| | |  Potions class two
And once again, you enter the dank, dark cave that is the Hogwarts potions classroom... but something has changed. Unlike the environment of the previous class, which was characterized by a clash of noxious odors, this time the classroom is filled with...
THE BEST. SMELLS. EVER.
Though the room is still cast in the typical gloom from the flickering candle wall sconces, unlike during the last class this time the air smells sweet, with notes of chocolate, vanilla, fresh coffee, light florals and fresh breezes, newly cut grass... A thousand lovely scents all harmoniously combining to create a symphony of sweet smells. Small flames are burning under a series of cauldrons simmering at the back of the room, and there are the typical rows of workstations with two stools at each station.
A thousand and three jars, canisters, and containers of potions ingredients line the shelves along the walls, gleaming dully in the low light. Each is labelled in the Professor's shaky old man's script, and at the back of the room are shelves groaning under the weight of huge potions encyclopedias and texts.
At the front of the classroom, a large charmed chalkboard stands. On it are written these simple instructions: Quote: POTIONS CLASS: LOVE POTIONS
Please be seated. The professor will be here momentarily. Be certain that you have all your potions equipment with you; failure to do so may cost your House points. If you are an older student who is familiar with Potions you may set up your workstation. I expect my younger students are now able to set up their workstations as well; if you need help, please ask an older student.
You may talk quietly amongst yourselves, but please keep the conversation to a reasonable level out of respect for your classmates. Thank you. --Professor Kazimeriz Class Synopsis:
The class began with a discussion on Love Potions- the theory behind them and their classification.
Then, the students discussed probable ingredients in love potions based on their knowledge of potion ingredients; this lead to the lab assignment, in which the students were to partner with a person of the opposite gender and brew a basic Class XX love potion.
The students received instruction on how to remove infused oils from their pre-treated lovage seeds, and were instructed to work in pairs to complete this task.
Next, the students were instructed to add a single drop of swan blood to the potion, bottled a draught, and sample each other's work. Ah... Love!

"What, do you have something against Jack?" Lucy asked jokingly. "Um, no. He's my friend," he replied distractedly as he was considering the amount of risk involved in sitting with Reese, who was pretty close to Jack. But then she might protect him. But she might not if she got mad too.
Memories were coming back to him and he didn't really like them.
Finally he shook his head. "Come on," he told her as he headed over to where Reese was and set his stuff down beside her. |

Kylie bounced up and down a little bit, she was excited for the class to begin. Kay laughed as Kylie started jumping up and down. "Ok, I think you may be right but we will have to keep and eye on them. You really love this class don't you." Kay said still giggling at her. "Well Love potions it is then." Kay said as she finding herself going up and down with Kylie.

When he moved towards the other girl, Lucy followed him and sat down beside him. She opened up her bag and started piling out Potions ingredients, and her equipment. Then she looked at the other two, waiting for the class to begin.

A mischievous smirk grew on her lips before she continued to drum her fingers, waiting for the class to start. Destiny nodded at Evelyn. 'We just have to wait then.' She really had no idea what to do to these girls, but it was quite amusing to scare them a little.
And then them girls decided to look over at her and Evelyn. And they were talking loud enough for Destiny yo hear. Turning to Evelyn, she said loud enough for the girls to hear, 'Oh great! They are putting up a shield charm. Our plans our now ruined!' They couldn't keep that shield up forever.

He had had Lissy for a companion in most classes, lately, but at the moment he was alone, and Fyo shrugged a little as he began to set up his workstation. He remembered the last class, which had been fun in its own way, and he wondered if they Professor Kazi!Man had something equally... exciting, in store for the class, today. Probably.

Kay leaned over to Kylie and whispered. "Well they won't do to much now. But we'll still be on our toes." Kay looked over at Marie and smiled. She didn't know if she should say anythine are not about the other two. "Yes, I love learning everything I can too." Kay said to Kylie.

