Therefore, she’d had to leave for that, and now she was preparing to meet up with Tag to let him pick one of the frogs Marius and Cosette had had a few months ago. She was still looking for homes for most of the others as well, but he was going to get first pick. She’d carefully gotten the duplicated terrarium that held all of the froglets out of her dorm and slipped out into the corridor easily.
“Hey,” she said with a smile as she saw the Gryffindor waiting outside the knocker. She’d almost run right into him, but everything was okay. Froglets were still safe in the charmed terrarium, since she’d definitely not wanted them to get cold. Tropical frogs and freak blizzards didn’t mix very well, but that’s where charms came in. Even when she’d had two terrariums to deal with due to the influx. At least they weren’t large.
Ah, there came Lily, with her collection of frogs at the ready as well. Tag tried to glance a peek at them while she made her way over to her. There were a few and Tag wondered if he could decide which one he wanted, or Lily had them all picked out for people, in case others had gone to her about wanting a frog for their own.
"
There you are." Tag said as she stood a few feet from him. It wasn't like Tag had expected her to arrive from anywhere but he'd been waiting nonetheless, not too long though. Just a normal amount of time. "
So, do I get to choose which frog I want, or is that for you to decide? Any tips as well?" He asked. Tips would be appreciated, especially with this weather. Tag figured that a mad blizzard wasn't exactly something frogs favored, any types of frogs for that matter.
