The long hallways of the sixth floor of Hogwarts seemed to stretch on forever.
The brick and paved expanse was similar to other hallways, of course, though it was far from empty - with numerous students, as well as statues, paintings, tapestries, and suits of armor. The latter had several helmets turn to peer at Nathaniel as he walked, which even after being a student for a time, caused him to stare back. He also took note of some of the decorations, finding several that he believed to look pretty or interesting, perhaps enough so to return later and study them.
Wandering as he was, the first year wasn't lost, of course, as he had a good sense of direction. No, Nathaniel was in the middle of a search, as he sought to discover a rumored study room. He had heard from older students that there was a panel of brick, near a painting that featured a goat at certain times of the day, which would reveal a room beyond it. And inside that room were letters filled out by some past students, who had found helpful notations on Hogwarts classes; such as books on certain subjects, which could improve knowledge and competency.
Being who he was, Nathaniel really wanted to find that trove of tips.
"It must be around here, somewhere," the Slytherin murmured to himself, as he passed another statue. "A goat... I need to find the goat..."
Nathaniel had been searching the hallway for several days now, at different times of day, to help narrow down when the animal might appear in a painting frame. So far he hadn't found it, but that only meant he was getting closer to the actual revelation in the picture. And that was exciting. Enough so that Nathaniel would continue to search most of the morning... except that a small glimmer of a white animal caught his eye, and caused Nathaniel to turn and look.
The goat!
Nathaniel grinned as he watched the animated creature move around the hillside of the painting, but soon his attention turned to the wall and got out his wand. He pointed the tip at the bricks and spoke the phrase he had been given--
"Caprae."
--and watched with awe as the bricks began to fold inward, revealing the secret location!

Bored, alone and unable to sleep, Augustus found himself pacing around the many floors and stones at Hogwarts as he tried to put his mind at ease. Recent studying, stress and worries about the exams coming up had kept him up for a while now resulting in many sleepless nights and himself falling asleep during Astronomy class. Somehow, he had even managed to get away with it.
In the distance, he found himself a peculiar situation. Augustus had always found himself in these types of situations. Curiously watching, he watched at one of the younger students interacted with the portraits. " How'd you know how to do that? " He asked as he slowly approached the boy with his sense of curiosity filling him up.

The voice from nearby startled Nathaniel, as he turned to look at who spoke. He blinked, then frowned, before he inclined his head and asked.
"Augustus?"
The obvious was obvious, of course, but it had been more surprise at seeing Olivia's older brother out and about, more than anything. Or anyone for that matter, as it was fairly early in the morning. There had also been the incident with... poorly made food, toward the end of last year, which had struck Augustus regrettably. Nathaniel actually wondered if the older boy had sought him out with suspicions in mind?
"I heard about a secret passage from some older students," the younger Slytherin answered, as he resumed his wits. "They mentioned it contained notes from past students, many with secrets and hints about the school and classes."
It all seemed very exciting, so much so that Nathaniel blurted out the reason before even considering that he might have to share the find.
"Oh, and Caprae is Latin for goat. Which was the hint I had to find. It's there--" Nathaniel pointed to the nearby painting, to the small animal in the corner. "--and now we have a secret room to explore. Will you be coming with me?"
Nathaniel turned to the open wall section and peered inside. Though, instead of a room, it was a long hallway that receded into darkness.
Curious.
"Lumos."
Nathaniel's wand tip lit up, as he cast the lighting spell. He raised his eyebrows to Augustus, at least somewhat content to have someone along in case things went bad.

The young Nathaniel seemed to have a curious side and while Augustus too had a curious side, it seemed Nathaniel's was more curious about the potential adventure they were going to have. " Secret passage? " He repeated back with a curious tone to his voice as he watched the boy illuminate the tip of his wand.
" Why would you want to go into here in the first place? " He questioned wondering why the boy's curiosity got the better of him. " What could be so important that it required you to explore a darkened hall way? " He asked as he looked toward the hallway. He paused for a split second watching as he peered into the darkened hall way. " Wait!" He called out as he pulled his own wand out. " let me go first. "
