Or so far in Finn's knowledge they had been more helpful than harmful.

Anyway, candy. Finn went over to the food table and glanced around it, looking for his all time favorite candy. "Aha!" He said at once grabbing two packages and handing one to Thornton to look at. "These are chocolate frogs. You may have heard about them on the train. It's really sweet and they even come with a card in each pack." He said grinning as he carefully opened his, preventing the chocolate treat from escaping. "Be careful though because the frog is charmed to be able to jump like a real frog... it's just chocolate though." Finn warned as he trapped his frog between two fingers and started to enjoy his treat, waiting to see how Thornton would do.

Chocolate frogs. That seemed a good place to start. He turned the package over in his hands, aware of the jumping, but having never attempted to have one before. As Finn began to enjoy his treat, Thornton considered his box.

Tenatively tearing at the edge, he tried to keep one hand completely over the opening that was being made. But once the opening was made, Thornton's hand slipped. Bumbling, Thornton dropped the box, but managed to trap the frog between his hands before it could jump away.

"Ok. Candy that takes a little effort," he said, smiling, before taking a bite. His eyes grew wide as he savored the chocolate. He'd been allowed only the tiniest bits over the years. Licking his fingers as he finished off the treat, he bent down to collect his card. "Alberic Grunnion?" Thornton made a face as he read the back of the card. "Inventing dungbombs gets you on a chocolate frog card?" He was.. unimpressed.

But the candy. OH THE CANDY.

Slipping the card in his pocket, he looked to Finn for some direction. MORE PLEASE?
