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!

Wow, what a class! She'd gone from being just friends with Copernicus...to loving Copernicus...then back to being just friends with him again. All in just one class period! "Hey, Cope? Thanks for working with me. Good luck with the rest of your seventh year...oh, and with NEWTs," she said, thinking that with the school year so close to ending, it may be the End-of-Term Feast or the train ride home before she actually saw him again.
She took a few moments to make sure their work area was nice and clean then she gathered her own materials, as well as their two phials. "I'll turn these in," she said, raising the two phials towards Cope. They read:
Name: LouAnn Purple
Class: Potions Lesson 2
Name of Potion: Love Potion
Partner: Copernicus Kettleburn
Date brewed: May, 2070
The other read:
Name: Copernicus Kettleburn
Class: Potions Lesson 2
Name of Potion: Love Potion
Partner: LouAnn Purple
Date brewed: May, 2070
As she handed them to Professor Kazimeriz, she smiled and nodded at the man. "Thanks for a great class, sir!" she told him.

"I may have...better uses for it." she mumbled to Destiny, a sly smirk slowly making its way onto her face. Of course, the right thing to do was to hand it over to Kazi, buuut...Eh. Sticking the wand back into her pocket, and looking around to see if anyone noticed, she started to clean up their table and back her bag, ready to leave. Now to just wait for the others.
Tiberius looked ath Emily sideways before grabbing the extra phial of his potion. He was glad he'd scooped out some extra before Wesley got sick in his cauldron.
Oh. Right. He was going to have to clean that up.
Sighing, Tibi made his way to the front, having labeled the phial and turned it in to Professor Kazimeriz. The label read:
Quote:
Tiberius R. Pryce
Love Potion
Lesson 2
Once that was in, he returned to his station and set to steeling himself to take on the vomit-y rest of the potion. Unholstering his wand, he pointed it at the cauldron to vanish the contents, the gross, icky, stomach-juice filled contents.
Once those were gone, Tiberius went about cleaning his cauldron throughly as he normally would, trying not to gag. Though the contents were gone, still knowing what had been in there he had to suppress a gag.
Ew.

Additionally, each student is to turn in 4 inches of parchment discussing the mechanics of brewing love potion and a summary of your experience -- both as the administrator and the consumer -- with it. Finally, you will write an additional 4 inch essay on the ethics of love potion, particularly giving examples of situations in which you would use it-- and situations where you would not. If you have any questions, I will be available in the potions lab as well as here for a few moments after class."
"Those of you who did not finish your class assignment today may complete your work in the potions lab after you go to your next period class. Thank you all-- and I hope you have learned something of worth today. Good day." With that, Kazimeriz waved a hand, opening the classroom door to dismiss them.
He shuffled over to his leather desk chair and seated himself, going over some paperwork while waiting for the pupils to tidy their stations, turn in their phials if they had not, and depart.
ooc: Gotta close the class so I can get my last one going... feel free to RP cleaning up, turning in work (to get yer points *coughcough*) etc. I will leave the thread open for now, so also if you character needs to see the professor, he's still there at his desk.
Mina grabbed a phial and filled it with her potion carefully. A part of her was proud it work as it should, but was dangerous. Shaking her head, she labeled it in her dainty handwriting.

Double checking to assure it was tightly cocked, she made her way up toward the front of the class and stopped at Kazimeriz' desk. Taking one last look at it, she turned it in to Kazimeriz. Hoping that she would never have to expericence something like that ever again.
Making her way back to her workstation, she quickly jotted down her assignment and went to work on cleaning up. Grabbing a few rags, she pulled on her gloves and filled her cauldron with water. After sloshing the water around, she vanished the dirty water and remnants of her potion away. Seeing that she got most of it out, she grabbed the rags and a bottle of Mrs. Scower's Magical Mess Remover. Putting in a heavy amount of elbow grease in to her scrubbing, she vanished the remaining mess. She was actually starting to get the hang of cleaning, who would have thought? Taking one last look inside, she raised her wand and scourgify it to make sure it was thoroughly clean. Unsure of whether she was to leave the cauldron to air dry or set it by the fire, she settled on that latter and then finished tidying up her workstation. She really needed to get started on those essays.
Kay sighed when she heard the Professor said class was over. She had already filled her phial with the potion and was ready to turn it in.

