"No." The Squid reached out a tentacle and SMACK!ed the silly Slytherin. Hopefully he was smacking some sense into the lad.
No? why not?
"Why not?" he voiced his thought as he jumped up from where he was seated. He wanted to have a Giant Squid pet! Why couldn''t he have one? But before he could say it was unfair , he saw an tentacle rise up from the water and his eyes went wide.
Protecting his head, the Slytherin held his arms above his head in instinct but found out that he was smacked in his side. Falling to his side, he fell face down on the grass from the inpact and shivered when the cold wet water drenched him.
Okay, so maybe a giant squid pet wasn't such a good idea...
SPOILER!!: Le-Professor

Shame he was leaving already. Ah, well. "Thanks for stopping by, Mr. Henry!" Williamson called back affectionately to the squid, waving at him cheerfully. "We will see you later!"
He turned back to the class then and beamed as one student FINALLY answered his question from earlier. Well well well. It was ABOUT TIME they moved on to the next segment of class!
"Yes!" he practically cheered for the student who answered his question from earlier. "Two points to you. This is going to come in handy later, class, so listen up.
"If you happen to be swimming under the lake," which they all would be, "and you find a grindylow clamped onto your ankle, for example, you need to remember to use the Revulsion Jinx." William flicked his wand into his hand to demonstrate as he spoke. "The incantation is 'Relashio!' and the wand movement is a sharp jab. You may go ahead and practice that now."
He nodded toward Scabior and then moved over to a bush down by the lake, dragging back to giant burlap sacks.
"While some of you practice the spell, others of you can go ahead and change into your swimsuits, because yes, we are going under the lake. The boys' suits are in the left bag and the girls' are in the right." He smirked proudly and pulled out matching Slytherin wetsuits for Dash and one for himself too. "Go ahead and change behind these screens," William walked over to one and tapped it, revealing the disillusioned changing station that had been there all along, "and TRY not to make your classmates feel awkward in their bathing outfits, all right?"
One more thing: "Any questions?" ooc: okay, so, you have two tasks to do: 1) practice the relashio spell (you can practice on each other, but beware, it hurts! and 2) change into your suits! GET READY, cuz class will resume at around 6:00 pm EST.

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.
Hearing that they were going in to the lake to swim, Daichi froze in place. Not because the water dripping from his clothes were so cold but because of fear. He had almost DROWNED last year and now he had to swim in the lake?! He couldn't even swim!
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.
