SPOILER!!: “prof fergersnout”

Solomon shrugged. “Goliath doesn’t live in a pond. He lives with me, always has done, don’t know why he would abandon me for a cold pond.” He always gave him treats and a cosy lap to sit on. There was a defeated tone about Solly’s voice now. It was quite sad to be without his trusty toad.

Solomon wasn’t sure he’d ever heard of palaeontology, he shrugged again (like a proper moody teen) after she said the word, and the confusion had almost caused him to miss everything that she had explained, but he did catch her little joke about t-rexes and let out a giggle. He reckoned there were wizard dinosaurs once. “Oh, yeah that would be awesome.” While he didn’t enjoy hanging out with teachers as such, Solly would definitely pencil in a trip to see cool objects.

UGH.

He couldn’t really say no to a professor, could he?

Solly whined very quietly and took a quick glance around him to check nobody important was watching. He crouched beside Professor Fergersnout, although keeping an appropriate distance, then gave the most halfhearted, “Ribbit,” known to man.

Without even looking for the toad, Solly said, “it’s not working.” Followed by a HUFF.

If helping one student locate his beloved toad was her good deed of the day then she’d feel incredibly accomplished. “I don’t proclaim myself to be a toad expert but I’m fairly certain they live in ponds, don’t they?” She was no Ravenclaw but it seemed the logical place to start. Never mind that he’d already searched its shoreline, the Great Lake was particularly large and he couldn’t have scoured every inch of it surely? *“No that would be paleontology, I study history* young sproutling” she chuckled. “Magical history to be precise, the story of our ancestors from years passed. Dinosaurs unfortunately did not possess any magical qualities as far as I’m aware although a Tyrannosaurus Rex waving a wand in his tiny little arms does conjure up quite an amusing image.” The accuracy of his spells would be a little questionable, perhaps that was the true explanation to the disappearance of the species? “I have quite the collection of artefacts in my office should you want to visit one day.” All obtained legally of course. Hopping around on the floor was quite the task for the middle-aged woman and so she sort of crawled in a squat instead calling out for the toad and expecting her young student to join in. “This’ll be far more croak effective if you join in too” she glanced up encouragingly. Nevermind should anyone catch them, there was a perfectly reasonable explanation for the odd behaviour. Hmm.. Yes. The Weasley Swamp would be another place to conduct an investigation but they were out here for now and the Professor only had an hour before she had other places to be. Unfortunately communicating with amphibians would not be a reasonable explanation for tardiness. Solomon shrugged. “Goliath doesn’t live in a pond.
