Elodie had discovered that finding James was a challenging task. Nobody seemed to go out of their way to look for him, they simply accepted that he was often off somewhere doing his own thing.

When she asked his family about his whereabouts, she would usually hear, "I don't know...", "He's probably off doing his own things...", "He might be serving detention..." or "You'll likely find him eventually, just keep looking."

Her realization was both infuriating and heartbreaking. It confirmed her suspicions—James was rarely sought out, and most people seemed content to let him be. The fact that everyone expected others to do the searching for him or simply accepted his absence without a second thought stung.

It felt like a heavy weight on her heart, knowing that James was often unseen and unappreciated by those around him.

A sudden clarity washed over her mind—the reason it was so difficult to find James became apparent. It was not just the fact that he didn't readily make himself accessible. It was also due to his personality—he wasn't someone who enjoyed being found.

Despite her usual lack of success in locating things, Elodie had an unwavering determination that fueled her efforts.

"You know," Elodie huffed loudly, out of breath, "you're not exactly easy to find, James Sirius Potter."
