Though to the Gryffindor's credit she gave him others. Maybe that was her way of saying that it was cute keep doing it. And maybe
probably not.
Use him? Did she say.
"
You mean he's gonna help us," Cassia grinned some more at the kid mostly to tease Lex. The snake liked kids alright and found them cute that until they got annoying and did something that affected her negatively. As long as they amused her and entertained her she was okay. And so far, the kid was cute and ... on a rock. Cassia casually stepped up to the kid and made sure the rock was stable. Let's not injure the kid and have to go to the healer who so happened to be HER head of house.
But the rock was stable and good, the kid should be ok, the sixth-year decided. Unless the kid like flailed or moved a lot. Which what kids probably do. Should they freeze him or something? Naah, how'd that make them look like.
Oh, Lex had already started without her. Might as well she did.
Following suite, Cassia placed the wood on the ground then pulled out her wand. "
"You know, I kind have hoped the boats would be bigger enough for us to fit in....Lignum Navicula," ...Yeah, she probably should have focused and not said the incantation like that while she was expressing her thoughts.
Lex watched the wood stretch and contort until it had taken on the shape of a small boat, the way it did in class just earlier that week. Good to know she still had it. The Professor believed in practising until perfection was achieved, that was done in class...or well...she was almost sure it was. There was still the testing to be done. The Fifth Year glanced over at the little boy sitting on the rock and Cassia testing it to make sure it was sturdy...something she would have never thought to do. Ickle!Bellaire would help with the testing when that time came.
"Reverto!" She cast, returning her wood to its original state before looking to Cassia again, this time giving her a nod.
"Yup. We're gonna put him in our boats and hope they float." Simple enough.
"Sounds fun, riiiight?" She said, grinning widely at the little boy. This was probably the part where she was meant to mention that she took no responsibility for him in the event something bad happened. He wasn't a Gryffindor and it wasn't her fault Bellaire didn't have him on a tighter leash.
Lex circled the wood, trying to think of a better boat design.
"It would have been epic, then we would have been able to go looking for the Giant Squid. I met him once." Waaaay back in her Third Year.
Ah hah! She knew just what she wanted this time.
"Lignum Navicula!"
