But we're going to be strictly professional about this, 'kay?" Snort. What a laugh. And yet he kept his face straight. Again, the sooner they got this over with the better.

"I'm..." He didn't like the introduction part. He really thought it was not necessary. And that was one thing he hated about pairing up. More often than not he would end up with a partner he didn't know beforehand. Meh. "...Samson." He didn't lift his own eyes to meet the girl's.

"Sooo, what do we do now?"

And curses, Willow Kovac, for not speaking up earlier. Coulda made her his partner. Heh. Oh well.

Dead. Dead. Dead. DEEEAADD. A fluttery feeling was felt in the bottom of her stomach and Livvy couldn't help but feel nervous about this. Could she detect something of unhappiness on the boy's face as he walked over? Oh yes she could. She was glad that the feeling was mutual. Really? Who would want to do this activity?

And then he spoke up. Blink. Blink.

What he said was said in a completely serious tone, but it sounded rather funny coming out of his mouth. Pfft. It would sound funny coming from ANYBODY'S mouth.

Livvy's lips curved up into a slightly bitter smile, but she'd be kind. Plus he looked older. And BIGGER. She wasn't going to mess with him. Unless. Of course. He messed with her. Never insult someone that used to be a Beater. "Strictly professional. But of course. Let's just... do this and get it over with," she said, sighing inwardly and looking up to the ceiling in misery. Why? WHY? Why did she have to come to this lesson?

Mhm. Samson. Didn't seem like he was too fond of introductions. Livvy glanced around the room, hoping to maybe find a partner that she actually KNEW. No offense to Samson, though honestly, Livvy believed that he'd be quite joyous if she found a different partner. ERGH. Jack. Why hadn't she seen him sooner?! But it was too late. The Ravenclaw prefect was already working with someone else. Well at least Livvy knew that Samson wasn't secretly in love her. That'd be safe. Though a part of her wished that Garret

She scowled and glanced back over at Samson. Directions? Oh right. Livvy pulled out the piece of paper where she had jotted down the directions.

SPOILER!!: Directions

"You can warm up the water and I'll crush the fluxweed," she ordered as she took it out and began to crush it gently with the blade of her cutting knife that she used for potions. Livvy didn't even bother to ask whether or not he wanted to. Surely there wasn't ANYTHING about this assignment that he would want to do.
