Leo was amused. "You don’t like to cook or bake?" He asked his colleague his inborn curiosity shining through just a little.

Turning to Fina he said. "Sure we can make oatmeal raisins. Is raisins good against aches?" Meaning was that some old remedy against aches that had been passed down between generations.

Nodding he said worriedly "Yes I’ve heard about those complaints too. It’s not just achy muscles its greying hair and wrinkles too. Sophia gave me a scare the other day. I almost didn’t recognize her because of her grey hair, wrinkles and grey skin tone."

Why were the students complaining of muscle aches?

He laughed briefly. Fina was sweet, but not sweet enough to fool him into it. Cooking or helping.

"My expertise is potions, Fina," he said in good humour, "I know nothing about cooking. 'dislike' isn't the word. I enjoy eating more." So, it would be RUDE of them to FORCE him to help, especially if it was their condition to share the food.

Aches. Cosgrach grunted and made a face. Clearly, he had problems about it too.

"The children at potions class." His tone was almost whining. It was just so... it didn't make sense, see? It just didn't. "A class full of elderly, and they are barely 17 years old!" He looked at his colleagues in despair. "What is wrong with them?"
Raisins good against aches? Honestly, she had no idea. "I haven't heard anything against them as a remedy for aches, but I have heard the fiber in raisins is supposed to be good against constipation." That was an old person affliction, wasn't it?

Sophia? As in the Transfiguration Professor? SO wait, was this ... these complaints, not just affecting students? BUT they weren't affected. Cos had salt and pepper hair at the start of the term and it didn't look any grayer.... "Potions IS like cooking. But fine. Suit yourself." Fina shrugged; cause you know, if he didn't want to help, he didn't have to. She just figured he might actually enjoy it considering his specialty.

And he had seen the issues too? "So what do you propose we do about it? Go visit the Headmistress? Send her a Patronus?" Annie wasn't afflicted either, right? It was totally unrelated to her fainting at the pieing. And seeing as the redhead didn't teach anymore, perhaps she hadn't noticed the students the way they had...
