Default Question for Prof!
Slytherindor ♛ The Crazytastic Besties ♛ Shan Watson ♛

She didn’t even hear or see Atlas’ muttering or flinch. If she had, Lisa Nam would have been as deep of a red shade as Atlas’ Gryffindor tie! Fortunately, she was not paying too too much attention at this moment so she didn’t even think her pronunciation of the word was incorrect.

Lisa nodded, listening to the Professor’s instructions as she half wrote down the instructions and half doodled around it. She started doodling flowers and badgers AFTER the students were asking questions. Placing her quill down, she eyed the instructions and went to work at her station or so she thought she was getting started before she felt a few droplets of water on her head. She didn’t pay much attention to it but as she turned to face her cauldron, she DID notice Daniel chuckling and then saw Ivy interacting with someone who was on the ground.

She blinked. When had Atlas fallen over?!? And was he okay?! Fortunately the Professor was over there so Lisa turned back to her work, wondering why Daniel looked all smug like. She sighed, practiced the water spell’s pronunciation thrice and cast, “Augmenti.” She poured the water out, ensuring that the cauldron was clean before starting to fill it once more. This time she used a measuring two cups to ensure that her potion would be precise and perfect.

Ah next…. She needed to boil the water. Incendio would be the spell. She practiced the wand movement and the incantation a handful of times before feeling confident in herself to cast it. “Incendio.” Then she went on to measure two cups of elf-made wine vinegar as she waited for the water to warm up.

Once the water was brought to a nice simmer, she added the vinegar and then took her next ingredient. Soon enough, she had found a rhythm and she was liking being in her own little world as she watched. Who knew potion making could be so therapeutic? Lisa continued to crush the Dransul leaves until she started to see a liquid (which she presumed) was an acid. “Professor … how strong is this acid? Should we be using gloves?” she asked curiously as she paused her work…

SPOILER!!:
Ingredients:
2 cups water
2 cups elf-made wine vinegar
3 Dransul leaves
3 billywig stingers
1 snargaluff pod (to expedite brewing)

Instructions:
1. Fill cauldron with water. Heat over a low flame until gently simmering. Add elf-made vinegar.
2. Crush Dransul leaves until acid forms. Using a dropper, add 3 drops of acid to the cauldron and stir counter-clockwise 3 times.
3. Add billywig stingers. The potion should turn a dark burgundy color.
4. Point wand at potion and move it in a spiral motion while casting "Agitatum." Once the potion is moving, add the snargaluff pod.
5. Cast "Glacius" or extinguish the flame manually and wait for the potion to cool. If brewed correctly, the potion will turn black. It will continue to move within the cauldron. Let potion thicken for approximately 30 minutes.
