Do they know what it is? Really? "Someone mentioned the Mirror of Erised, and the mirror kind of explains what it is in the inscription... but... it may not be the real one," Jake mused, only just grasping that idea.

"Professor," Jake went on again. "Sorry to be a pain, but do you think that the portrait has anything to do with the school motto? Never Tickle Sleeping Dragons, or something like that... because... someone kinda already tickled it..."

Jake left out the fact that it was his own idea, because it didn't exactly seem smart to reveal, though it seemed like a good idea at the time. He was glad he hadn't been the one to actually tickle... though he still wanted to give it a try with the portrait closed.
Alex shook her head, "No dear, I believe this is the real mirror. The mirror shows you the desire of your heart, and I can tell you from my own experiance, it does."

Once again she looked the mirror up and down, "I'm not sure if it does or not. As far as I know, the mirror dropped out of historical sight after the Sorcerer's Stone was removed from it." she responded quietly.

Suddenly, a thought crossed her mind, "Am I the first professor you've seen in this room so far?"
