Did she want to willingly engage in discussion with Professor Noble outside of times she was required to be around him? Not really. It’d been over a year but the image etched into her mind of him dismantling her lab was as fresh as if it was happening in that very moment. It wasn’t so much a grudge as.....the trauma that came with his scrutinising gaze and the way they seemed to suggest he was still looking for anything else he could take from her.
But it made the topic no less interesting and while she could simply test this out herself to get answers....it would mean serious injury to her test subjects and she wasn’t game for that, not with the living or the undead ones. She was another viable option but with everything else....even she knew it was a bad idea—one that would not easily be explained away.
“Maybe. We could meet in the Great Hall before dinner.” That way, if she felt need for an escape, the food arriving soon after would be the perfect excuse.
It was a discomfort she would accept, especially after the man mentioned it fighting off dark magic. It was sounding more and more attractive with each additional statement.
If the wiggling larvae were meant to get a reaction, they didn’t. In her eyes they were just another potion ingredient. Very effective ones in this case.
With her hair already pulled up, Jessa rolled up her sleeves then went to get one of the bottles of ethanol. Meticulously....she charmed a piece of cloth, poured some ethanol on it and had it scour along her bench until she felt satisfied. That done, she ended the charm then went to get her hands washed. The pipes were charmed on then off to prevent her touching them and contaminating her now clean hands.
Okay, she was ready. Jessa headed up and began grabbing the ingredients she would need. “How will we test these, Professor?”
