"Okay, everyone. Please stir counter clock-wise for 7 times with your wooden stirrers and turn off the heater. Let it cool until no vapour is seen. It should take about five minutes to cool. If it takes more than six minutes, vanish the potion and start again." So that was their first check-point.

"Those who got it correct, get your fire crab shell but do not add it. Hold it with a metal spoon, lower it nicely into the potion just inside the surface—make sure it doesn’t splash water AT ALL—then start stirring 1 time clockwise, 1 time counter clockwise for 12 times in total. Each stir should take about ten seconds for it to spread thoroughly. Once done with stirring, get it out and put it away on some tissues for it not to get the half-done potion on your table." Not that it would hurt at this point, but he didn't want to clean sticky shells off the desks afterwards either.


Ian listened to the professor's new instructions, ready to move on. Having already cleaned off the stick, he re-inserted it into the cauldron and stirred 7 times counterclockwise. He removed the cauldron from the heat and allowed it to cool. He crossed his fingers, hoping that he hadn't made a mistake. He looked around to see what the other students were doing. He was especially excited to see what the Gryffie boy was doing. He turned around and looked at him. How's it going for you?

He walked over to some of the other huffies and asked about their cauldrons.
