Lucas grinned, a teeeensy bit distracted by the niceness of her smile. "Do I have to be really funny and nice from now on so I get a good nickname?" Piece of cake.

It came to his attention, rather belatedly, that Cucumber was a food. "How did you get it?" Did she like cucumbers? "Was there a food fight involved?" Because cucumber, heavy and club-like were probably a pretty dangerous thing to throw. Maybe'd gotten really into it. That was kind of.. unexpected. But he liked it.

Ah the Squid. Formerly a thing of Lucas' nightmares, now apparently, hosting tea parties with Merpeople. "...maybe he's lonely," Lucas said, a little pathetically, thinking of how alike he felt to the Giant Squid at the moment but was cheered considerably by the ability to stop humiliating himself in public places.
"Do you know any reallllly smart people? Or realllly nice teachers?" Professor Elwood seemed really nice and so did Professor Bellaire. "What would we call it?" Lucas frowned in concentration. "...you couldn't combine our names to make it catchy either. Same first syllable thing." Lu-ux. Sucky.

It made Lux happy to talk about how she was learning to fly, because she was still rather proud of herself even if things were going rather slow and she was still barely hovering off of the ground. "I really want to try for the Hufflepuff Team next Term." Fingers crossed she would actually be able to. The lessons were going well so far, but she was still scared of getting panic attacks and was not even able to fly without Tessa being in front of her on the broom.

She laughed. "You can be if you want to! Or maybe we can give you a nickname for something you like. Bay called me Cucumber because I really like cucumber sandwiches and ate his when he didn't want it." They were her favourite sandwiches, and he had even told her that she could have his whenever his mom gave them to him. She also really liked getting them from the kitchens.

"Yeah, exactly! We all get lonely sometimes. I would so give him a hug if I could..." Maybe she would actually do that, and head back over to the lake and see if she could get him to make an appearance. She had never seen a squid up close and personal, and had a feeling they were not pretty... but he still might be friendly! "My friend Tessa is good with magic, and a lot of the teachers are nice! I bet almost any of them would help us." Though some of them seemed nicer than others from what she had seen so far. "Ooh, yeah! Luux would be like my name, so that would be awful." She made a face. "I bet there is some really cool latin word we can use for it. A lot of spells seem to have Latin names!"
