Lisa tilted her head to the side as she listened to Professor Varma speak about the leaves’ acidity and the acid brewed was not harmful at the concentration that they were using. She shook her head at the suggestion. “Thank you but if we’re fine I should be good. I was just curious,” she admitted with a smile before refocusing on the potion. Resuming her work, she finished crushing the leaves until there was enough acid. She picked up her pipette and added one drop, two drops, three drops. Lisa noticed the three precise stirs Nem had made and followed suit cause she figured he was highly capable. So three stirs in a counterclockwise direction were done.

She added three billywig stingers to the potion, watching it turn a beautiful burgundy colour. Wow! So pretty. She blinked, admiring the colour before checking the instructions that she had written for herself. Ah cast the spel. She pronounced the incantation and waited until she was ready to cast it. Straightening up her shoulders, Lisa pointed her wand at the potion and confidently pronounced, “Agitatum!” And the potion began self-stirring. Huh. How neat. Wasn’t magic the bestest?!?

As the potion moved, she eyed the snargaluff pod. It was interesting. Absolutely interesting. Oh right! She had to add it. Lisa added the snargaluff pod to the concoction. What was next? Ah another spell. She asked an older student for some help with the pronunciation before turning back to the potion. She tilted her head to the side, bopping it, as she worked. She was very much in the Potion Zone. “Glacius,” she spoke. She quirked an eyebrow when that didn’t work so she ended up extinguishing said fire manually. She’d have to practice said spell at another time. She now had to wait for her potion to cool.

Lisa turned back to the Professor and the front of the class to learn about their next activity. They had to take pictures!! Ooh okay. She jumped out of her seat and headed towards the props. She did see Claudine eying the garland. Ooh that would make a pretty photo. She grabbed the camera and some twinkly heights before coming back to her seat. She took a couple of her books and created a ledge and then lined up the shot so she could get a picture of her cauldron with the twinkly lights above it.

Aright.

One. Two. Threeeeee! Snap!!

Picture acquired. Scooping up her camera and cauldron, she headed to the dark room to start developing said photo.

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.
