"Of course it was hilarious, Zeke, pranks with potions are the best." He allowed himself to grin, because the kid thought it was funny as well. "Let's see," he said, and looked away for a moment with a serious expression, "Well, if this 'they' is a female, you can brew a beautification potion. There are some easy ones." Assuming the kid did want to brew it himself? "Or the Elixir to Induce Euphoria. There's also Invigoration Draught..." He paused, thinking of more. "And, I guess, if they have a chronic illness, you can brew their next bottle of potions." He paused for a moment, then excitedly asked "So you brewed both love potion and the antidote perfectly, huh?" That was his student!
There, it was out... OUT FOR EVERYONE TO KNOW... or well, for Professor Culloden to know, which was embarrassing enough, but he didn't feel SO bad when the man himself said pranks with potions were the best. Seriously? He wasn't going to get frowned at? AWESOME! "They really are," he agreed, with some serious nodding and a smile to boot. Mmmhhmmm. He was a fan.

He nodded some more, because Emily most definitely WAS a female, she was just a special kind of one. But no, nooooo... beautifying potions were not up her ally, he knew that much. "She doesn't care about looks, Sir." Nope. As for all the others mentioned, Euphoria, he couldn't see her being happy about being happy either. He didn't even know what the Invigoration Draught entailed, but the chronic illness stuff definitely didn't apply. "It's for... my mum," he added, "Bart's mum knows her," did HE know her too? "Scary MLE boss lady?" Did that ring a bell? Cause yeah, mending bridges with her was going to take something pretty amazing.

He was easily distracted from his dilemma when Culloden questioned his success. "Yep, both of them. My sister watched, and she helped make sure I counted everything out right." Cause counting things out right sometimes got him in a pickle. Additional stirs and ingredients could end badly.
