I just pretend that I'm a stormtrooper because I get to wear their cool helmet." Matt finished and grinned. Tadah!

Talking about Star Wars sure got him to feel better. He didn't feel like puking anymore! Woohoo! And about him wanting to go wandering about in the dark, trying to find a route to a place he'd never been, most likely surrounded by magical wards and hostile creatures, Matt beamed. "Yeah! You got it!" Clever girl! Matt liked her already. "Come on, this way!" He said, pointing to the OPPOSITE direction, away from the lake.

WAIT, did he hear STORMTROOPER CARRIER? His head whipped around to look back at the boats. At the kid bellowing, more specifically. Matt didn't know him, but he was already in his good books because he was talking Star Wars, ALRIGHT.

But he was in a boat. Which was a no-no. "We're getting to the castle through a different route!" Matt spoke rather loudly to make sure the other kid heard him. "I might have a real reason to use my blaster." Which Matt was looking forward to, really. Not that his blaster was a REAL blaster but hey, he had his wand now. RAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!

But yeah, no boat.

Blaster….

“MATT SOLO!?!” The young boy called across from his boat. “Solo if that's you tell me what's the name of my Awesome Owl!?” or just come closer so the light of the lantern on their dingy boat could illuminate his face some. He turned to Ace and Mel, and Sam. “I gotta see if it's him. He's kind of crazy stupid, but really cool”
Could they maneuver their boat closer to Solo’s?

"HEY, YOU KNOW IT!!" Matt GASPED and grabbed the girl's shoulder to make a point. She had just said a galaxy far far away! SHE KNEW IT!! "You almost got me there, Julia!" He laughed and PHEEW, she did know Star Wars. She wasn't an alien after all. Though Matt had loads of alien friends, he wouldn't mind one more.

He deadpanned. "It's not a terrible idea. It's a much, MUCH BETER idea than going on those lame boats!" That Matt knew. That lake. Ugh. No.

But someone YELLED HIS fake ACTUAL NAME!! "DAT ME!" He yelled back at whoever it was. Then the person asked him a question and by the question AND the person's voice, Matt KNEW who that was. Lol. "Your owl is called Paploo." Matt LAUGHED, momentarily forgetting about the lake and the fact he had to go OVER it to get to the castle.

Only momentarily. There he was facing the fact he was NOT going to go in a boat and over the lake. No, thank you. Another adventurous route it was!

...And then Julia challanged him. She actually CHALLENGED MATT SOLO. "WHAT, NO. I'm NOT running away from a FIGHT." What fight was she even talking about? No matter, MATT WAS STILL NOT RUNNING AWAY FROM IT. "I am NOT." And to prove himself, it was now his turn to grab the shoulder of HER cloak and to pull her along. Not too abruptly or anything, since he himself was being VERY CAUTIOUS about getting on those tiny DANGEROUS boats.

No matter. NO MATTER. IT WAS A CHALLANGE NOW. And Matt SOLO did NOT run away from challenges. Or fights, for that matter.

HE WAS IN A BOAT. YES!! He was. In a BOAT!

...

Oh dear merlin, he was in a boat. HE WAS IN A BOAT, AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

He quickly popped his helmet back on because no one needed to see how terrified he was. No, Matt Solo was COOL. He was COOL. Everything was cool. Chill. Chillax, Matt, it's only a really massive, deep and DANGEROUS DARK LAKE.

WHOSE GREAT IDEA WAS THIS, THIS WAS NOT FUN.

But she didn’t want to give any more consideration to it, and was saved from having to do so by Matt once again criticizing the first years’ method of transportation.



…there was something about the boats, wasn’t there? Something specific to Matt Solo, that made him want to run the other way. She watched his face as he called out to the other boy on the water, and how quickly his exuberance (she was getting a lot of use out of that word today) came and went depending on his looking at the boats before him.

If his dread had continued, she may have suggested asking the professor if they could go some other way, but then exuberant!Matt was back and dragging her towards the boats. Victory? And anyway, she had no problem with taking the time to carefully climb into a boat. She did not want to be ‘that kid who fell in the lake’, and if Matt didn’t want that title either so much the better.

Julia reached over and gave Matt Solo’s helmeted head a consoling pat pat, “You’re very brave.”

And she wasn’t going to say anything more about it.


Wait did that Stormtrooper say he had a blaster? "So what? You cant shoot a wide side of an Ewok!" Tenacius hollered back laughing. But wait "Ugo you know that guy? And his name is Solo whuuuut???"

But now Tory wants to get closer to that Matt Solo Stormtrooper guy and Tenacius, still totally in character started giving commands to Sam and Mel "Change course. We're engaging the hostile." Stroke stroke stroke stroke!
