Toad for Gryffindor Ability is nothing without Opportunity | | Creativity is Intelligence having FUN Who'd ever thought toad chasing can take a lot outta ya eh?
Maybe when he was 5 years old he can do this all day-- which he did once upon a time, but now he can already feel the weariness of chasing slimy amphibians through the muck and the detritus. "Incarcolvo!" he whipped the spell at the rocks just outlining the shore. Out sprang the netting. Did he catch it???
Apparently not, because a second later he saw the toad hopping away! "Hey come back here!" he called out, giving chase to the croaker. "Incarcolvo! Incarcolvo!" He was tossing out the spell in almost every beat of the toad's hopping. But this was a wily one and it dodged his nets at every turn.
He stopped to catch his breath. He had to be smart about this. The more he gives chase the faster these toads move. They knew he was coming after them. So what if.... they didnt know?
He straightened up and looked around. It was chaotic around here, what with everybody trying to catch 'em all. So he walked around, tiptoeing mostly peeking around corners and hidden niches, being as sneaky as these slimy hoppers--
-- oh look theres one over there!
The Curly Top crept around, pretty much from behind the small crevice by the tree. He cant see now, but if he aimed right this croaker wont have anywhere to hop to-- "--Incarcolvo!"
BAM! Got one finally! "Into the tank you go!" |
