Drip drip drip drip drip.

Better safe than sorry, would say... absolutely no one he was particularly close to but a philosophy he was absolutely willing adopt at all times when it came to brewing. "What?" He sounded distinctly distracted, Nicholas' words taking some time to fully register. Then he barked out a startled laugh, his wand shaking as the rest of his body did, losing focus and causing the water sprouting from his wand to become a stream. It sprayed out of the cup, spilled into the table. "Was that purposely done or was it entirely an accident? Or did you pretend that it was an accident?"

Water slid off the work station, landing on his shoes and the stone floor. Belatedly, Levi took a step back, and hastily set to drying everything off with a hot air charm. "That's..." Dangerous if done incorrectly, which was a total possibility; this was so completely off the book experimenting it was probably not the sort of thing the Potions mistress would approve of. "...an interesting addition to the potion, actually." It wasn't a lie. He shot Nicholas a searching look; in truth, this wasn't the sort of contribution he'd been expecting from someone who'd admitted to not being particularly good at Potions. "But I think brain inflammation may lead to vomiting," among other things he was presently ignoring, "but the tusil can take care of that, actually. We'd just need to add some more to balance it out."

It was very unfortunate that so much time was spent perfecting the water volume, only for it to be ruined by an oddly unexpected comment. The laughter was startling at first; but after a moment endured watching a spray cover their workstation, Nicholas also broke out in a chuckle.

"Accident. I could build it correctly. I just wasn't the best at the angling." That remained true to this day. Someone could be ready to catch a Quaffle three feet away— he'd still end up tossing it in the opposite direction.

And his head worked like his hands. Nicky felt as if he was on an entirely different page with this ingredient addition, especially after vomiting was brought up. He was about to shut the cupboard door when Levi suggested using tulsi to lessen the effects. "... all right. We can add a very, very little bit." Which wasn't a very precise measurement, but sounded good to him all the same.

The jar of lovage leaves secured in his spindly fingers, he returned to their cauldron. "What's the wildest thing you've done?"
