Text Cut: The shouting lot

Oh wait, potions. He was going to make some kind of potion! Ha! he was so smart. Even at his age he was still smart. He put on the gloves and took out a bupopoby or whatever it was called out of the potions kit and squeeeezed the pus out in to a glass bowl. He then wiped his gloved hand on the table and proceeded to grab a bunch of asphodel roots before crushing them in the mortar without cleaning it first. When he was done he looked at his work so far and had the feeling he was forgotten something......

THE WATER! He had forgotten to add the water....wait...in where again?

Lucky for the Gryffindor, PRofessor Culloden had been too busy with others to pay much attention to him to notice he had been sleeping. When he shouted though--he succeeded pretty well to draw his attention and the man jumped, anger rising in himself.

WHAT even?

Turning to GLARE at the boy, he narrowed his eyes and waited for him to stop behaving in a silly way. Which he did. Good. He was getting to work.

...not. Correctly. He was working INcorrectly!

Taking DEEP, DEEP breaths, Cosgrach toooowered over the boy. If looks could kill...

"Aguamenti," he simply said, wand already directed in the glass bowl, and filled it with some water. He didn't say anything, though, and preferred to stare gravely. He also knew Kevin didn't clean his mortar and pestle, and doubted they had been clean really, but it wasn't Cosgrach problem unless it threatened others, so he let that be. Next time? Kevin was fixing his mistake on his own. Next time shouting--

He didn't LOOK at Culloden, per se. Just sort of... towards the front of the room.

--TOBY, of all the people, HAD TO shout too!

Cosgrach didn't jump this time, but he was even MORE angry! WHAT was going on here? Was this some kind of a joke--

"There's no need to shout, so please shut it," she said loudly, directing her comments towards the two idiots who couldn't speak at a normal volume.

--And people were answering them! Cosgrach couldn't breathe properly for a moment. He grabbed at his neck, leaned on his desk and tried to calm down. Calm, calm, he was caaaalm.

"I appreciate your good intentions," he said to the girl caaaalmly, "but that's not very friendly." As in other words, he got this. He wouldn't warn her, or anyone else, for another next time.

Now. To figure out WHAT to do about the shouting people.

Surely. He had to be.

Please.

Cosgrach was. On Toby's side, that is. He just... didn't understand why Toby had to shout in the first place. Surely the aging wasn't that terrible? Could it be? Could it... really be that...

Cosgrach sighed dramatically to himself. He didn't even know, but he was thinking of something to help the kids.

And now he was staring at her like an idiot. She rolled her eyes and glared at him and then turned back to the board. At least he was quiet now, so she could get going on her potion.

Cosgrach had either missed the glare or ignored it, because he didn't look at or say anything to the girl. He was just glad they dropped the matter. He knew how to help Toby, Kevin and all those that had to get up to see the blackboard anyway.

As proof of her failed efforts, nothing happened in the bag. Rather nothing that Tora wanted to happen happened as a great deal of crashing sounds came from where she had tried to summon her gloves to her. This caused her to give a great sigh before she gave up on magic and just rooted around for them blindly with her hand. Finally stumbling upon the gloves, she tugged them on and picked up the pus with a bit of distaste. Here goes nothing.[/color]

Crashing.

Something was crashing!

Trying not to look frantic, Cosgrach turned around to spot the culpable. WHO crashed something? That--this--AHA! It was HER! His eyes narrowed and in a few strides, he was beside her.

"Is everything alright, Miss?"

Y'know, calm, he was. Perfectly calm. He was simply asking if she needed help.

Efficient.

See, Cosgrach had changed his strategy. Instead of vanishing the contents of those who didn't clean their materials, he was just going to let the dirty stuff lead to a chaos and exploding potions, and students needing The Healer. He wasn't even going to warn them. It was their responsibility. So, this time, he didn't say anything too, but conjured water into her glass bowl for her, because she seemed to have forgotten that. Next time, though, she was completely on her own, cleaning included.

YUUUP.

And ewww squishing pus out. She got a bit squeamish while doing that, but was fine afterwards. She crushed the roots as best she could, though they were a bit uneven.

WHoops.

He put on his gloves and kept looking at his notes.. he had to squeeze the bubotuber's pus.. he looked in his bag to find it.. "oh there it is" he said while grabbing it and adding it to the water.

after that he pulled out his mortar and started to crush his asphodel roots.. "man these things are hard" he said while putting all the force he could muster into crushing them… alright so thats done…

Yep, yep, Cosgrach was calm. He wasn't picky. He wasn't obsessed about cleanliness. He was going to ignore. Ignore until the dirty pestle and mortar led to mistakes and disgusting potions and all that.

