I just saw it on a chocolate frog card and quite liked it. [He gives half a shrug, feeling a bit silly. But it's nice, considering no one else had ever been impressed by the name (he'd had to fight an uphill battle against it being renamed a good number of bolder and more wizardly things.) Or the toad, for that matter.] Fawkes is here? That's your phoenix, right? Trevor would like that, I think. He could always use some company.
[And now that they're closer, Neville tugs on the proffered gloves automatically, wearing the distinct look of someone thoroughly harassed by the circumstances. He trails off to stare a bit, agape, at the rather rude toad inching its way closer.]
I- yes, of course. Has someone enchanted them? I thought we couldn't do that sort of thing here.
[It seems quite a Weasley Twins thing to do, now that he thinks about it.]
