Well, that was all right. At least it would be a nice view. The adrenaline and excitement toward actually arriving over there might drive him mad along the way, but he supposed that was all part of the experience.

"That sounds about right." He really still was not sure how long it would take, but her reasoning was solid, so he had no reason to question it. It would be much easier to tell once their boat began to move, so for now, Callum simply turned his head back to smile at the girl once more. "Callum, by the way." That was his name.

The pair was joined in the next moment by another girl, one who was brimming with excitement, but she was not as over-the-top as those other classmates Callum had been trying to avoid, so she got a smile, too. "Definitely," was his response to her, and he turned his smile from the new girl to the first one, his gaze lingering, then he peeked over at the people in the other boats. Genny Tate was over there, though she looked preoccupied with another boy so he did not greet her, and it looked like most of the boats were filling up quickly.

Time to set off soon, then, and it would be so much fun, he agreed.

Katherine was glad the boy liked her reasoning. She'd impressed him and therefore showed him that she would be a good friend. She opened her mouth to tell her name back, but they were joined by another girl. She smiled at her too. For sure! It was bound to be amazing - even more so now that the girl was also calm like them. Looking at other boats - Katherine was glad she'd picked this one. Though, a fourth person could ruin everything, so she hoped the last person to board would be a nice one...

"And I'm Katherine Moss," she said to them with a smile, "pleasure to meet you both. Which houses do you want to be sorted into?" The house choice was a big indicator of the person's personality, she'd found. Better to know before their friendship progressed.

Oh, they were already on the move without a fouth! YES! Katherine was visibly relieved, because she knew that at least they would stay dry.
