WAIT WAIT WAIT. STOP STOP STOP.

Natalia had always been a slowpoke; she hadn't even cleaned her cauldron when the professor announced the next steps. Natalia had been too busy learning the new incantation!

This was why she was never as successful in potions; what takes others a minute to do, it takes Natalia ten.

*SIGH*

"Scourgify!" That was the spell for cleaning the cauldron, right? After a summer with no practice, her memory was starting to grow a little fuzzy.

Alright, now that the cauldron was glimmering to show off its cleanness, it was time to add water. "Aquamenti!" Natalia definitely remembered that one; it was too commonly-used. Seeing that the water had filled the cauldron just a little bit more than it should have, Natalia simply... ignored it. It was just a teeeeeny-weeeeny more. It shouldn't have much of an effect, right?

"Apto Pressura!" Natalia applied the newly-learnt spell with few troubles.

"Incendio!" A little spark ignited at the bottom of the cauldron. The process was slow, allowing Natalia to hop up and down in her spot impatiently before she had to pay attention to the thermometer. 85 degrees... 90 degrees... come on YOU'RE SLOWER THAN MY GRANDMA... 100 degrees... HOORAY!...

Natalia beamed proudly (not that anyone could see it, of course) as if she just had battled victory over a large troll.

Pushing her face mask closer to her nose, Natalia was ready to proceed with the next few steps.

SPOILER!!: Notes
