OHAI WEST! A nod and a smile went to him when he sat next to her, but her attention went to Culloden when the man started to speak. The /real/ Culloden, not the one in that blackboard.

She wanted to question why people lifted things instead of just levitating them, but whatever. This wasn't History of Magic, technically.

Also, dragon heart. Brilliant.

First off! She scribbled down the ingredients on her notebook and then got those that she'd need, minus the dragon heart, for reasons. With Lafay, they all pretty much learned to clean all equipment, so that's what she did after writing down her notes. For Lafay. Then she added the 2 litres of water and two unicorn tail hairs, one at a time of course, as the instructions said.

See? She could follow instructions and respect authority, Vinteren.

Okay. A fire was started soon enough and then she supposed she ought to measure the heart. She wouldn't break it, so Marcus Branxton couldn't say anything about this. Also, it's part of the potion, so there's that. Lotus did have a smirk on her face as she measured 2 kg, her mind clearly elsewhere but the measurement was done right, so she returned to her seat and added some dragon heart into the mix. 2 kg of it, to be precise.

More notes added, too. Any possible troublemakers ignored.

And all she did was wait for the will-be-potion to boil before adding the pomegranate. She was suddenly hungry, was that weird? So many things she could be questioning right now, especially with this potion, but all she could ask was: Didn't she just had breakfast? Why was she suddenly hungry, then?

Interesting. Why were some people raising their voices? Her eyes turned to West for a moment and then back at Culloden and the board. If he had issues with having to teach so early, then he should change it, because Lottie could be hanging out at Airey's office right about now instead of hearing Culloden raise his voice a bit.

For nowww... she turned the heat to medium, took her bowl (cleaned it first, of course), a cup and that metal spoon (cleaned everything, too) and went straight to collect the blood. 1 cup of it. Got it. Once on her seat she emptied the contents of that cup into the bowl, and then the salamander's (mature one) blood as well. Re'em and salamander's blood were now in the bowl, Lotus mixed them even more when the stirring started. Five times clockwise, five times counter-clockwise. Done.

Griffin claw, however, was gonna be annoying, because NO MAGIC, remember? Who could forget? But she did her best and kept on crushing it while being reminded of Airey's planet activity last term. That brought a smile to her face and made this crushing activity so much better. Well, that was close to powder. It seemed perfect to her, anyway. She left the mortar and pestle on the table (yes, the powdered griffin claw still there), and eyed the time...

Five minutes would be up in... 10... 9...
