Then he was amazed at himself for never matching the surnames, but of course, of course...

"That's tough," he said as he nodded a little and looked at Zeke with a mixture of sympathy and pity, "but I'm proud of ya, Zeke! I!m proud of ya for brewing two perfect potions!" He was also proud of himself, needless to say, because he was the teacher. "And I think I know the perfect solution: You're gonna brew Mrs. Lafay's Scintillation Solution that's gonna make you glow in your favourite colour and become animated'n'bright. Then, you're gonna put on her favourite music and dance to it. You're gonna be soooooo cute that her mother love will overcome her logic."

HMM? How did it sound?
Zeke's hope faded along with Culloden's confused expression. If he didn't know her then there was little hope of him being saved. Except, his hope wasn't lost, not lost at all... and actually, it seemed the Potions Professor now fully understood his predicament. He was screwed.

"It is, Sir," he nodded sincerely. He'd had his laugh, but the last week of break went soon slowly that he thought the train would never come to take him away. He couldn't help but beam though, cause even if Emily couldn't appreciate it for what it was, Culloden certainly could. "You are?" he questioned out of habit. he felt a warmth rise in him, and hope was restored - even if the man's pride wasn't exactly a solution, he DID have one, didn't he?

...

He looked incredibly hopeful, edge of his seat and all.

....

And then THAT idea happened. He wasn't about to repeat what the potion was called, big words took practice to get right... but, the idea itself, could either work, or fail... or well, MAYBE he'd just be pitied, and that would work too.
"Okay," he announced as his mind worked through this information, "I think I could make that work." What was the worst that could go wrong? He might pull a muscle? Get hexed? Who knew? ... The benefit of this, was that this time HE would be the one being embarrassed as opposed to her. Win-win!

"If I brew it here, could you check it over for me?" he asked, cause yeah, y'know ... best to be safe and not turn into a frog by accident.
