OH SWEET MERLIN!
Did anyone see that!? Lafay had not only flipped a cauldron, but she had flipped it right over a boy's head! With the potion in it and all! Destiny couldn't help it. Pulling her parchment closer to herself, she quickly drew two socks next to the one she had already drawn. Something like that deserves two socks.
But, back to the potion. Because the last thing she wanted was for the Professor to flip over
her cauldron. She didn't want to draw her own sock!
Pushing the parchment away from herself, she listened as Lafay spoke and eyed up the plant they were supposed to take leaves from. What was that thing called? It looked like that muggle thing..that muggle thing that she could not remember the name of! That wasn't important, though, and slipping her hands into her gloves, she made her way over to the plant.
"Don't worry, little buddy. Your leaves will grow back." Or..she hoped they did. She didn't want to be lying to a plant! Plucking three of the leaves, she held her arm out in front of her, not wanting her face anywhere near them, and sitting back at her station, she placed one of the leaves into her mortar.
Imagine what Professor Bentley would think about this. Crushing a plant! Pfft, Bentley.
Taking her pestle, she began
ferociously crushing the leaf
like it was Professor Bentley until she could spot the little drops of acid. With that step done, she carefully poured the acid into her cauldron, and picking up and cleaning her stirrer, she gave the potion three counterclockwise stirs.
Everything done, Destiny sat back and waited for another flipped cauldron. She had socks to draw.
