He would protect him? Against the Professor? Kyroh had definitely picked the right person to come to. Maybe not ALL of the older kids were serious and quiet and sort of scary.
Huh? Someone calling his name? Sounded like his name. Turning his head away from the Huffepuff, Kyroh just stared at the older boy who he did not know. Buuuut he knew his name? "Kyroh. That's me." He nodded and everything. "Who are you?" Wait a second he'd help him!?! "You will??"
That was a GOOD thing right? He wouldn't have to touch the dragon's heart?
But still....poor dragon. Sigh. "I was just going to watch Mr. Protector-" He POINTED at the Hufflepuff beside him. "-But okay i'll be right back!" Placing his notebook on the table next to the Hufflepuff, Kyroh ran back over to where he was sitting before. He paused stopping dead in his tracts before running back to the Ravenclaw. "Oh, and thank you!!" Turning Kyroh ran back again. Lifting the cauldron up from the table he wobbled back over to the Hufflepuff and the boy who knew his name, and managed to place the cauldron on the burner without spilling too much water. Making one more trip to get his kit he returned. He was behind! But he could catch up! Just.... "How do I make fire?" That was important...yeah?
Merlin. This kid. It was like watching a very energetic puppy chase his own tail around the room. Mo had never been that young, had he?
He lit the fire under the boy's cauldron with a non-verbal
Incendio... and then felt bad about it. Mo had been SO proud of doing it before, and now he was feeling terrible over not teaching the kid and doing his work for him. Good feelings were lagging, here.
"The incantation for lighting a fire is
Incendio, and you can control how high the heat goes with your wand. I'm Mo, by the way. Marcus Branxton, but people call me Mo." So now they were introduced properly.
Mo eyed his pocketwatch briefly before turning his attention away from the boy and back on the griffin claw. He talked as he worked, not overtly talking
to Kyroh but definitely talking AT him. "You have to clean everything before you use it, and I like to clean it after I use it. The incantation is
Scourgify, and you might want to try it on your tools, if you haven't already."
Mo cleaned out his mortar as he spoke and then dropped the griffin claw into it. Using the cleaned pestle, Mo ground the claw into little bits, all while keeping one eye on the watch, and the other on the boy. He needed more eyeballs here, clearly!
Now then... griffin claw ground up, and Mo went off to retrieve some heart for Kyroh. Again, he measured out two kilograms with clammy hands and a sick taste in his mouth, but when he brought back the heart, he smiled at the younger boy. "Turn up the heat, and I'll drop in the heart."
