Justin yawned as the breeze of the Great Lake brushed his face. A single leaf fell from the tree and into his mouth, as the boy began dramatically gagging.
"That was fucking gross," Justin exclaimed as he tossed the leaf aside. Next to him was a white Styrofoam box with a roughly written note resting on top. Justin crouched low to the ground, picked up the note, and began reading.
Why the hell does he even like those? Justin thought to himself as he shook his head.
He stood up and reached for something in his school robe, as he took out a piece of toast. Justin frisbee-threw the piece of toast towards the lake. The toast smoothly glided on the water's surface and caused a ripple. Not too long after, it was simply floating on calm waters.
Justin rubbed his eyes. He could have sworn a giant tentacle snatched the piece of toast and dove back down to the depths.
"So it does like toast," Justin noted.
He then took out untoasted bread. The Ravenclaw first-year threw the piece of bread the same way he threw the piece of toast.
However, unlike before, the bread was untouched. Shortly after, the sandwich ingredient sunk to the bottom of the lake as it had absorbed too much water to stay afloat.
"Toast but no bread. What a little picky eater," Justin smiled, wholesomely. He comfortably sat next to the white box and opened it. It was an ice box that was sent by Mr. Shin from his own restaurant. Justin had asked for a variety of seafood so he could figure out what the giant squid of Hogwarts loved eating the most.
Justin opened the lid of the box. There was an assortment of raw seafood from shellfish and different types of mackerels. The highlight of the box was a single big, whole salmon.
The black haired boy rubbed his chin as he pondered which seafood he would attempt to feed the giant squid first.

Reducio
Here's the things you wanted from the restaurant. The hell are you planning? A seafood boil? Who needs all this seafood? Is it a prank? If it is, make sure it's a good one. Those things aren't cheap.
Miss you son,
Love Pops.
P.S: Five boxes of Every Flavored Beans please.

The warm rays of the spring air seemed to waft over Hogwarts. The bird singing their sweet melancholy sounds while any other critter scattering about made sweet melodies as well.
Many students were out and about enjoying the springs air and the sweet smell of blossoming flowers wafting through the air lingering a sweet sickly smell.
The day was peaceful. Even the Great Lake seemed to glisten in the sun's rays as the sun rained down upon the great lake glimmering slightly.
Aleksandra was making her way down towards the Great Lake enjoying the sweet sound of nature singing its sweet calming melody to her ears.
The young platinum haired girl has her hair pulled up in a half up do while the rest of her hair cascades down her shoulders in little ringlets.
Her outfit consisted of a beige short sleeve turtleneck while adorning a beige pleated skirt, beige knee high socks along with her obsidian black loafers.
Aleksandra was making her way quietly towards the Great Lake, the young girl's steely gray eyes examining the area around her.
The sound of water rippling almost splashing caught the girls attention.
Turning her gray steely eyes towards the Great Lake Aleksandra noticed a young boy with raven black hair who seemed to be throwing stuff in the water? Why on earth would anyone throw stuff in the water?
Aleksandra was rather curious though at the same time she felt unbothered why would she even care and waste her time by investigating. But alas she also was uncertain the boy had a box beside her which seemed to catch her attention more.
Slowly making her way towards the young boy Aleksandra had a very bland expression on her face though slightly curious on why this boy was littering into the Great Lake had to be again some rules right?
“Is there a reason you are throwing things into the Great Lake? You realize it’s a home to creatures that would not be fond of litter?”
Aleksandra spoke softly in her airy Scottish tone, her steely gray eyes slightly squinted towards the boy.
Aleksandra not really noticing all of the seafood in the box yet seemed to think the boy was maybe throwing old parchments of school paper which seemed like an idiotic thing to do but alas this was Hogwarts and nothing would surprise Aleksandra.

Justin's dark-brown eyes stared deep into the platinum-haired girl's eyes, who just accused him of littering. In pure spite, the boy took out another piece of toast and threw it again into the lake, frisbee-style, without blinking once or breaking eye-contact.
"Do something about it," the boy said, sticking his tongue out.
The first-year boy then quickly minded the girl no business as he rubbed his chin again in front of the white box in deep thought.
Squids eat a lot of shellfish... but the bigger ones do eat more regular fish... hmm... the boy thought to himself.
He motioned over to the silver-haired girl with his right hand, while his gaze was still fixed in his dad's care package.
"Hey, Silvereyes! Come here and make yourself useful," Justin called out. He handed the girl an oyster and a clam. "Throw those in the lake, would ya? I'm trying to see which food that giant calamari likes the most."
Justin reached inside the box and took out an octopus tentacle and a Spanish mackerel. For a brief moment he stared at the octopus tentacle. "I know they're not the same species... but it does feel a little wrong feeding a squid tentacles."
Justin then tossed both the mackerel and the tentacle, deep into the lake with a mighty throw. He turned to face the silver-haired girl. "Well? You gonna throw it? You do know how to throw right? Or did you want to eat it? I can start a fire if you want," Justin laughed a hearty laugh. "The 'littering' boy in front of you is, Justin. Justin Shin. Handsome, I know. Unfortunately, applications for girlfriends open my fifth year. I am currently unavailable."

