That would give her the best place to be talking to both Daehyun and Bartholomew.

Although her curls were going frizzy now that they were starting to dry. With that in thought she dropped her head forward to wet her hair again.

"It is really nice," she agreed with the squid. "It's really nice to meet you Bartholomew, I'm Shera." Because she was definitely going to be around long into the future, just because the lake gave her a place to swim.

"Have you been in this lake all of your life?"

Shera shifted her entire body around, in order to be able to easily look up at Daehyun. Would he join her in the water? By like, putting his feet in?

Daehyun had to trust her now? Shera wasn't sure if that was part of him joking or if he actually meant it, but it did end in her giving him the biggest smile that she had. And that was saying something considering her general expression was just beaming at everyone. She was also determined. She was not going to let him down. He was definitely still worried about it, and Shera could kind of but not really understand that.

"I will bring her out soon, she just spends a lot of time sleeping at the moment so she stays in Ravenclaw tower most of the time at the moment," Shera explained, thinking about the little cat. She had bought her for that exact reason, because that little cat could sleep waaaay longer than Shera could.

She couldn't hold back her giggle about the comment of the traitorous owl, but she shrugged her shoulders. "I think all owls are like that," or at least it was her personal experience. She managed to give him a mischievous smile. "I mean, I tend to bribe them with treats anyways. And I've found building up a relationship of 'I bring you food' in advance is always very effective."

Her head tilted to the side curiously. "The room of requirement?" she mimicked as a question. It sounded vaguely familiar, but she couldn't for sure say that she knew what it was.

"Yeah... I mean my grandma is the same but... my parents just never cared," she explained with a light shrug. The 'oh' made her assume that he also had experience like that. But she was aware that maybe the opposite was true and it was his shock at never having experience that way of thinking.


Daehyun could only blink in both confusion and fascination when, in a flash, Shera's towel had been discarded, and she was back in the water, looking like a mermaid that belonged in there, meanwhile he would've been a complete mess struggling to stay alive a moment longer. She gave him a look that he wasn't sure what it meant, but all he did was move closer to the lake, but stopped before his shoes could get wet. That was as far as he would go.

He smiled at Shera's description of her kitten. "Sounds like her human companion to me," he teased. He didn't fail to notice in the short amount of time he'd known her that she was either energetic or not, which he found fascinating how she could switch in between such polar opposites.

He couldn't help but laugh when Shera was telling him about her very effective way of befriending owls - and pretty much any creature. "That is so sad, but so true," he shook his head, smiling. "Just when you think they're your friend, they leave you for whoever's got the better treats." Little traitors. But he still loved them endlessly.

Daehyun nodded enthusiastically. "Father's told me about it. There's a room in the castle that models itself according to your needs!" How AWESOME was that? "We have to look for it!" She could use it whenever she got locked out of her common room, he could use it whenever he didn't want to be bothered by anyone (which was most of the time), and the possibilities were endless!

He sobered up when she'd mentioned her grandmother, unable to say anything - he only hoped she didn't take his silence the wrong way, but he also didn't feel like sharing that his whole family had that kind of mindset. He didn't want to share not because he didn't want to tell her, but only because he feared she'd think he was the same, and that couldn't have been farther from the truth.
