"Hello Adam, Sam. How are you both?" She smiled at the wave she received in greeting. She hadn't brought along any food into the chamber for fear of contaminants but she did know for a fact that there was some fresh food in the break room. "If either of you are hungry there's some fresh muffins in the break room," she informed them. Food was important. Having worked in the Love Chamber for many years herself she knew how easy it was to lose track of time.

"Don't worry nothing is wrong or anything like that, I'm simply here to check up on things. Make sure everything is clean, and working as should." If there were any problems or concerns for anything now would be the time to say so.

Did she read minds or something ? Adam thought completely unaware of his body language. Food? Addison always brought food with her. His mouth watered as if someone had run a bell and he was one of Pavlov’s dogs. Did she know how much her staff appreciated the goodies that always seemed to pop up around here? He gave her a toothy smile then walked over to his work station and sat down on his stool letting his boss get on with her business.

The chamber had been rather quite lately, what with Edward busy with his Hogwarts experiment and with Hazel gone. Even when he tried, Adam had a hard time keeping friends. If most didn’t push him away, they seemed to run away themselves. Adam thought a moment about Jori as he pushed a few items around on his work space. Without realizeing it, the Amortentia began to smell like hassenfeffer stew, baked bread, and a faint musk that Adam had always associated with his friend…

He shook his head and the smells cleared. He reached for a parchment he’d been working on. It contained messy writing complete with scribbles, blots, and a few words in German because Adam couldn’t figure out what the plant was called in English. Adam was not a man with neat handwriting. Even if he took the time to re-write this list, it probably wouldn’t be much better. “Tactually,” he said in response to her question about needing anything. He’d already brought it up at the department meeting, but hadn’t had the chance to get specific in his request. “I haben unt list of ingred-unts.”

He handed her the parchment which contained the following things legibly (and in English):
  • Mandrake oil
  •  Adder's Fork
  •  EStaghorn
  •  rumpent tail /Horn
  •  Venomous Tentacula leaves
  •  Pixeled Ginger Eyelash
  •  Nux Myristica
  •  Snargaluff tubers
  •  Lobalug venom
  • Live
     Lovage Plants
    Angel's Trumpet Plants
  • Chocolate
     Dark
     Milk
    White
     Cocoa beans
