It wasn't hard to ignore any confused looks of people she ran past on the way there. This first year was much too focussed on her goal.

Throwing the towel on the ground near to the edge of the lake she'd quickly run in, diving under for a moment to adjust to the temperature of the water. Then she'd quickly returned to float on top of the surface to just enjoy feeling the water.

She could get used to this.
Daehyun needed a break.

He'd woken up with a goal that morning - that of exploring every inch of the castle, except he hadn't considered the actual size of the castle and grounds in his excitement to do so. So there he was, panting and barely dragging his feet towards the lake, which would likely be his last destination of the day. He was going to find a nice place on the grass to sit in the sun and read through his favourite bestiary, which he held close to his chest - not like he hadn't read it at least a dozen times already.

He'd heard of the grindylows in the lake, so it never hurt to learn more.

He was about to sit down, when he'd noticed a towel discarded on the ground... which he found odd.

... until he heard the splashes.

Daehyun's eyes were impossibly wide when he saw none other than Shera, floating on the lake without a care in the world. "Merlin's bea-" he yelped, the rest of what he'd said muffled by a hand he'd smacked over his mouth to shut himself up. Reddening so deep that he resembled a radish at the sight of Shera, he turned his back on her. And he wasn't going to look till she wore at least that towel that he then supposed was hers.
