The Blonde was levitating, along with Jake Upstead, the large cage into the room under Professor Truebridge's instruction, after being told before how to do the Cucumber conjuring thing, and instructed to be polite to the creature. How was she meant to be polite though? Can you make polite coversation with a Kappa? Err...What to say. Perhaps she should conjure a cucumber instead.

"Cucurbita intaglio" she pronounced clearly with an elongated loop with the wand and a smile on her face.

"Is there enough Cucumber there for your liking?" she asked politely as the cage was lowered. Meep she felt weird talking to this thing. "And are you err.....Comfortable?" she asked again.

What the bloomin' heck was she doing?
"This one would like more cucumber." The Kappa answered, just as politely, though it was stuffing its face a moment later. With cucumber. When the cage touched the ground the Kappa made pleased noises, somewhere between the ribbit of a frog and a monkey sound and splashed around in the water, even dribbling a little on its head. "This one is comfortable. This one would like to be free."

Smart, huh?

As they started to lower the cage Jake watched the other girl interact with the Kappa. He... would give it a few minutes.

"Nnnnice... physique," he complimented. And then realised that could have been directed at anyone. "Errrr... Kappa."

Nice save.

Were compliments and politeness the same thing?

...

...

Eh.
The Kappa flexed obligingly and splashed around in the water until its body appeared to be a bit slimy.
