She was trying, promise, to not become overwhelmed by all the facts and infallible information being shared by her peers and elaborated upon by Professor Fergersnout...but her hand simply could not keep up with all the words and therefore her notes were a glorious jumbled mess with one fact blending into another - not too unlike how she still read most works of fiction - and creating one very elaborate and inaccurate narrative.
Truly, an academic marvel she did so well on her History of Magic OWL.
Creating a unique wizarding settlement was something more easily handled than keeping up with notes and Anna immediately turned her parchment over to start brainstorming ... though what she ended up doing was a whole lot closer to daydreaming than brainstorming. She remembered the pact she, Aurora, and Solomon had made many a moon ago to travel to Atlantis and have the most epic of sleepovers there. Odd how she had no remembered that until this moment BUT since she had done well enough on her OWLs (oh, hey, was that the inspiration for the academic marvel?!) it was something she was well within her right to bring up to mum and dad again. Thoughts and intentions fixating on the aquatic, she began with writing the name for her could-be wizarding space: Liquathys. It sounded mythical and wet, didn't it? Since Atlantis was in the ocean, the Hufflepuffle's thoughts went more small scale and she wrote down the first thing to come to mind: Loch Ness. It made SENSE when you thought about it, additions which she wrote beneath the location, seeing as the closer one was to danger and exposure the safer one was! Shrouded in mystery, muggles already believed in the ‘Loch Ness Monster’ thanks to a kelpie spotting sooooooooo any accidental sightings could just fuel the narrative! Unlike other wizarding hubs being for commerce and housing, Anna decided that those two would be the secondary and thirdary purposes for her underwater dwelling. Instead this settlement magizoologists, aquatic herbologists, and their families...and people who were just generally open hearted and environmentally friendly to protect and preserve magical aquatic life AND foster healthy relationships with mermish populations! Which would of course mean that they would have to get permission from any mermish colony already living in Loch Ness. After a bit of scribbling down some facilities, Anna turned her attention to decorating her parchment a bit (and somehow making fish scales and seaweed look like a pineapple) while she hummed a tune she had heard from her now graduated thespian inspiration.
