Quickly looking for the first one that appeared on the left page, her eyes widened at what she read. "GAH! Oh no no no no no, I am not doing a Basilisk! They aren't even on here, are they? No? Didn't think so," she said without for the other guy to answer for her and without really looking at the animal/wildlife table to check. She didn't think she would need to - surely they weren't crazy enough to have a mini-Basilisk on this table!

After closing the book again and repeating the procedure, she scanned the open pages for the first one: Fwooper. "Alright, that's better," she said, turning to her clipboard and writing it down for the first question.

Now...to find the fwooper. Hmm...
"I thought so," Ivan grinned, watching as she hunted for a creature in the book. His eyes widened a little at her reaction, and he was on the point of telling her that yes, the mini-Basilisk would probably be in one of the caves near the base of the mountains, but she didn't seem like she wanted to know. She seemed happy enough with the fwooper, but still, he thought he'd better clarify something.

"These are just toys, kiddo. They can't hurt you. Look," he reached out and coaxed a mini-Welsh Green dragon out of its hiding place in the mountains. It closed its mouth around his pinkie finger and chewed, but nothing happened. When he felt the point was made, he let the dragon go again. "Perfectly safe."

Oh, wait.

"EXCEPT spiders!" she added, in a loud voice.

Then, quieter, "Anything but spiders..." she gave a large, involuntary shiver/shudder.
"So... no acromantulas or quintapeds. Gotcha," Ivan glanced over the ecosystems. "How about an erumpent? They're very un-spidery."
