SPOILER!!: As cautious as a Ravenclaw too :P

So, he turned and set his feet forward and stopped almost abruptly as she had. "Whats a nundu?" Serious question here. And a concerning one. He didn't like all creatures and it was either that or a mad-woman's muttering of 'no-do'. Which, would be equally concerning.
Holding onto Lex's hand, Rhydian leaned forward and peered around the first corner seeing nothing but green and look at that....more green.
Somehow he seemed to have missed the severity in her tone--actually...no....no he didn't. That was just Rhydian. Sometimes she could swear he thought that grinning was the answer to most all problems and while it never hurt to nod and smile sometimes, other times it just got another roll of her eyes, this one more playful than the first. Past experiences taught her that there was no knocking the Ravenclaw out of him. It was just ALWAYS there even though it shouldn't be.
Now given the fact she thought they were all good to go, the sudden pull back actually sent a jolt up her hand. Ow. Warn a girl next time, Merlin.
Alexa's gaze rose to meet his in obvious question before he asked his own question.
"You're kidding right? Only messing with me because I told you to stop being so smart." Obviously that was it, why
else wouldn't he know what a Nundu was?
Being the less cautious of the two, Lex nearly pulled away when he opted to
check behind the hedge before proceeding. This wasn't going to become a habit, not if he wanted to keep her hand and not when there was clearly nothing there. See? Just bare wall. She pulled him down the walk way, insisting they keep moving even before she went back to her explanation.
"The Nundu's the most dangerous creature in the wizarding world. Kinda like....muggle leopard things only waaaaaay bigger and more powerful and no less than 100 wizards have every taken one down."
Brilliant things they were.
"This one idiot tried raising one, got himself outted when he forgot to stun it one day."
