More than a hobby. Potions was her passion.

They finally arrived at the lab, and Katy signed them into the book. "I solemnly swear not to injure your face. You [i]may[i] singe an eyebrow, but you won't have any lasting damage." Not that she agreed that the world couldn't survive without his face, but it would certainly be less pretty. Ahem. "Let's set up over here."
He'd spend their walk to the Potions Lab eating the sandwich and ruminating on the possibilities of this one time, super casual brewing partnership. By the time they made it to their final destination, the sandwich was gone and Levi had decided to stop thinking about whatever possibilities there could be lest he added additional pressures and expectations that were not needed.

Focusing on his own steps and chewing had been a good plan, ultimately. "I suppose I could spare an eyebrow if it's done in the name of science, glory, your International Potioneers Society membership and my Order of Merlin." This was all said in a perfectly casual tone, like these were not dreams but things that were given. He removed his messenger bag and began to retrieve his own potions kit. ""Do I get any details now or will I be kept in suspense?"
