Wait... had he heard the instructions properly? They were going to... race the Puffskeins?
Alec glanced down at the peach-coloured ball of fluff that was Arietty, sizing her up. Was she fast? He didn't know. She had bounced past him when they were going for a walk around the playpen. Maybe there was hope for this team after all. Because Alec certainly couldn't take part in a race. Not in the state he was in.
Race. Yeah. This was a race. And if he didn't get started, all the bushes would be gone, leaving none for his little creature. Bending down slowly, the Hufflepuff reached over and held up the Puffskein, patting her fur as he did so. "So... hey, Ari! We're going to go for a little race, okay? It'll be fun!" The last bit was added in hastily, in case the little creature thought that he was not so enthusiastic about the idea of a race. ... Which he wasn't. But the Puffskein didn't need to know that.
"So... a race. Yeah. You'll get food, too! You see those bushes? They have berries in them. Eat as much as you like all the way until the end, okay?" Bouncing. He was going to take that as a good sign.
Setting the little creature down, Alec whipped out his wand yet again. The two minutes had been up. ... Or would be up soon so... "Animalis Fidelis!" There. Now to test whether it had worked. "Come on, then, Ari!"
