"HI LUCAS," the third-year then LOUDLY greeted the prefect, settling down next to him with a BIG grin. Yes, she couldn't just bother Carysn all the time. Had to share the love. And Lucas was SO FUN to bother. He was always a bit.... cautious. Yes, that was the word. Cautious and wide-eyed, always.


Did Lucas know that he was being followed? Absolutely not. That was the problem when you were lost in your head all the time. And then there was the heavy rain that covered up even more sounds. So, it came as a surprise when he found his trains of thoughts interrupted by-

"AARGH!"

Oh merlin oh merlin oh merlin!

Startled, Lucas jumped about a foot in the air, only to be surprised by none other than- ".... Bernie?! I-" What???!?!?? ........ Although........ maybe he should’ve expected..... this. The loudness, the popping up out of nowhere. This was Bernadette, after all. And if he was being honest, he was just glad she wasn’t going to set something on fire. "I mean, hey! Hi. It’s, uh, good to see you." Oh sweet merlin help him.

Could he move on? Find something else to talk about? Like the toads on the stools and which one of them was Rainwater and........

........ and the fact that Rainwater was just hiding all this time??

Again, the sixth year was startled, but luckily, he didn’t scream this time. Why was everyone popping up out of nowhere? Was this supposed to be a joke? Had he missed something about this lesson?! But there was no time to ask because not only was Rainwater standing on his workstation, he was also talking about how he couldn’t be a toad because his eyes weren’t beady?? And then, to make it worse, the man was making jokes. Jokes about toadstools and toads sitting on stools and having a good old laugh about it.

Uhhhhhh????

Lucas didn’t know what to say. He didn’t even know how to react apart from staring at the professor in confusion with a vague smile on his lips. He understood it, yeah, and thought it was clever but not....... enough to make him laugh very much? No offence, Rainwater. To make matters worse, even Bernie was laughing about it?? He didn’t know what to think. Was he the only one that didn’t find it that funny? Was he just strange?

Maybe.

He was suddenly glad when the topic popped up and he could focus on something else, instead. Toadstools. And facts about toadstools. The fact that his workstation wasn’t near the back gave him some time to think, but not as much as he’d wanted. Before he knew it, it reached him and...... uhhhh...... "I think people tend to think that mushrooms are found in fields but toadstools are more likely to be found in woods. I, uh, don’t know if that’s true but....." His voice trailed off as he just sort of gave the professor an awkward look.

Could he hide? In a void? Yeah?
