Toby................ was being remarkably quiet, not really wanting to draw any attention to himself today for some reason. He'd gravitated towards the building group, because it seemed pretty hands on and like he could be kept busy. So there he was, by the porch-builders, having followed Culloden with everyone else, vial of potion in his hand.

But he had a problem.

"Uh, Professor," Tobias spoke up, dodging around people so he could reach the Potions Master up at the front of the group. When he was close enough, he lowered his voice so hopefully only Culloden could hear him. "I don't know if I can drink this potion. It has, uhh, animal in it, and I don't eat... them." Awks. "Could I... maybe try this activity without the potion? And then you could test it later to make sure it works?"

He looked hopefully up at the Professor, though if he was honest, he wasn't sure that this was going to work as a suggestion. He wasn't going to do very well at his OWLs or NEWTs if he couldn't test his own potions, was he?