Kay walked up to the Professor's desk and put her phial there. She smiled at the Professor and walked back to her work station to clean. She was going to go and start her essay right away. She looked at her friend Marie to see if she was ready to go.

He was distracted with talking to Destiny and Keeley anyway. Quickly, she took out an extra phial from her bag. Holding two phials in her hand, she took a big spoonful of the potion and put half of it in one, and the other half in the other. Quickly topping both of them, she stuffed one of the potions in her pocket and held out the other so Josh could see it. "I'm going to write both our names on it. So we don't have to waste another little container."
As Josh began to clean the cauldron, she started to label the potion.
'Pretend never happened' Josh repeated mentally as he made the remained potion vanish. Despite being hard for him, it sounded like a good idea if she could manage it. And she sounded like she could. ''Okay.'' he agreed pouring water into the cauldron to clean the remained substances ''I appreciate it. Thanks''. *Clean-clean* He was lucky that this older Ravenclaw girl taught him how to clean those things properly, he nodded at Rose when she said she would label the bottle for both of them. The next moment he was finally finished with the cauldron so checked on the table. It seemed all set and clean. ''Let's go.'' he told the girls impatiently ''I want to get out here as soon as possible''

It didn't seem that long to clean the cauldron. Maybe because she only had to clean it once this time. It just gets easier and easier. Or maybe Destiny's cleaning muscle was getting bigger.
'Perfect.' Completely wiping the memory of this class out of her memory was the best option. Destiny packed up her things and waited until Josh and Evelyn decided what they wanted to do now.
Kay started to clean out her cauldron. She remember how she was told to do it. "Evanesco" She said to get reed of the rest of her potion. Kay walked over to where the cleaning stuff was and pulled out what she would need. Kay was going to make sure this was done right. "Aquamenti" Kay said an put water into her cauldron. She scrabbed at her cauldron. Once again Kay used the "Evanesco" to get the water out of it. Then to make sure it was clean Kay used the "Scourgify" spell. Having every clean she put her things away and looked at her table. She wasn't sure it was clean enough and did the "Scourgity" spell one more time. Thinking that it was a good job she sat in her sit to wait for Marie.

Marie was happy when class finally ended. This had been a long and crazy class and she just wanted to get back to the common room to rest and maybe do some homework.
She filled a phial, labeled it then handed it in to the professor.

