Re: The Hogwarts Lake

"Oh." He looks around awkwardly.

Guest May 15th 2010, 11:15 pm

Liz has no idea what to say so she summons her guitar and begins to play.

**Molly Prewett** May 15th 2010, 11:16 pm

*Hermione looks up as something occurs to her.*

Hey, Neville, I've been meaning to ask you this for ages - who was the first person who thought it'd be a good idea to smoke gillyweed? I mean, it looks kinda like a ball of worms, so I don't even know why people would've stuck it in their mouth long enough to find out what it does, let alone start experimenting with it....

Guest May 15th 2010, 11:17 pm

Phaedra comes down to the lake because she is extremely bored and it looks like people here are having a good time.

Guest May 15th 2010, 11:19 pm

LIz stops playing and smiles at Phaedra.

Neville Longbottom May 15th 2010, 11:20 pm

"Well, Gillyweed is a magical plant native to the Mediterranean and resembling a bundle of slimy, grey-green rat tails. When it is eaten by a witch or wizard, one grows gills and webbing between the fingers and toes. There is some debate among Herbologists as to the duration of the effects of Gillyweed on fresh water versus salt water, but the effects of Gillyweed in fresh water seems to last about an hour. It was said to be discovered by Elladora Ketteridge but credited to Beaumont Marjoribanks about a century later." He says with a large grin.

Guest May 15th 2010, 11:22 pm

"Whoa Neville, didnt know you were smart." Liz says, then continues playing, "Any Suggestions you guys?"

**Molly Prewett** May 15th 2010, 11:23 pm

*Hermione grins, because learning is awesome.*

Thanks Neville! I still wouldn't smoke it though. I mean, seriously? WHO looks at slimy rats tails and thinks 'oooh - appetizing! Wonder what happens when I consume it'?

Neville Longbottom May 15th 2010, 11:24 pm

He looked at Liz, a little offended. "I know a lot about Herbology. I have been studying it since I was born." He rolls his eyes. "Bitch." And looks back to Mya. "Yeah It really isinteresting! Some people are odd."

**Molly Prewett** May 15th 2010, 11:24 pm

Neville's practically the best in our year at Herbology, you know!

**Molly Prewett** May 15th 2010, 11:26 pm

*Hermione nods.*

Well, I suppose the same could be said for eggs. I mean, at some point, somebody must have looked at a chicken and thought to themselves: You know what, I'm going to eat the next thing that comes outta there!

Neville Longbottom May 15th 2010, 11:27 pm

"Yeah, it's really weird when you think about how we all evolved, and Thanks Mya but I would say your the brightest of our year all together."

Guest May 15th 2010, 11:27 pm

Phaedra comes over..."You're good at Herbology? I have trouble with that class. I like transfiguration much more."

Neville Longbottom May 15th 2010, 11:29 pm

"I would say I am pretty good. I have almost every Herbology book known to man memorized."

**Molly Prewett** May 15th 2010, 11:30 pm

*Hermione flushes because she's modest even if it is true* Thanks, Neville

*She looks at the new girl she hasn't met yet and smiles a little.* I like Transfiguration too. Well, I like everything except Divination...

Guest May 15th 2010, 11:30 pm

"Thanks Neville, Although i am not an animagus and can transform into a dog. I can, however, transform my hand into a paw if i wished. I didn't know that you were very smart in that field and forgive me if i offended you, Neville. It is really amazing that you know that stuff." Liz says feeling like an idiot that grew up in a muggle home, look at Mya was she stuggling, no. She figures that she is just going to have to actually try now.

**Molly Prewett** May 15th 2010, 11:33 pm

*Hermione's face screws up in that I'm-thinking-now expression.*

So if you're not an animagus, what are you?

Neville Longbottom May 15th 2010, 11:34 pm

Neville stares at her for a while, extremely confused by her. "Okayy?"

Guest May 15th 2010, 11:35 pm

"A Metamorphmagus." Liz says, her eyes flashing through all the colours she could think of.

Guest May 15th 2010, 11:36 pm

"That's cool." Aedra says to Neville. She turns to Mya. "Divination is boring from what I've heard." She sees Liz change her eyes colors. "I can't believe it!"

Neville Longbottom May 15th 2010, 11:36 pm

Neville stares at her eyes and then looks away and mumbles to himself. "That creeps me out."

**Molly Prewett** May 15th 2010, 11:36 pm

Oh. Neat. So you can make yourself look like anything, then. Why specifically a dog?

*Has her I-ask-questions-about-stuff face on*

Guest May 15th 2010, 11:38 pm

"I believe Neville called me a bitch, in other words a female dog."

**Teddy Lupin** May 15th 2010, 11:40 pm

Teddy walked down to the lake, as if summoned by some magical force of communication. "Hey Mya, Liz." he says, reaching them. "And, umm." He looks at Neville. "I think I've seen you in the dorm."

**Molly Prewett** May 15th 2010, 11:42 pm

Hey Teddy! How are you?

*fights the urge to go into mother hen mode*
