Snake Snugging! With @Colin McCoire - @Kim Sato
Speech: #cfa120
Thoughts: Italics
With bated breath, Emily watched transfixed as the slithery buddy craned his shiny noggin, observing and scrutinising her hand with the insect still in her loose grasp. Emily let the little guy take his time, standing patiently as he looked about her hand. Hopefully he wasn't put off by smell of the hand cream she put on earlier. Cinnamon was quite a strong spice after all, though she didn't know if she could go one more day with dry skin.

Then with a gasp of excitement, the snake licked the insect off her finger and disappeared through its mouth. Had Emily blinked she probably would've missed it. His tongue hardly felt like anything either, no more than a tiny kiss to her finger. Maybe more like those ones where you blow a kiss to someone else... He curled elegantly around her hand. Emily's cheeks puffed with awe. She was smiling so hard her dimples were starting to hurt... But in a good way! The snake was lighter than she had expected it to be. It felt like she was holding onto the weight of a bag of nuts. With him up close, she could see all the tiny grooves in its scales. Fascinating!

She quickly darted back to his human when he proposed some more snake holding. The arm it would be this time.

As if the snake or his human even needed to ask when her expressions said it all! She nodded reassuringly. "Of course he can!" And Kibō... Such a cute name! She said softly to her new snake friend, "Welcome aboard, Kibō...!"

She quickly darted her gaze back to Colin, whom was still frazzled back at the Slytherin table. Bless him. Emily wanted to show off and hope Colin would watch her. It might've broken him out of his funk, or kept him distracted for a minute or two at least. Emily turned back round again when she felt her forearm dip in weight and soon the snake was on his way to meet her.

Though shy, Emily continued to beam at the creature. God, he was adorable.

"Hi there...! Enjoy the arm tour!" she giggled.

Kibō slithered his way up her arm and stopped at her shoulder, raising his head to gaze into her eyes. Kim regarded Emily as she paid attention to the serpent and seemed to forget everyone else around her at the time. "This your first time with a snake?" He asked her, curious. She didn't seem that disturbed by Kibō which in turn made him wonder if she'd had experience with them before.

Most girls would have screamed or at least seemed nervous around them. Hell, even boys reacted like this too. Kim finished his drink and set the mug down onto the table again. He studied Emily for a moment. She seemed pretty energetic. Maybe he could have her do the letters for him. "You busy after this?" Kim asked the girl, waiting to hear her response to his request. Hopefully she wasn't.

"I don't want to take up too much of your time but if you don't have anything to do, would you mind taking my letters up to the owlery for me? I have... something else to do but want to send them out now..." He told her, not wanting to tell her the main reason was because he didn't want to go up to the owlery due to his fear of heights. That was a weakness in his eyes.

A weakness no one else should know about if possible.

Unfortunately, some people already knew of it but they hadn't seemed to spread it around which meant he was good, at least for now. Kim couldn't have anyone else finding out because who knew what would happen if lots of people knew. Kibō's head lowered as he took his time looking at every inch of Emily's body, as if he was trying to memorize it. The snake's head rustled through her hair a little.

The urge to move was strong. Kibō was taking his sweet time scrutinising every little bit about the Huffie. Not that she was going to complain! She was holding a snake! But with every curl and shifting up and around her body, Emily was slowly succumbing to the ticklish feeling Kibō was leaving behind. Her shoulders shivered when the tickling sensation travelled further up her arms. The only thing that was keeping her from collapsing into a fit of giggles was Kibō's stunning appearance. She never knew how pretty some snakes could be.

With her eyes still trained on Kibō as she watched him slither to and fro of her torso, Emily nodded when responding to his human companion's question. "Indeed you're right! I've never held one before... But I've always wanted to, though! I remember there used to be a reptile house back home. Before I came to Hogwarts, my guardian and I would walk past it on the way home from school. They had snakes, lizards and salamanders in the window. I always dreamt of holding them when I was big enough... But then it closed down. I never really knew why..."

All Emily knew was that closing that reptile house was one of many crimes committed in the world. It was the best store ever!

Kibō locked eyes with her and Emily's smile widened to the point where her cheek bones were starting to ache. She let her new scaly friend have a nosy around her shoulders and facial features. She ensured she stayed still when he decided to slip along and past her hair some. A very sociable snake, this little one was!

"The Owlery you say?" Emily repeated, perking up in response to the lad's question. She gave another friendly nod, still mindful of Kibō's wandering tour around her upper half. "I still have my own letters to deliver, so why not! I can take yours up there if you have somewhere you need to be!"

Emily carefully rolled her shoulders when she felt them getting just a teensy bit stiff. Not the fault of Kibō at all! Staying still to ensure his comfort was just a bit taxing here and there when she was standing there all rigid. She looked back behind her. Colin was still in his "Aftermath of the Wrath of the Mother" phase.

"Colin! Don't you want to come and say hello?"

If he was going to stare off into he space, he could do it into Kibō's lovely eyes for a change of scenery that wasn't the wall ahead of him! And lovely Kibō and his eyes were... Emily could fawn over this little guy all day.

Emily lifted a finger to trail a gentle stroke along Kibō's spine. "You're a wee sweetheart, Kibō... Just like my Tavra," she said fondly.

"I'm almost not looking forward to handing him back to you," she laughed at the boy. "But I know I can't be hogging all the snake snuggles. Besides, I still have to owl those letters for you!"