Before going back to her work station she stopped to get some cleaning supplies. When she returned to the table she realized that Evan had not taken out any potion for himself to turn in. "Hey Evan, I will put away all the unused ingredients and clean up the area. I will let you clean the cauldron since you still have to get a sample of the potion out to give to the professor." Marie had enough cauldron cleaning to last a life time during the last class. She was more than happy to let Evan clean this one today. Looking over at Kay, Marie realized that she was already done with her cleaning. 'Hmmmm, wonder if I could get her to clean for me too? Nah, better not, I would probably just get in trouble for it.'
Marie started cleaning the area, putting away all the unused ingredients and wiping down the table. In no time she was done with her part of the cleaning and ready to get out of class. "I think I am ready to go now Kay. Wanna go get started on this homework or do you want to go back to your common room to relax a bit first?"
OH! Livvy felt like the luckiest girl on the planet. But she wasn't because if it weren't for the love potion and she wasn't out of HER MIND, she would know that Samson's ACTUAL girlfriend would come down after her and kick her butt! Though most females of the human species preferred to throw objects.... So maybe Livvy would just have to get out her beater's bat.
ANYHOW... Samson... that... AMAZING... GORGEOUS.... SWEET... boy. He was her boyfriend. She sighed deeply and smiled up at him, her eyes sparkling as she watched him. Aww shuuucks. He was just saying that. But Livvy's heart swelled with joy at his words. Though if she had been sane, she probably would've slapped him. Well... maybe not SLAPPED him... maybe just... well... scooted away. But that was not the case. In fact, the words had an opposite effect and only made Lovepotioned!Livvy scoot even closer. If... that was even possible.
"Oh Samson... I think you're the perfect one here..." she said, smiling with much satisfaction. She could just sit next to him and watch him all day... heck.... for all of her life. She didn't care. Sane!Livvy would care. But this was Lovepotioned!Livvy... and she didn't care about her future. All she cared about was her future with Sammmsooon. Oh darling Samson.
Meh. Livvy was shocked that Samson had let go of her hand. For a moment, she was afraid that Samson didn't love her anymore. She'd have to give him a love potion to keep him with her! (Double love potion?) But then... Livvy's heart stopped. Oh... oh... oh my.
He... he... HE WAS PROPOSING TO HER! WHEEEEE!!! Livvy could just jump with joy. She smiled and tried her best to hold back fakelovepotioned tears. "Yes Samson Carswell. I'll marry you alright! I love you too!" she exclaimed and fell to the ground as she wrapped her arms around her fiancé's neck.
Lovepotioned!Sasmon had just freaking proposed to lovepotioned!Livvy! The world was coming to an end... Well, Sane!Samson's world was, at least. And to make matters worse for him (better for his alternate self), the girl accepted! AGH!
Still out of his mind, Samson felt like he could fly to the moon and back, no broomstick or wand required, at the sound of Livvy's acceptance of his proposal. He couldn't contain his joy. When Livvy hugged him, he all but gathered her in his arms and lifted her off the ground (he was tall, after all) and hugged her like he would never let go. Then he set her gently down, the insane and fake grin still on his face. "You have made me the happiest man on earth, Livvy. I love you," he whispered. Carefully, he lifted her chin, looked deep into her eyes, and slowly leaned down to kiss her. His heart was racing and it was pounding excitedly in his ears, his fingers were trembling with anticipation, his lips were puckered and ready...
POP.
A whirl of dizzyness overcame Samson as his eyes flew open. It took a second too long for the situation to fully set in on him. The sweet scent of strawberries and cream had died. The potion was no longer brewing. Everyone was scuffling about for the class had apparently ended. His back ached as though he had just lifted something heavy without testing it's weight first, and his neck hurt as though something or someone had clung to it for far too long.
And and and...
He was practically face to face with a girl he didn't know. Oh wait, that was right. She was Livvy, his partner in potions class. And they had made love potions a while ago and--
"GAAAH," he screamed as he let go of the girl's chin and practically toppled over backwards as realization washed over him. "D-did we just k-k-kiss?" he asked her quickly, frantically, eyes wide, heart beating with fear and shock, and hands sweating with nervousness. His eyes travelled from head to toe of the girl, stopping only a second too long on the ring on her finger. More dread. His head was still fuzzy and there was no clear account of what happened after they had finished brewing the potion, but it seemed to end up here, where they were about to kiss. Or worse yet, just finished kissing.
AGH. He couldn't very well write his name on the label in this state. He was far, far from recovering.

