Still making BIG pleading eyes at Jessa, Derf kind-of-sort-of forgot to breathe and was only reminded of this necessity when she DID speak and really only started breathing properly when she was saying sorry. Although he wasn't sure what she was sorry for because she hadn't thrown up on anyone. Her smile did make him feel a little bit better though. Even if he could only shrug in response to her question because he did not have a clue.

"I'm s-s-sorry I ruined your drawing," he pouted. "Bet it was brilliant." Because everything Jessa did was pretty brilliant, you know?

Accepting the water from the professor with a faint smile, Derf quickly drank it all in one gulp and set the empty glass on his table. Attention back on Jessa once instructions were given, he watched as she filled her cauldron with water AND got them both all of their supplies. "Can...you do that for me too?" he asked, pointing to his own cauldron. "I'm no s-s-so good at that s-spell yet..." And he really did not want to make ANOTHER mess. Although at least he could use his robes to mop up the water.

But...he probably should scribble down the instructions on the board, right? Right. Thus, quill in hand, he began doing so...but not without commentary to Jessa, naturally.

"Oh we can share a shrivel fig," he noted as he wrote. The glitter was...confusing to him though. "What do you think glitter does-s-s?" he asked his best friend. "Thought glitter made you sparkle...what is glitter made from anyway?" His eyes continued to scan down the list. "What do you think happens if you have dried s-summer leaves-s-s instead of fall? Or winter!? Do you think we can only brew this-s-s potion in fall? Fall leaves-s-s and all?" He really WAS writing as he spoke...just unfiltered questions because Jessa always indulged his curiosity and her his. "Fall is-s-s an important season for loads-s-s of creatures you know." Down the list he went...scribbling away. "Think we need two s-s-scoops of the pearl dus-st too?" he asked Jessa again. Some people had used more of it than he had - he had actually used NONE so really...everyone had more gone from their vials than he had. "...is a chees-se cloth REALLY made from chees-se?"

Ingredients list finally written down on his parchment, Derf figured he could at least prep their shrivel fig since they got to share. Silver knife out, he caaaaaaaaaaaarefully cut it in half and plopped one part on Jessa's side of their workstation. Eyes back on the instructions, he really needed to have his cauldron filled half with water before he could do anything else....

Although he could TRY and cast Incendio...maybe. Maybe not.

"Jessa...can you do Incendio on my burner too...please?" he asked with BIG pleading eyes.

Oh wait! Derf quickly reached for the half a shrivel fig that he had given Jessa and cut that in half again - since the instructions had said to. Wait...was that right? Erm... Repeating the cut on his own - yay for shrivel fig slices? - he returned the half a shrivel fig to Jessa...in two pieces.

SPOILER!!: Potions notes

Ingredients
5 Juniper berries
Juniper! I have a friend with that name!
Half of a Shrivelfig (cut it in half and share it with you neighbor)
6 cherries
2 scoops of Silver colored glitter
wonder what glitter is made of....
5 dried fall leaves
what about spring and summer and winter?!
Can we only brew this in the fall?

Tincture of Demigusise
still not sure what a tincture is...
4 Moth wings
Pearl dust
two scoops? Two scoops.
Cheese cloth big enough to drape over your cauldron
is it made from REAL cheese? From happy cows?

Add in the cherries
