Default 2 - Ingredients



Hecate sat in her chair with a few ingredients on her desk.

A bottle of powdered Dragon Horn:



and a box with other ingredients:



She simply waited for the students to come in.

This would be fun...

... for her anyway.



ooc: This class will stay open for at least 72 hours (probably more.) Also thanks to Antarctica! for taking the picture of the Potions Classroom for me at the WWoHP, and to Ameh for makin it into a pretty graphic!

Blonde&Proud Sirius Sense of humor

Alfie's blue eyes widened as the Professor addressed her and a few other people, explaining that she wanted all of her students to greet her as they entered her room. She didn't know that! Why hadn't she known that?! She quickly gave her an apologetic smile, "Sorry Professor," the girl responded politely before listening as the lesson continued. She tried her best to think of where one would be able to find Potions ingredients around the Hogwarts grounds, but she couldn't think of anything off the top of her head.

Gasp.
"yes Professor" he said looking at her.

Really??? He went up to sit next to the professor. Hoping that he won't screw anything today.

She was serious, and waited for their answers.
OOHHH!!! So is that the reason why he was asked to sit next to her? Not the seating arrangement he would like to be in but it's a change.

"professor" Jonathan spoke. Well, he is beside the professor might as well do well in her class. "The dragon potions is one of the most common potions used by wizards and witches" he said looking at the jar filled with red powder. "I've read that it comes from the horn of a Romanian Longhorn?" he wasn't sure. He couldn't remember the dragon's breed.

Ok, see, there was something VERY ODD going on here. HOW, in the name of MERLIN, did the professor know that she was a Miss Di Marco? HOOWWWW?! Ryden slid lower in her seat, frowning at the table as she tried to remember if she'd ever met all the faculty members of Hogwarts before. If she had, she didn't recall it and she dearly hoped Father didn't have anything to do with that.

Perhaps they were watching them? A big brother type thing? But, this was the SLYTHERIN professor - shouldn't she be just a little bit cooler than that? Hmm. Or maybe there was a Nineteen Eighty-Four theme going on. THAT could be kind of cool.

At any rate, when the professor asked her question, Ryden came up blank, mostly because the easy things had already been said. And because "water from the lake" was an unacceptable reply, even for her.

The younger blonde that has seated herself next to her had forgotten to greet Professor Lafay and got a small reprimand. Smiling encouringly over that her Sophie tried to let her know that it was 'okay'. Nothing to worry just to partcipate in the lesson. The potions mistress had an ever-changing temper which you needed to be vigilant of. Raising her hand as the first question was put to the class. "If Professor McFusty has any goats down in the creature pens we can extract bezoars from them. Bezoars cure most poisions." Which should be good to have on hand in the potions store room. "I've also seen I think horned slugs on the grounds near the tree houses which are used in the boil-cure potion." Taking down her hand Sophie she waited to hear other suggestions.

Hands clasped together, Aiden closes her eyes while listening to everyone else's answers. Then, she starts to play with her fingers with both eyes still shut.

Thanks to the ideas obtained from other students, Aiden is trying to simplify her explanation.
"Beetle's eyes... I'm sure we can find beetles in the schoolground," Aiden gives another answer, but still thinking. "Of course we can find caterpillars in the garden and cockcroaches... Behind wardrobes? In empty rooms?"

"Maybe we can find leeches around the lake," Helena suggested, with her hand raised. But thinking twice about it, she regretted the fact that she said that. What if professor Lafay was going to make HER look for leeches?! Anyway, she had to go on. "I remember that we used leech juice for the Shrivelling potion."

"We could also find some simple ingredients around the grounds, like caterpillars" or other bugs "or daisy roots, also used for the Shrivelling potion."
"Yes Miss Hopkins," she said nodding.

"Good Miss McCarthy," she said making notes.

And the audacity to mention "MISS JONES" and not "MISS WARFIELD" WAS JUST NOT RIGHT.

