The very second he'd returned the frozen salamanda to its nest of flames in the container thing, another escaped. What the? ... WHYYY were they getting out? Why couldn't he just take them out to practice on? Huh?
Never mind the fact that doing that would require plunging his hand into a container of flames and hot things. So, maybe it was better this way.
But MEEEEEEEEEP! WHERE'D IT GO?! Snapping out of his thoughts, Zeke scanned his surroundings. Where was that rascally fiery lizard? HUHHHH?
Pacing around the container, Zeke spotted it huddling against one side of the surface, but not for long, as it took off again, scuttling across the floor, it's tail fanning one way and the next as it went. "I won't hurt you," he said to it, walking behind it. It was actually rather pretty, the way that they GLOWED, like they were made of hot coals instead.
"It might be uncomfortable, but you'll defrost or... unfreeze, eventually..." he encouraged, taking a few more steps around it in an attempt to block its path. Did lizards notice things like that? Or would it set fire to his shoes? It DID get closer and for fear of his robes catching fire, as well as his shoes, Zeke jumped backward a short way.
Jabbing his wand at his target, Zeke practiced the charm once more. "Glacius." He didn't miss this time, and just as he had with the last, he picked up the frozen little guy and stroked the top of his head. Admiring the salamanda before returning it.
"Actually... are you a lizard thing? Like... a reptile? Or are you an am... amphibian?" Was that the word? Meh.. sounded right to him. It might also be something he would have to look up soon, especially if he wanted to do the extra credit question.
