Kaiser could only really shrug at Noble's response, then nod. He was... admittedly not following very well. A lot had been said even before his answer, and though Kaiser had reached a stage where he didn't struggle quite as much as he used to when it came to following lectures and the like, there had, of course, been recent setbacks. He did his best to look like he was keeping up, at least, and like he wasn't planning on testing potions on people any time soon. Though that last part was easy, given the fact it was true.

Though he had so far made a vague attempt at writing notes, they were all but useless, and Kaiser gave up on them as a bad job just as the first activity started. He threw down his quill, and pushed it and he parchment away.

Rubbing his forehead with the fingers of his right hand, Kaiser managed to look only slightly overwhelmed at the instructions they had been given. Not even started yet, and his mind had begun drifting. Concentration was a distant memory. Noble had spoken only moments ago, and his words had basically leaked out of Kaiser's ears without making any impression on his brain. He couldn't even remember the right page of the textbook he should have turned to.

Preferring not to draw attention to his predicament, Kaiser did what he knew best, and decided to look busy, and act natural. He went to get himself samples from each of the bottles, as well as some sugar, before returning to his seat. It was at this point that he realised he hadn't made a note of what each of the liquids were, but then it hardly mattered at this point. Kaiser cast a sideways glance at Eiji, who had taken the seat beside him, then back to his array of substances. It crossed his mind that he was probably about to look like a complete idiot to anyone paying close attention, but rather that than make it obvious he'd not been able to grasp those very simple instructions. Anyway, it wasn't like there were actual potions involved. Nothing was liable to go boom just yet.

Pushing the image of an exploding bowl of sugar to the back of his mind, Kaiser just went ahead and sort of... added drops of something to a tube of something else... and watched and waited... while nothing happened. Interesting.
