If he was going to gird up one of his capacities, it ought to be his logic and wit. After all, exhaustion made people sloppy and made their decisions haphazard, and Mo would rather avoid making stupid mistakes. So then... girded brain...

Mo wandered back to the potions cabinet as his potion continued to heat, working his way mentally through the options. What about... scarab beetle? Not only a key ingredient in the Wit-Sharpening potion, but also used in Skele-grow. And bones did girding too, so that seemed like some sort of logial-not-logical leap.

He brought a measure of the powdered scarab beetle back to his cauldron just in time to watch the potion turn green, at which point Mo added his beetle bits to the liquid.

"Professor?" Mo raised his hand. "Should we expect it to change color again once we add our special ingredient, or do you want us to turn down the heat?"

"It depends on the ingredient, Master Branxton, though that IS a very good question." She said

"Time's up. Your potions should be finished now, if you do not have them finished you can finish them for your homework, and send it it to me." She said and then added. "Those of you who finished, bottle and turn in your potion but keep a vial for your homework."

"Homework. One week from today. 20 points. Write to me what your new potion will do and use it... Let me know where and what happened." She smirked and said "If nothing happens other than what the potion is supposed to do, then tell me what you did wrong, and what you could have added to make it right," She clapped her hands twice "Dismissed."

ooc: No other potions posts will be accepted after this. You can just say your potion was finished and do your homework as normal.
