The blonde simply GRINNED in response and nudged the brunette before focusing again on the task at hand.

"Yeah! It'll be a surprise at the end and if it's horrible, at least we can be grossed out together." Shrug. Seemed like a legit plan to Ella and if she was going to vomit from how vile this might be, she wanted Soph right there with her. The friends who vomited together, stayed together...or something like that.

Peering into the cauldron, Ella nodded in agreement. "The pond slime made it really lumpy looking." GAG. The blonde wasn't a fan of drinking lumpy things. That's why when Sophie suggested lots of stirring, she nodded enthusiastically. "Yup, sounds like a plan!" You go, Sophie Campbell.

The nonverbal magic thing? Ella was jealous. She needed to practice some more so she could be as good as Soph was. "14 times clockwise...right." She really needed to be paying attention here, didn't she.

Scribble. Scribble. Scribble.

"Well, the owl feathers are used in Dragon Tonic, yeah?" Ella held one up so that they could both observe it as she spoke. "That means they must be pretty powerful...I mean dragons are huge creatures." So they'd need ingredients in their tonic that'd be strong. "Maybe we can add in 4? 2 from each of our ingredients piles." Beam. Good plan? YUP! The sixteen year old added them in and gave the potion another 5 stirs, this time going counterclockwise.

SPOILER!!: ”Journal”

Okay! "Now we can test this...this...Mind healing and boosting potion out!" And hopefully not die. Dying didn't seem appealing to Ella. She was too young and had too many Quidditch matches to play.

Scooping out some of the potion, the blonde gave her friend a nervous smile and said, "Bottoms up!"

...

YUCK!

That was somewhat true. Being grossed out together was better than being grossed out by yourself. "I suppose so." Sophie chuckled, making a face at their Potion. Eek. With the pond slime it did look a bit nasty... and it looked like something that would make them sick. But honestly, that wouldn't be the first disgusting-looking Potion Sophie would ever have to take. She could deal with that, she supposed. As long as it didn't kill her, heh.

Ohh, Ella's logic about Eagle Owl Feathers made sense. "Yeah, four sounds like a good number!" It would have to be anyway. Sophie watched her friend worked then just watched their mixture boiling as the blonde took notes. "Cool!" Then she unlit the fire that was burning underneath her cauldron. Maybe let the Potion sit for a few minutes before taking it, yes? It would be really hot right now anyway.

...

Lovely then! "Bottoms up!" Sophie said at the same time as her bestie, gulping their creation and making another face. Meeeeerliiinnnnn, that taste a bit odd. Maybe they should have added a bit more salt? Or not; that would've probably made it worse. Eh, it wasn't undrinkable. She had tried worse.

"Welp, let's just hope it doesn't kill us!"
