But anyway...

"Woooooooow..." he whispered, cheeks flushed in admiration and AWE. The fire seed basically fell into the bucket with an unceremonious THUD as it rolled out of his hands. Attention drawn to Charlotte and her wand at the moment....so her words just barely registered. Ish. "Huh? OH! OKAY!" And any extras he could maybe sneak out of class like he had done in Herbology and keep under his bed juuuuuuuuuust in case he FINALLY found himself that dragon egg.

Thus his somewhat capable 13-year-old hands were thrust back into the fire and he plucked another one...two...okay three for good measure since most everyone had already taken their share and there were still plenty in here soooo...waste not what you see, right?

Right.

"Okay. I think that's good," he nodded as they joined the first in the bucket. "Is it too heavy? I can try and carry it...." Or she could do a Levitation Charm and he could get all googly eyed at her again. That too.

"We need a few more. 5 each." Char reminded him, and then she peeked into the bucket again to be sure they had enough as Derf added the fireseeds - five pieces each? And then a few extras in case anyone else needed some and hadn't got enough. Did pieces mean pieces of seeds, or 5 seeds total? And did the size of the seeds matter? It wasn't the most PRECISE of measurements, was it? OH WELL!

"Its okay, I'm STRONG." She even put the bucket down for a second and flexed at him, despite the fact that her robes meant that it didn't really show anything except that she had arms in the first place. She hoisted the bucket up again.

"I'll carry it. Lets go get the next ones. You remember what they were?" Because she had forgotten, honestly, having not written it down and subsequently getting completely distracted by the fireseed part of this adventure. Uhh... but she did remember it was 5 each of some kind of leaves and 32grams each of whatever the other thing was. Stars? Something with stars.

She was the most helpful seventh year ever. ONWARD!
