 Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - ❄ Lunar Library Lurker ❄ - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror
Gideon was glad that the winter was finally at bay and the weather was finally getting to be a decent temperature. And he certainly was going to take advantage of the nice atmosphere outside, the boy deciding to take a walk on the grounds. As he walked down the pathways, his left hand reached into his pocket of his robes, absently fingering the silver egg that resided there most days. The fourth year didn't notice it at first as his fingertips brushed the metal, but as his palm wrapped around it, his skin burned with a heat he hadn't felt from it before and he quickly pulled his hand away.
What in Merlin's Beard?
Easing his hand back inside his pocket hesitantly, he reached to grab hold of the egg once more and took it out with his hand this time. There had to be something to bring it back to a more normal temperature and he did his rest to remember what he could. The Gryffindor knew argentum was the first part meaning silver but he wasn't sure of the second half. He sighed wishing now he kept the notes on the subject with the egg especially when he carried it about with him outside the dorms. Gideon thought back to what they had learned and what he had used the last time, his other hand moving to retrieve his wand. If he used calidus for warmth then he needed to use a cold spell.
Think Gideon...think...FRIGIDUS!
"Argentum frigidus," he finally cast using the swish and tap wand movement associated with it that he remembered from before. Over time the silver egg started to cool and he let out a sigh of relief glad to not have let it get unfixable. Gingerly rubbing it as he put his wand away, Gideon continued down the route of his walk as if nothing had really happened.
