He beamed and turned back to the class, adjusting the daisies over his left ear before clasping his hands loosely behind his back. "Now then, this IS also Care of Magical Creatures class, as Mr. Henry has been so kind as to remind us. Professor Scabior has also graciously reminded us all of the historical significance of the Black Lake, but what about its environmental influence? What sort of magical and mundane creature inhabitants might we find living and thriving off the lake?"
Other than their friendly Giant Squid, of course.
OOC NOTE: Last post for us for the night. Class will resume around 3pm EST tomorrow! Feel free to answer the question but PLEASE only name ONE creature per person. You've seen that points loss is always an option for not following directions, so don't disappoint us! =)
Was that the giant squid?
Cass stared out into the lake, completely in shock about the sudden appearance of the famous - slightly illusive? - Giant Squid, the last time she saw the thing was when she was second year, and if she wasn't mistaken, it was also a History of Magic class.
She looked around and noticed that a few students were waving at him, and so, she did too. Offering him a half-hearted wave before turning her attention back to the Professor, or rather, forcing herself to turn back to the Professor. She really couldn't concentrate with the squid there and everything.
"Are merpeople considered creatures, Professor?" She sort of asked - or maybe answered? Then, suddenly her face split into a smile and answered once more
"Oh, and Grindylows!" She added, remembering that dip into the lake during her third year with Professor Lafay and the rest of the Slytherins.
