Open post! Any takers? Rhibear ~ Madam Solo ~ Dark Brooding Girl ~ Accio Jedi ~ Gryffinclaw ~ Just a doll The lake was easily Gaston's favorite place on the Hogwarts grounds! Staring out at the water always calmed him down, which was helpful now that there were three poltergeists terrorizing the castle, and it was always fun to watch the students or - the squid! Merlin, he'd almost forgotten about the giant squid living in the late! The Frenchman mentally kicked himself for not thinking to bring a fish to feed the creature.
Gaston found a quiet shady spot under a tree to sit and pulled a book - one of his favorite classic French romance novels - from his jacket pocket. He knew the students would probably giggle at his taste in literature, but they shouldn't be surprised; they all knew what a softie he was by now! Speaking of the students... he glanced up, hoping to see someone approaching. It would be nice to have some company!
