The prefect's bathroom was somewhere he needed to desperately avoid now too...so his mud covered shoes dragged the rest of his weary body up to the seventh floor and towards the vacant wall that would reveal the Room of Requirement to him.

Know what he missed? The beach. Specifically the one his grandparents lived near in Australia, but a magically manifested generic beach would do just fine.

He was surprised when the entrance appeared so quickly, almost as if it were already prepared for his needs. Not thinking much about it and honestly just looking for an escape to sort out his thoughts, he stepped inside and closed the door behind him.

......and then he found that he was not alone in the room on this beach and his heart both leaped and shriveled at once. Zoryn hadn't even so much as LOOKED at him since Charms class and it had destroyed him a little each time she purposefully ignored him. But he certainly wasn't daft enough to force his presence on her when she clearly had come here to be alone, you know?

"Uh...right...sorry...I'll just..." he muttered as he spun around on spot to walk right back OUT the door...only the seams to it had vanished...and there was nothing but enchanted blue before him.

Fudgesticks.

It had been all of two minutes of peace before she heard someone else trudging their stupid feet onto HER beach. Was the room of requirement broken or was everything at this school useless???

Whatever it was, Zoryn was fully prepared to turn around and yell at whoever barged in on HER beach time. She had already taken off her shoes, and had also gotten here first. So they'd have to be the one to leave. She was prepared to use force (and also her teeth) if necessary. She was a biter, fyi.

Only, when she turned around to yell at the intruder she noticed it was Derfael (a name which hadn't graced her thoughts in ages now, thnx). And instead of feeling rage, she felt nothing. Because she had erased him. Definitively. Looking at him was like looking at any other stranger. He did nothing for her.

"I'm not breaking any rules by being here so you can go find someone else to snitch on," only when she said it, her voice was flat. There wasn't any edge to it at all. And when she looked at him? Well, it wasn't exactly looking at him. She was looking past him, almost as if she was speaking to the empty blue behind his head.

And yes, she had yet to realize that he couldn't actually physically leave. That would create another problem entirely.