Glancing behind to the two Hufflepuffs, she put on a defeated and sad face before turning back, as if not realizing that the two girls were watching them. "Darn it."
Smiling, she took out her textbook and flipped to a random page. "Just have to find another way then." she mumbled quietly to Destiny. "I remember last class I had excellent flicking skills." Well, she thought she said that last part in her mind and she suddenly looked surprised when she realized that it was spoken out loud. Shrugging her shoulders and shaking her head, Evelyn stared at the words in her book, not really reading them, but just to pass time. | |

Professor Valon Kazimeriz stormed into the room, his silver-tipped obsidian cane clanging angrily against the stone dungeon floors.
"Enough idle chitter chatter-- you are pupils, not howler monkeys." he sneered at the students, his dark eyes scanning the room as he approached the lectern. He eyed the row of bubbling, steaming cauldrons lined up on the workstation at the front of the room warily, then turned his attention back to the students.
"So. Love potions." he said with obvious disdain. "Easily among the most dangerous potions in existence, and certainly a classification of potions that any competent witch or wizard should know not only how to brew, but how to combat. Before we begin, I would like to assess your knowledge of love potions."
"For two points, please share one fact about love potions with the class." He waited for the students to respond, leaning against the lectern as though bored... But his eyes were sharp, watching the students like a hawk.

Tibi raised his hand warily as he felt Kazi's eyes on him.
"Sir? One thing about love potions is that don't actually cause love. It's more of an obsession or infatuation that actual affection."
Tibi had kept his eyes on the professor as he said it, but once he was finished, he dropped them back to the desk as he lowered his hands, not waiting for a response.

Hmm, just one fact? Jack felt like an EXPERT after the experience at the beginning of term. Hehe. He looked over at Torin before raising his hand to answer. "Amortentia, one of the most popular love potions, smells different to every person, depending on what they're attracted to," he explained.

Raising her hand Marie said "Professor, love potions don't actually make you fall in love, they only make you think you are in love."
Marie really wanted to do good in this class so she hoped the professor didn't remember what happened in the last class.

Whoa. Kazi scared the daylights out of Destiny. She didn't even couldn't even answer Evelyn back because of him. They will talk later..
Ooo, Destiny knew something. She raised her hand 'The longer the potion sits in something, like a drink, it becomes stronger.' | |

"The effects of a love potion can wear off naturally over time." Evelyn said after raising her hand. That was a fact...right? Taking a deep breathe and smiling again as she inhaled the sweet scent of the room, she closed her book, and looked around the room, finally noticing the cauldrons lined up in the front of the room. 'How could i miss that?'

"Well, it makes you a little loopy, like you'd do anything for the person you love, that you would take the Avada Kadavra right in the chest to protect the one you love," Rafe said with a raised love. "It makes you want to be with the person you love all the time and you can't stop thinking about them, just the mentioning of their name makes your heart swoon." Rafe blushed a little. He was speaking from personal experience, as he sunk down in his chair.

The person would only think they were in love and a Potoin can't make real love." Kay said hope that the Professor was in a good mood today. He didn't like it when students wasted his time.

Fred heard some of the most obvious answers to the professors question so he looked in his book to find something different. When he found it he raised his hand to answer saying, "Ashwinder eggs are a common ingredient in love potions", whatever ashwinder eggs are.

Raising her hand slightly, Mina offered her answer. "The duration of the effects of a love potion can vary depending on the weight of the drinker and even on the attractiveness of the one that the drinker is obsessed with." All the other students did give better answers, but she did have to try and answer anyway. | |

He did go through his book this time, "Sir the effects of the potion is instantaneous and the drinker might appear a bit peaky and extremely excited." The other answers very waaaay better than him.Oh well.

Michelle's hand shot up in the air as soon as Professor Kazimerez said, `On fact about love potions'. `Professor, te effects of an item spiked with love potion can strengthen the longer the item is kept before consumption.' Chelle answered readily. She hoped that her answer was good enough to earn two points for Ravenclaw.
