Alex looked at the instructions for this assignment that he'd scribbled on a spare piece of parchment. He had to...sing to it now?? Erm...ok. He'd heard of talking to plants before, because they liked the carbon dioxide you exhaled on them when you were talking but singing? Did it reallllllly matter? Sigh. Gotta do what you gotta do to get house points!

Slowly and VERY VERY quietly, he started to sing, leaning in close to the plant so no one around here could hear him.

"Hush little fire plant, don't say a word,
Daddy's gonna buy you a...phoenix bird,
and if that phoenix don't burst into flames,
Daddy's gonna buy you a...Salamander?"


That was all the fire related animals Alex could think of.

He repeated this verse over and over, doing a small dance around the pot that basically consisted of him bending his knees and waving his hands around slowly. He looked like a fool, but at least everyone else had to do this for homework, not just him, so he wasn't going to be alone in his foolishness.
