As Selina was
copying Dylan's notes looking over some clerical parts of Dylan's notes, the redhead got sort of all involved in her writings. So much so that when she heard Dylan's voice she sort of zoned him out, luckily for her he had been talking to Cambridge. But there was something about Selina that just let her sort of turn off her listening ears. It was her most POWERFUL weapon. What?- was her favorite response to every topic of conversation. Mostly because people got really irritating really fast at this school and tuning them out was usually the best way to handle them. Not that the Head Girl EVER tuned anyone out ever... ahem.
Anyway, when she tuned back into the world she heard Dylan yammering off to someone. Looking over to him she saw he was talking to ickle Cambridge. As much as she really did GENUINELY like Cambridge- because the ickle was adorable- whenever Selina saw Cambridge it was like instaheadache because where Cambridge went trouble followed. It was wildly endearing on her, but she could not help but wonder what the younger Gryffindor was up to.
SO she turned up her listening ears and went back to scribbling on her notes so she could listen to their conversation. 'Sides, Dylan got all Daddy Dylan whenever he spoke to Cambridge, which never ceased to amuse Selina. Listening to a little of their conversation while she scribbled she figured out that Cambridge was indeed lost. Heh. Must be a Gryffindor thing with potions because it seemed that Selina was NOT the only one who was rubbish at it. Well come on, potions was hard and confusing and also temperamental. There was not much to like about the class. At least in her opinion.
And then Daddy Dylan showed up. He was all nice and promised to help Cambridge once he was done with this. The redhead wondered if he knew that she was onto him. He was a nice guy underneath all of that really nice hair
that he wouldn't let her braid.
When Dylan returned to Selina, she shot him a knowing smirk about Cambridge and laughed a little,
"Going to go and check on her, Daddy Dylan?" She made sure that she said it low enough so that only the two of them could hear, but at least she knew that HE would hear it. And yes, she was making fun of him a little. At the same time, though, she thought it was sweet he was all caring and stuff of Alexa the headache enduser.
Wait, watching who? Oh the Professor? She rose her eyebrow and said,
"Um, what do you think?" She WAS after all in this bet to WIN it. Duh.
Pulling her hair back in a quick braid, because all of the ingredients were starting to get gross and she didn't want it in her hair, she watched Dylan move onto the next steps. Yeah, yeah... something else equaled something else. This wasn't Arithmancy, Dylan. She didn't need a number lesson.
Doing as he said, she filled up the cup with the correct amount of Armadillo bile, which was two ounces, and then put it to the side. It was time to spin stuff around. Taking the stirrer from earlier, she began to spin it around counterclockwise as fast as she could. Once that was going full speed, she dropped the bile in there and watched it spin around until it finally got lost in the potion. Then she sat and waited for it to stop spinning around and around, it was sort of fun to watch actually, before she moved onto the next step.
Then she measured out the flobberworm mucus and started to load it into the potion with the wooden spoon. Yeah? Was that right? Well, that was how Dylan did it so she was going to do that.
When she did finally look over at Dylan she noticed that he looked kind of funny. Raising her eyebrow, she was about to ask why until she suddenly got a whiff. Yeah... that was why... ew.
Taking her notebook of perfection, she started to scribble down.
