She smiled and shook her head when Daichi spoke, her expression stern but soft at the same time. "No, Daichi, you are not little anymore," she agreed. He WAS really tall now. But that was besides the point. "Which is why I know you can be honest with me." Because that is what big kids did, her father had said that to her when she was his age anyway. She turned her gaze on her younger lioness. "You two Tayla."

Kurumi looked for something to lean on, since it seemed as though there might be a story behind this, but there wasn't anything. Alas.

She peered a little closer to Daichi's face and studied his expression. He was a terrible liar, an adorable one, but also a terrible one. "Daichi, there is nothing wrong with missing him. I have a doll that my grandmother made me that was given to me the day I was born and I still refuse to go anywhere with out it. She is sitting on my bed in the school dorms right now."

And then Thea spoke and Kurumi's suspicions were confirmed. At least that was all out in the open now, right? Smiling, she looked back at the two students. "Did...either of you think to ask the Groundskeeper about the ducks? I'm not suggesting that he would have let you keep one as a pet in your dorm room, but he might have let you be his special helper. Someone who could help him take care of the ducks." Now here was the kicker to this idea. "That way, you wouldn't have had just ONE duck...you could have considered them all your pets."

Yes, it wouldn't have been the same as having one in the common room quacking away, but these were wild ducks, not pets. Kurumi had tried to keep a pet squirrel once. Her mother had been furious when she had seen the mess the tiny creature had made trying to escape their home. Rice paper walls torn to shreds...among other things. Kurumi just wanted to cuddle it and love it. The squirrel didn't want any of that and had even bitten her. That had been an awkward hospital visit.


Thea laughed out loud. OF COURSE! Dear Merlin, it was all so obvious. The Groundskeeper! 'Maybe we could ask him then, for Daichi..' She flashed a smile at the Slytherin.
'Yeah.. there was no point in lying about it. How could we explain diving for a duck..' Thea wrinkled her nose. It would of been difficult.

She turned to wait for Daichi's expression at the idea of having more than one duck.
'Do you know where we found find the Groundskeeper?' She asked Kurumi. Thea hadn't even spoken to him before.. she wasn't even sure she knew what they looked like.
