They could sense fear. Maybe if Cole talked to the snake, he would start to feel more comfortable. Maybe.

Naya was so focused on her snake, it took her a minute to realize that things wer starting to go all Hogwartsy in the class. Some of her classmates started talking crazy talk and then.......snakes were everywhere. Naya looked at Cole, hoping that he wouldn’t freak out, now that there were snakes on the loose. Fortunately, the professor got everything under control quickly. What was that all about?


Talk to him? How did you talk to a snake and how did Naya know that the snake she was grasping was a he and not a she? With clear reluctance and an anxiety that Cole tried to push down he took a long breath to steady himself before he took a step closer to the snake and Naya. Looking into his girlfriend's eyes he said "I shall try and do as you say. Just please keep a strong hold on him." Casting his eyes down to meet the snakes he lowered his voice as he took another little step forward. "Hi, I’m Cole. I like your dark green skin colour and black markings, it’s cool! Would it be okay if I called you Zorro?" Not getting a hiss in response Cole took it as a good sign and braved reaching out to pet the snake very gently on the head, a couple of times.

He had just pulled his hand back when a few of his classmates started acting funnily and saying crazy stuff. And then suddenly snakes we’re everywhere! Just like any other day at Hogwarts. Cole did his best to not freak out on the spot when the snakes fell out of the crates and started to slither around on the ground and towards him. Luckily Professor Kitridge acted swiftly to get things under control so Cole could focus on their next task. "Naya, are we just supposed to set Zorro down and observe and jot down what he does and try to interpret it?"
