Pairing: None
Characters: Anthony Goldstein
Summary: What does Anthony do when he finds a littlecorn snake in his path?

He was actually pretty indifferent toward snakes. Then again, Anthony Goldstein tended to be pretty indifferent to just about everything. Well. Except for heights. He didn't like those too much. But anyway, he was looking at this snake down in front of him in the path. Just a little thing. Probably not hatched too long ago. It was kinda a rusted green with streaks and bands and diamonds of darker green. He knew enough about the thing to know it was just a little corn snake. Probably not poisonous. It's something he learned from his NEWT Care of Magical Creatures class at school despite the fact that corn snakes were neither magical, nor very fascinating.

Something had gotten a hold of the thing's tail end. It was a bit ripped up.

He'd learned something about Slytherins earlier in the year. Some of them were downright rude. Others just needed a little care. Maybe snakes were the same way. Really, he should have just left the thing. It was probably someone's escaped pet. They'd be looking for it.

But he picked it up. Maybe Daphne would know what to do.
