Eying back to you there...that period was all over and now they were good. No need to bring up the past as you didn't see him bringing up Adi's own fear over Angel.
He couldn't help chuckling as Adi cheered them on as he and Gus hopped along the ground. It was certainly an amusing image, especially given the fact that he himself was clearly seen and Gus was more covered by the grasses in the area. At least when he was landing or had just taken off. He hoped a few more feet with his toad buddy before finally tripping over a rock as he landed and ended up on the ground. "Umph" he let out as he sprawled out on the ground where he fell. "Gus wins."
--------------------------------
Benny walked out over the grounds with Adi, his stomach a bit nervous. Brewing the transfiguration potion and thinking on what his bestie might do with it was one thing...actually trying it out, and doing it for homework credit was another. The vial was in his pocket safe and sound as well as the fur he needed to add for the actual effects to work. He wasn't going to become a badger though figuring to go for something else that his friend liked to refer to him as.
"You think this is a good place to do this?" he questioned, turning in place as he paused to look at his friend. It seeemed a good a place as any and pretty open for what was to come. The Gryffindor was trying to be as brave about this as he had been with Adi turning him into a dragon. It shouldn't be any different...right? Just the creature he was becoming in the long run was the change in the plan.
From his position on his belly on the ground, Adi could see Gus through the grass, hopping along on his toady legs. Both his friends were having quite a work out there while he lazed around snacking on froggies. Hehe.
But uh oh! There went Benny.
"Yo, you alright there, Dragon?'' He scrambled to his feet to go over to them. Yeaaaah, his friend seemed to be. Goody! And yes! Gus did win!
"Gus is the King of Hops!''
...................
They could FINALLLLY try out the potion. Finally, finally! Adi had gotten eagle feathers, keen on flying with actual wings. Again he wished he could be a Hippogriff but hey, he had to make do with what he had, right? He excitedly followed Benny towards the Willow which seemed to have become their spot for that school year.
Was his bestie nervous? Yep, it seemed so.
"Of course!'' Adi bounced on his feet as he retrieved his vial and feathers from his pockets.
"What animal have you decided on, anyway?" He hadn't told him anything. Why so secretive, Benny?
"You know...'' Adi popped open his vial.
"You should just think of this as me changing you into a dragon. There were a lot more risks back when I was doing that but nothing went wrong with your potion so you'll be okay.'' He was trying to reassure Benny. Here's to hoping it worked.
The Puffer dropped his feathers into the vial. Immediately the clear potion turned brown. Excitedly he looked at Benny.
"Go on. Add whatever you've got and we'll drink the potions at the same time.''
