Dude.. you could try to sketch from memory again.. like you did for the Great Hall on the train and over the summer. Hmm that wasn't exactly a bad idea, but the question remained if there was going to be anything that made him forget the scene in front of his blue eyes; regardless of that thought.. he took a couple of mental photographs and proceeding to walk a bit closer to the water.

Stella had heard other Eagles discussing that there had been changes to the grounds, the day after everyone had gotten to the castle, and, considering they had a new groundskeeper, she hadn't had reason to doubt it. Even if part of her missed Monsieur Stryker, just because she'd thought he would have been somebody she could speak French to. She'd never actually tried to, but that didn't change the fact she missed the former groundskeeper a little. She'd wanted to explore the new sights, though, anyway, and after stopping off in the Great Hall for breakfast, she'd taken an extra piece of unbuttered toast and headed out to the grounds to look for the duck pond.

Crumbling the toast in her hand as she walked, she tossed a few crumbs at some of the other birds she passed, but closed her hand again as she came across the pond in question. She didn't want to waste too much of her toast on birds other than the ducks she'd brought it for. And, moving closer, she grinned as she saw a familiar figure heading for the water as well. Creeping up behind Matt, she wrapped her arms around him before he got too much closer to the ducks. "Are you turning into a duck on me?," she teased, before letting her boyfriend go and moving next to him as she tossed some of her toast crumbles into the water where the ducks were congregating. "I don't think I have enough bread for you and the ducks." He'd seemed so focused, she hadn't been able to resist. Plus, she hadn't really seen him much since they'd gotten to the school, which made this moment even better.
