Or so that she'd take back the whole boy germ things. Because that was uncalled for [I]annnnd/I] a totally false assumption. Zander did not have boy germs. Maybe some of the other boys did, but not Zander. No sir. He was germ free. "I heard sometimes that the shots don't get rid of cooties because cooties are really hard to cure." Mhmm.

Was she questioning his lion-hood? This was the second time in the first few weeks alone. Did that Zahra girl put her up to this? Because if she did then there would have to be some serious consequences. That girl needs to be stopped. "Yes I'm sure that I'm not a Hufflepuff," he corrected. You're not allowed to question a person's "househood" if you can't even pronounce them right. "The sorting hat most definitely said Gryffindor. Are you trying to say I'm weak or something? Because I can be brave if I want to be." Hmph. "Are you sure that your not a ravenclaw or something? Because boy do you ask a lot of questions."

And as if on cue, even more questions. "Well he can't preform magic. He hasn't got a wand like us," duhhhh. Uh. No I think he's giant because he was just born that way, I don't know. It might be in his genes." Zander smiled knowingly. He had learned about genes over the summer. So knowledgeable. Yes. He may be awful at potions, but muggle stuff is a peice of cake! Another question? This girl was so curious. Was she always like this? Is this why her parents told her all of this made up stuff? So that she'd stop asking questions? "Yeah it normally snows over here in the winter! Hogwarts looks really cool covered in white. And you get to have snowball fights and you can even build a Mrs. Snowman?" He told her enthusiastically. Maybe this will get her to like him and not think he was a loon.

"Hey, for the last time, I'm not loony!" GAH. What was he supposed to do to convince her?? "Well then if you can get rid of cooties with a shot, how am I supposed to get rid of boy germs?" Could you scrub them off? Were they even a real thing. Or was she making them up like he was making up cooties.

" And I'm not making this up! We've just got to look for him because sometimes he doesn't come up right away." *nods head* The squid was real. This was serious business, he would not just make it up. Besides, he wasn't creative enough to do that. As soon as he said this he turned to see a tentacle wave up out of the water. "Oooh look did you see it!? He waved to us! His tentacle, did you see it? Did ya? Did ya? I told you I wasn't lying!" Ha.
What did he mean that the shots didn't get rid of cooties? "You're lying. My sisters said I don't have them anymore and Magatia is really smart," Ellinia said sticking her tongue out at Loony Boy. He had to be lying because he was nowhere nearly as smart as her sisters. He didn't even know what boy germs were or cooties. "What do you know about cooties anyways?" Probably nothing because he was a liar. Yup. And he was loony so clearly he didn't know anything about cooties.

He claimed that he wasn't a Hufferpuff. He said it weird though. With an L. Ellinia was pretty sure there was no L in Hufferpuff. "My mommy said loony people hear things in their head that aren't real. Are you sure the hat didn't say Hufferpuff and you thought Gryffindor?" Ellinia asked, tilting her head slightly. And Ellinia was definitely not trying to say that he was weak. She just believed he could not "rock the red and gold" the way her sisters said that she could. What was a Ravenclaw? Ellinia stared at the loony boy blankly.

Ravenclaw... Ravenclaw... Ca-caw? Which one was that? OH WAIT. It was the smartsy one... right?

"I'm not a Ravenclaw. I don't even like birds," Ellinia said while shaking her head. Silly Loony Boy. "And it's because you don't have good answers." Not her fault he gave bad answers that made her ask more questions.

What was the point of a giant squid if he couldn't do magic? Why did the lake even have a squid? "Why can't he do magic without a wand?" Ellinia asked. Because if the squid was a magical creature he should be able to do magic. He was giant because he was born that way? That didn't make sense. "I have jeans too." Like... four pairs of them. Yup. "I don't think they make jeans for squids because they don't have two legs." See, the loony boy was silly.

OOOH. He was talking about something Ellinia liked. "I can't wait for it to snow," Ellinia said, beaming and hugging her snow globe tighter. "It's going to be so pretty and I wanna build a Mrs. Snowman and a Baby Snowman and a Doggie Snowman," she said, going off into her dream world where Winter would be perfect. It would be snow-y and pretty like little white flowers falling from the sky. She couldn't wait for that. "And then I can build a snow house!" And the Snowman family can live in the snow house with a fireplace and all.

... Loony boy was not convincing Ellinia with the whole not being loony thing. "Okay," she said in response. She didn't believe him one bit though. As for the boy germs... "You need a shot for those too. And then you need to put it in a box and put the box in the garbage disposal and have the thingy grind it up," Ellinia said seriously. At least that's what she thought would get rid of it. Her daddy never told her how to get rid of it. He had just said stay away from boys because they had boy germs. Plus, if there was any way to actually get rid of boy germs that was probably the way to do it.

Ellinia squinted her eyes and tried to find the squid. "Shouldn't we have a lookie thing for it? Can't you find him with magic?" she asked, putting her snow globe down on her lap and making a makeshift telescope with her hands. It didn't work. Then loony boy was being all excited about something. What? She saw a thing splash into the lake but she wasn't quite sure what the boy was talking about. "I didn't see it," Ellinia said, eyes wide. Had she missed it? Or was loony boy being loony and seeing things?! "Make it do it again!" Because she wanted to see the squid too.