Ohmerlin. They were doomed. Why in the world would they EVER make love potions in class and use them on each other? It should be like illegal! Love potions should be illegal! Because such crazy things like engagements tend to occur and totally disregarding other people's feelings... Say... Samson's girlfriend.
But Livvy didn't consider that because she was not in her right mind at the moment. No she was not. She had just kissed a boy on his cheek, held hands with him, told him that she loved him, and accepted his hand in marriage. So no. Livvy was most definitely NOT in her right mind. She giggled and laughed in pure delight as he brought her closer and lifted her up into he air, holding onto her. She was set back down, but her eyes never left his, filled with intensity and anticipation. Livvy adored him and her heart raced with the words Samson said and as he began to lean in closer. Here it was... Their first kiss. She stuck her lips out towards her and her eyes gently flitted shut. Here they go...
Blink.
A strong smell of cologne or whatever overcame her, practically choking her. Why did her waist hurt? It's as if someone had placed their arms around her waist intrusively and incorrectly and squeezed too hard. Livvy felt a bit woozy to the head and confused. She couldn't quite make out the thing in front of her. Her eyes flitted over towards the students that all seemed as if they were all leaving. Awww... So soon.
She then turned her face forward once more and noticed that she was face to face, literally inches away, with her lab partner... Samson.
"AHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Livvy screamed, instinctively slapping the boy in the face and shuffled backwards, bumping into a chair and falling backwards as she did so. She landed hard on the floor and she hid behind the chair. "What happened?!" she exclaimed, nervously. D-did they kiss?! She just shook her head, unsure of what had happened, mch less if they had kissed. Her eyes then drifted to something on her finger. What he heck? Was... WAS THAT A RING?!
Completely and utterly horrified, Samson wiped his lips frantically with the back of his hands, all but wanting to rip his lips off his face and burn them. He didn't care for the sting of the slap he had just received from Livvy. There were more important things. He watched her with wide eyes as she hid behind a chair, and after a few more moments of anticipatory silence, he realized that Livvy was just as horrified as he was. They hadn't planned any of this, and it came to his attention that they were in fact in a potions class where they brewed love potions and took them to test their effects. Yes, the mess on the table and the dizzyness the potion left were proof of that. What was more, it was Professor Kazimeriz's idea. Meh. He should have known.
Getting a hold of himself and straightening up, Samson proceeded to the table to fill a phial with the potion, and hastily labeled it:
Samson Carswell
Ravenclaw, 7th year
Potions class 2
Love Potion
Partner: Olivia Zhang
There. At least he was being professional about it.
It was only after placing the phial of nasty, evil love potion on the professor's table did Samson decide to once again face Livvy. Gah. How awkward and embarrassing it was. If it were any other situation it would have been okay, but to snap out of a love potion and find said victim face to face with an unknown girl, about to kiss - that was just wrong and horrible. Ugh.
"You better get up and get your phial to the professor. I expect --" he stopped dead. "Is that a ring?!" he exclaimed, horrified. The ring hadn't been there before, and it obviously wasn't a real ring. And and and...!
Love potions really made one do the craziest things.

Marie really wanted to go and relax but knew she really needed to finish homework and study for finals. "Ok, lets go get some homework done." Marie grabbed her things and headed towards the door to leave. "Have a great day porfessor, thanks for the interesting class."
Evan's mouth dropped open. Marie and Kay was arguing over him? It felt good in a way, that feeling their love either, but also it felt wrong. They shouldn't argue. They shouldn't be sad. Evan was about to hug them both when Marie offered him the phial of antidote. He drank it obediently -both his loves were drinking, and that couldn't be harmful, right?- and with the touch of it to his tongue, he shuddered. But with that drop, he came around a bit, and forced himself to drink. He made a face, a disgusted one. It was indeed bitter and sad to lose love, even artificial one. He sighed. After all, it is better to know who you are. He took another sample from the cauldron of his and Marie's potion. He nodded to Marie and smiled after them as they left. It was a nice lesson, even though he had to love that Huffie girl too. Just ugh. This potion was indeed dangerous.

With that placed on the professor's desk, he turned back to clean the cauldron. He evanescod and scourgified it before making his way to the door. Surely it had been an unusual but cool lesson. Kazi was one of his favourite teachers now.

"Alright, alright." she said, moving even quicker to pack her bag, resulting in bending and wrinkling one of her parchments. *GASP!* Well, there goes a wasted parchment. She could probably just draw on that one but...it's so wrinkly now! Putting on a pouty face, she turned to Josh, giving him a small smile and started towards the door, stopping only for a moment to look at Destiny. "Coming?"

