Meh..."Yea, I'll show you sometime." Once again, Dylan was convinced he'd never be able to cast it, again.
They had to be nearing something important...because the darkness seemed almost impenetrable now...and then he heard Kinsley.
WHAT was he splashing water on now?
"Lumos maxima!" More light poured into the area...throwing Kinsley and his foot into sharp relief. What was that wrapped around his foot? A plant?! There were MORE of them...? Dylan had had ENOUGH of these stupid things...and them wanting to eat people...and carrying them away. Just...GAH.
Snatching Theodore's wand out of his hand, Dylan pointed it fiercely at the slithering plant, which seemed to be scared? of the light, and said, "Diffindo!" The Slytherin could feel the wand resisting him...but the spell was enough to cut the tendril that was wrapping more tightly by the second around his ankle. "Incendio," came next and the plant was moving as quickly as it could away from it's flames, which died seconds later. "Devil Snare," he was convinced. "Stupid plants."
Holding the wand back off, he pushed forward, motioning for Theodore to follow. "I think we're close...."
THE PLAAAAAAANT.
It was suffocating his poor foot. It would need to be amputated. He'd be in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. How could he EVER play Quidditch again? WAHHHHHHHH...
And then, without even warning him, Dylan was shooting all kinds of spells at the plant.
Or HIM - more precicely. "
WATCH IT." The boy bellowed, then remembered that this was his captain, but also his elder, so he had to be kind, right? "
I-I mean good shot, capt!" Finally, after the fire breathing spell, the plant died down and released his foot. It ached only a little bit, but enough to get sympathy off of Ella later when he told her. Yup.
"
Thanks." And on they went. Theo was quiet for a bit, but only because he was trying to figure out if Dylan had said 'stupid plants' or 'stupid pants'....

*MELLOW*
He agreed on both. The stupid plant was a stupid pants.
