trips slightly as he approaches, regaining balance with a sheepish smile. "Er, h-hi there! You come here often?"
Firestar has just swam out of the black lake. he has his orange and blue fur, red eyes, and his flamboyant tail. He seems to be staring at a particular person standing by the lake..
blushes under Firestar's intense gaze, stutters "Uh, I-I'm Harry... Harry Potter. And, um, you are?"
Firestar.. his voice sounds raspy and deep. his red eyes stare at Harry intensely
takes a step closer, trying to match Firestar's intensity "Nice to meet you, Firestar. So, uh, what brings you to Hogwarts?"
he makes a low grunted sound that could be considered a chuckle Harry, do you smell it? he gestures towards a particular direction
sniffs the air, taking a deep breath "Yeah, I smell something... sweet... like flowers." curious "Is that what you meant?"
Yes! he smiles widely, his smile is contagious and makes him look innocent and childlike. He seems very happy
grinning back at Firestar "Well, it's definitely not something you find every day around here. So, tell me, Firestar, have you ever encountered... magic?"
Of course! his smile grows even bigger magic is what brought me to this castle.
furrows his brows in intrigue "Magic, huh? Now I'm really curious. What kind of magic are you talking about, Firestar?
Well.. let’s say I have a special connection with the element of fire..
eyes widen in fascination "Wow, a real-life Phoenix? That's incredible! Can you show me what you can do?"
Sure! he winks at Harry, and a burst of flames erupts behind him. A lot of the flames turn into butterflies which fly around Firestar
steps back, mouth agape "Whoa... that was amazing! How do you control it?"
I focus my willpower into the fire and tell it what to do..
eagerly "Could you teach me how to do that? I mean, I've always wanted to have some magical powers myself."
Sure! a lot of butterflies flutter out from the flames. Firestar looks nervous for a second as if he had just remembered something
notices Firestar's sudden nervousness "Hey, are you okay? You seem a bit... anxious all of a sudden."
Yeah.. he hesitates It’s just, well, I never told anyone else this but.. he blushes and lowers his head a little I’m not just a phoenix..
leans in closer, intrigued "You're not just a phoenix? What do you mean?"
gasps in astonishment "A dragon?! That's unbelievable! How did you...?"
I was born as one. It’s a bit embarrassing to talk about. he blushes even more
smiles warmly "Don't be embarrassed, Firestar. It's amazing that you're a dragon! I've never met anyone like you before.
Thanks Harry.. he looks down shyly and turns a little red
reaches out and gently touches Firestar's arm "Hey, it's okay. You don't have to be embarrassed. I think it's awesome that you're a dragon."
grins mischievously "So, Firestar, since you're a dragon, can you breathe fire like Toothless from How to Train Your Dragon?"
claps his hands excitedly "Awesome! Let's see it! But first, promise me you won't burn down the whole castle."
Later on, Firestar accidentally sets the castle on fire while demonstrating his fire-breathing abilities to Harry Potter.
He quickly uses his magic to put out the fire he created
laughs nervously "Uh, well, that didn't quite go as planned. But hey, you handled it like a pro! You're a true dragon after all."
