Polyjuice.

“Interesting brewing you're working on, “ he mused absently as he headed away around another aisle abstentiously to grab the missing ingredients in a different corner of the shop. The shopkeeper wasn’t quite sure what to do about the information he had just figured out.

Was it interesting? Jack wouldn’t know. He was rubbish at potions. He couldn’t tell you what half these ingredients were used for, nor did he care. So long as he was paid for his time. What he was good at wasn’t something you’d find in this store. He eyed up the shiny long strands that registered galleon signs in his brain and then reached out and grabbed a ration of the unicorn hair which he tossed into the shopkeeper’s basket as well. ”I’m just running some errands for my sister.” He gave the shopkeeper a smile before walking away.

He took his time looking over the shelves and eventually found the lacewing flies. For the heck of it, he grabbed a bottle of beetles as well. He brought both up to the counter. The bottles landed on the counter with a loud clink. ”So,” he asked leaning on the counter. ”What’s the damage?” He was certain he had enough money to cover everything including the few extra ingredients he had tossed into the basket.
