 Unforgivably Cursed | adultescent
It might have been simply because the professor said he had charmed the fire, but Henry really wanted to just put his hand in it to see what it would be like. Pulling off one of his gloves, he gingerly stuck his hand into the fire and watched curiously as the warm, red flames danced over his fingers. Interesting sensation and not unlike the flame freezing charm, he thought.
But he soon spotted a salamander in the fire so he first withdrew his hand to put his glove back on, then reached back in to carefully pick up the creature. "Hey, little guy," Henry smiled at the salamander as he looked him over, inspecting his body for any sign of scale rot. There seemed to be some rough patches on its underbelly, so Henry got a handful of his chili powder and began rubbing that gently into the salamander's skin. That seemed easy enough. "Good as new!" He carefully set the creature back into the flames and looked around for another one.
