This time, Peeta lets the grin spread over his face when a pair of tongs pops into existence. "That is so amazing," he mutters as he takes the utensil. He's still smiling, more gently now, as he gets started on the hot dogs. They sizzle enticingly as he lays them on the grill and he feels his stomach grumble lightly, despite the fact that he didn't really feel hungry before.

He watches Orisa and Nilakshi interact with interest. While he isn't unfamiliar with snakes, he hasn't interacted with many. There were a couple that Daine healed, but they had more important things on their minds than him and his curiosity.

At Orisa's question, Peeta's expression turns thoughtful. "I think it has to do with personality? Daine told me about elephants the first time Nilakshi appeared - I'd never heard of an elephant before then." He pauses then, eyes going distant, and thinks back to Daine's words. "She said they're clever, gentle, loyal, and protective. The way she described them reminded me of myself, so maybe that's the connection: the shape is an animal that's most like you."

He glances between Orisa and Aziraphale with open curiosity. "I don't know snakes all that well; what makes the two of you alike?"