So, in attempts to be nice (or slightly less smirky in her head) she gave a lethargic wave, not giving any eye contact and sighed as she stared at the ground.

Oh there was a question.

She raised her hand. "I suppose you could go to the Magical Creature Nursery and obtain several ingredients from those little--ratty--things," she scoffed and shuddered, rolling her eyes, "they serve no use in the world than to just sit in that nursery all day like a--" *COUGH* she stopped herself (BUT IT WAS ALL TRUE) and continued answering the question, "there could be some Jobberknolls in there for us to PLUCK that are used in Memory Potions or Truth Serums... or even Ashwinder eggs for the Love Potions."
"Those ratty things are quite useful in the potions world. I suggest you get used to touching them. Jobberknolls are in the Nursery, but Ashwinders eggs are highly flammable. We don't have those around except for in my refrigerated stores... which are no more." She said.

"Very good," she said nodding.

Was the name Professor Bentley?

O_o

He forgot.
"Good," she said.

"The leeches are used in shrinking solutions...." And polyjuice potion. She doubted they'd be talking the polyjuice potion though. Darn.
"Yes Miss Flores," she said nodding.

This stupid thing about the professor's confusion about her gender was not going to change that conviction. She sat up straight and tucked her bangs behind her ear, listening to the responses and hoping to figure out the question.
ooc: Sorry

"Miss Black, I suggest you speak up in my class. You won't learn, if you don't." She said.

Only the thought of that made her shudder, especially at the thought that she'd actually considered going for a swim in the lake.
"Leeches. Got it." She told them.

"There's a whole patch of Dittany not too far from the path leading to the lake, Professor," he answered, his legs kicking the chair underneath him eagerly. He reeeeally wanted to go outside and collect stuff. Much more fun than sitting in a dank classroom in the dungeons, and he had a much better chance of doing in that than following an exact potion recipe. "It's used in healing potions such as the Wiggenweld Potion."
"Good." She said.

She cleared her throat, glancing at the ingredients that had been included in her starter potions set. "Well, beetles can be found all over the grounds," she said. [b]"And their various bits are used potions. She looks through the rest of them, thinking furiously. Armadillo bile? No. No armadillos here... Powdered unicorn horn? Didn't that sixth year say something about unicorns in the Forest? Oh, I have no idea. What the devil is a bezoar? Tubeworms. Safe bet.

"With a bit of digging just after a good rain, tubeworms start surfacing when... their little holes fill up with rainwater."
"Beetles and tuberworms," she nodded, "Which potion are they used in?"

He lowered his head until the Professor asked a question. "Maybe snake fangs?" He raised his hand and answered. He actually tried to look for snake fangs and he found one snake but wasn't witty enough to, well, outwit a snake and catch it. "Snake fangs can be used for potions like Herbicide Potion and the Boil-Cure Potion." He added before lowering his hand. He always spoke with his hand up he didn't know why.
She laughed. "Ever harvested snake fangs?" She asked. "And there are plenty of snakes here."

Thinking carefully about it, the third year thought of something but wasn't totally sure if it was accessible at the grounds. Eh, he would take a stab. He raised his hand, "Isn't there Moly plants on the grounds?" That was certainly used for potion making. He had read about it before and found it quite interesting. "And it's an ingredient for the Wiggenweld Potion, I think."

It was something with a funny name, anyway. Jamie picked up his Quill and jotted down some of the things that other students mentioned.
"Yes, we do have some Moly blooming." she said.

"Is she now?" She said.

He wasn't necessarily suggesting to go slay one, but their blood was a potion material as well.

"Why, Prefect Cartwright, Miss Adler..." She said in a coy voice, "Unicorn blood is illegal... we certainly can't harvest that..." She smirked. "But that is indeed a good answer..."

Kurumi looked over at Eino and flashed him a smile. That was very kind of him to have given the Potions Mistress ingredients. However, Kurumi's eyes narrowed a bit as she looked at the box of potions ingredients. She was a little...concerned as to what exactly Eino had given her.

