Are we.." she was pertaining to them students. "going to perform the jinx on a grindylow alone? Like a one on one duel against the creature?" If so, they'd have a grindylow as a partner, how wicked is that?

"No," William shook his head at the young Ravenclaw with a chuckle. "I taught you the jinx JUST as a precaution, so that in case you DO run into a grindylow," or something worse, "you'll know what to do."

It was not fair to the creatures, no matter how dark and dangerous they were, and Eino would not do it. If anything, this man was a dark wizard for wanting to hurt creatures for no reason! Aren't they supposed to be learning how to care for magical creatures, and not do the opposite? This was the very thing Eino did not want to do, and stop others from doing. Sighing heavily, with nothing but disappointment in his tone, he spoke. "I understand." But, not, he did not understand. Not this, not why all house elves looked a hundred years old, and especially not why all the pumpkin juice was always gone when the came down for breakfast. With zero motivation to continue his participation, he thanked the professor and made his way to screens to change clothes.

William thought he could sense the disappointment coming from the Ravenclaw who was convinced that grindylows were still magical creatures needing protecting and he just sighed to himself.

"Grindylows are wizard-created WATER demons," he called after the boy, "and if you willingly put your life at risk by refusing to fight one off, I'm not so sure you should go into the lake at all!"

Merlin, now he was as grumpy as Scabbers.

No. Now she was going to get dressed.

Into one of those laughable swimsuits.

The prefect rose to feet with a bounce and picked one of the offending objects with two fingers. Arya wasn't one to care too much about appearance... but why did the professors get awesome wet suits and they got these? "Professor Williamson," She raised the swimsuit towards the man, waving it around a bit. "If we know how, could we transform our... swimsuits into wetsuits?" Arya looked at him a bit hopeful.

"Absolutely NOT," Williamson answered curtly, crushing Arya's hopeful expression with a hard look of his own. "Sorry, but they're the Hogwarts standard." No ifs, ands, buts, alterations, or substitutions.

SPOILER!!: The 'I Can't Swim Wells'

"GILLYWEED," Williamson bellowed, already annoyed with the people hating the swimsuits he and Scabior had ~~sadistically~~ picked out and VERY annoyed that students were NOT listening to him when he said GRINDYLOWS WERE EVIL CREATURES.

Right, finishing his sentence. "GILLYWEED will give you webbing between your fingers and toes and gills on the side of your neck. IT DOES NOT HURT. For all intents and purposes, you will become half-fish for an hour after you eat gillyweed. THIS WILL ENABLE YOU TO SWIM without a problem." He stared down those who had asked that questions specifically. "If you get lost, well.... woe be you." Not really. "Look, you're not going to get lost. One of us is swimming in front and one is bringing up the rear. We have a task for you which Professor Scabior is about to explain. ADDITIONALLY," he continued bellowing, "I'll ask Bartholomew Henry to keep an eye out for any lost lambs. GOT IT?"

Now then, time to pass it out. Williamson reached down for another bag that had been sitting near Dash and slung it over his shoulder, moving around the gathered students and pressing one worm-like ball into each of their hands.

"Do NOT eat this until Professor Scabior and I give the word."

Once he had passed out all the gillyweed, Williamson tossed Dash a ball of the stuff and jogged over to change into his wetsuit. He emerged all changed and feeling awesome, his own ball of gillyweed clutched tightly in his fist as he looked to his co-worker.

"Ready?"

Oh no, thought Silvia, this isn't good at all. She hated going underwater, especially when there were fish in the water with their creepy eyes, but she might be able to handle that if it were not for a bigger problem. "Um, professor?" she said, very nervously, hoping not too many students would hear her as they went about getting their swimsuits on, "what if we can't swim very well? And what does gillyweed do, will it help make it easier to swim?" Silvia had never properly learned how to swim; she could move around a bit in water, but she was a very weak swimmer. Maybe, if gillyweed would help, she would be able to stay close to one of her friends in case she needed help. After all, she really didn't want to miss the lesson.

"What if some of us... don't... know... how... to... uhm... swim?" Selena asked. And are deathly afraid of DROWNING in the lake even with the bubble-head charm and all?! Because... y'know, Selena was kinda one of those people. And Gillyweed? Selena didn't even want to try morphing into a fish. Fishes were weird. Some were even flushed down the toilet.

He was about to say this when he heard someone else voicing his question. Looking around, he found their Prefect looking rather uncomfortable. Turning back to face the Professor he too raised his arm. "I-i was wondering the same thing...Professor"" he said as he felt his cheeks blazing fire from embarrasment.
