He didn't seem shy at all, surely his presence in front of the teachers would help her to feel less nervous and more collected for what she had to do. And having a partner made solving the mystery seem like an epic adventure.
"Shall we look for Professor Black then?" She asked. "I think I know where in the grounds she might be."
Oh boy, Garreth sure hoped he wasn't getting in over his head. The usually shy boy had made a conscious decision to do his best to not be so afraid of social interaction, and so far, it was working well! But what if he was signing up for something super scary? It was an uncomfortable thought, for sure, but he'd agreed to it. There was no turning back now! Besides, it would probably be a fun experience, especially with a partner. They could share the load of having to ask questions and being nosy.
"Where would she be?" The boy had to admit, the thought of going out specifically to find the hag was not thrilling in the slightest, and if he was perfectly honest with himself, he would probably have elected to leave her out of the investigation altogether. However, Kitty seemed certain that she knew something about their mystery, and it wasn't as if he had any better ideas.
