*randomly tagged* | Norbert(a) | The Wandmaker (tm) Adam shrugged off Cypress’s cautions about the “portal stuff.” The man seemed a bit too uptight for Adam’s tastes. Life was short. Be adventurous. Try new things. Don’t worry about the consequences. That was how Adam looked at the world. After all, if one didn’t take chances, then new things would never be discovered!
Addison’s reaction was a bit more like what Adam had expected from Cypress. “Nein,” he said giddily in response to the department head’s question about other potions. He was barely containing his excitement over these results. He wasn’t really sure what good would come of this, but it sure beat working with love potions for a day or two. “I vas double checking ze resultz in ze speed potion. Ze…dingy from da portal canceled ze potion’s attributes in both speed potions.” He motioned to the other cauldrons sitting around. “I vas in ze process of brewing more potions to test ze dingy’s affects vhen Zupress-a valked in.”
Adam glanced over at a cauldron which was blurping happily. It was ready for the spine of lionfish. He picked up the ingredient and dumped it into the cauldron to his right. There was a burble as the contents reacted. Adam picked up a spoon and stirred the mixture a little. ”Dis one should be ready soon to try ze dingy on,” he informed them.
Maybe he should try the slime on some of the potions, he thought. No no, he chided himself. One step at a time. First the spore-thingies and then he could move onto the slime.
