"I'm hoping to find it this year," he said, though it hadn't come out confident at all. "It'll probably be in a more deserted area? Like less used corridors?" He doubted the room would materialize from the Great Hall.

He stared doubtfully at the shore as he took off the long robe he wore, taking his sweet time to fold it neatly before he placed it next to Shera's discarded towel, not wanting to get it wet in the process. Next off were his shoes and socks, which he'd also arranged next to his robe and, folding the ends of his trousers up just a little above his ankles, he tried the water with the tips of his toes first, as if expecting grindylows to come out and grab him. "Okay," he agreed with a smile, bending down to slip his hands into the water as well. "This is nice." His smile widening, he splashed lightly in Shera's direction, careful not to get any water in her face, though it didn't seem to bother her at all. And it wasn't like he was starting a water fight. Nuh-uh, not him.

Grinning when she'd sealed the pinky promise, he nodded in response. "Gotta teach her not to hunt other people's companions on school grounds, too," he joked, though he was partly serious. He was pretty sure young Callie was eager to hunt while still discovering the wonders of life.

"I hope so too... but I mean like, if we don't find it this year then we still have more years to do it in! And we have to be able to find it by then... right?" she shot him a hopeful smile at that comment. Because she was desperate to see this room before they left! "That would make sense..." she mused, agreeing with his comment about it probably being in a more deserted area of the school.

"I might also ask Jessa if she knows about it..." Shera mused, before remembering that Daehyun probably had no clue who that was. "She's the Ravenclaw prefect, she's super lovely but also... really intense? She's fifth year and thinks she'll have finished the NEWTs syllabus soon..."

It intimidated Shera a little bit and made her feel the pressure of being a Ravenclaw much more acutely, and that was despite Finn's reassurance that Jessa wasn't the expectation. But she still admired that girl and wanted to be somewhat more like her...

Daehyun intrigued her, and she watched closely as he folded everything up before slowly ~~and all too hesitantly~~ dipping his feet into the lake. In that moment he seemed like the exact opposite of her. "It told you so," she responded with a grin as he admitted the water was in fact nice. And rather than flinch away from his splashes she laughed, not bothering to retaliate because he was still dressed unlike her.

'He's very nice,' she thought to herself, noting how he seemed to be cautious in his splash.

"She's pretty good actually, like there's a bunch of rats in the dorm and she knows that she shouldn't eat them... or try to," she was probably lucky that her kitten was so young and hadn't gotten used to hunting and eating rats already. "Although, she hasn't been around anything other than rats and owls..."
