"So now that we're familiar with some of the uses of fire seeds, I want to share something with you." She braced herself... the memories from last term came back to her, what a nightmare. "Some of you will remember the fire that assaulted my research shed last term... well new information has come to light, and it was the result of fire seeds...." and a particularly snoopy baby elf.
"Now as a result of this, we only now have this one Fire Seed Bush, now I have taken the liberty of replenishing our fire seed stores, so today, you guessed it, we'll be planting fire seed plants!"
Cue excitement, yes?
"Now if you'll follow me a little further for more instructions."
Seren motioned with her arm for the students to follow her deeper still into the dark, cold greenhouse.
Stopping at the very back in front of row of stools for the students to sit on, Seren ignited a few torches that were struck in the dirt. There, a bit more light. "Now does anyone have any questions before we get started?" she asked, moving her blackboard into view.
Had she been paying attention to everyone else's answers? Nope. They'd all been talking at once, it'd seemed, so it'd been kind of hard to tell one answer from the other. She guessed she could just catch up on anything she missed as the lesson went on, though.
Sierra kept up with the class, following in line with the sea of students who were making their way further into the greenhouse. Questions? Nope. Not her. She did hear something, from Hollingberry nonetheless, that she thought she at least knew a little about.

Like...if someone misaimed...could they accidentally kill the poor plant?
She raised her hand.
"Doesn't the fire seed bush have to be on fire in order to live?" Sierra asked Bentley, responding to Hollingberry but at the same time asking a question of her own. She'd known of the fire seeds being used in a potion before, and that's how she'd managed to pick up the information.
"I think the plant would die if all the flames went out, so I guess it's important we don't harvest all the fire seeds at once. I think that's why we only use the freezing charm on the seeds themselves--because freezing the whole plant might kill it." Source: Harry Potter Wiki (and my character's brain). LOL
