She checked the supplies on the table in front of her. Thank goodness for labels! she thought. Sure cayenne pepper is dark orange, garlic is easily recognizable, lacewing flies - obvious. It would take her a while to memorize the looks of the other plants though. To her they really all looked quite similar. She was pretty sure her set of supplies looked identical to everyone else's so she was satisfied that she was prepared.



The... chaudensis charm? She looked around her to see what that even meant. Hopefully there would be someone nearby willing to help her through this lesson. She looked around desperately for help. Some others seemed to be puzzled too, so they clearly weren't the ones to ask. Oh! There's Cora! She walked over to her and felt the warmth from her pot already. She must know how to do this.

"Hey Cora, could you show me how to do that chaudensis charm?


Cora quickly added some water to her pot with Aguamenti. No big deal. With a big smile, she saw Eliza come up to her.

"Hi Eliza! Sure, I can help you." Cora wasn't used to being ABLE to help, but definitely liked to help others, especially her friends, and her smile widened at being able to help. "So you say it like this. Chaw-den-sis." Cora cheerfully and carefully spoke. She wanted to make sure Eliza got it. Miming the wand gesture, Cora explained. "And you add a wand movement tracing the inside of the pot in a smooth circle." Cora demonstrated, brushing her brown curls out of her face. "Like this." Cora didn't think she needed to show the Aguamenti part but she would help if asked.

She glanced across the room at Ethan, and saw he didn't look like he was in the greatest mood. Frowning, Cora stayed to watch if Eliza could get this right. She was sure she could, but just in case.

Ethan wasn't too far away, so Cora waited for eye contact before speaking, and said, "Hey Ethan! Why so blue?" She wondered if he just wanted to be alone or something, but she hoped she could help cheer him up.
