It wasn't clear either way which ones he was talking about.

Hufflepuffs could be so confusing sometimes. Maybe it was Lockhart who'd taken a Confusing Concoction...

"Aconite," she said, scribbling down the ingredient. "Aren't its leave poisonous? It'd just be just the flowers then..." She was quiet for a few minutes as she jotted down a few additional notes.

"Alright, how about fluxweed for the changing, boom berries for the restoring, and billywig sting slime for the curing?" she finally asked, glancing up from her note-taking.

She nodded when he asked about her sister being a Potions Mistress. However, Sierra had never really been tutored by her. Not unless you counted just being around the house and witnessing her brewing firsthand. "No, not really. I mean, I've watched her brew before, but she's never really tutored me. I've just picked up on a lot from being around her," she answered. In other words, Sierra would likely not be able to come up with any stroke of brilliance anytime soon. Not unless she happened to think of somethinhg all on her own.



The sound of Lafay's voice drew Sierra's attention away from Treyen, and she glanced up at her Head-of-House with a small smile.


Oooooh. Lookit! Lafay had said his name. Ah, that was brilliant!

But, yes, Sierra, back to you. And the potion.

"Oh, yes, the ingredients that would progress it even further," because who knew if by given them what they were not supposed to take, then they got all better? If such a thing was to work out, then there was no real way of knowing whether that could work, or whether this potion could work.

See? He'd been right all along. It was a simple bliss to work with people that knew things, so he wouldn't have the necessity of explaining almost everything. Not that it had happened before. But yeah.

Treyen nodded and smiled, "Yes, they are, that's correct," another nod. Just the flowers. And then she added something he had not think of. Boom berries. "I had not considered Boom Berries until now," he said, but suddenly realized why, "Oh, right, I considered mandrakes instead, and I don't know how the berries will react with it," two of those restoratives could be dangerous, but they could make one potion in case mandrakes became hard to find. "As for the rest, I agree," he didn't write that down, he'd already memorized that.

Mmm...no tutoring? "Well, you seem to know quite a lot...for a first year," and he was supposed to continue saying something else about her sister...but then he remembered Lafay saying her name. Greingoth. "Are you Alex's sister?" by any chance? Probably?

Okay. So. It was time to make the final list of ingredients, and to talk about what part they needed to treat first. Restoration should come first.
