Tessa prepared to add the hellebore's syrup, measuring it carefully before adding it to the cauldron. Now, it was on to the eyes. The eyes didn't phase her much- she had experienced injuries that were worse looking that these eyes.

However, these needed to be handled much more carefully. Blocking the eye into a corner- in case it tried to escape, she slowly cut a sliver down the back of the eye. Bringing it over to the cauldron she held onto it and carefully began to squish the liquid out. Suddenly, the eye slipped from her fingers- but thanks to her Quidditch reflexes, she was able to catch it before it hit the potion. She let out a sigh of relief and finished that eye, and began the second one, making sure she was holding it securely.

Just as she finished, the next step was revealed. Looking up, she quickly added it to her notes:

Text Cut: Notes

This step should be easy enough, right? She took out her wooden stirrer and was about to put it into the potion when she froze. Had she cleaned it? Best to make sure, and she quickly cast a cleaning charm on it before continuing. In the spoon went and she carefully counted to three as she turned. THat done, she turned down the heat, sitting back from the cauldron with a sigh. So far so good- right?

Looking up, she quickly added it to her notes: Text Cut: Notes • One bubotuber’s pus • 0,2 litre of seal milk • One hellebore’s syrup • Two puffer-fish eyes • One leech • One water-dwelling planaria • One middle-sized pomegranate’s juice • A bunch of asphodel • 6 sopophorus beans 1. To be prepared beforehand: Add some water to a glass bowl, wear your gloves and squeeze bubotuber’s pus into it. Put it away, get pestle and mortar and crush asphodel roots. Put that away for future use too. 2. Add 0,2 litre of seal milk to your cauldron. Turn the heater to high for a minute, then lower to medium. 3. Add hellebore syrup, make a small cut at the back of the puffer-fish eyes and squish them to the cauldron. Add ONLY their liquid and vanish the eyes themselves or dispose of them in the rubbish bin. 4. Stir 3 times counter clock wise with a wooden stirrer and lower the heater to minimum.
