So they'd be brewing this all on their own? GULP! That was kind of scary. Mostly because if one thing went wrong it could be disastrous and you didn't have Professor Lafay demonstrating before you went ahead with each step. That meant you had to be particularly careful and pay particular attention to your notes, yeah? ...Yeah.

The blonde jotted down the list of ingredients and the instructions on her parchment as neatly as she could and then went to gather her ingredients, thinking all the while about what she might add to her potion. Hmm...
SPOILER!!: Ingredients

Water to fill the cauldron
50 Dragonfly thoraxes (40 toasted/10 unheated)
One set of Fairy wings (2)
3 Flying Seahorses
12 Doxy eggs (Divided in 4 measures of 3)


SPOILER!!: Instructions

Add the set of fairy wings
Heat until the potion turns turquoise.
Add one measure of doxy eggs. (That's 3)
Heat until the potion turns pink.
Add 20 of the toasted dragonfly thoraxes or until the potion turns red (sometimes it takes only 18 or 19, but never more than 20)
Heat until the potion turns blue.
Add 20 of the toasted dragonfly thoraxes until the potion turns silver (sometimes it takes only 18 or 19, but never more than 20)
Heat the potion until it turns red again.
Add three measures of doxy eggs. (That's the remaining 9)
Add the 10 not-toaster dragonfly thoraxes.
Heat the potion until it turns blue again.
Add three flying seahorses.
Heat until the potion turns green.

After she had brought all of the listed ingredients back to her work space and organized them, the blonde went to get her own secret added ingredient. Something that would be beneficial to her when taking this potion. After some thought, she smiled a little to herself and grabbed what she needed. Yup, this was going to be perfect. ...hopefully.

After setting the ingredient of her choice down with the rest, she quickly scribbled it down on her ingredient list.

SPOILER!!: Ingredients

Water to fill the cauldron
50 Dragonfly thoraxes (40 toasted/10 unheated)
One set of Fairy wings (2)
3 Flying Seahorses
12 Doxy eggs (Divided in 4 measures of 3)
+Salamander Blood (for added strength)


Ella had always been fast but she wasn't exactly the strongest kid at Hogwarts. She could do with some added strength and so the ingredient she chose was one known to help with strengthening potions.
