The Kenaz rune he'd grabbed lit up, and Mo nestled it in his palm against his wand. With a flick, Mo had a very sturdy little fire going, and he indicated that Sophie should hold the skillet out over it. It only needed it for a few minutes, and then Mo poured in the batter for a medium sized pancake. "What do you eat on your pancakes? Syrup?" He peeked at Sophie as he carefully directed the flame to heat up the entire skillet.

Right. Just one. Okay. Sophie was considerably nervous now, but handed off the thermos and took the heavy skillet first with one hand, but then grabbed it with the other, too, upon realizing how heavy it was. "Merlin, where'd you get this thing?" She steadied it, though, and held the skillet perfectly still as directed.

"You're so good at the chanting thing," she noted seriously. "How d'you not get tripped up and say something a little wrong? And what happens if y'do? D'you just have to start over?" Not that she ever intended to get any of it wrong, as she'd stare down at her notes if she really needed to be sure to get a chant right, but she was just curious. And Mo seemed like a good person to ask.

"Syrup, uh huh." What else? She adjusted her grip a little on the handle of the skillet, getting a better hold so she'd be able to flip the pancake in a moment. "What about you?" Carefully, then, when the pancake started to bubble a little, Sophie held the handle of the skillet in her non-dominant hand successfully, but with a shaky arm - she wiggled her eyebrows at Mo as if to show off her not-at-all incredible strength - and picked up the spatula with her dominant hand. "Readyyyy..." She tucked the spatula under the pancake, peeked under to make sure it looked like it had cooked enough on that side, then in one swift motion, she flipped the pancake over on the skillet. Like a pro.

"Cat would be so proud of us."
