The first to collect on Kat's list of herbs for the Elise!tea was horehound. Well, she didn't know how that looked like but, thanks to her textbook, she knew now. Kat went closer to the plant, double checked her textbook just in case her eyes were deceiving her, and nodded. Yeah, that was definitely it. If the book was lying to her, then she'd have to complain. Textbook were, after all, supposed to be free of errors. But anyway, the Slytherin picked a leaf.... and four more. She got five of them in total because she didn't exactly know how much of each herb she needed, but five was enough for her.
Moving on, Kat went to search for jasmine. Now that was a herb she knew because her grandmother had them, and grandma sure loved tea. And the textbook was vivid about it so yeah, plus points. But back to the jasmine, she needed the flower right? Shame. She didn't want to hurt the flowers, and that was out of her Slytherheart.
This time, Kat took her wand out of her pocket. She would rather slice it off using her wand than picking it, apparently. "
Diffindo," Kat said and caught the flower with her free hand. And she did the same with another flower, so that she had two in total. Yes, that was the most she could do... and no, she didn't want to cut more.
So...... Peppermint was next.
