Soooooo distracting... too much... shut uuuuuuup! Jake thought, keeping his gaze firmly on the dragon and absolutely NOWHERE else...
Ooh a butterfl-
FOCUS!
Smiling up at Professor Truebridge for the briefest of moments, Jake nodded. "I'm... okay..." he said, biting on his lip. Hold on, waiiiiiiiiit... I'm trusted? Dude... I trust you too, man! GROUP HUG!
Erm... no.
With a last smile, Jake decided he really should focus right now.
Hmmm... funny word, should... Often pops up around dragons...
"Doing alright down there Jake?" Ethan didn't take his eyes off the fang as he spoke.

"I can take those containers for you now, sir," Copernicus reached for the stack Bontecou was carrying.

"Alright," Ethan dropped his wand and the dragon fang latched into the container, venom immediately beginning to shoot into the container. With a practiced eye, Ethan indicated the next container needed to be switched over... now!
"Copernicus, If you could put the outer lids on the full venom containers, Clifford can help you with that." Ethan looked up briefly, "And Celandine and Paris, if you two wouldn't mind sealing the container if you know a decent sealing charm?"

Except for one thing...she was having trouble looking right directly at what the Professor was doing, because she was busy feeling the breathing of the dragon...
Then she looked at Jake, "Pst!" she called on him, "Focus" she mouthed and gave the she-dragon a look...
And she continued to pay attention...as usual.
"Everything alright, Kaika?" Ethan checked.

"I'm sorry," Tobi wheezed. "Could you repeat that?" It sounded like you wanted me to feed myself to a dragon.
"If it stirs. Potion goes in mouth. It won't wake up unless it is hit by several spells at the same time as it stirs, and Kaika and Jake will notice it stirring first. Man up, Avalon. I know you can do this."
Noting that Copernicus and Bontecou had the harvesting from the pipe grooved fang under control, Ethan moved on to the secondary fang. "The front groove fang is shorter as you can see, and it does not fold back. See these apertures?" Ethan pointed them out with his wand, "that is where the vipertooth is able to spit it's venom from. It's a spiral shaped channel, and it forces a spin on the venom so it can be more accurately aimed." Ethan took a container and hooked it into the fang, venom immediately filling the container.
"Anna and Herminny, if you two wouldn't mind labeling the containers as they are filled, so we can see at a glance which type of venom from which type of fang it is."
