Watching as the next step appeared, Dylan read it aloud to himself under his breath. Oh, okay. Nothing too difficult, all they had to do was wait for the water to boil and add the pomegranate. He stood there, watching his cauldron and waiting to see some bubbles. He drummed his fingers on the table as he waited. It took a while, but when it finally did start boiling, he added the pomegranate to the cauldron, just as the professor was telling the next step. Ah, good timing.

Listening to the professor's instructions, the badger lowered the heat to medium. Luckily, he had a watch on so he didn't have to go bug someone for theirs. He glanced at his watch and while he waited, he quickly jotted down the rest of the instructions into his notebook, then mixed the re'em and salamander blood in his bowl, making sure to stir clockwise five times then counterclockwise five times. He then crushed the griffin claw. Looking back at his watch, he saw that the five minutes were just about up. He was making pretty good time today. And now that he had been up and moving about doing things, he was a bit more awake than he had been when he walked in. He glanced back up as the professor told what to do next. After writing that down, he added the blood mixture and then the crushed griffin claw right away. He stirred it all in a bit and then looked up, awaiting further instructions.
