Floating close with Beth and Quinn, Eria heard when the little boy-with-a-death-wish let something completely idiotic come out of his gilly little face. Cave? Cave! CAVE!? Exploring the dark underwater CAVE!? JUST HOW STUPID WAS THIS KID!? She knew he was stupid and not surviving to graduation, and he was a Hufflepuff to boot....but who did he think he was getting other people killed with him!?

Especially HER people! No, she wasn't saying it outloud but she claimed baby snake and the tweetless bird under her protection. "If he is idiotic enough to go into dangerous territory willy-nilly and then dies, its his own bloody fault Quinn." Yes, those were the first words she'd bothered to utter this entire activity. It was usually a waste of breath, but this needed said.

"Hey Oompa Loompa. I don't care if you get your stupid self killed, but keep more important lives out of your blatant wish for selfharm, mmk?" What, was his mother drinking potions during pregnancy or something? Before she realized it, the older snake was but a body length away from the young eagle. Her tone was certainly as sharp as her green eyes, warning that if the aquatic denizens didn't deliever his demise...she just might.