A leksandra narrowed her stunning gray eyes the sunlight reflecting against the girls fair skin lighting her platinum blonde hair slightly brighter like a crystals reflection while her gray eyes held a storm within them awaiting to unleash the brewing storm ready to explode inside her.
After all, who was this boy?
Aleksandra knew that many children are childish and just plain rude but this boy stooped down to sticking out their tongue. What is this Kindergarten?!
Aleksandra crossed her arms against her chest, stunning gray eyes slanted in a dangerous dagger like stare, her thin lips pressed tightly together, her mind lost in thought.
“How old are you five? Must be to do something childish like that.”
Aleksandra scoffed as the ravennette haired spoke once again as he spoke towards the young platinum haired girl.
Why on earth was Aleksandra walking over no idea. Was trouble lurking most likely. Did the girl have anything else better to do? At this exact moment not really.
Sighing in annoyance Aleksandra walked closer to the boy as he held out oyster and a clam. Blinking slightly Aleksandra gently took the two mollusks and examined them quietly in her small hands.
The rather short girl glanced over towards the lake thinking quietly to herself. Listening to the dark ravennette haired boy beside her.
Aleksandra debated if throwing food towards the great lake to try and feed the giant squid would be against any rules after all would it not be against some type of rule or law?
The young girl knew her father was always rambling on about how it could impact wildlife if people were to feed them and they would not be able to care for themselves of course that also sounded like rubbish.
As Aleksandra felt lost in her own world debating on what the right actions would be, the platinum haired girl was reeled back to reality when the young boy spoke once again.
Aleksandra glanced over her shoulder glaring daggers at the boy. Not only was he bossy he seemed a bit over confident and not only that boastful. Did he mention handsome? As if the boy was not even that attractive looking to the young girl.
Aleksandra figured this boy was way over his head and some type of high ego going on.
“I rather eat something more appealing. Secondly, do you not think throwing discarded seafood into the lake could possibly cause an imbalance to the lake's ecosystem?”
Aleksandra states in her soft feathery Scottish accent her gray eyes still shooting daggers towards the young boy before she sighed softly to herself.
“My name is Aleks FairBairn and don’t worry you are not my type not that handsome really.”
Aleksandra smirked slightly before she discarded the oyster and clam into the container beside Justin.
After all Aleksandra was not gonna get into any trouble for breaking the balance of the Great Lake nope that was not in her books for the day or year or ever really.•───⋅⋆⁺‧₊☽⛦☾₊‧⁺⋆⋅───••───⋅⋆⁺‧₊☽⛦☾₊‧⁺⋆⋅───•

"Understandable. People got different tastes," Justin replied nonchalantly. He then shrugged and went back to the box of seafood.
"You might be right about throwing these in the water though. Dad's really proud of his restaurant's seafood," Justin said."He'd want me to eat it the right way," the boy said.
Then out of nowhere the boy took out a cutting board and knife from his backpack and began skillfully cutting off the shells off the shellfish.
A pile of sticks were already formed skillfully nearby for a perfect bonfire. Justin clanked together two dark colored rocks and in about four clicks the sparks lit the tinder and the little bonfire burned beautifully in the warm sunlight. Justin placed a big pot over the fire and poured clean water. Then again from his backpack, the jet black-haired boy took out a bunch of seasoning.
"Whatchu know about American seafood boil?" Justin grinned as he applied the seasoning into the boiling water. A tempting aroma of cajun seafood boil violated the air.
He threw some shrimps and crawfish into the boil. The Korean boy then took out the big salmon and began cutting it expertly into filets.
The chef of the day thinly sliced some cuts. "Sashimi," Justin grinned widely.
He cut some other salmon cuts into cubes and tossed them in the seafood boil.
Justin cleanly wrapped the leftover salmon back in the box with the other fish. "Maybe little Tigeress will love some of these too," Justin smiled wholesomely.
He then got up to finally talk to the silver-haired girl. "Pleased to meet you Aleks BareFare. You are free to join me. If not. I don't mind. More for me," Justin chuckled as he stuck his tongue out playfully. The eleven year old boy then began observing the cajun seafood boil with anticipating eyes.
