 Constant Vigilance! O_O AWAKE!
Juniper slowly began to raise her hand, but quickly lowered it as the Slytherin girl beat her to volunteering. She looked curiously at the girl--she had never seen her before. But then again, Juniper would be more likely to recognize someone's feet than their face.
After starting a small fire under her cauldron, Juniper began the first step and put two tablespoons of beeswax into her cauldron to melt. She hummed quietly but tunelessly under her breath as she chose five flobberworms and... squeezed them. Into a small dish. Gross. But that way, she could add the juice right away when the wax was melted. Which, Juniper saw as she peered into her cauldron, it was.
Juniper tipped the dish of flobberworm juice into her cauldron and raised the heat before beginning the five minutes of precise stirring. As she stirred, she glanced around at the others. |
