Months later and Kaiser still wasn't totally sure how on earth he had managed that Exceeds Expectations in his Potions OWL. It was apparently not a mistake, so he'd either completely fluked it or only just about scraped it, or both. Not that he doubted his abilities in the actual brewing, but the theory? Essays? Properties of ingredients? The importance of clockwise versus anti-clockwise stirring depending on the situation? Lost on him.

Except that apparently it wasn't, according to his OWL grade. Wild.

Reflecting on this, as he did most times he headed to this particular lesson, Kaiser entered the Potions classroom looking the complete opposite of bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. So, basically, the same as he looked every other day.

"Professor," he mumbled his customary one-word greeting, as he took a place at one of the work benches. Kaiser eyed the materials at the front of the class, and couldn't stop himself from pulling a face. Had he brought his cauldron along for nothing? Was Noble springing a last minute theory lesson on them? Or were they maybe brewing something to do with whatever that clear liquid was? Maybe it was invisible ink or something.

Or maybe this was for real a theory lesson, in which case... ugh.