Hearing the question, and several students answering before she could, Kurumi thought and finally raised her hand. "Professor, one could visit the Owlery and take some eagle owl feathers that have fallen from one of the many owls there. These feathers can be used in Dragon Tonic." Yep, ever since Flying and hearing about dragon bladders being used for sport in a broom game, Kurumi had had dragons on the mind and had checked out a few books about them in the library.

Who wouldn't want to cure a sick dragon?
"Eagle feathers," she said. "Good."

She knew which ones went where, but gathering them...that was something she had yet to do.

So she looked forward and listened intently as her classmates rattled off ingredient after ingredient. She raised her hand to answer with beetle parts, but just as she did so, some Ravenclaw beat her to it. She lowered her nhand and shot the girl a glare. Finally, she raised her hand again. "Flobberworm mucus," she said, "is used to thicken potions. It's an ingredient in the Wiggenweld Potion, too. Flobberworms are found really anywhere on the grounds." Right? She hadn't exactly ever looked for them.
"Good." She said.

"I think Belladonna is found in hair color changing potions." Her sister was always changing her hair color, and always made sure that she had belladonna before making the potion.
"We do have that." She said

Oakey then thought that maybe he should have came up with a less disgusting ingredient. Hopefully today's class wasn't going to be about collecting the ingredient you mentioned.
"Rat parts. Good." She said.

"Erm, daisy roots," she said questionably. Those had to be out on the grounds somewhere. I mean, really, how hard could it be to find a daisy. "And those are used in... shrinking solutions." She thought. Yes. No. Maybe. Yes? UGH. This was why she hated thinking.
"Good." She told her.

Conan raised his hand, "You could make a caterpillar and worm soup." That was kinda like potions right? You could feed it to a bird or a chick.

Remembering a glimpse of information she had read the week before during lunchtime, Ariadne raised her hand to answer: 'Well, Valerian roots and asphodel are ingredients for the Draught of Living Death.' Even the name of the potion gave her shudders.

Annabelle thought about it, well we could make a elixir of life potion? or make a peppermint soup? Annabelle thought the peppermint soup sounded good to have right now.

Calmly, she responds to the question returned to her. "Draught of the Living Death," said Aiden briefly.

As for the next question, Aiden needs some time to think.
"Antidotes?" she gives the lamest simplest answer.

She raised her hand, eyeing the list of ingredients, and then thinking up of a possible potion they could take from all of it. "With most of the plant ingredients, such as the Mandrakes and dittany... I believe you could make a powerful restorative draught--adding a bezoar could help too if it's used as an antidote if I'm correct," she stated still with a slightly smirky attitude but trying her best to participate in the lesson.

"Now, if it's a serious physical injury, maybe using ingredients from the Befuddlement Draught or the Draught of the Living Death such as Valerian roots or lovage could help turn the draught into an anaesthetic as well."

Apparently other than his description Jonathan couldn't further more explain himself to Professor Lafay. Uh. If only he had read more about those stuffs. How is it that he could never remember such things anymore? He clearly knew what the ingredient was about. Why not now? "probably they're instinct?" recently he heard these dragons were. It's because because people demand too much of it's horns.

Next question.

Jonathan carefully recalled the ingredients that were called out. "Aconite" he said "is known by it's other names as wolfsbane and monkshood" that he is sure of. He heard his father said that once "Aconite is a common ingredient for Wolfsbane potion" obviously. "That potion can be able to ease or reduce symptoms of" what was the animal or creature again? Jonathan thought... "... Lycanthropy or werewolf"

Ohhh he should also think of something creative and create his own potion... Hmmmm... He looked at his parchment and tried recalling which ingredient belonged to which potion...

Whaaa?

She paused for a just a moment when she heard caterpillar and worm soup. Yea, she'd like to see that kid eat that. Seriously. Back to answering the question though.

