Marigold finished cleaning her cauldron FULLY (she didn't want her potion to disappear) before looking at her notes.

Text Cut: Notes

She filled her cauldron up, but accidentally went to about one-half instead of one-third. WOOPS. She looked around to see if anyone noticed, then picked her cauldron up and poured a little onto the sleeve of her robe. She poured a little more out then replaced the now-correct amount of water-filled cauldron to her desk.

Next was the goose feathers. She stirred the feathers into the potion clockwise for another minute and then stopped when it looked mixed enough. Glancing at her notes, she turned the heater all the way to high. She grinned at her potion before moving to the next step.

PARASITES!?!?!? Marigold scrunched her nose in disgust as she put the parasites into her mortar and pestle. She then really OBLITERATED THEM (well, ground them) into a thin dust. Moving on, she poured water into the bowl and shook it. She picked the bowl up and (holding it far away from her) put it into the potion as slowly as she could, though the last bit slid in together.

More stirring. Marigold stirred the potion seven times (clockwise again) while looking around. It seemed like she was still a bit behind the other students, but she was fine and moving forward as quickly as she could without ruining the potion anyway. Once she finished stirring, she turned the heater off and let the potion cool, looking at her watch.

Once the five minutes were up, she was ready for the fire crab. Putting the crab onto a SPOON (?) she gently lowered it into the potion and below the surface. Now for more stirring. One clockwise, one counterclockwise, one clockwise, one counterclockwise,, one clockwise... She repeated the stirring for the twelve times needed, then removed the spoon and put it on a tissue. Now for the next instructions!

Text Cut: Notes Potion progress • 3 goose feathers (chopped WELL that they look like powder) • 5 square centimetres of parasites (mycosis fungus) • Roughly 2 square centimetres fire-crab shell (prepared) • One fire slug • 8 drops of salamander blood • Some flobberworm mucus (depends on how much rigidity one wants) 1. Fill your cauldron 1/3 with water. 2. Add powdered goose feather. Stir clockwise until it looks homogenous and then turn the heater to high. 3. Get your pestle and mortar, crush the parasites for thirty seconds or so, fill the mortar with water, shake it for them to mix better and add it slowly to the potion. 4. Stir counter clock-wise for 7 times and turn off the heater. Let it cool until no vapour is seen. This should take about 5 minutes. 5. Take the fire crab shell but do not add it! Hold it with a metal spoon, lower it nicely into the potion just inside the surface—make sure it doesn’t splash water AT ALL—then start stirring 1 time clockwise, 1 time counter clockwise for 12 times in total. Each stir should take about ten seconds for it to spread thoroughly. Once done with stirring, get it out and put it away on a tissue She filled her cauldron up, but accidentally went to about one-half instead of one-third. WOOPS.
