“Alright,” she nodded, “this sounds like a good plan” she beamed over at the older girl. She quickly began to arrange the ingredients in accordance to Beezus’ notes, since well, it was easier that way.
“Alright, I’ll fill her up” she nodded and pointed her wand into the cauldron as she cast aguamenti as easily as she could trying to think the spell. It worked. The cauldron filled with water. She was beaming yeah. Cause she had made the cauldron fill with water so well. Pointing her wand below the cauldron she made sure to set the flame so it was low and steady – so the unicorn parts would be able to boil easily.
“Alright lets get the unicorn parts in there and begin working on the jobberknoll feathers” she beamed and began to add in first the unicorn dung – as it was listed in the notes (luckily it smelled much better than mountain troll), and also the other unicorn parts. Letting them come to an even boil.
Beezus watched as Mika filled the cauldron up with water. "
Only about three-fourths, okay?" The brunette knew that her 'Claws were capable and aware enough of their actions but she felt there was still a need for a reminder. When the girl moved to turn up the flame, she went and smoothed out the parchment and read on so she knew what they were to do next.
Unicorn parts. Right. Merlin, her younger Ravenclaw was quick. She waited for Mika to move aside before adding in the strands of unicorn tail hair which she had collected herself. She referred to her parchment AGAIN before moving on. Hmm. "
Can you grind the jobberknoll feathers while I dilute the bubotuber pus?" The mortar and pestle was gently pushed to the girl's side whilst she grabbed a basin and some measuring cups for the dilution.
This was rather neat. With the two of them working together, things were definitely going to run quicker. She wasn't good with Potions. Heck, she was terrible at potions but when people around you were encouraging enough, you begin to develop confidence yourself. Her mother had also taken the time to teach her what she knew during the summer, so Beezus was pretty confident that they were doing the correct things and procedure for this healing potion.
