"Nefarious." If that little smirk was anything to go by. Though an evil streak from Trent would not be all that surprising; anyone who could create and then unleash Vegetable Trent on the world was at least a little bit twisted. Take it from someone who knows. "Not at all worried, sir."
Oh look, a Bellchant. "Good morning, Isla," he greeted her, a pleasant smile on his face. "Nice day for it." That wouldn't last, Nem wagered.
Anyway, moving on. And, for the record, Nem had few plans to call Trent 'Headmaster' rather than 'Professor'. As well as preferring to give him the downgrade, Nem felt it could also do his son some good. He was very thoughtful like that.
The preludial mention of something 'to get them all thinking' was not really all that promising to Nem, especially when it was swiftly followed by 'ease you back into the learning process'. It only served to highlight the fact that the first few lessons of the term were extra insulting in their simplicity, and Nem huffed a sigh and glanced out at the water, twisting the ring on his thumb exactly three times before raising a hand.
"People have been known to hide armies of Inferi in large bodies of water - including this large body of water." Nice and loud for the people in the back. "So who's to say that when you go for a dip in a lake or river or anywhere, really, that you're not gonna get a friendly visit from a bunch of reanimated corpses? You might think that's a fish tickling your foot, but could be there's something trying to grab you and drag you under." Flashing a pleasant smile, Nem hooked his thumbs into his pockets and fell silent again. |
