Seeing a Slytherin who did not seem to have a partner yet, he walked towards her with his things. "Hello! Can I be your partner?" Pleeease say yes?

The First Year turned his attention to Professor Newton as he resumed speaking. Oooh, drinking a potion! He could do that. He did not care if it gave him poisonous effects (because he won't die ... right?), as long as he did not have to brew an antidote first. "I can drink the potion first, if you want." He said to the older girl, standing up again. He hoped he appeared brave. As usual, he tried to look on the bright side. He would be able to watch her make the potion and learn, so that he did not fail when it was his turn!
Ilia may have waited a bit long to pick a partner it seemed, they were running down to the wire and now the professor was possibly going to be pairing people up. That didn't concern her...........until she heard Zeke Browne pipe up about not having a partner. For Merlin's sake no! She HAD to have a partner now, no way was she getting stuck with that smug , smarmy, self adoring jerk.

Just then, when she had begun to fret....a baby badger squeaked at her. Could he be her little buddy? Well....why not? At least she got to pick him and not get stuck with someone insufferable. "You certainly can.", she replied gently to the younger boy with a smile. It seemed that she was a Puff magnet....

Did this child just...offer to poison himself for her? Yup, it was a Puff....It did however, make more sense for her to brew first. She had a far higher chance of success, after all. She had several years more experience than he did and she could show him / give him pointers in the brew.....then hopefully the child could do it for himself. Hopefully she would not suffer the effects of whatever the potions professor was subjecting them to for long.... "Come, set up beside me." The sixteen year old patted the space next to her pretty copper cauldron. She....kind of wanted to pat the child on the head and tell him that he was a good boy.....better not.

Ilia gathered herself and walked up to the front, gathering all of the ingredients that would be needed. Bezoars and mistletoe was a rather interesting combination.....
