 Unforgivably Cursed | adultescent
Finch raised an eyebrow at Torrance. "Have you? This isn't a place for students to play in. Maybe I need to talk to your uncle about that." If he ever got out of here, that is. Was it him or was he starting to sink? He was nearly waist-deep now and he hadn't moved further in, feeling somewhat stuck to the spot. This was becoming concerning.
Mhm, he was looking for the cat too, but the child should know enough that it didn't need two people going after it. That might even scare it away as it seemed rather spooked to begin with. In fact, where was that cat?
Ansley turned to see if he could see the feline, his eyes snapping to the Gryffindor as he could detect panic in his voice. Sinking? Uh, yeah... really the cat was the least of his concerns now as he was fairly certain he might be slowly sinking too. But he didn't want to concern the boy. "It's alright, Torrance, let's try to remain calm." Tiara was just on the other side, and he was sure she could offer some assistance. Maybe he shouldn't be so reluctant to accept it.
He tried to make his way towards Torrance, but it felt as if his legs were made of lead. And the harder he tried, the further he sank. This was not good at all. He turned towards Tiara again as she called his name. "Yeah, actually, I am... A little help?" He tried not to show any panic in his own voice, but the situation seemed to be getting worse. He did get close enough to Torrance, however, that perhaps he could be of some help if his sudden idea worked.
Hopefully his wand worked after being in the swamp. "Think you can grab onto my back?" He shook off some muddy, seaweed-like substance from his wand and attempted to cast Carpe Rectractum towards the corridor. Something about his swamp infested wand was interfering with the magic though and only a short, flimsy rope came out of the wand before fizzling away. Hopefully Tiara had a better idea.
