He almost opened his mouth to comment but he'd seen what talking back earned the others.
"I'm sorry professor I had paused to see if my friend needed help," he answered her as he took hold of his bicorn horn once more where he had laid it down just moments before. Sighing as the woman moved onto the others, Simon proceeded to crush it like he was supposed to before putting some on the spoon and walking calmly up to Professor Lafay. The boy having worked out his frustrations with the mortar and pestle.
"May I have a phoenix tear, Professor?" he asked.
She eyed the boy... She hated when they thought they could pull something over on her. She didn't know what this boy had in mind... but she was always suspicious. "Here you are, Bennet." She said and gave him the tear.

He looked down and saw what she was talking about. Ew.
"Perfessah," Willie spoke, scratching the back of his head, his other smacking the younger boy on the back of the head for doing what he did. "Ya know, if ya wanna ge' rid of ya bug problem, you shuld call them exte--exta--extawhatchamacallthem. I tell ya they kill of yer problem in a jiff, ma'am. Unless, ye'd want anuther approach, which I'm very glad ter offer." He told her, slowly lifting his foot and then CRASHING it towards one of the leeches that was the closest to him. "Like tha', eh? I betcha, they'll be gone and dead befah you know it, ma'am."
ooc: gunna go to bed now! D: See you guys tomorrow! <3
"CROCKER!! Get back to your seat!" She said furiously. "You are going to clean that on your hands and knees!" Wasting ingredients that way! Just stepping on it! Ruining it's value! Merlin! Why?!?!

When it was all nice and crushed, she put in on a spoon and approaching the professor very timidly. She was still feeling bad about the leech.
"Professor, may I please have a phoenix tear?" she asked fidgeting her feet a little wondering if she should dare ask the next one. "What are you going to do with the po-, um, leech remains?" That wasn't too obvious, was it?
Hearing that last remark about this potion potentially killing the drinker made Kurumi want to faint. Did this lady take pleasure in freaking the living daylights out of all of them?!
"He'll clean them after class... I can't use... tainted leech... goo." She said and gave her a phoenix tear.

He was either going to waste one more tear for such a stupid potion, or he would simply leave. Although staying would be better for his well-being, he just didn't want to waste phoenix tear on his behalf. It wasn't hard to guess the correct choice here. His heart started to beat faster with the decision he made: he'd leave, as he'd agreed to do before. Cleaning his working area, he returned the unused stuff and "Evanesco!"ed his half-potion. Then, packing his stuff, he simply and calmly said "I don't want to waste that tear, then," to the professor and walked through the open-door. The consequences he didn't want to think about, but he felt quite nice, actually, although his knees were shaky a little with the fear of Lafay.
As he got out of the door, it dawned on him that with this rather rebellious action he could get a detention. Oh well. There were more important things than detention, and if he got lucky, he could always study the potion from books.
She watched the Slytherin leave. A Slytherin. Great. "Very well." Children were crazy... they would use leech juice, which meant killing an innocent leech, but using the tear of a phoenix, which didn't hurt it in the extraction of it is bad... o. k. Moving on.
"Alright. After you add the daisy root. You will take the sprigs of Fluxweed." She put on her gloves and her goggles and stirred the mixture with the sprigs both counter and clockwise 3 times. "After putting on your gloves and goggles. Stir the mixture with the sprigs one going counter and the other going clockwise 3 times. You will notice the sprigs are both disintegrating into the potion... Then take the peppermint toads, and chocolate frog and put them in the mixture, using the liquorish wand to stir it." She said demonstrating. "And... the liquorish wand will melt inside. Lower the flame." She said and sent a bottle at each table. "Today I want to see you funnel your potion in a bottle and cork it. You should have a funnel in your potions kit. MAKE SURE IT IS CLEAN!" She said.
