Fixing Searing Blaze

[Shatterhouse]

Searing Blaze on the surface looks very simple, but the community implementation of Searing Blaze is incorrect. It's supposed to target both a player and a creature controlled by that player. Currently we're targeting just a creature and then dealing damage to that creature's controller, like in Chandra's Outrage. Spirit of the Hearth cares about the difference.

The code below will prompt the user to target a player, and then prompt again to target a creature. When the spell resolves it'll do however much damage it's supposed to do to both targets. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to filter it so that we only target creatures controlled by the targeted player(haven't yet), but I can't seem to figure out the last important bit:

How do we restrict the spell's availability so that we can only cast it if there's a targetable player that controls a targetable creature?

Current code:
