Raising his hand feebly, Jake sneezed again, coughed, and spoke.
"I juhh-just know the ar-arrows muhh-mean argummmments and nuhh-negativity."
How very fitting again! Sneezing another time, Jake started to get a little nervous. No longer about the runes, but the potion. But he wanted to get out anyway.
"Puhh-please, ppprofessor!" he begged, noting the way she called him Master Upstead again. That hurt, man.
"I nuhh-need tuhh-ter..."
It was definitely time for the puppy-dog eyes, but Jake just couldn't. He was exhausted. Instead, the boy lay his head back down on the desk. He'd wait it out if he had to, but this place was messing with him.
