Oh? Oooooooooooooooh.

Paige couldn't help but breath a sigh of relief when the truth was revealed. Controling the effects of the brew. THAT wasn't bad at all and now Paige could focus on preparing the potion without living in quiet terror of testing it with Maggie sitting right next to her and the consequences of that. Babbling nonsense - that was safe and may even be, dare she say it, a fun experience to share with the Slytherin. Or perhaps she was once again skipping down the yellow brick road of optimism.

Probably.

Before gathering her ingredients, the seventh year copied down what was on the board and added a few additional notes. Once satisfied, she headed to the supply cupboard and took out what she needed, returning to her station and carefully laiding everything out in the order of its use - double checking the recipe to make sure she was recalling things correctly.

Wand out, Paige cast a silent Scourgify on her cauldron after setting it on her burner - one of the few spells she COULD perform silently - and then stood to peer inside to administer an Aguamenti to fill it with the appropriate amount of water. Eyeing the line carved on the inside indicating 500 ml, the Hufflepuff cleared her thoat before uttering the incantation. "Aguamenti."

To her delight, her wand DID produce water...only the pressure in which she had done so was NOT the desired result. Conjuration was difficult, okay? Even if this particular spell was within her wheelhouse of charmswork as well.

Solid jet of water shooting forth, Paige was nearly knocked off her stool and cauldron nearly off her burner - although she managed to grip by the rim before it did that, which really only made matters worse as the water struck the bottom of the cauldron with enough momemtum to shoot right back in her face.........................
