In an ironic twist of fate that had been foreshadowed in a warmer breeze and couple of tumbling dust mites in the corridor, the expansive tabletop was actually perfect for her activities today as the empty canvas awaiting the touch of her brushes. But first it was time to take the kettle off the little stove in the corner of the room.
Returning to the table where Mitsuki had arranged in a neat row five porcelain cups that she had emptied the contents of five of her flower petal filled phials into. First came the cup containing all of the balloon flower petals and over them came the boiling water, just enough that each petal was submerged. Next to receive its hot bath was the cup of red poppies followed by the petals of vibrant orange from hawkweed. Next came the cup of cornflower and finally red campions. Humming softly to herself, the sixth year took the pestle from her potions kit and used it to smash and grind the petals in their hot bath, cleaning in between each to prevent contamination, and then set it all aside for a bit to steep for a couple minutes before proceeding. While she waited, her attention shifted to the Organic Artistry book she had procured over the summer and began to read.
