 ~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
The Snakette eventually figured out which leaf she would like to work with: a thick and sturdy one. “Diffindo,’’ she stated confidently, doing the wand movement aimed at the base of the leaf. Once it was severed, she got to work by slicing it up. Claudine was careful to cut the leaf into five millimeters slices but that didn’t mean she got every slice perfectly. There were some slightly larger or smaller than the required measurement. Soon enough, she was done and all but one slice were resting on a tray. She stood up,looking uncertainly at the dehydrators. Fortunately, Eiji was taking the lead so she followed suit, sticking her tray next to his.
Back at her station, the second year tugged off her gloves while looking thoughtfully at the sole aloe vera slice. She had had an encounter with the gel a long time ago but by now, had forgotten what it felt like. It was the perfect time to refresh her memory. |
