Well, she was half-muggle, so it made sense that muggle knowledge would sneak into her brain somehow. So apparently, it was only muggles that believed that merpeople could grow attached to humans. Maybe it was the Disney company's fault. After all, they did have that cartoon with the mermaid that-wait, how'd it go again? She fell in love with a human and lost her voice or something? Anyway, it didn't really matter now.

But wait, did Professor Cornish just say that a merperson and a human could reproduce? How would that work? Hmmm....

Well, of course they didn't know much about the merpeople. Who made a habit of going that deep in the lake? No one, for the obvious reasons. Basically, it was impossible for them, unless they had some gillyweed or scuba gear and who kept that on hand?

Honestly, she had no clue on the whole classification system beyond what her classmates said. Though, she did agree that it all was rather arbitrary, especially with some getting to chose their places. One thing she did know, the fact that all of them being in Slytherin territory was so obviously bothering some of the members of the aforementioned house down to their very SOULS was giving her life here.

Also giving her life? That Professor Cornish was basically inviting debate. "You know what I think the problem is? Most of the people who are 'lucky' enough to put in leadership positions are either super OLD," and she meant old as in, like, their sixties and seventies "and set in their ways, or they're purebloods who can't see the world beyond their own noses." Sorry any purebloods in the room. And yes, she caught the irony in saying that in the common room of the house the very Hogwarts founder who argued against witches like her being allowed into the school. "Like, they're either afraid of change, or afraid of losing their positions in society by supporting something that would shake things up too much. Basically, we need more people like you in there." Or all you old folks got to go, basically.
