That was easy enough. This whole potion was pretty easy... Theo stirred the potion counter-clockwise, making sure he had his directions correct first. Yep, ready to go. And with his free hand, he picked up the bottle of Jobberknoll blood and tipped it VERY slowly to begin with, cos he wasn't sure how quickly it would pour out. It was quite slow anyway, so he tipped it a bit further.
He smiled at the red circles forming in his cauldron, because that meant he was actually doing it right. Once the whole cup of blood was empty, Theo rested it on the desk and continued stirring.

Those wings and leaves, where were theeeeey? Theo's eyes danced around his batch of ingredients until he spotted them. One at a time would probably be safest. The second year pulled out four Billywig Wings and crushed them into one hand, then he pulled out 3 Belladonna leaves with his OTHER hand and did the same.
Violaaaaa - Theodore sprinkled the contents of both hands into the cauldron and watched it like a hawk. This was going well, he thought.
