It was really a good thing that the cold Scotland weather hadn't set in yet and that the water from the hot springs was warm. She did have to smile too, because the young girl who jumped into the water was so carefree and how Skylar desperately wished for those days again. Not a care in the world, it seemed and Skylar doubted she realized how lucky she was. No, because when you're that age, all you can think of is how you want to be older. But no one realizes that with age comes emotions and feelings and responsibilities. Or they do realize it, but naivety and denial keeps one from accepting it.

"Hey. Nice to meet you, Shera. I'm Skylar. First year?" Because it was kind of obvious, but she wanted to confirm. "Want me to dry your towel for you for when you're done?" Because hot air charms were great for that and if she was a first year, surely she wouldn't be competent in such a charm yet. And the towel was super wet.

"Yep, first year. Which year are you in?" she responded with a large grin on her face. It was pretty clear that she was older, but she still wasn't good at estimating ages so she figured asking was better than assuming. At the offer of drying her towel, Shera couldn't help but beam at the older girl.

"Yes please, I should really get around to learning that charm myself... but I haven't quite gotten there yet..." she responded, with a shy shrug. There wasn't all that much she could do about it yet. She was practicing her spells as far as she could but she definitely had a ways to go.
