Walking into the Potions Final, Sky stared nervously wondering if she'd showed up at the wrong time because she didn't see any of her fellow first years there. Only second years. Checking her schedule again and then the board, she confirmed it was indeed for first and second years; just she was the first one from her class year to arrive. Finding an empty workstation, the young snakette read over her potion card as the first thing and then went to gather all her ingredients to make it easier to complete her task.
Girding potion. For increased stamina and endurance. It shouldn't be TOO complicated and there wasn't a long list of ingredients, making it even better, hopefully. First things first, clean her cauldron; "scourgify", Sky stated firmly. First step done.
Next was to fill the cauldron with four cups water; another easy-peasy step. "Aguamenti," she cast quietly, watching the water stream from her wand. Letting it flow until it seemed to be about four cups - or half way filled cauldron - Sky cast "Finite" to end the spell. Fairy wings. That was kind of weird, but made sense for stamina, because fairies always seemed to fly so effortlessly in Sky's mind, which meant adding them to a potion would surely provide that capacity in the potion...She then cast "incendio" under her cauldron to heat up her potion.
And waited. Two minutes, three minutes, four minutes .... Reading ahead to figure out how much more waiting and not realizing she missed the turquoise shade until her potion was a dark shade of blue. Oops? Hopefully it'd still be okay, as it was still within the blue family...
Adding one measure of doxy eggs, 3 eggs, Sky continued to heat and waited, this time watching more closely. Except as she'd already overheated the fairy wings step, her potion didn't just turn a gorgeous shade of pink that she knew Chloe loved, but rather a deep auburn. Should she keep going? Eh, why not? It shouldn't be bad, right? Dragonfly thoraxes. Toasted. Separating out twenty from the pile, Sky added them one at a time, waiting a second before adding another .... about 16 later, her potion was red! SEE! Auburn wasn't going to be a bad thing, after all.. right? Hopefully.
And now more heating and waiting, ... until her potion turned blue..
