First things first though. Those rolled flowers needed to be added to the cauldron, so in they went. "
Now to wait for those to dissolve." NO stirring yet. It really didn't take too long since the liquid had been boiling for quite some time now and was bubbling and brewing all over the place
piping hot!. Leaning over the cauldron a bit, Kurumi nodded when she saw the rich purple color it had turned. Good good. They were on track still.
Without warning or further explanation, Kurumi picked up her goggles and slipped them on her head before thrusting Selina's in her direction. With precise movements, Kurumi picked up one of the mushroom caps and dropped it into the cauldron.
*POOF*
Turquoise smoke suddenly errupted from the cauldron and billowed in the two girls' faces with a soft popping noise. Kurumi remained unphased by this and continued to drop the other four caps into the cauldron one after the other to soften them up and remove their exploding properties before dicing them.
*POOF* *POOF* *POOF* *POOF*
After three minutes had passed, Kurumi used a ladle and removed the mushrooms from the cauldron and set them on the chopping board where she immediately took a clean silver knife to them and diced them up quickly before returning them to the cauldron to dissolve.
Kurumi then passed the snake fangs to Selina to be crushed in the mortar and pestle - since the redhead was really good at such things - and again was not phased by the exploding puffs of smoke that had just bellowed in their faces. Although...the smoke DID cause the Gryffindor to explode into fits of laughter. "
HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE." Wasn't that cheese grater just the most RIDICULOUS looking thing ever?! Just LOOK at it! It was full of holes and used to grate cheese! "
HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE *snort* HEHEHEHEHEHE."
Holding the grate over the cauldron - and after Selina had added the crushed snake fangs - Kurumi began grate the wormwood over it, never lingering too long in one place but instead covering the entire sureface of the liquid as one would with parmesan cheese over pasta.
"
Ooooooookay HEHEHEEHE Seliiiiiiiiiiiiiiina HEHEHE Time for the Sneezeword *ACHOO* petals and blood to go in," she instructed as she bounced in her seat a bit. Probably should have put on masks too...TOO LATE NOW! HEHEHE.
Finally, once Selina had added the petals and blood, Kurumi added the chopped fwooper voice box.
"ZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORK!!"
A loud and earrenching voice erupted from the cauldron and echoed throughout the classroom causing Kurumi's ears to ring and for her to topple against Selina while her head began to spin and everything sort of turned BRIGHT yellow for a few moments. Bright yellow with pink polka dots to be exact. Once the colors had faded, Kurumi blinked a few times and then looked back at the cauldron, grabbing a silver spoon and cleaning it with a silent Scourgify. "I'll do the first 15 seconds and you the next?" Kurumi asked, already inserting the spoon into the liquid and beginning to stir the potion in a figure 8 pattern.
And they were done!
Silently, Selina thanked Kurumi for not drawing a lot of attention to her brief moment under the table after the mushroom almost exploded. It was not that she was afraid
okay maybe a little, it was more that she did not want to die by explosion, which was a natural reaction of sorts. So THAT was why she ducked and covered and perhaps she cried a little bit, but who was watching? Honestly, she hoped no one.
Moving on from her brief moment of panic, she helped Kurumi get the flowers all sorted out. Her friend then proceeded to drop them into the cauldron and waited for everything to dissolve the way it was supposed to in the directions. Once Kurumi seemed pleased by the results, because honestly Selina had no clue if things were progressing correctly, she nodded.
Then she went on to the next thing Kurumi threw at her... which she actually threw. The redhead fumbled to get her goggles on as fast as possible, but to no avail. The mushrooms were already exploding in her face when she threw the new one in. To the best of her ability she put on her goggles but they were lopsided and she no doubt looked daft. She felt just silly.
Kurumi was then throwing something ELSE at Selina. It was snake fangs and Selina nearly jumped back twenty feet. Kurumi should have NOT THROWN those at her. Merlin, if they touched her skin she was dead and Selina was rather a fan of life... just saying.
But she did as she was told and crushed them so they were all nice and dandy to be put in the cauldron. Selina started to add all of the powder of fangs into the cauldron when she noticed that Kurumi was laughing like a loon. Had she missed something?
Eyeing her friend oddly, she kept a bright face... sort of and moved on to add the petals soaked in blood to the mixture. Kurumi seemed to have everything else under control. Once it was all ready, Selina then proceeded to stir the brew in the figure eight position for fifteen seconds.
IT WAS DONE.
With a sigh, Selina said,
"Kurumi, what is WRONG with you?"
