There might’ve been a bit of distraction going on when it came to Stasya and her thought processes, given certain situations. Yet when it had come to the hippocampi themselves, she was entirely focused. So much so that she’d been surprised to find out they were being given the chance to ride them. Granted, it couldn’t be very fun for the hippocampi to be stuck in this tank. She knew that if she’d had a choice she’d much rather get to ride one out in the open water. Where the hippocampus could really be able to be themselves and swim wherever they wanted, although she was hesitant about swimming in the lake now. It was like the difference between getting to ride Cygnus in the paddock or getting to ride her out to the edges of the forest, not that she was really comparing the gorgeous hippocampi to the Granian she regularly visited in the barns ever since first year when she actually had been able to ride her out to the edge of the forest. The only real connection the two creatures had was the horse aspect, after all.

Plus, she wondered if hippocampi understood Mermish, not that she was anywhere close to being skilled with that language even given her lessons the past few terms. It was a question she filed away in her mind to ask Professor Wayland later, once there wasn’t the temptation of actually getting to ride the creatures. Instead, she’d gotten to her feet again and found herself following Chloe over to the wetsuits and quickly changing before heading back over to the tank and climbing back up onto the observation deck.

By the time she’d gotten there, Emmalyn was giving Astraea treats, so she waited patiently until the hippocampus was free again and softly called her over, carefully climbing onto her back only when she decided she’d gained the light blue hippocampus’ trust. It wasn’t like she was going to be reckless, Gryffindor notwithstanding. However, she leaned over the elegant neck once she was settled on her back and lightly stroked her nose. “I’m just going to let you lead,” she whispered, before gathering the mane in her hands and making the clicking noise the professor had demonstrated before lightly tapping the hippocampus’ sides with her heels and a grin broke out on her face as they began swimming.
