He did not find her questions offensive at least, even if he was only slightly miffed by having his motivations questioned. Curiosity was not a crime, thankfully, but it could be an irritating trait. "It's the more efficient way of getting his attention," the Gryffindor explained. Just sitting on the bank watching the undisturbed water wasn't going to get much done and there were only so many failed attempts at skipping stones Atlas could stand before his ego became too bruised to carry on. So, instead, he was giving himself frostbite. Made perfect sense. But, speaking of stones, he did have a couple in his pocket still that he needed to toss out into the lake for added effect. Sure, he could have tossed them from the shore but it was unlikely they would have made it too far. Athleticism was not on his side despite his bulked up appearance and broadening shoulders. Even so, however, he intended on using his wand to slingshot them further out. Which is what he was currently preparing himself to do. Which a flick of his wand followed up by a tight corkscrew movement from the wrist, Atlas cleared his throat triumphantly as a translucent golden thread-like light dripped out from his wand and he reached into his pocket for pebble number one.
If Atlas was annoyed by her questions in any way, he didn't act like it. And well even if had, Keighley may not have even noticed as she was now staring out over the water curiously. "Is it? I didn't know that but now that I think about it I can see how that does make a great deal of sense." Movement within the water was more likely to catch the Giant Squids attention rather than simply sitting around and waiting for him to appear on his own.

Shifts her weight some, sitting up straighter with her back against the tree trunk. Bright blue eyes watching to see what was going to happen. How long would it be before the Giant Squid surfaced to see what was going?
