Text Cut: Asher!

They were well into the new school year, and Isla still hadn't paid a visit to the lake. She'd technically been here before when the first years had made their traditional boat ride to the castle, but sightseeing had been the last thing on her mind that day. The lake had been one of the places she'd been looking forward to the most. Classes and homework had nearly devoured her time. Today was the day, though. There was still homework to be done, but truth be told, she was getting sick of all work and no play. She'd squeeze in some time before bed to do whatever homework was left.

For now, classes and homework were both in the back of her mind. Her pace picked up as she grew closer and closer to the lake, and pretty soon, she was there. It was everything she had hoped for and more. She spent the next minute getting a full panorama of the lake. Everything looked just as she'd imagined it would, except for...what in the name of Merlin was Asher doing? Her eyebrows narrowed inward, and without realizing it at first, she gravitated toward him. "Uhh, Asher?" she asked. Could he even hear her with that bubble around his head? She wasn't going to wade out there after him.

"What are you doing?" she continued, because whatever it was looked really fun and interesting, and she kind of wanted in on some of this fun he seemed to be having. She had no idea how to get that bubble around her head, though. The first year hung out by the edge of the water, lingering between wanting to dive on in and wanting to just watch and see the shenanigans.

It may have been beneficial for him to spend these hours exploring the castle and figuring out where everything was so he didn't get lost so much, but he decided against it. There were more important things that needed to take priority. Like befriending the Giant Squid, which was something he still needed to do in spite of a handful of trips to the lake that ended up being rather uneventful. But today was a new day, and the curly-haired boy was confident that he would be shaking that magnificent beast's tentacle. The sight of the boy was something to behold, but in his mind it was all part of being prepared. He waddled his way closer and closer to the bank of the lake, wearing swimming trunks, a tank top, goggles, and flippers. There was even a bubble around his nose and mouth, courtesy of one of the older Hufflepuffs, so he wouldn't have to hold his breath under water. He was ready. Even though there were a few students out and about, Asher had his eyes set on the lake. He was looking for any signs of movement from a certain gigantic cephalopod. So far, nothing. But hope was not lost as he stepped into the lake, for now stopping once his knees were no longer above the surface. Now, what was the best way to get the Giant Squid to come out? Hmm.
