"We're making magical fireworks. I was thinking a giant pumpkin, for Halloween, but I'm easily convinced if you want to try something more dramatic. I've always wanted to try one of those snapping dragons, but I don't know what to add to make them move." It wasn't any fun to keep him in the dark. She needed all his brains.
Levi unzipped his onyx vinyl case and immediately zeroed in on his Irish scissors, glad they'd not been left behind by accident back in the mess he called his sleeping space. Cuts were rarely precise without them, and well; he sort of considered it his lucky charm. He slid it out of its secure place, and lifted it to examine it against the light.

It looked clean enough. Everything looked clean enough, but one could never be sure enough, so he scourged all his tools with a lazy flight of his wand.

He moved, leaned in to take a whiff of the jalapeno Katy was offering and winkled his nose. "That'll do, alright." Levi considered her question for a moment. "Bats, skeletons, spiderwebs and pumpkins. All of them. Let's give the Ilvermorny people something to talk about over dinner." It did not occur to him that perhaps setting off fireworks was probably not something the school staff would be okay with, but ohhhh well. "Will we be using smokeless powder, making it from scratch or supplanting it with something else?" Meaning something better, of course. Possibly loud, too.
