She was indeed a Slytherin and right now, the formal way of addressing the boy seemed TRUE to her heart. Strictly confidential information? Was it really? Why was he winking? Was that wink suppose to signify her sign of STUPIDITY?
...
Don't even.
"Thank you, Mister Treyen Lockhart," she addressed almost business-like. OH YEAH.
Lola went back to Harper and gasped, putting a hand to her mouth and shaking her head in shame (SHAME FOR THE GIRL). "Get rid of them?! ARE YOU ABSURD? No, I will most definitely not because Simon just told me deep within me pockets that these coins are protecting their essence and souls!" Did she want her children to be zombie fishes? She'd never HAD fish babies herself hadn't she?! Well if she did, she would know the feeling!
Had Sierra gone BONKERS?! HER TOO?
"Sierra--PLEASE! If you've read 'Swimming with the Selkies' by August--I'm pretty sure yellow mermaids signify happiness and sunshine--WOULD YOU WANT TO DROWN MY HAPPINESS AND SUNSHINE?!" Mermaid haven? Lola eyed the fountain which seemed to scream at her, and she took out the yellow mermaid coin, shaking her head. No. Definitely not.
"I've decided to name her Millicent."
Mermaid haven... There were others like her in the fountain, weren't there?! And so, in a dramatic motion, Lola kissed the coin and threw the coin into the fountain. "SWIM FREE, MILLY!" She immediately held on to Sierra and Harper's hands because it was just a tear-jerking scene for the poor girl!
Harper was taken aback by the girl's reaction to her one little comment. Wasn't that what they were doing? Getting rid of them into the fountain? And then she said something about a Simon and essence and...okeydokie then. Harper nodded, forcing herself to speak.
"Well, yeah, of course. Forgot about...that....fact thing." Ahem. Yup. Cause she
definitely knew what Lola was talking about.
And then Lola was grasping her hand as she wished farewell to Millicent. Harper found herself looking at Lola instead of the coin. What an odd little duck - but Harper found herself smiling.
Bwahahaha. She liked the odd little duck.
SPOILER!!: Sierra

"I hope we didn't just waste a coin. If we did, you can go in and get it, Lola. After all, you are the mermaid in training, yes?" Good one, Sierra. Yes, she was giving herself a motivation speech. Way to use Lola's insanities against her.
She peered at the map, and she watched it light up four different ways, with gold being first and blue being next. "Well, ...it's the only logical thing to do next," she said, reaching into her bag and grabbing out the gold coin with a blue mermaid tail. "Off you go," and then she tossed the coin into the fountain.

It actually wasn't Lola's turn, it was her turn again. "I have the next coin, too," she said, and then she reached into her bag and pulled out the other gold coin--the one with the red tail. She looked at it for a few seconds, and then she looked toward the fountain.
What if they were wrong? What if they weren't supposed to toss all their coins into the fountain? This was her second and last coin, and so she'd be out after this. She looked toward Treyen. He hadn't said anything, so she guessed they were right. He'd stop them if not, right? ...err. She sighed, looked at her last coin...
...and the tossed it in with the others.
Harper watched this time, as Sierra threw two more into the fountain. Oooh peeerrrrrtyyy!
SPOILER!!: Low-lah

DID SHE KILL HER ONLY CHANCE OF BECOMING A SELKIE?! She looked back at Sierra with a nervous expression. There were no sparks flying around the fountain that congratulated them. Did they need to do that with all the coins? ALL FOUR MERMAIDS? This just wouldn't do. "Sierra, I don't think we should..." She pouted, but then realized that she was indeed a mermaid-in-training and MERMAIDS NEVER GAVE UP. It gave her the strength altogether again and she just took a deep breath while she waited for the other coins to bask in the mermaid haven.
Then the coin was off in mid-air when Sierra had tossed it.
"Have you gone mad, Sierra?! You didn't name it! Now look what she'll think when my Millicent's received a name and she hasn't!" Tututut this daughter had much to learn. "It'll feel all left out and what not."
Did she have to do everything? Merlin.
"GOODBYE AGATHA!"
Lola looked around and noticed Treyen/Train/WHATEVUHZ taking a step back. Did this mean good progress? Oh ho ho ho. When she looked back, Sierra was already prepping up to throw her last coin--"SIERRA, THE NAME!"--it was too late and her eyes were again with sorrow. "GOODBYE TILDA!" She was probably the only sane one here. Not naming your coins...? Not naming the mermaids?
She looked at the last coin. The green one... "I'll name you Madame Frumpsy..." Lola threw it with much affection and expected to be a mermaid once this coin-throwing business was all finished up.
Harper's eyes widened again with the reaction from Lola - which wasn't so surprising anymore, but still.
So, there went Agatha. Alrighty then.
She, too, noticed Treyen stepping back, and hoped for a moment that she didn't stink. Did she stink? Why would she stink? Was there a reason for her to be stinking?
And then there was a wink. Oh, thank Merlin, winks weren't because of stinks.
She was brought back to Lola and her name-calling and subconciously waved goodbye at the fountain as she called out the name Tilda. Wait - what was she doing? She let her arm fall and shoved her hand into her pocket.
She watched Madame Frumpsy disappear
what a miserable name for a mermaid and took a step back herself, waiting to see if anything was going to happen.
