It begaan to swell and she placed it into her cauldron. She opened the jello packet. It was strawberry not bad. she added it to the horn powder and placed it in the cauldron and it melted down completly. She placed in the tail and began to crush the sopophorous been in the clean mortar and pestle. After the bean was crushed to powder she added to the potion. She squeezed marshmallow on top and let it simmer.
She turned to her paper and joted down the last few steps Quote:

Alice picked up the lizard tail and dropped it into her potion, watching it shrivel which she had to admit was kind of cool. Then she took her sopophorous beans and began crushing them with her pestle. Once she was done she sprinkled them into the potion the same way Professor Lafay had before tossing the marshmallows on top.
Alice leaned over the potion slightly to see inside...she had to admit the marshmallows were giving it a rather nice sent, although she still wasn't sure how she felt about the blueberry Jello. Quote:

The cheese was warm now, so Lara did as Professor Lafay said; she tossed the half cup of Bran cereal in the cauldron with the two spoons of salt. She wanted to taste salt because usually she can’t stand it but she was at class not at home, so she forgot it. Then she folded the ingredients with the wooden spoon which was laying on the table.
Lara took the silver knife as she was told, she loves using shiny things! She watched Professor Lafay very carefully , and then she copied it and chopped her asphodel leaf in small pieces. After that she mixed those small wet pieces with the dragon marrow. Wow! It really did swell , Lara loved watching the potion developing! So she put the mixture right into the cauldron, waiting for the next step.
Well this step seemed to be a little bit hard! Anyway Lara as usual watched the Professor carefully , she was glad she didn’t have to turn the horn to powder herself. Then she opened the packet of Jell-o which she didn’t really like it ,but she needn’t to! Now mixing the powder then adding it, Lara didn’t have any problems , the powder melted right away.
Lara took the tail and dropped it as she was told . Then she started to crush the beans, it was quiet fun! Crushing things!! Oh and sprinkling is awesome too! Lara thought to herself as she sprinkled the powder in her cauldron.
Well squeezing was less fun ,but it was good, now the Marshmellow is squeezed, all Lara has to do is waiting about 20 minutes till the potion is ready? Meanwhile Lara was wondering what will they do with the potion , she wanted to ask Professor Lafay but she seemed to be a little bit busy with some students. Quote:

Beginning to crush the sopophorus bean she noticed that wouldn be so easy.Again and again she tried it.
Actually it took her some time to figure out how to crush them properly.
Okay what now?...
Oh yes put the poweder into the potion.
Takin a marshmallow next she smiled. Fee looooved marschmallows.
After she squeezed it on top of the potion she observed her potion while it was simmering. They were doing a very good and Hecate nodded to each one of them. Quote:

They were the She-Snakes, they did everything the same. Well, not exactly the same, but so close it was scary. Nudging both Marie and Evelyn, Destiny inclined her head towards her cauldron and winked one eye. That was spy talk and she told them to keep an eye on the cauldron so it didn't explode.
She didn't know how long it would take to collect the aprons. And yes, Destiny did not pay attention to the other students Lafay called up to the class. If she did, she probably wouldn't have skipped towards the front.
Stopping right next to the Professor, she held her hands out getting ready to take the aprons. She refrained from saying 'Three please.'
Destiny was sure Lafay knew the deal. Quote:

Deeming her potion ready, she sat up on her stool eying the swirling recesses as she lowered the newt tail. Eye of newt and wing of bat... Grinning stupidly as she thought about that old Shakespearian play, she moved on before she added things she wasn't supposed to.
Counting out two beans, she dropped them into her clean mortar and pestle she made quick work of crushing them evenly and into a fine powder. She was mighty tempted to try out that spell but naaaah....better not try out the spell for the first time. It would be just her luck if the force of the spell knocked her back, toppling cauldrons in her wake.
No, no that wouldn't do. Now that she'd fully attacked each bean to the point where there wasn't any clumps whatsoever, she tipped the bowl over the cauldron and sprinkled the powder, pretending she she was in the charms kitchen and this was a simple step of drizzling confectioner's sugar over some desert or other. "If only I had a chef's hat..." Grinning she continued.
It was a mental similarity that didn't go away, especially since the next step involved the squeezing of the liquid marshmallow. Five squeezes of the plastic bag later, the top of her potion was cake looking with the liquid marshmallow neatly on the top. Setting her potion timer for twenty minutes, she made herself busy jotting down her process and cleaning up a bit.
That is until something caught her attention....
Glancing up from her journal updating, Ivory paused for a second at the sound of the Professor's voice. To the front of the class?
Well alright. With a last cautionary glance at the progress of her potion, Ivory scooted off her stool and shuffled to the front of the class. Assuming this had something to do with the fact that her potion had progressed so neatly, what else could it possibly be?
She even smiled as she moved to stand at the Professor's other side sure some sort of praise was in order. Right??? Right?? Quote:

Whaaat!?
Why was his name being called for? Because he didn't like cooking? Well, at least he was not the only one but was the first to be called out.
Was she going to give them aprons? If she was, then he'll complain. Cooking, he didn't like it. "And what about the food, Professor?" he asked, as he moved to the front and pointed back at his cauldron. It'd get ruined if they didn't get to finish it, no? And he was truly looking forward to the grape-flavored gelatin dessert. Quote:

Deciding it was probably best to not waste her already used ingredients, she followed the dragon lady's instructions and dropped her tail into the cauldron and tried not to look as it twisted and began to shrivel up. She crushed her beans and put the powder in before adding the marshmallow cream on top. Her hands were shaking so much that she thought she was going to send cream everywhere.
She then returned to her notes to add the final steps.
With her potion simmering on her burner, Kurumi looked around the room and wish that some other teacher would come in and somehow make class magically stop. Looking at the ground and fidgeting with her fingers, Kurumi made her way to the front of the room towards....DRAGON LADY. ヽ(lll゚Д゚)ノ【OH MY MERLIN!!】
"Y-y-y-yes professor?" she asked too afraid to look the woman in the eyes.
What was going to happen now? "Miss Shepard, Miss Erised, Master Lockhart and Miss Hollingberry?" She said with no Humor in her voice, "thank you for volunteering to have a bone removed. Please pick one." She said crossing her arms. She wasn't in the mood to be toyed with and was showing it.
