Professor Lafay.. ❄Suaviter in modo, fortiter in re❄| ⚕=equivalent exchange=⚕ | pinned ya!
Potions was one thing Beezus knows that she would like. Even if she have heard that the Potions Mistress is a complete terror to students. She doesn't care, as long as she can brew and associate herself with Potion Making then everything's gonna be fine. To start her Potioning, she went to the Potions Laboratory early one morning, eager to try something out.
Looking at the Recipe book, she chose the Magical Fireworks Potion as her starting experiment, "So, I need Water, Big handful of dried flakes of Salamander skin,One jalapeno pepper, a dash of sheep bile,three grains of salt, A tab or wick, and a Tissue paper. Seems easy enough." she muttered. She went to the Storage Room and got everything she needed, including a purple colored-tissue paper.
Without wasting anymore time, Beatrice quickly went to work. She got herself a cauldron and followed the instructions given. She first filled the cauldron with water, a little above half. Then, she found a burner so she could boil the water in the cauldron. When it came to a boil, she added the Dried Flakes of Salamander Skin which created a gentle prickling sound inside the cauldron. Leaving it at the moment, she then diced a Jalapeno pepper and added it to the Cauldron. Once again, referring to her book. She stirred the potion thirteen times, anti-clockwise. Stir. Stir. Stir. Stir. Stir. Stir. Stir. Stir. Stir. Stir. Stir. Stir. Stir. And then, the instructions said to add a dash of sheep bile which she did and when she did the potion turned oddly gray and somewhat turned into liquid concrete. Next, she added three grains of salt. Afterwards, was again to stir it four times. So she did. And it gave it a hard time since the potion was very hard. Clockwise.Stirrrrrrr. Stirrrrrrr. Stirrrrrrr. Stirrrrrrr. And now, it was all malleable. Beezus got a handful of it and started molding it into a circle which looked more like an oblong. Then, she placed the wick at one end of it. And lastly, Beezus wrapped it in the purple tissue she got !
When she was all finished, she hurriedly cleaned all the apparatus that she used. Disposed of all the unneeded ingredients and returned those which can still be used. After polishing the table she used, Beatrice approached the Professor, "Err. Professor Lafay.. Where do you think can I test this creation that I've made to see if it actually works ?" she asked reluctantly.
