He nodded slowly as his blue eyes shifted from Cutty to Zander to the new kid (Benny) -- who got a genuine smile and nod as a way of welcoming him to the group -- to some other guy he didn't know (Caleb) and then back to Cutty. Jeez, so many ideas and all tumbling off so quickly. Let a dude catch a break.

It was making him think. Think CAREFULLY because he did NOT want this to go wrong, thank you very much. They were the coolest group and they were going to prove it by making the BEST firepit, mkay?

"OKAY," Yes, he was speaking up. "So heeeeey!" New person. (Benny) "I think the general consensus is that we make it as big as possible because the bigger the better," OBVIOUSLY. "And to make it into an amphitheatre shape." High walls and sunken in in the middle. He glanced around at the others to see if they agreed too. Speak now or forever hold your peace. As for strong person (Caleb's) question, Grayson turned his attention to him and said, "WELL. If it's round, it'll be harder to be broken. Something to do with surface area and strength and whatnot." He waved a hand to show that he clearly knew what he was talking about but wasn't going to bother explaining properly. Basically, circles were better.

"ANYWAYS. To make it EVEN STRONGER, maybe we could build it up so that there are even numbers of different size rocks? We can line up the big ones side by side and then fit the smaller ones in the gaps. And sticking charms will be our best buds." Uh huh. "And the stronger looking rocks can go on the OUTSIDE. The really heavy ones." It was a bit like multiple people trying to shield the weakling. The weakling went in the middle, some namby pamby people surrounded that one and the strength in the circle of people grew stronger and stronger until the STRONGEST were at the outside.

Also, the sooner they got this talk over and done with, the sooner they can start with assembling. JUST SAYING.

Text Cut: Special duty peeps (Kyroh+Hayden) and we do see you Gold :3

....................... Oh jeez. Someone hadn't taken their potion? Oh Merlin, what was he meant to do NOW?!

It seemed as though Cutty had an answer. His blue eyes looked over at Kyroh and Hayden and he nodded slowly. Uh huh. This tied in WELL, actually. He was going to be leaving the FIYAH people to discuss and maaaaaaybe get started if they wanted to go ahead with his plan, mkay?

In the meantime, he rolled up his sleeves and said, "Okay, come here, you two." Special force people. "I'm going to teach you a really useful spell that you can use to stick two objects together: like a bow to a gift box." Or to secure that piece of gum in your arch enemy's hair. "The incantation," he continued, pulling out his wand, "is Adhaero. Adhaeeeeeero. Ahd-high-row!" Uh huh. "The wand movement is tracing whatever you want sticking with your wand while saying your incantation."

Oh jeez. This could be confusing. "Here. If we want to stick this little bugger," He grabbed a small pebble and held it up. "with that big rock over there," He nodded at a very large rock not too far away. "we trace the outline of this tiny rock while saying Adhaero. Then, we go and smack it against that big rock to see if it sticks. Make sense?"

Heeeeey Gold, we see you!

The Gryffindor was almost beginning to think his wish to just work was making him invisible to people. Or maybe just his short stature. But then it seemed he had finally caught someone's attention. "Hey..." Benny returned, catching the greeting sent his way as well as the smile and nod previously. So they were getting down to real business now, the third year listening intently to what was being discussed.

The bigger the better.

Okay, Benny could go for that. The better to control a fire that could be as big as a bonfire if one wanted it to be. Amphitheater shape? He paused in thought with a frown trying to decipher what it meant. OH?! High walls and deep inside. A light bulb went off and he nodded in agreement as Grayson continued on with his thoughts about using big rocks with smaller stones in between and sticking charms securing it all in place.

"Sounds like a plan..." the Gryffindor mused. Ready to get started, he already had a rock already in hand.
