"I love Quidditch and I want to play badly, but I get anxiety over flying." See, Lucas... anxiety is normal; no need to blush. "I can give you a nickname. I'm sure I can think of something." And it would be totally unusual, since he had such a normal name.

Laughing, Lux shrugged again. "Elephants are big too, but they aren't scary. Maybe he wants to give people giant squid hugs." Perhaps it got lonely deep in the lake. Ooh, but the stairs issue was something she could relate to. Nod. Yes indeedy!

"Maybe we could use a map to help us not get lost! And we can make sure our shoes are always tied so that we don't trip." It seemed like a good idea to her at least.

Lucas' stilted conversation did decrease considerably when the topic of Quidditch came up. It was something he loved watching and a sport he knew about. But he comment hit home pretty hard. "Wow, uh, me too.." he said, tucking his hands into his pockets. "People watching me fly is what freaks me out." All of those people, the height, his nerves; a bad combination.

He laughed brightly when she offered to nickname him. "..are you really good at nicknaming people? I can't accept just any old claptrap." He grinned at her, "do you have any nicknames?"

She had a point. She had a REALLY good point. And Lucas always appreciated a logical, reasonable answer. "And giraffes. And hippos. Although apparently they're really dangerous, so maybe not hippos. But giraffes seem pretty chilled out. And being a squid would be pretty cool, right? You just float around all day and sometimes you might even see a merperson!" Being a merperson was also a category of job Lucas had 'when he grew up'.
"You're full of brilliant ideas," he told her, seriously as she suggested they make a map to help with navigation. "There must be a charm or something for that. Like an anti-clumsiness spell. You're genius!" Uh huh. YUP.
