astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf HOLY FLAMING SALAMANDERS!
Alright. In hindsight he knew that his inquiry about dragons had been a little too fantastical, but couldn't fault the Hufflepuff for hoping, you know? His eyes were still WIDE with wonder and excitement when his more practical guess had proven correct. SALAMANDERS!
BUT HE COULD ONLY SAY ONE THING?! Oh what cruel kind of punishment was this?!
Mind racing to think of his FAVORITE nugget of information regarding magical salamanders meant that his hand remained lowered for an unbearably long time. The fire element of it all was a given, hence the fire pit, so the Hufflepuff did not feel like stating the obvious. Comparing the differences in diet, where the magical counterparts they would be dealing with, should be fed pepper while out of the flames was interesting but not THE most interesting bit. Them representing the runic number six was INTERESTING, but it had little to do with the magical properties of the creature itself. That was simply a meaning that witches and wizards had given the creature. Mentioning their limb regeneration capabilities? That was a neat little link between both the muggle and magical. Sam had mentioned the NEAT thing about one being a reptile and the other being an amphibian, to that was out TOO.
Oh fudgesticks. WHAT TO SHARE?!
"....are we gonna treat scale rot?" he asked instead. Since thinking more on what to share about the creatures (JUST ONE THING?! FOR WHY?!)
was practically making steam come out of his ears.
