The fox appears out of nowhere, sitting next to Alexander's arm for a moment or two until he starts nuzzling Alex a bit. Vincent walks in, not too much later, and sits down somewhat away from Alex with a book to read. It's in Japanese since the type of book is only in that language due to the subject content. It is about kitsune which are Japanese....those who are kitsune are Japanese/descended from someone(s) Japanese.

Alex noticed the fox and smiled slightly, " hhello..." he said to him as he rubbed his head slightly before he finished his letter and whistled for an owl , his own owl actual, a long pure blackk owl with its long features. Alex told where it should go and watched it fly away before he looked at the fox, " go to Vincent okay...here's a treat...." he said as he took out a small fox treat from his robe's pocket and gave it to him.

The fox just leans into the touch a bit. He sniffs at the offered treat before doing the fox's equivalent of inhaling it. Then he goes to Vincent and tries to tug him close to Alexander. Vincent just pulls himself free. "You want to be around him....be around him. I'm not going to stop you." He's not necessarily mad at Alexander....he's just going with the have no contact/as little contact as possible strategy.

Alex didn't notic what was happening at table Vincent was at but then he saw his potions teacher, Professor Clear...h walked in and walked up to Vinent, grabbing him by the shoulder and made sure he didn't drop anything and then went and dragged Alexander out and back to the potion lab where the two were thrown in, " one of you sent that ugly fox thing in here and made it spill all my potions...you two clean it up!! " he annouced before he left. Alex sighed softly before falling to a nearby chair and stared at the ceiling.

Vincent just looks at the mess, then at his fox and back again. "Love being blamed for things you didn't do?" He's directing that one at the fox that followed them. It makes a soft growling noise. "He knows better than to do this...but at least I know one professor I dislike now." He just sits on a table. "I wonder if he's watching the door or anything..." Of course he could shift into a fox and get out right now probably.

Alex looked at the other, " No he isn't...but he placed a curse on the door frame...you walk through it...poisoned..." Alex knew this for a fact. He stared at the other for a few minutes before standing up, taking his wand out, "this should take a few minutes..." he said then began to swirl his wand, repeating Reparo over and over, this fixed the jars and placed themm back on the shelf again, he just needed to clean up the poition.

"And I know magic to get rid of that. The strength of the poison determines the strength of the magic needed." And considering Vincent himself would be poisoned...he'd be able to tell when the spell equals the poison. He just stares back at Alexander before making a weird face at him. "You should drink the potions....see what happens." The fox just growls at him. "I kid. I kid...I wouldn't let you drink those...even if they were labeled and all."

Alex narrowed his eyes slightly at the other and chuckled at the growling sound. Soon the bottles were repared and now all we had to do was clean up the mess. Alex looked at the other for a moment before pointing his wand at the giant puddle, " It may get a bit hot in here..."...then turned to the puddle, " Heatrus!" he said outloud as a ray of heat shoot from his wand and went to the floor, causing the potions to evapourate...after a few minutes he was done...but ruined the wood flooring a bit, " I think we're almost done..." he said to him.

"What? I do. Sometimes potions aren't quick enough to counteract poisons. And I had a knack for that spell for some reason." Vincent shrugs a bit. There are things he has a knack for...some he has been trained in...others that he knows nothing about. "Hope none of those have weird effects...since we're now breathing it in instead." Fun times if they do. The fox whines a bit before disappearing into Vincent's shirt.

Alex looked at the other, " They only affect if in contact with stomach acid...." he tells the other with a small smile as he places his wand away than lays down on the long table, " that is some fox you have..." he tells the other with a smile.

The fox just doesn't want to smell the potions. "Are you sure? Has there been extensive studies or anything done on inhaling this many fumes? Concentration effects things." The fox pops out its head from the collar of Vincent's shirt. "I still think it's bullshit. You didn't do this." He scratches the top of the fox's head. He just sits down on a table, chilling out there.

"yes there has been studies....four actually...first in 1523....then in 1599...and again in 1745 and finialy in 1990...the last one was conducted as results of wizards in the muggle world wars...and the least harm they can do is causing magnetic levitation..." Alex explained with a smile, " Well I don't believe it either..." he said to the other.

"And how reliable are these studies? I really doubt they were conducted in a laboratory setting...and I don't think I like the sound of that.." The fox gets out of his shirt and jumps on Alex, curling up on him. "Good because I know he didn't do it." Foxes aren't good at lying. "So I don't see why he's blaming him."

"Hun...it's Hogwarts...this ain't no muggle school..." Alex said to the other with a small smile before the fox jumped on him, he smiled before continuing talking, " Well Foxes aren't the usual wizard pet you know..." he said to the other.

"Yeah, but for it to be valid, it needs to be in a laboratory setting. Otherwise the test is contaminated and is useless for the purposes of the study." Why does Vincent know this? Why does it matter? Why is he even bothering to say it? No one knows. "So? That's not a reason to go and say he did it. Go blame a cat instead or something. A cat could've done it. Actually anything really if someone was bored enough..." A frog could be turned into a cat/fox/whatever.

Alex stared at the other, "You seriously don't get the Minstry of Magic..." Alex said to him with a small smile on his face, Alex shurgged at the other on what he said next, "True...Tranfiguration is a popular subject here...but it takes years for the students to become an Animagus..."
