Not that he didn't watch them all the time and take them places but a carnival was different... a small child could get lost in the blink of an eye.

Koen glanced at his girlfriend and smiled. Leave it to her to ask about the fairness of an older Zouwu carrying people around. "Maybe it enjoys it though? Plus it gets some exercise?" He honestly didn't know how the Zouwu felt. "I'm all for a ride on the much younger one though if you are." From what he could see that way seemed way more active for it's own good and it would surely be a ride to remember.

With a gentle tug on her hand, Koen steered them over to the correct line so they could wait for their turn.
Stasya herself had been splitting her attention between listening to conversations going on around them and watching the Zouwu to determine exactly if she thought the carnival was being humane enough allowing people to treat an elderly Zouwu as a tour guide. Not that she needed a tour of Diagon Alley, having spent time here for nearly a decade when she wasn’t at school. The sixteen-year-old prefect simply felt like that was a better way of thinking about it instead of treating the poor creature like a Muggle automobile or something. “I’d think it might want to get its exercise in a way that it wants to, though. Not being forced to carry random kids around a predetermined course,” she mused aloud, the hints of the girl who had protested killing insects in Potions class and nearly dropped Herbology simply because she hadn’t backed out of the mandrake lesson that hadn’t been required.

Conversely, she still was curious what riding on a Zouwu would feel like, even if so far she wasn’t adding the creature to her endless list of creatures she wanted to adopt. Maybe it wasn’t endless, exactly, as she’d not added any creatures to it since she’d decided she wanted a winged horse in addition to the goat he suspected Derf was still trying to acquire for her.

Koen’s question was rewarded with a grin, either way, as she joined him in the appropriate line. “I’m not against it.” She was a Gryffindor, after all. The bravery and recklessness showed in different ways than most other Lions, but it was still there.