Okay. Don't freak out. Don't freak out. Don't freak out. Don't freak out. FREAAAAAAAAKKKKK OUUUUUUUUUUUUUTTT! She just did who-knows-what with some random BOOOYYY!!!
Confused and horrified with what had just happened, Livvy remained kneeling behind the chair and was prepared to use it in self-defense in case the boy decided to come at her again. But he seemed to be just as confused... just as horrified... just as disgusted as she was with what had been exchanged. What HAD been exchanged? Livvy would never know. And then she remembered it all. Kazimeriz. Potions. Love. AHHHH!!! Crazy professors. Making them drink love potions. Were they like insane or something? Yes. They were. They all were.
Cautiously, Livvy stood back up and made her way back over to the table with the cauldron also, keeping her distance from Samson. It wasn't that she hated him or anything... it was just.... Accckkk.... they could've become acquaintances... they could've become friends, but now because of a STUPID love potion they probably wouldn't dare look at each other again. Thank Merlin Garret hadn't been here to see it.
She sighed and grabbed for a phial, glancing over at Samson at the corner of her eye. "Sorry about the slap by the way," Livvy muttered just loud enough for him to hear, her cheeks growing a bright shade of red. Stupid Potions assignment. Stupid love potions. Who created such a thing anyway? People that used love potions were over-obsessive people that won't give up on someone and can't take a 'no' for an answer. Get. A. Life.
EEP. He saw it.
"Uh. Yeah..." she said awkwardly and slipped the ring off discreetly. Where had it even come from? It obviously wasn't real but how in the world did they even find it. Livvy hoped that they hadn't been allowed to leave the classroom. Great way to make a fool of themselves OUT of the class. "Never will I ever underestimate the power of a love potion," she said, both humorously and bitterly. She set the ring down on the table and picked up a label for the phial, quickly labeling it with her quill.
"Olivia Zhang
Ravenclaw, Sixth Year
Potions Lesson Two
Love Potion
Partner - Samson Carswell"
Livvy went over to the professor's desk and placed her phial on it. Then returned over to her workstation to clean up and shoved some of her equipment roughly into her bag. Thank Merlin for expansion spells. Once finished, she stood there for a moment as she watched Samson with an awkward expression. "Okay. So... this never happened. I'd like it if we could pretend that this whole experiment had never occurred and that we could become friends of some sort, despite it," Livvy said, nodding her head. Hopefully he wouldn't tell his girlfriend. She wouldn't want to get punched in the face as a farewell present.
Emily took up a phial of her potion and labeled it

Emily then took this up to proffesor Kazimeriz "proffessor, i have had a question this whole class, would there have been bad side effects or anything if i gave my potion to a girl?" emily shifted her stuff awkwardly in her arms looking intently at the proffessor.
Arrick was more than happy to hand in his potion--just in case it actually worked, he really didn't want anyone to end up enamoured with him. He labelled it in his cramped handwriting and turned it in.

After an attempt at scrubbing out the cauldron that did not go entirely too well (the remainder of his potion had congealed to the insides as he forgot to take it off the heat), he grunted and deposited everything else inside and hauled it out of the classroom with him.

