 ♥ Touch Lass! | MOON OF MY LIFE | Lemon's Winner | Inside Kitty
.....Ack! So many instructions in one go was making Cat's brain go weird. It was a darn good thing the professor kept them on the board or she would have been quite possibly failing. She took a short moment to repeat them to herself carefully inside her own brain. Lower heat. Wait. Clean things. Get blood. Mix blood. Crush stuff. Got it, right? Sure.
She lowered the heat to medium, as told, because she totally remembered that part, yes. Then she glanced over at Mo and smiled at him because he was sharing his watch with her and that was sweet. Five minutes exactly. Right. Keeping mindful of the time, Cat set forth to cleaning what she needed to use next. Cleaning everything. Wasn't that even the first rule of Potions? CLEAN ALL THE THINGS. So that was what she did. Scourgify the cup! Scourgify the bowl! Scourgify the spoon! It was a good thing, Cat pondered while she moved up to the professor's desk to fetch a cup of blood, that she wasn't squeamish because they were certainly using a lot of blood today. Between that and the dragon heart, Cat wasn't sure she wanted to try this potion at all. Eugh. Carefully, she spooned the blood into her cup and took it back to her station, eyeing the watch before she added the acquired blood into the bowl with the salamander blood. Now... what was the next part? Stirring. Stirring.... she looked over the note... five times clockwise and five times the other direction. Five and five. Easy enough to remember.
She stirred carefully, counting in her mind and then smiling triumphantly at the little victory. Cat threw another quick glance at the time, glad to see there was some to spare. Good. Firstly cleaning the mortar and pestle that had probably been collecting dust all summer, she selected the griffin claw and started working on crushing it. With no magic. Well, they couldn't depend on magic for every single thing, right? She was sure there was a good lesson here. She crushed and crushed at the claw until... well... it wasn't entirely perfect, but it looked very nice all things considered. And there was still time, just a little, to spare! |
