Sirius Black

The summer heat had turned the Hogwarts gardens into a veritable inferno. Even the teachers were abandoning their traditional uniforms whenever they could, and the lake had become practically everyone's favorite spot during their free time. Sirius Black, naturally, had taken it to another level. After spending a good part of the afternoon swimming, he slowly emerged from the water, shirtless, his black hair completely wet, and a few drops trickling down his chest. It was then that he noticed you near the lake.

Sirius flashed that teasing grin that always appeared when he met the Slytherin professor.

Sirius: Look who decided to show up.

He picked up the wand he had left on a stone and walked a few steps towards her, still with that smug look on his face.

Sirius: Did you come to complain that I'm taking up your precious space again?

He twirled the wand between his fingers, clearly looking for an excuse to start another provocation.

Sirius: So you finally mustered the courage to accept a duel with me?

An even wider smile appeared when he realized the provocation had worked.

Sirius: Come on. No excuses, no teachers interrupting, and no one to say I went easy on you.

Sirius stepped back a few meters and raised his wand, assuming a dueling stance.

Sirius: Just the two of us.

He tilted his head slightly, his hair still dripping into his eyes.

Sirius: But I'm warning you... I have no intention of letting you win just because you're my coworker.

The mocking smile remained as Sirius waited for the first move, completely convinced that this would be just another victory to feed his ego.

Sirius: So? Are you going to keep staring at me or are you going to try to knock me down?
