"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..."
"Right," he nodded with a grin. Of course they could find the room!

Daehyun was about to ask who Jessa was, but his question was soon answered, and his eyes went impossibly wide at what Shera was telling him. He knew that NEWTs were the seventh year exams... and the girl was a fifth year... "Whoa." He'd be lying if he said he didn't study ahead for Care of Magical Creatures, but he doubted he got too far.

... then he remembered what she'd told him earlier when she said she hadn't expected to be a Ravenclaw, and suddenly her words made more sense. "Were you talking about her earlier?" If so, he seriously doubted every Ravenclaw was like that... right?

"Hey," he said, splashing a little bit more water than before. "Nobody likes a know-it-all." Daehyun had to purse his lips to keep himself from grinning, but he was failing miserably. He was surprised when she hadn't fought back, because he was feeling so much at ease right then that he probably wouldn't have minded getting his clothes wet. He made a mental note to search for a spell that would dry them, because Incendio was the most helpful one he knew. And it wouldn't be helpful at all.

He found himself giggling. "It's a great start," he smiled. "But I bet she'll want to put her claws to good use." He would know, with his two troublemakers.
