"No, I just work hard, read a lot, and I really don't care much about damaging school property as long as I can get away with it." A modicum of talent played a good part, too, most likely but talent meant very little if it wasn't honed.
And it wasn't like he could get into the healing program without Potions marks that did not exceed the expectations. "But coming from you--" He did as told and carefully opened the first vial and measured it into a tablespoon. In a clockwise motion, Levi emptied it into the cauldron. "--that means a lot. Thank you. You want to stir it in before I add the rest?"
Levi didn't stutter at her question, but did take a few seconds to answer, as he measured the powdered kelp using the tablespoon. "Physiological reaction, has to do with the nervous system." He bit his lower lip. "Commonly known as 'blushing.'" "If you're going to be all modest, I'll get bored. I admire you, Kenning. Accept it. Do what you want with it." Now she was the one with blushing, although it didn't just tinge the tips of her ears. That peachy complexion went more tomato, and Katy tilted her head over the cauldron so her hair could spill over her shoulders.
Right. Focus. Potions that went ka-blooey. She stirred the potion, noting the color and thickness. "I'll add the sheep's bile, and it'll essentially turn to hardening concrete." Katy offered him just the tiniest of grins, although she knew that she was still terribly pink and embarrassing and maybe she should drink the explosive concrete?
"I recognized that was blushing. I'm... obviously quite proficient at physiological reactions myself. I just wasn't sure why." It took both hands to stir now, and then her stirring stick was stuck.
