"No one at all? I mean, besides me." Tag said a little surprised. Maybe he should've seen that coming. People enjoyed pets but, maybe, they enjoyed the more normal pets, you know? Dogs, cats, hamsters, mice, things like that. Frogs needed some loving too. "One of my best friend's dad's, Alec Summers..." The blonde wasn't sure if Lily had ever talked to or had known Alec, "Is a vet. Maybe they want a frog too? Or Alec?" Tag could definitely see Alec merrily taking a frog, but with no way to contact him, Tag wasn't so sure on just getting Alec the frog before asking. But, first pick, awesome. More glancing and studying happened and Tag pointed at the slightly dotted yellow frog. "I think I want that one, I like the patterns on it." Mhm.

Then came the informational part. Tag paid close attention nodding at the types of foods Lily said the frogs were most likely to eat. Here at Hogwarts it shouldn't be too hard to find critters like that around corridors, or Tag could ask Thompson, but back home, that'd be tricky. "Moths and bugs. Got that. And, I don't have anything for them to climb on, not yet at least." Tag said. Was there spells to conjure that type of environment? "But, as long as their little home is kept warm at all times, that should be enough to do it, for the moment, yeah?" He wanted the best for his frog, even in this horrible living condition.

Every once in a while, Lily had glanced down to make sure the froglets were still okay, considering she hadn’t ever taken the terrarium outside of her dorm before now. The movement might have scared them, but they looked okay. They were still climbing the little branches and everything that were inside, replicas of the ones in Marius and Cosette’s terrarium, just kind of slowly. She might need to check on the temperature soon, but hopefully it would last until she’d gotten Tag to choose which one he wanted.

“Well, Austin said he’d take them, but I told him he could have the ones I didn’t find other homes for,” she admitted. She wasn’t going to make her boyfriend look after half a dozen frogs just for her. “I haven’t really asked a lot of people though. There’s been so much else going on lately, you know?” Snow inside the Great Hall and things like that. She couldn’t wait for that to end so they could see the sun again. Feel the sun, even. Anything but the freezing cold that was getting annoying. “Oh, I know Alec!,” she replied brightly as the former Hufflepuff head boy had been mentioned. “Maybe, but we should probably ask first. If it was even possible to ask right now.” Cue frown. Another reason she was tired of the weather.

She’d nodded as Tag had finally pointed out which frog he wanted. “Okay,” she said, shifting her hold to lower a finger inside so the chosen froglet could climb on. They’d need to make the transfer fast, so it didn’t freeze. “I’m sure it’ll be okay. Might climb the walls of the container for awhile, but it shouldn’t be hard to get other stuff for it to climb. Maybe Professor Bentley could give you some branches or something.” She couldn’t remember if he’d been in the bonsai Herbology lesson, but then, he probably wouldn’t want to put his tree in the container anyway. She wasn’t about to let the frogs climb her elm. The elm might think they were fairies and try to eat them. “Yep. At least it’s easier to keep them warm than it is us.” The frogs were a lot smaller, after all.
