For the next set of instructions, the Prefect waited three minutes. She noticed the steam and had a mini freak out moment. Multi-colored gaze shot directly over at professor Culloden. He didn't call her out or anything so...it was all okay? Yes? Well, it didn't explode.

Focusing on the peppermint, she chopped it up. She didn't have much time do it, but she efficiently got the job done and added the now chopped peppermint to the mixture. It wasn't instant, but slowly the color of her potion began to gradient from black to grey.

No BOOM. It was okay.

Tearing her gaze from her cauldron, she nodded at Finn. "Sure." He seemed better now, as well as his potion. She still made sure to be on the alert in case he, or any of the Snakes, needed help.

And since they were close to finishing this up, Beverly cast Scourgify on her utensils while listening. She was good at multi tasking so everything Culloden said stuck to her head.

What a cunning little potion this was, wasn't it?

Her lip twitched. Of course it was. Sounded like something a Slytherin would love or at least be intersted in. She wondered...and wondered...and wondered. She might end up getting a dragon by the end of this year. Heh.

As promised, her solution went from grey to white. Beverly sighed with relief and wiped her brow with the back of her arm. It was done. And before she scooped up some of it for Professor Culloden she jotted a few notes down.

Potion: Trust Me-self

Effect: enhances self-confidence and helps drinker persuade others. <--- makes the person arrogant if already confident. Words will still be as sweet as the potion.
(Not manipulate, but persuade in using the correct words.)

A glass is a full dose which will last 5-6 hours.

Beware: if more than one glass a week the drinker will become arrogant and instead of persuasive words they'll be spitting out mocking ones.

Known Ingredients:
- 7 ground scarab beetles
- a handful of lion's neck fur
- two handfuls of fox tail fur
- two tea spoons of salamander blood
- 300 grams of sheep wool
- a sprig of chopped peppermint

Steps:

1. Fill the cauldron with water and light a fire at maximum
2. add scarab beetles without plopping
3. add half of the lion fur
4. Stir clockwise seven times with a metal stirrer
5. Wait for 7 minutes for pewter cauldrons, 5 for brass and 4 for copper. In the meantime, mix sheep wool and fox fur with salamander blood in another bowl. Make sure it's mixed well.
6. Once the time is up, add 4 tea spoons of the mixture
7. Wave your wand while saying "Dominentur"
8. Add the rest of the mixture. The color should turn black
9. Stir clockwise seven times with a metal stirrer
10. Add the rest of the lion fur
11. Wait for 15 minutes for pewter cauldrons, 11 for brass and 3 for copper. The color should gradually become grey
12. Add the chopped peppermint
13. Wait until it's white (takes a few minutes)



"Thanks, Professor Culloden," she chirped after cleaning her area and gathering her belongings. His lessons were her favorite, did he know that?
