He wore a smile as he spoke but there was honesty attached to each word spoken. The Forbidden Forest had nothing Declan found scarier than what he had already seen sometimes when he closed his eyes.

"She'll be alright," Declan said trying to sound convincing. He meant it. "She often goes missing." This time he chuckled a little awkwardly, rubbing the back of his neck with his free hand. "I think she does it on purpose, honestly. Charlotte has pretty much raised herself."

Plus she probably tired of chattering at Declan and receiving no convincing reply. It wasn't his fault he couldn't decipher her voice. He had a gift not a skill. It wasn't something he controlled.

At her question Declan couldn't help but laugh. It was a striking sound in the surrounding silence only broken by the sound of insects in the night. It was ironic. "Crickets," he answered. "Big fat ones." Declan shrugged at her second question. "I could, technically, but she likes them when they move and I don't want to keep anyone up with their noise."

She looked back at the forest for a moment and shrugged, "You are probably right. Plus to a spider wouldn't mind the scare that is in there." Probably would be a happy place for a spider to be honest. Her thoughts went to the forest and actually wondering if it wouldn't be a bad idea if they all just went out there instead of the castle. Professor M did have them in there earlier this term.

She glanced at him and raised a brow, "So she is always running away and coming back? Aren't you afraid one of the toads or even a grass snake around the lake will get him?" Who knew what other creatures around here would think she was a wonderful snack. "Plus spiders aren't approved pets at school, are they? Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?" SO many questions, but she couldn't help but ask them.

"Hmmmm" She was thinking for a moment. "What if we put them in a box so they can't get out all over the common room, but you could have it there after everyone went to bed to catch her?" It was just a thought really.
