Hogwarts RPG Name: Bartholomew Henry | I like shiny things. Quote:

"Well the giant squid is harmless according to older students. And I've heard there's also mermaids in the water which is really cool!"
That probably wasn't going to help his desire to not go into the water, but she couldn't help bouncing on her toes at the idea. Plus, she was fine. Wasn't that enough evidence? "I'm glad you like it there," she was smiling nicely at him, because she really was happy that he liked it. "Ravenclaw's good. I really like the colour theme of the common room! But... I also get what you mean, I didn't really expect to be where I am."
Shera was still half expecting the hat to call her back and tell her that it had made a mistake.
Her eyes glanced over to the tentacles now popping out of the lake and grinned at the squid that was asking them how they were. She quickly shot a glance at Daehyun as if to say 'I told you it was fine,' before skipping down to the edge of the lake again. "Hey Mr Squid! I'm enjoying it a lot, are you?" Quote:

He couldn't help but frown when she'd said she hadn't expected it to be a Ravenclaw. "Why not? You're so witty and bright." He could tell that even from their first meeting. "Plus, blue suits you." Unlike red on him, which only turned him into a tomato on the often times that he blushed.
He let out a soft "Whoa," when he saw the immense tentacles coming out of the water, watching in fascination as they waved in their direction, his fear long forgotten. He hurried to catch up with Shera, and scurried over to the shore. "Good day, err-" Sir? Mister? "I'm sorry, what would you like us to call you?" He'd rather ask first than insult the kind squid. Nodding in response to his question, he asked, "How is your day?" Truly fascinating. Could they befriend the Giant Squid? Daehyun sure felt more comfortable having friends with tentacles, than human ones. Bartholomew could always expect his greeting to be returned by students. The Squid lowered his tentacles back into the water and seemed to smile with his eyes. "Hello, youngsters. That's a good thing to hear. So am I. The water's great today I would say. A perfect day for a swim.'' He was inviting them to stay in the water. "Feel free to call me Bartholomew. Not Bart, Barty or any variation. I dislike nicknames you see but my full name is always the best way to get my attention.'' Tentacles absently splashed water as the other student was addressed. "Has it been busy with classes as yet?''
