Hopefully this had been done right. Quote:

Ellie 'evanesco'ed the nothingness out of the cauldron, to be safe. She had to get this right.
Then she poured in the pumpkin juice. Seemed a shame to waste pumpkin juice... Well, she's not wasting it now, but if the meany head potions lady hadn't gone mad and made them all bald, it would be quite a waste. She 'incendio'ed a low flame, as well.
Sniiiiiiiiiiiiiffffffffffffffffffffff. Smells yummy..... Quote:

Then she added in exactly one gallon of pumpkin juice and, lighting a fire underneath her cauldron -with the help of a quick "Incendio!" - brought it to a low simmer, as instructed.
There, there. Quote:

Pouring in her pumpkin juice, she lite the fire under her cauldron. Now she would watch to make sure that it didn't boil. just a slow simmer. Quote:

Willow realized she started to daydream. She shook her head of her thoughts, cleaned out her cauldron, poured the pumpkin juice in, started the fire under the cauldron and waited for it to start simmering. After she finished this she went back to her thoughts of the positives of baldness... Quote:

Good thing she replenished her supply of ingredients before the term started. Sidney also looks down in the bottom of her bag and pulls out a yellow bandana and wraps it around her head. It's getting cold down in the damp and drafty dungeon. She then goes through her kit and pulls out the ingredients she needs: Flobber Worm Pus, Essense of Lavender, adult Mandrake Leaves, Re'em Blood, and Rat Tails. She places them next to her cauldron. Sidney then gets up and walks over to the supply table and picks up a tray. She walks over to the potions stores and finds the other ingredients she needs: Gotu Kola, Honey, Saw Palmetto Extract, and Zinc. Sidney takes the tray to her work station. She then goes back to the work table and finds a galleon measuring cup. Sidney takes it into the potion stores and pours a galleon of pumkin juice into it. She takes it to her work station and then collects the knotgrass blooms and fluxweed leaves from the plants. Now that she has all her ingredients collected, Sidney writes down the ingredients list in her journal and waits for Professor Lefay to give them the directions to brew the potion. Sidney must say the professor seems to be in a good mood for her at least. Quote:

If she didn't, in addition to public humiliation, she would also face personal disappointment.
She added the pumpkin juice in and carefully brought it to a low simmer. She waited for further instructions. Quote:

Marie..Destiny wished she would stay bald though. Make this rope curse more amusing. Marie could be like Destiny's bald little kruppie walking on a leash..heehee.
Destiny quickly took out parchment and quill and wrote down the ingredients. She really hoped they weren't going to need to wear goggles in this class, since they were the reason she was in trouble last class. She was sure seeing Evelyn wearing goggles while bald would make her laugh even worse.
Finally finished with the notes, she ran a hand over her bald head while she waited for what to do.
Ingredients! That's what they had to do now! Pulling Marie with her, she grabbed the things she was going to need. It was a lot of stuff too, and she thought she would need to make two trips. Luckily she managed with one, and she was glad. She didn't want Marie to complain..some more. When she made it back to her station, she placed all her supplies down.
As she waited for the next set of directions, she once again ran a hand over her head. Heh. She should have taken that aloe glop from Herbology class. It would have come in handy right about now...It would probably make her head cold though..or flammable. O___o
Hearing the next step, she immediately pulled out her wand. Her cauldron was already clean since the Professor had done it for her last class, sooo that meant she could start her hair potion! Placing the cauldron on the burner, she poured the gallon of pumpkin juice inside and cast a quick "Incendio!".
That spell..
Waiting for the pumpkin juice to simmer, she moved closer to Evelyn and whispered, "Make sure your books are away from your fire..the fire that you are NOT allowed to light!" There was no way she was going to let Evelyn cast that spell..not after what happened last class. "Incendio." she said pointing her wand at the bottom of her friends cauldron.
Everyone was safe..for now. Quote:

Turning her attention back to her cauldron, it was clean but she was going to triple check it anyway. She couldn't afford to have any more mistakes. Setting it down, she turned the fire on. It just needed to simmer now. She kept a very close eye on it though, it just needed to be a low simmer and she wasn't about to mess up again. Quote:
Originally Posted by individual Clean their cauldron? Pfft. Hers was always clean. Always VERY clean.
However, she made sure once again that it was as clean as she thought it was, and when she was satisfied with it enough, Evelyn carefully poured in the gallon of pumpkin juice so it didn't splash all over everywhere. She didn't want a second mess to clean up when they just started.
Sitting back down on her stool, she was about to take out her wand to light a fire under the cauldron when she paused. Eh, perhaps that wasn't such a good idea. But, hearing her friend say something about not lighting it and THEN seeing Destiny light the fire under her cauldron for her, the Slytherin gave her friend a grateful nod before moving to make sure it wasn't too high of a flame.
Yea, her and fire weren't so good. It was too pretty!! Best keep her wand hidden or something so she wasn't tempted.
Writing down the steps taken in her notebook, Evelyn suddenly realized that Destiny also mentioned something about keeping her book away from the fire, which immediately made her check to see if it was ON fire. Nope. No it was good. A little too close to the flame though. "Thanks..." she mumbled, pushing the book away from the pretty orange and blue light before laying her quill down on the table.
Pfft. Darn book, being in the way... Quote:

Double checking Patroclus ensured both his work space and his cauldron, were spotlessly clean, he needed to get this potion right. “Incendio” speaking the incantation, the fire leapt from his wand to beneath his cauldron, which had his pumpkin juice laying in it, ready to be simmered.
He then filled him his Parchment, CORRECTLY SPOILER!!: Patroclus’ Parchment

She poured i gallon of pumpkin juice in her cauldron and lit the burner, "Incendio."she commanded pointing her wand at the now lit burner. She turned it down a bit since it looked too high to bring it to a simmer. Quote:

Simon looked at what he had done before turning the fire to a low simmer. Quote:

She took a whiff of the pumpkin juice brewing... She didn't like the taste of the stuff, but the scent was simply intoxicating...
"Second step." She said with a coldness to her voice, "With the wooden spoon from your basic potions kit, take the goowey mucus and stir it into the juice. Do not touch it with your hands... 1. you will need a special solution to get it to come off, and I don't have any. You will need to go to the nurse's office. and 2. it'll taint your potion, and your hair won't come back." She said and smirked. She liked the bald kids... they were less... impertinent.
