"There you have it then," he said while shifting his hand's movements from rubbing his shoulders to patting him on the back. "Can hardly expect yourself to defeat a boggart on your first go. Not to mention that doing so also requires you getting over your biggest fear at the same time." It may be a bit unfair of him to say so, but he personally felt that those who did so really were not as terrified of that fear as they thought. Not unless they had entertained it and attempted to reconcile their fear in their own time.
"You ought to get yourself some chocolate," he suggested.
"I didn't think I h-had any fears." West said with a frown.
"Not proper ones, nothing what I couldn't deal with on my own." And he didn't know that something like that could become a boggart.
"I thought boggarts could only be like.... things."
He was definitely calmer now and the tall boy nodded.
"Yeah. Chocolate." Probably should.
Breathe.
"... thanks Flammy."
