She turned to the rest of the class and said "Put your gloves on, and put all but a spoonful of your unction in a jar, and turn it in. The last spoonful you may keep and use of anything you wish to. Homework." She said, "Use the unction of something, anything, and tell me why you chose to make that particular thing larger. Three inches, 10 points, due one week from right now."
She sat in her chair and said "Dismissed." Waiting for her unction to solidify, Kendall's attention had gone back to Professor Lafay as soon as she had heard the woman speak again. So someone, apparently one of her housemates, had actually had the courage to ask the professor if sheneeded help, and, surprisingly, the response hadn't been as biting as it could have been. How it should have been, considering Kendall was pretty well terrified of the woman even when she didn't look like she was halfway to turning into a zombie. She remembered the past few terms, at least, which really was why she was so confused by the mood swings now. Zombies didn't have mood swings, not that she was aware. But Professor Lafay isn't a zombie yet, so maybe whatever's turning her into one is making her act weird, she thought, turning back to her cauldron only to see that the contents had solidified.
Well, that's good, she thought, still internally cringing at how much it looked like blood. Dried blood, at that, because normal blood wouldn't be all thick and solid-ish, and she was supposed to actually use it on something. She couldn't think of a single thing she wanted to subject to having that spread onto. She still had to turn it in, though. She was enough of a Ravenclaw to want the points for having succeeded in creating it, even if it creeped her out. Pulling two jars out of her kit, a larger and a teeny one, she Scourgified both before pulling a spoon out and doing the same. Then, she proceeded in transferring the unction to the jars, starting with the single spoonful for the tiny one, then the rest got scooped into the larger before she switched her attention to writing out labels. Attaching those to the jars, she slid the tiny one back into her bag, then took the larger one up to the professor. "Thank you for the lesson," she said simply, setting her jar down amongst the others. "I hope you feel better soon."
That last part had slipped out before she could stop it, but she did mean it. She'd rather not have a professor turn into a zombie or die or anything. Either way, she had turned back to her workstation, writing down the homework, re-Scourgifying everything, and slipping the smaller things back into her bag before making sure the rest of the area was spotless too, and then she picked her things up and left. Time to figure out what to make bigger.
