It turned out that Katy was familiar with the spell, although she hadn't tried it before. She was nodding eagerly as the professor demonstrated the incantation and wand movement, and Katy almost gasped and clapped at the actual extraction. That was MUCH easier than doing it by hand, although there was still some distillation and stabilization required before it could be used. But easier by far.

Maybe she did clap, actually. He'd deserved it.

And then it was time to practice the spell. Katy was tempted to skip the practice and move right on to the extraction... if she had enough time, she could make use of the free supplies and take a sampling of everything back to her dorm. Buuuut, this was more about practice makes perfect and, since they'd sold off the lotions and perfumes business, Katy had much less use for essential oils. Just the potiony ones...

Katy practiced the flycasting motion with her wand as she retrieved some sprigs of lavender. Lavender was a perfect additive for calming and stomach settling when potions needed to be imbibed. And a phial. And... to begin.
