After a minute she shrugged and took to just watching Tenacius. Not what he was doing, just him. Such great hair. Haddie nodded in agreement. And such a great face. Yep. And such great eyes. "Dreamy eyes," she agreed.

It took her longer than a minute to realize that had been out loud and when she did her eyes grew so wide it was a miracle they stayed in her sockets at all. "What? I didn't say anything." Nailed it. Maybe. Did he buy that?

Haddie pulled her hands away from the mortar so fast it spun and wobbled and almost tipped over completely. "Have you seen Kira?" Distract him before he can figure out that maybe she did say something, that was the plan.

Too fast. She was moving too fast and the room didn't seem to like that because now it was swaying and spinning a lot more than it had been. Haddie was swaying with it. Isn't it great!!?? NO! And you're horrible! And I want a new brain! Awwww...

"Kira..." The poor Californian closed her eyes in an attempt to steady herself. And then giggled. When she finally opened them again, she nearly tumbled out of her chair. "She's... she's my wand...see?" Haddie pulled out her wand once she was sure she wasn't falling, or about to fall, and showed it to the great haired lion. "Heh." Great haired lion. The wand was jet black with a silver inlaid design of tiny eagles that spiraled up from the base and became silver and gold inlaid streaks around the middle that spiraled up toward the tip. "She got pretty for Christmas." That made sense right? "Present," she added. There now it made sense.

Was he sufficiently distracted that he won't notice she said... that thing she said? Haddie thought about it for a moment and then nodded. Yeah, he's totally distracted.
See this is what adds to the pressure, its not just to get the potion right because hello grades, but the fact that the longer Haddie isnt taking the antidote the worse her delirium gets. Which swings the entire convo spectrum between soar like an eagle and wrecking ball.

But hey, this is the first time a girl actually calls him dreamy eyes. Even if she's not herself. He's taking it.

"Who's Kira?" he asked. Is Haddie making like Supergirl's bossy boss? Oi this is getting bad....

.... And she named her wand. Should he name his wand? Don’t answer that. Dirty jokes are against SS rules.

"Yeah that is a very pretty wand. Very embellished." woohoo big word ftw. "She got pretty for Christmas? So like... Is that new wood casing for your core then or?..."

And 3, 2, 1.... 2 minutes is up! He turned the flame off and peeked over his steamy cauldron. Should they ladle some out now?
