Oh, ugh. Headgirl Evil-entine was here. Katy stuck out her tongue at the back of the other girl as she entered the library with her young charge in tow. Based on the sheer number of students milling around, this looked like the right place. They'd tried some other fireplaces along the way, but Katy was thankful that the Healer-Potions Master had picked a spot relatively close to the Potions classroom. Climbing all the way to the towers and making it back to the dungeons in half an hour was no fun.

"This is the spot. You see those branchy things in the fireplace there? They look like they're on fire? Those are fire seed bushes. They don't actually have leaves, but they do have seeds, and those are what we need. Got it?" The hard part was the harvesting, though. "Fire seeds are a pain, because they're little sensitive babies who don't travel well, so we need to warm up our bucket first." Katy raised the bucket they'd brought along. "I'll do that. You get on your gloves, and we'll start plucking as soon as the bucket is warm."

Katy pointed her wand at the bucket and repeated the charm, nice and loud and clear just for Maddie to hear it and remember it. "Chaudensis. Does the bucket feel warm to the touch?"
