Once her water was boiling just right, Rapunzel carefully added the 5 drops of violet stuff and started stirring, five times clockwise. Clockwise was to the right, right? Er, sure.

She then added the essence of rose thorn and started stirring again, going the opposite direction from how she'd last been stirring. Hopefully that's the right way....man, I always mix up my directions....

Reducing the heat to simmer, Rapunzel looked up to ask the Professor a question and noticed the door to the classroom softly shutting. She narrowed her eyes suspiciously as it appeared the nurse...intern? or somebody like her was hovering in the back of the room. Pffft, what's she need to be here for? Not like she's a student anymore.

Punz rolled her eyes and turned back to her potion, stirring it twice in what she hoped was a counter-clockwise motion. With that done, she added two raven feathers and turned the heat up again, sitting back in her chair as she waited for it to boil. She really needed to get this potion right.
