However, Beau had been adamant, and since that meant they were on the top floor, Remy figured they could hunt the fireplaces on the way back down to the Potions lab. If they still had enough time.

However, when they finally made it to the library, the grin on his face was wide and real. ”Yeah, we got shown how to harvest them in Herbology a few years ago. If you put your gloves on, you can help me harvest them, okay? It’ll be very warm to touch, but it won’t burn you if you follow my lead. Okay?”

While Beau got his gloves on, Remy took out the second metallic container he had in bag, along with his gloves. ”Now, we learnt that the seeds have to be kept on fire so the way you store them is really important.” He wasn’t sure if Beau was even listening, but he felt better at least trying to include him. ”There is a charm to heat up the container so the seeds stay on fire. It is called Chadensis, and you just twist your twist ever so slightly - but its a very soft motion.” He glanced at Beau, before casting the charm on his container, which he let rest on his glove so he wouldn’t feel the heat.

”Okay, and to actually pick the seeds, all we need to do is reach into the fire and grip them gently, and pull then put them straight in here.” He motioned to the heated container in his hand. ”We need 5 of them, they are easy to pluck.” The Hufflepuff said, reaching into the fire to twist one seed gently from the firey bush. ”See? Your turn.” If he wanted to put his hand into the fire that is… If not, he’d collect the other four too.
