Adding the powdered moth 1 of 4 Amigos Don't underestimate me! This lesson was moving along rather smoothly for which
Miranda was thankful.. It seemed that maybe .. Just maybe she was starting to get the hang of this whole potion brewing thing.. Perhaps it was the new Potion's Master?.. Or maybe all the extra time in the practice lab was finally paying off!
She looked up again at the sound of Professor Noble's stern voice as he saw that the clumsy went to staunch their wounds with the bandages he was so kind as to have available right there in his classroom. He was giving them the next step of instructions and adding them to the chalkboard. Quickly she jotted them down and went about checking her copper cauldron to see if her pumpkin guts had come to a simmer... WOO!.. They were and she found herself adding the pulverized and super finely powdered Flitterby moths..Stirring spoon in hand she stirred the concoction slowly clockwise.. First once.. It turned greyish.. Twice, Now bruise yellowish-green.. Okay she had to admit, this was a nasty looking color. thank Merlin she didn't have to stop on that colour. the third rotation around her cauldron she saw it darker green, but green.. Once more she spooned the mix and there it was!..
Grass green! " Holy Merlin's monkey... I did it.. It's the right colour!", she exclaimed in the loudest of whispers to herself.. Though others around her were likely to hear her self praise accompanied by an excited and very proud wiggle.
