They get to exchange ideas and theories and whatnot. “…if it’s the Cold Ones…then…why are they targeting Hogwarts?” Right? Why the students? Or…the staff? Ethan’s eyes widened, and paused for a second…then finished re-potting one of the plants. “…do you think the Cold Ones are after the arm that Professor Flamsteed showed us in Defence? Maybe…maybe the arm is some sort of…homing device for them?” Merlin. If that’s the case then they should destroy the arm pronto!

The third year glanced at Simon and copied his facial expression when his fellow snake looked like he was about to sneeze. “You all right, mate?” Really, he can’t afford one Simon Holden to be sick. Not when they are silently being attacked by dark forces that they can’t see.

Simon seems to be fine, and the third year watched and gave him a thumbs up after casting the Placement Charm on the said pot. Don’t you just love a Slytherin’s brilliance? Moving on, Ethan continued to inspect the room for plants that can be salvaged, and re-potted them on the huge pot Simon made.

#TeamHolmes is winning.

The Cold Ones did thrive in frigid weather. As soon as Ethan mentioned the point about whether or not the Cold Ones had powers over the weather. He bit his lip. His brain churned. These conversations were good with Ethan. They always propelled each other forward to consider other possibilities. That was a good point. They hadn't learnt about if the Cold Ones did have that power, but who knew? They didn't really understand how they were created properly so maybe they did have that power because they used to be witches and wizards. He paused. "Right. We don't know if they do for sure, but they were once witches and wizards. What if they retained some of their abilities?" he offered. Then what else could be causing the weather? Dementors? Simon didn't know the answer to Ethan's next suggestion but then when Ethan went further to explain the arm, Simon's blue eyes widened. OH Merlin. "Maybe... Maybe.. OH Merlin. Maybe we should go do some research on this ASAP." Or talk to the Professors.

"Yeah, I'm alright. It's just.." he began and then all of a sudden he sneezed under his arm. Achoooo! Eugh. He blinked a couple of times. "It's just allergies. Pollen." Simon Holden wasn't getting sick or was he? No. No. It was just allergies. He was healthy. He had his vitamins today. He'd been a good boy.

After potting up some more of the plants, he glanced over at Ethan. "Do you think we have enough room on the wooden sled for five more pots?"
