"Of course I remember," he said, "have you decided what potion you want?"
His own eyes flicking back to the parchment, Toby unfolded it and looked through the list that was written on it again.
"I... don't really know," he admitted, and pulled an indecisive face as he stared at the parchment.
"See, I'd like to brew that De-Aging one, 'cause that sounds fun to brew and fun to test out, too, right?" Toby glanced up to check for a reaction.
"But it looks sorta easy compared to... well... the Polyjuice Potion. That looks way more challenging, and I'd like to give that a go, and it would be best to do that with you, as you're a pro and all. And then try the other one on my own one day." He wasn't trying to flatter Culloden or anything. Even if Toby were the type to make it a habit of flattering his professors, he and Culloden were past that point. Nah. Just stating facts, really.
"What d'you reckon?" Just a roundabout way of saying 'the Polyjuice Potion', really.
But then, Toby wouldn't really be Toby if he didn't get to the point only after a whole bunch of rambling, now would he?
Still, that De-Aging Potion sounded fun. He was determined to brew and test it, one day.
