Transforming the whole body into a dragon WOULD BE cool... but oh well. Not everything was possible. He thought about this question, but couldn't think of any logical reason as to why someone would need to breath fire. "
Was it made just for fun?" That was logical enough for him.
SPOILER!!: Brewing

"The next step is: Add the powdered feather and stir clock wise with a wooden stick until it looks homogenous, then turn the heater to high and add culture of mycosis fungus into your mortar. I advise you wear your gloves before doing that, because mycosis fungus is a parasite that lives on your skin and may leave permanent white stains if not cured in time. The curing process is... hard, to mildly put it, and they cause odour after a while."
Could he scare them enough? Hehe
"Once they are in the mortar, crush them with pestle for thirty seconds or so, add some water on them and shake the mortar a little for them to mix better with water. Then, add them calmly to the potion."
Interestinggggggggg...
Kinda.
It cured you from the flu, though. THAT was impressive. Theo was always suffering with that illness since he had a pretty lame immune system. He grinned because he would definitely volunteer to demonstrate after finishing his potion. Oh, gooooood, it wasn't one of those super long and annoying potions. Theo squinted his eyes at the ingredients list, then pulled out his wand to fill up his cauldron.
"
Scourgify." First of all, of course. "
Aguamenti!" Theo used his favourite spell to fill his cauldron, then stopped when he was 1/3 the way to the top.
Theo went to the front of the classroom to retrieve his feathers, then added them carelessly to the cauldron. He stirred it as he was told, then made a face at the professor. Homogenous? What the heck was that? Oh well, Theo kept on stirring until he felt it was time to stop, and then he turned up the heat high. Easy peasy so far.
Next up was crushing in the mortar time. He pulled up his gloves from his bag then proceeded to add the mycosis fungus into his cleaned mortar. Theo counted thirty seconds like they had been told and crushed it well. He was good at the crushing thing. He dripped a bit of water from the tip of his wand into the mortar (I told you he was good at that spell), then shook it.
Add CALMLY to the potion?
Theo snickered at that, dunno why.
He did his
best to add it calmly. Which took a long time, actually, since Theo was not a careful potion maker.