From what she could see on the list and what she could remember... "You could probably make some sort of calming potion." Probably not THE calming potion, but something similar. Hmm, like tea.

Simon looked at the Professor and smiled this was his sort of question. "Well how about a potion that will kill all the people you hate." Simon smiled, well he was just answer the question and he couldn't think what the potion was called.

And now she could READ MINDS?!?!

No wonder people said this professor was scary. Ryden, on the other hand, was beginning to think that she might not be just a professor. Perhaps there WAS some sort of conspiracy going on? Hmm.

"You could make the Confounding Concoction, professor," Ryden said as she eyed the list of ingredients. It was the first thing that came to her mind that contained all of the ingredients. But why were there no ingredients in the storeroom again? Something about a fire?

She'd have to ask Koala Boy sometime.

There were plenty of potions that could be brewed with those ingredients, although most would need additional ingredients. Some would have to be modified, but still manageable. He raised his hand. "Getafix's Potion, also known as the Strength-Enhancing Potion, could be brewed using some of those ingredients." Of course, it wouldn't be as good as it had to be because certain ingredients were missing, but it would still work to a certain level. "Daisy roots, snake fang powder, nettles, asphodel, and bezoars, and caterpillar cocoons are common ingredients in the potion." The ingredients necessary to brew it weren't rare, but the brewing process was extremely difficult and only potion experts could achieve the perfect result. Everything else worked as a mere energy booster, which didn't last for very long.

'Snake fangs, when crushed, are an ingredient used in the preparation of some potions, like Herbicide Potion and the Boil-Cure Potion.', the girl said. After a short break, Gwendolyn added:' But for the Boil-Cure Potion we would need plenty of other ingredients, like Flobberworm Mucus, nettles, Porcupine quills'

Evan smirked back, mostly to himself though, since it was a little rude to smirk at a professor, especially at Lafay. Maybe they couldn't have it, but it was there, for those who were too desperate or shameless to use it.

Whoa, that was a long list. At mandrakes, he raised his hand. "Mandrake Restorative Draught, professor," he offered, definitely too lazy to check the rest of the list for a more creative potion.

Alex had been rather silent this lesson, mainly because he was still in a bit of shock over Lafay's...kindness? compassion? towards him in the office just a short time ago. He'd felt like he saw an entirely new side of her, and it was just...going to take some getting used to. Lost in his thoughts, he shook his head to clear away his distracting thoughts and raised his hand.

"Well dittany is used for healing, right? So you could make some sort of healing potion with that, I'm assuming," he explained.

Aurora nodded, "Yes, we saw it in her lesson." she confirmed.

Aurora frowned a little with concentration. "You could make a Silvertongue Draught." she said, grinning. It was such a cool potion an had got her out of many tight places...

Properly chastised, Presley was going to answer this next question. She thought for a long moment. Peppermint....hot chocolate? No. Not a potion. Maybe it was used to make a mask of some sort of other potion? That could be valid. Presley raised her hand. "This isn't a specific potion, professor, but could Peppermint be used to mask the taste and or smell of another potion?" Her dad had always used peppermint tea to cover the taste of nasty healing potions.

What potions are they used in? Ah! She asked that the first time. You know this! You know this.

Carr closed her eyes to think hard about the question. "Uh, well, neither ingredient is really... necessary in most potions. They can be used as correctives. If you stir in beetle's eyes in the opposite direction as your last stir, it can offset problems caused if you accidentally stirred too many times. And... tubeworms sliced the right way can be used to counteract complications created by heating your potion on a setting that lower than you should have."

She opened her eyes, then, smiling. That's right, isn't it?

Samira surveyed all the potions carefully. Her eyes immediately landed on 'Peppermint', and she raised her hand. "Professor, peppermint can be used in a lot of potions to improve the taste...or it can also be used in Pepperup Potion to improve the taste when you're sick."
