Mason kept her mouth shut as the rest answered. It wasn't as if she didn't have an idea of what it was, she knew those ingredients VERY well. They were the same ones that she had begged the Professor for the previous year (he had said no, obviously). She had convinced her dad to send her some of them, and Kitty had gotten the rest from the House Elves in the Kitchen.

She had a few vague memories left from when she and Valentine had brewed the thing in the bathroom, one of them being the gross smell and the tedious stirring. All in all, it had been a pretty successful potion, too bad that they had wasted it. . .

Shaking the thought from her head, Mason continued scribbling down the notes, even though she already knew all of these things. . . #notbragging.

SPOILER!!: Notes

Mason smiled with satisfaction down at her notes, neat and perfect. When she was sure that the ink was dry, she closed the notebook and put it aside, making way for all of the potioning that she was about to do.

Mason heaved her heavy bag onto the table and began rummaging through it, pulling out everything from vial to pewter and spreading them out on the space that was still available on the table. She threw the bag back onto the floor when everything important had been taken from it.

Ah, yes little peasant, thank you for the ingredients.

Oh, annddddddd, can't go to work with an icky cauldron. Mason reached into her robe-pocket and rummaged around, feeling for her wand. . . AH! She pulled the Yew from the pocket and removed a little piece of lint from it, her pockets were weeeiirrrddddd. Clearing her throat and pointing her wand at the awaiting cauldron, she cast, "Scourgify!" and since she had super powerful SECOND-YEAR powers, it made her precious all clean and squeaky. Insert satisfied-smirk here. And the wand will be staying OUT of the weird pocket until she had no further need for it.

Okay, so first things first after the cleaning: She was going to have to measure said ingredients PERFECTLY, cause her potion had to be perfect. Unlike last year *cough* poison *cough*. She need the wine and the prune juice first, so before she'd measure those, she was gonna start by pre-heating her cauldron by setting the flame to a little ickle size. Yes, things were going well so far, even if she hadn't even started yet. . .
