Or, well, she HAD done it at one point...but not anymore. Which really didn't apply to the current situation at all and she should just stop thinking about herself and focus on the second year in front of her. "Is there...something about swimming that makes you uncomfortable?" she asked. "I don't mind trying. I can be pretty patient when it comes to teaching." She had dealt with Laura enough in classes after all. That showed a lot.

Again, leave it to Kurumi Hollingberry to blush at the words of a second year. "I just practice a lot," she nodded. "I grew up nonmagical, so I sort of...threw myself into my studies to try and make up for never being around it." She quickly pocketed her wand and hugged her knees to her chest for a moment, the water trickling off her toes and back into the hot spring. "Just keep practicing and I am sure you can accomplish a lot....even swim."

And then they were back on the topic of graduation. Meh. "Yeah...but we all go our separate ways once we graduate. I'll probably end up in Romania for university. My best friend will still be at Hogwarts...other friends will stay in London or go back to America...it won't be the same." Which was probably exactly what Theo wanted to hear right now. Not.

"I...I don't hate it...exactly..." Kurumi said as she chewed down on her bottom lip rather furiously. She enjoyed watching it ~~especially when Lewis was Keeper~~. "I enjoy watching it...just...playing it..." Cue more chewing on her lower lip. "I've seen you at tryouts though. You're brilliant." Because Selina made Kurumi sit with her in the stands and keep detailed records of everything the other teams did. Kurumi was sort of Selina's personal stat keeper.

Watching as he slipped the floaty things on his arms, Kurumi slid her feet back into the hot spring and continued to do so until she was in up to her thighs. Eeek....this felt weird...wearing her school uniform still and being submerged in water. Was sort of reminding her of their History of Magic trip to Atlantis. Eeek. She pushed herself the rest of the way in, water up to about her waist and then turned around. "Alright, you next."

Did she really just ask that? "Umm.... I have to say.... drowning is what scares me the most." He could manage in a kiddy pool, only cos his feet could touch the floor. It was very weird that he was worried about THAT, yet he could happily fly about 50 ft in the air. But then again, you can't suffocate from going under air. Theodore smiled at her. It was nice that she was going to try, really..

This was quite interesting. Kurumi's words were sort of... inspiring? "Really? I grew up non-magically, too..." But he sucked. It's not that he didn't try. Yes, Quidditch was his priority, but in classes, he tried soooo hard. But it was just the wand work. "Hopefully I can practice more when tryouts are over..." Cos he wanted to secure his place on that team before anything. It was bad really. Cos it was a hobby not a class.

Theodore scratched his head, and he did kind of feel bad for Kurumi when she put it like that. "If you're that worried about it, why don't you find a university closer to your friends?" He was sure she could work it out somehow.

"Oh. Aren't you very good at broomsticking?" Cos he didn't understand people that didn't enjoy tearing up the Quidditch pitch. It was ALL Theo ever thought about, and classes always came second to Quidditch. Awww...... he loved compliments on his flying. "Thank you." He knew that already, though. "I wasn't very good last term but that's cos I had to use a school broom." But he had a CUSTOM one now. A custom one that West's dad had hooked up for him. Yea, the terror twins were gonna own the pitch this term.

Okay.. she had actually gone in. Theo patted his floats, making sure they were robust. Oh, God. Why had he agreed to this? It's not like Kurumi was forcing him to jump in, cos he was the one who MADE her. He held his breath and very slowly lowered himself into the water. He went straight under, the floats stopping his head from going underwater.

He was just a bobbing head. And now he was breathing like a maniac. TERROR. TERROR. "I need another float. I NEED ANOTHER FLOAT." He needed SHOES that floated.
