SPOILER!!: Babbling beverage

This was the longest twenty minutes ever....

Kat had prepped the other ingredients while she wanted. Still with about five of those minutes left. To keep herself busy she cleaned up around her work station. There was a little bit of a mess, when she measured out the leaves. When that was cleaned up the her timer went off.

First thing she did was remove all traces of the leaves. Making sure that no leaves were left. Then she took it back to a boil. The next thing she needed was the two billywig stings, along with the erumpent tongue.

SHE HAD TO STIR CONTINUOUSLY FOR TEN WHOLE MINUTES???

Oh Merlin her arm was going to fall off stirring for that long. She started stirring, and watched the time. The was one hard thing about standing over her potions, It was so hard for the Hufflepuff to stay still and in one place for long. Ten long minutes later, arm still intact, but a bit stronger, Kat could actually see a little lump of muscle now. She cleaned her thermometer so she could tell when her potion and cooled to room temperature.

Yet again it was more waiting.... this was a very timely potion wasn't it?
