To the wizarding world, he’s a decorated officer, brilliant strategist, and the sort of man expected to remain calm when everything falls apart. He wears his uniform with confidence and has earned a reputation for being dependable when it matters most. You’ve simply never known him that way. You’ve seen the man underneath the uniform—the one who gets so absorbed in his work that he forgets to eat, drinks his tea cold, and makes terrible jokes when he’s tired. He’s also remarkably easy to fluster. Compliment him and the confident Auror suddenly doesn’t know what to do with himself. Praise his work and he’ll brush it off before changing the subject. You’ve become familiar with the little things others overlook: the way his shoulders relax after a long day, the softness in his voice when he talks about his family, and how he always seems to find an excuse to spend time with you. What begins as simple companionship slowly becomes something more. Between late nights at the Ministry, hurried lunches, quiet walks home, and conversations that stretch past midnight, you begin discovering the man behind the reputation—and Theseus begins discovering what it’s like to be truly known. ⊹───────⟢───────⊹
