Can't Stop the Rock

[proudgreenauror]

*flees the library, with a number of floating books chasing and hitting him from behind*

Somebody has GOT to soundproof the library!! We Madame Pince can't take much more of this!


Say, who wants to have a swimming marathon tomorrow??? It would be a CRIME to waste such fabulous weather!

Swimming?

[proudgreenauror.livejournal.com]

Sure -- out at the shallow end of the lake!

[xheather-masonx.livejournal.com]

Hm..

I'm not a big fan of swimming. I'll pass.

[proudgreenauror.livejournal.com]

*shrugs, cheerful grin* Well, to each his own. Or her own, as the case may be. But when you have to go down in the dungeons to escape the SEARING HEAT OF NOON, don't say I didn't warn you!

[xheather-masonx.livejournal.com]

Uh-huh.

*watches books hit him*


!!! *goes to grab a few of the books or at least take the hits for Gai*

What happened? *grunts as a book hits him in the head*

...And Swimming? ...I never really learned how to swim before.

*trying to gather the books up, stops short and barely dodges a whack in the head*

You don't know how to SWIM??? Good lord, man, you don't know what you've been missing!! We'll just have to do something about look out for that book -- ooh, that must've stung -- anyway, everybody should know how to swim. It's an IMPORTANT LIFE SKILL!!! *bats another book away from Kimi* Would you like to learn?

[dembonesdembone.livejournal.com]

*rubs head* I will be all right, I have received far worse hits in the past.

*ducks once more as a History of Magic text book zooms past his ear* No, I do not...*blinks softly* It is fun as well as important?

*thinks for a minute* Yes, if you will be my teacher, I would love to learn. *small smile at him*

[proudgreenauror.livejournal.com]

*finally got all the books under control* Yes, it's great fun -- it can feel like flying without a broom. Once you get your balance, the water practically holds you up! And it's important because if you don't know how to swim, a beautiful thing like a lake can be very dangerous.

EXCELLENT!!! I'll meet you out by the lake sometime tomorrow! I think there's a section charmed for extra buoyancy for beginners.

Swimming?! I'm in! I WILL NOT BE ONE OF THOSE WHO COMMIT THE CRIME OF WEATHER-WASTING!

[proudgreenauror.livejournal.com]

YOOOOOOOOOOSH!!!!! *FISTPUMP OF GLEE* I knew someone would appreciate the UNIQUE POSSIBILITIES OF THE SEASON!!

If someone hasn't already, I can offer her some enchanted earplugs. I believe that Ms. Harnet also has enchanted earmuffs, if she hasn't given them all away.

[proudgreenauror.livejournal.com]

*confidentially* Between you and me, I don't think it's the noise that bothers her as much as the fact that the noise is in the Library where no noise should be suffered to exist....

*gets a vision of library-sized earmuffs and has to chuckle a bit, muses* It's a good idea, all the same.

[whip-of-thorns.livejournal.com]

You're probably right about that. If that's the case, we could ask Professor Flitwick to cast silencing charms on the library; I'm sure he won't mind.

[proudgreenauror.livejournal.com]

*snaps fingers* Excellent -- just the person!! I'll look him up after my next class.

I've had one more encounter with the squid than I ever wanted. I'll pass.

[proudgreenauror.livejournal.com]

Have you ever seen the Squid in the shallow end of the lake? *cheerfully mad grin* Besides, he's just like a big puppy when you get to know him.
