Ethan nodded at Alec's suggestion.
"Yeah, that's a good idea," he said, making specific notes about the stirring in his journal. Being specific was always a good idea in experimentation.. then you could tell what did or didn't work. He grinned over at Alec as he seemed to like his idea for naming the potion. He thought it was sort of catchy at least, even if it did take a minute to get your mouth around the words.
Oh, did it smell better? Ethan moved his face a little closer and inhaled the fumes coming off the potion. A hint of chocolate and it completely offset the petrol smell. Awesome! At least they knew that part worked. Then he turned back to Alec as he question the wand waving/spell casting step.
"Well.." he began slowly as he glanced back at the potion.
"I don't think just waving it over the potion would really do anything.." There had to be an incantation for spells to actually work, right?
"Um, maybe we could use a spell that I've done with other healing potions?" He looked at Alec to see if he'd agree before continuing. He waved his wand in an X over the cauldron and said,
"Percurus."
He hoped that Alec didn't mind, but he thought that one would be most effective.. though he was right, some potions were done without spells, but most of the healing spells he had done were.
"Yes," he nodded in agreement.
"We should let it cool down now." He pointed his wand at the flame and muttered,
"Finite." That was another one he should work on non-verbally.
"So.. should we test it out?" he asked Alec as he thought over whether or not either of them had any sort of inflammation.
"You can punch me if you want, then we can test it on me.." He wouldn't mind being the guinea pig in their experiment here.. he had far too much respect for and interest in experimentation to be too opposed to trying it out.