Cautiously, Livvy stood back up and made her way back over to the table with the cauldron also, keeping her distance from Samson. It wasn't that she hated him or anything... it was just.... Accckkk.... they could've become acquaintances... they could've become friends, but now because of a STUPID love potion they probably wouldn't dare look at each other again. Thank Merlin Garret hadn't been here to see it.
She sighed and grabbed for a phial, glancing over at Samson at the corner of her eye. "Sorry about the slap by the way," Livvy muttered just loud enough for him to hear, her cheeks growing a bright shade of red. Stupid Potions assignment. Stupid love potions. Who created such a thing anyway? People that used love potions were over-obsessive people that won't give up on someone and can't take a 'no' for an answer. Get. A. Life.
EEP. He saw it.
"Uh. Yeah..." she said awkwardly and slipped the ring off discreetly. Where had it even come from? It obviously wasn't real but how in the world did they even find it. Livvy hoped that they hadn't been allowed to leave the classroom. Great way to make a fool of themselves OUT of the class. "Never will I ever underestimate the power of a love potion," she said, both humorously and bitterly. She set the ring down on the table and picked up a label for the phial, quickly labeling it with her quill.
"Olivia Zhang
Ravenclaw, Sixth Year
Potions Lesson Two
Love Potion
Partner - Samson Carswell"
Livvy went over to the professor's desk and placed her phial on it. Then returned over to her workstation to clean up and shoved some of her equipment roughly into her bag. Thank Merlin for expansion spells. Once finished, she stood there for a moment as she watched Samson with an awkward expression. "Okay. So... this never happened. I'd like it if we could pretend that this whole experiment had never occurred and that we could become friends of some sort, despite it," Livvy said, nodding her head. Hopefully he wouldn't tell his girlfriend. She wouldn't want to get punched in the face as a farewell present.
"Yeah, sure," Samson mumbled awkwardly in response to her apology. He'd forgotten all about it. He was still caught up with all the craziness of the love potion. Eugh. And that ring! Was that his idea? Dear Merlin...
As he gathered his belongings and let them fall hastily into his bag in one sweep, he thought about how weird it was to take in love potions. Gavin would have loved this class, no doubt. He'd probably use one on Willow. Or maybe he would insist that she didn't need a love potion and his charm alone was enough. Ah, good old Gavin. Anyway. He certainly did not like the love potion. It was weird and crazy and absolutely lethal, both to him and Livvy. Meh. Issy would have a fit if she knew. More than a fit. A tantrum. She'd probably blow up in his face.
GAH.
He gulped at the idea, then pursed his lips as he slung his full bag over his shoulder. Then Livvy spoke again, to which he nodded in agreement. "Good idea. Nothing ever happened. Yeah." Because if anything did, that would be something he wanted to wipe from his memory foreverrr.
As he got up, he decided he'd walk out of the classroom with Livvy. While he knew she didn't want to talk about it, they probably had to, because of the essay assignment the professor gave them. Before leaving his post, he snatched the ring from the table. "Don'tcha wanna keep this as a remembrance?" he managed to joke.
Well it was the end of the class. With a shy and uncertain smile up at Dominic, Miranda thought it best to get her worktable cleaned and hand in her phial with the evil love potion.
Grabbing her muggle pen, she carefully let go of his hand and wrote down her name and other things, on the label, so the Professor would know who's it was.

Partner? Well she didn't exactly have one... But she guessed that Dominic was her partner, even though she was practically helping him.
Oh my goodness... Miranda raised her eyebrows at the date. How was it possible that time flew sooo fast! It was Miranda's birthday next month...
She walked up to Kazimeriz and put her bottle on his...err, table. "Thanks for an interesting lesson, Professor!" she smiled. And with that she walked back and started to clear out her workspace, ready to get the flap out of here.

BLEH.
Honestly. Who had come up with the whole ring idea? She couldn't help but wander as she stared at both Samson and the ring, watching as her unfortunate love potion lab partner began to gather all his belongings. Livvy didn't care. The next time there was a lesson on love potions... she was skipping it. Totally. In fact. She hoped that she would never EVER have an encounter with one again. Just. No. Never. Please.
Livvy offered a small smile as he agreed with her. Good. She would rather not think back on it ever again. What they had done when they were under a love potion would forever elude her which is exactly what she wanted. What had happened was something that she never wanted to know and an experiment that Livvy wished to be forgotten. She was sure that Samson agreed with her completely. Those moments hadn't been her proudest moment. Even though she didn't know what exactly she had been doing, she got the idea. Heck. They found their faces inches away from each other, puckered lips, and a ring on Livvy's hand. She could of course tell whether or not that moment was proud or not.
A memory? Livvy smirked and rolled her eyes slightly. Would she REALLY want to have that as a memory. "Yes. I really do. I really want to have a token of this experience where I came THIS close to kissing a boy!" she exclaimed, holding up her hand with her index finger just a centimeter away from her thumb to represent the closeness.

So, yeah. The aftershock of the potion was wearing off, and soon Samson found that he didn't mind. Looking back (not that it was THAT long ago), he actually found the scenario to be funny and absurd, with the exception of the almost kissing part. Yeahhh.
As they proceeded out of the room, he grinned and put an arm around Livvy. It was a FRIENDLY arm, mkay? No romantic intentions whatsoever. Eugh. "Well, sure you do," he laughed, tossing the ring into the air and catching it over and over as they walked. "We always have Kazi to blame anyway." And with that, he slipped the ring into one of the pockets of Livvy's bag.