Yes. Ignoring. Not warning them to clean it. Not vanishing anything. He was going to enjoy their squirming later.

Once it was done he went back to his desk to make sure he had all the ingredients. “Are you kidding me.” He said frustrated putting up his hand. “Professor I forgot my potions kit.” How could he forget his favorite subject things.

...okay, this ageing REALLY was real. And disturbing. And spreading. And affecting people's lives.

......if Cosgrach locked himself up in his office and spoke to no one until they were all cured? What if he, too, was getting old rapidly?! What if he died tomorrow?!

MERLIN! He couldn't die tomorrow!

Taking deep breaths, he tried his best to look calm, because he was NOT calm. "Slippers, yes, right, okay." Okay. So long as Bart kept away from him in those slippers, he was fine with them. He vaguely remembered he had to answer some of his questions, but what those were, he didn't even remember.

...the Gryffindor tower was several floors up... Cosgrach grunted to himself. "Share it with a friend or use from my stock," he said grudgingly. He didn't like it. He didn't like it at all--how the school looked like a care-house now. Was he the only one that noticed stuff?

"Um...the one that means stuff are drying out or loosing their moisture content.'' Dehydrated, it was? Gah! All of a sudden he wondered what potion they were even talking about. Why were they even talking about hydration and dehydration?

"Then it should be 'dehydrated'." Err--it was a simple mistake of his tongue, right? Right?! Not that ageing stuff again?

Everything was good and clean, Soph. Yes. Okay. Good.

But she had JUST cleaned everything? Cosgrach watched her for a moment, questioning his memory in the process, then grinned and shook his head at her. She was great, did she know? Truly. The best protege anyone could ever have.

Next, squeeze bobotuber pus. Ugh. She hated the word. The stuff was gross. She leaned back a little as she squeezed the nasty pus into her glass bowl. Gross.

Cograch waited for her to add the water until the last minute, y'know, but when she didn't, he added it for her without saying anything. He was giving everyone one mistake chance, basically, but they were on their own with their next mistake.

Oh wait, maybe the Anti-Aging Charm wouldn't work because the person would already be old. "Or maybe a Stretching Charm even?" And now Sophie was literally just thinking out loud as she started to consider more... unrelated spells. Ooo, maybe there was a collagenous-related spell? Or a moisturizing Charm of some sort. Huh! Sophie had never been interested in such things, but she was now considering all of it.

Eh, no wonder Cosgrach didn't know those charms then. He hated beauty sector, thought it was silly, and it hurt him to see such young brains were infected with it too. Everyone here seemed to know more about it, and if it weren't for the... curious incidents, he would feel bad for them.

He sitll felt bad for them. Anyway.

Nodding at the girl politely and definitely appreciating her answer, he smiled and went on to address to the class...

She the crushed the asphodel with the mortar and put it to the side.

"They are mammals too," he said as an answer to the girl, "so they have mammae." Err--he doubted it was like a cow's, really, but it wasn't too different?

She too. Didn't clean her pestle and mortar. Her choice. He was done reminding them the cleanliness.

Who was it? Oh, that Slytherin boy. Cosgrach nodded at him to ask his question.

"We want a perfect one." Because the skin has to be perfect too. Yes.

For life and stuff. And while she waited for an answer she pulled out her wand. Might as well continue with the steps while she worked.

"Yes?" This turning-around-trying-to-spot-the-student made him dizzy, but he survived it this time too and made eye contact with the girl. He remembered her from the last class. She had rather different questions.

"Because glass doesn't react to bubotuber," he said in response, and nodded at her work. She worked as well as she could ask questions.

Impressive.

WHAT was he doing? Didn't he hear? Didn't he see?! Cosgrach was beside the young man in only a few seconds, and POOF everything in his cauldron went.

"Read the blackboard, please." Please. But Cosgrach beat him to it, in case he was one of those with poor eye-sight too.

"It says, add water to a glass bowl and squeeze the bubotuber in that." He EYED the boy. What had he done instead? Adding it to the cauldron!

"These are for future use." Understood? Clear? Done?

Merlin.

So, obviously, they had a problem.

Cosgrach looked thoughtful for a moment, then tapped his wand at the blackboard again as he muttered to himself. The blackboard expanded, covering nearly the whole wall now, and the letters got BIGGER too--almost their double length and width.

"IS THAT--" he pointed at the blackboard while shouting for everyone to hear, "CLEAR NOW?" He turned to look at it again. It seemed so. He was impressed with himself.

Hehe.

He tapped his wand at the blackboard again, and a message appeared in BIG letters:

'Write what you have to say on a paper if your hearing is failing.'

It stayed there for a full minute for everyone to see, then it erased himself, and the next step appeared beneath the first one:
