"One of the bigger reasons should be so you yourself don't get hurt, or worse, if the plant is particularly dangerous." Hmm, so you know what to doooo.

Kurumi took another sip of her tea and swallowed just as Professor Bentley asked a question.

"To know whether or not a plant is poisonous or not," she said tapping her lower lip with her index finger. "For example, not being able to tell the difference between poisonous plants like Water Hemlock and Wild Carrot will produce dire consequences."

The girl was taking another sip of her tea, when she noticed that professor Bentley decided to start the lesson. Hmmm why should we how to identify plants? She was tempted to say that everyone should check first if the plant wants to eat people or not, but she didn't say that. It wouldn't have been... suitable.

She raised her hand. "So we won't get hurt, or poisoned," or eaten, riiiight?

It is also good to know for those who are alergic to certain plants", Chloe responded with her hand raised high.

It was probably the first time Louisa had heard her best friend talking without an insult either to the person she was talking to or on the subject she was referring to. Miracles do happen. The thirteen year old drank some tea to swallow the dry cookie she had difficulty moving down her throat.

Picking up a cupcake from the pack she bit into it gingerly, the taste burnt her tongue with flavor. Taking another bite she managed to finish it fully in a few bites. It was yummy. She looked up once she had finished to see a question on the board, and people answering to it.

Raising her hand slowly she said; "So you know which plants to use when creating some potion" in a bored voice.
