|  HOLISTIC ACTRESS {X O} EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED
Her cauldron and equipment was already cleaned as well as all of her supplies…it was going to be easy to get everything ready right? Yeah, this potion wasn’t going to be challenging in the least bit.
Taking her scales out and cleaning them for good measure, Mel headed to collect the supplies she didn’t have access to…really, that was a shame because wine wasn’t something she’d want to drink…she’d just want to make it for the potions it was a part of. Returning to her workstation the second year liongirl placed her allotted 100 milliliters of red wine next to her 10 milliliters of prude juice. Reaching into her supply kit she took out two grams of the hairy fungus and mashed it with her mortar and pestle before moving them into a separate empty jar. “Scourgify” she cast cleaning the mortar and again she cast it on the pestle.
This whole potion was going swimmingly right? She hadn’t started brewing it yet but getting the supplies ready wasn’t any more difficult than the few potions she had made in this class before right? Taking out her powdered tortoise shell she carefully weighed it out making sure to only have two grams available. She repeated the process again with the five grams of caterpillar and the singular bats tongue. Still, with both of those she moved on and sliced and diced them accordingly before she put them sliced and diced ingredients into their own little jars to be added to the solution later.
With all of the ingredients ready she moved on and pointed her wand at the base of her cauldron before setting the flame and heating it at a low heat. Adding the prune juice and red wine she slowly raised the temperature just a breath as it would had taken days at the low heat she had originally chosen. Lowering her stirrer into the solution the Gryffindor began to slowly stir the solution in a clockwise motion. The solution didn’t take too long to change as soon there were bubbles forming in the dark purple-brown liquid.
Looking back at the instructions she tried to see what she was supposed to add next. Ah, Hairy fungus she noted and quickly grabbed the little jar of mashed hairy fungus and added it to the solution. Setting her little egg timer for ten minutes she proceeded to sit, wait, and stir the solution. With no one really to talk to as she wanted to keep her mind clear of distractions and focus on making a good potion, she just began to think, to imagine, to paint the world with different imaginary scenes…in her imagination she could do anything, in her mind she had the same abilities that Amelia had…there was more, in her mind they were still there. They hadn’t left her all those years ago. In her mind, she wasn’t alone, she still knew what her mother looked like even though that was clearly a lie. In her mind the world was sunshine and rainbows and no one ever got hurt, no one ever died, but that was a lie and even she knew that.
The ding of the egg-timer was what saved her from the cynical thoughts souring her little not-fully-happy…but almost happy space. Taking the stirrer out she quickly cleaned it as she looked down at the now faded lighter purple-brown solution before adding in the tortoise shell to the solution. Lowering her stirrer back into the solution she continued stirring the solution clockwise for what felt like forever. Her arms, they felt like they were made of lead. The solution was now a creamy color as she continued stirring the solution adding in the caterpillar and bats tongue to the solution she continued again to stir the solution in a clockwise motion for another five minutes. “My arm is tired,” she muttered to herself more than to anyone else as she looked down at her now light creamy green potion. Taking her stirrer from the solution she turned off the flames and continued to clean out all of the jars and things that she had used before cleaning her stirrer once again.
Grabbing her vials from her potions kit she set up a few of them next to her cauldron with her ladles, pipets, and other potion transferring kits. She was ready…and well, India had really helped her with her potions kits. Stretching out she finished cleaning her work station, walked to the sink and washed her hands before returning to the station once more. Setting up her egg timer the Gryffindor took out a book and opened it what! Napoleon is a jerk! She thought to herself as she glared down at her book and continued to read.
