As soon as she retreated--though she had to admit, stunning it was also a brilliant idea--Léa checked her watch. It was supposed to boil for FIVE minutes, and she was exact in such details. She sat down on the floor without any reservations this time - funny what people would do when in need, nodded at her friend, and scanned the arena with her eyes too for something of use. There was nothing to be useful for squeezing. She was assigned Ravenclaw for a reason, though. She wasn't discouraged by this detail at all, and simply removed her training shoes. She had her socks to protect her feet getting cut, though she honestly doubted there was something to cut her feet. She walked to the aloe without speaking - he had eyes as well as a brain, and obviously she was going to squish aloe between her shoes - and grabbed the aloe. She walked back to the cauldron, eyes on the watch.

"One of uz should hold ze aloe while ze ozzer presses ze shoes," she explained. If he chose to press the shoes, they were still where she had been sitting. "We need ten drops." Just to make sure he remembered it correctly too.
