"
Doesn't have to be metals," Kurumi said as she shook her head, reading over the list of symbols. "
Some of these indicate ingredients...and not all of them are metal." Her eyes fell on one that, after flipping through her Latin dictionary, discovered that it meant horse poop. Ew. That was sort of gross. "
I wonder if there is a symbol that represents heating...or temperature...or something like that..." Kurumi's violet eyes continued to scan the parchment and her dictionary, falling on the D category when she heard Louisa ask something from her table. "
Jezz, you keep looking, I'll be right back."
This Gryffindor's curiosity had been tickled!

No offense, but Althea was making much more sense when she taught Charms.
Or maybe it was Louisa's mind refusing to accept Alchemy. Either way, she had a textbook open right in front of her... just for visual trickery, hehe.
"So.. uh.. what symbol... relates to distiller?" Re-wording Althea's question. But her gaze fell down on the book with weird symbols and Latin words.
Who knows...
Leaving her table and walking over to where Louisa was Kurumi took a look at the item and sort of just stared at it. Erm...right. THAT wasn't used for anything baking as far as she knew, so the Gryffindor just looked at it before her gaze went to Louisa.
"Um...there is a symbol here that is the alchemical symbol for distill..." Kurumi offered, pointing to her parchment where there was something that could only be described as an upside down check mark. Kurumi would try to say the Latin...but it would only come out sounding like gibberish. Pointing worked.
