever, elegance oozing out from him in waves. A condescending smile stood out predominantly on his usual sneering face. He had just found out the one bit of information he had spent many weeks trying to find out, and he was genuinely proud of himself for discovering it.

The halls' large oak doors flew open with a bang, and out from behind came a tall, petite figure, a wild curly black mane for hair and striking grey eyes. Their robes billowed out behind them with a scream that said 'I'm superior to you', and they billowed out until they came to an elegant steep at the slytherin table.
"Always one for dramatics", stated one Tom Riddle, his eyebrow delicately curved in obvious amusement. The other only gave a harsh smirk in retort.
"Of  course Lyrin, what has you so showy today then?"
"Awe Tom, it's cute that you think something happened to me personally. No. I heard you found out what we were looking for"
"What I was looking for".
Lyrin gave a roll of her eyes at his unsuccessful attempt to make it seem like he's smarter than he was 'as if he could get anywhere without me', she thought.
"No Tom, you're mistaken. We are friends are we not? I don't think you have perhaps noticed, we are in this thing together, we don't leave one another alone", she recited
"Perhaps... perhaps we shouldn't be having this conversation near prying eyes" was Tom's skeptical reply, his eyes wandering over the table suggestively at one Abraxas Malfoy. Lyrin Belcia followed the trail of his nod, her eyes hardening when she found Malfoy not so subtly listening, looking way too disinterested for his own good.

Once again, she rolled her eyes at his obvious peering and turned to sit opposite to Tom, piling a small, perfect sphere of mashed potatoes, a portion of pork and a few spoonfuls of vegetables. On the side of the plate sat two Yorkshire puddings and five roast potatoes, and then to finish off the meal, some gravy was poured on top; the perfect Sunday dinner one would say.

After they had both finished with their meal (🔎- god I hate that word), they stood up and exited the hall, Lyrin dabbing gently at the sides of her mouth with a napkin, showing off her perfect pureblood etiquette which she had been taught all throughout her life.
It was Thomas's turn to roll his eyes, not sure of the need to be so posh.

"So Thomas, I heard that you found it?", Lyrin began questioning, as soon as they both reached the slytherin common room, needing not to worry about listeners as everyone was still eating in the great hall.
Tom Riddle gave her a scrutinising look and placed a soft 'muffliato' before replying.
"Indeed I did. I found it just this morning"
At that, Lyrin began nearly jumping out from her seat in excitement; "That's great! We can carry out your plans soon"
A smirk spread wide across his face in mirth at her obviously not devious behaviour.
"Do calm down Belcia, after all, we have ages still. Why must we do it straight away? We need plans first"
"Yes, that is true, however. We both know how long you have been planning this and when you found that book in the library last month! Thomas do you understand what this means? You will be undefeatable!" She let out in exasperation.
"Lyrin. I love that you're so enthusiastic, however I still need to talk with Horace about what it really does and how it all works"
"Thomas that book was very specific in how horcruxes work. Whatever do you need his information for? Aren't you afraid he'd go running off to Dumbledore or worse, Dippet?"
"I need him to explain what the limits and risks are" Thomas said, slightly unnerved by what exactly she had just said.
"Tom, you know what will happen"
"I know, just. It's that I need more information than it can make me live forever"
"What more information do you need?"
"How to make one. What it does to the mind. Will it hurt? Maybe I have more questions?"
Lyrin sighed and left to go up to her dormitory.
