Pinky out, because she was indeed a proper princess, the first year took a sip of her tea as the professor sat down. When the woman asked about what potion she had questions about, the cup was placed back down on the saucer.

"Claudine called it the Polyjuice Potion," the Slytherin responded. There was a brief moment of silence before she started pouring out her thoughts. "Ever since the start-of-term feast, I've been thinking about it and ... Does it hurt? It didn't look fun when Headmaster Rosier melted back into himself." She had more questions of course, but figured asking one at a time would be best.

Ah, the polyjuice potion. Exactly the potion Shreya figured Cornelia would be asking about. Several students had been curious lately, and she didn't blame them. She had been fielding more and more questions about it during lessons, although she had to be careful in her answers. With the Inquisitorial Squad watching her every move, she didn't want to say something that would put anyone at risk.

"Claudine is correct," Shreya replied, trying to figure out the best way to discuss the complex brew with a first year. For some reason, polyjuice potion was the one potion that students were most drawn to. Shreya wanted to be honest in her responses, but she didn't want to give anyone any ideas. There were too many dangers involved, which was precisely why students were not allowed to brew it themselves at Hogwarts. "The polyjuice potion can be a bit....uncomfortable, yes."

Shreya tried not to shudder as she recalled the horrors of the Opening Feast. How disturbing it must have been for the students to see their so-called Headmaster transforming before their eyes. "The transformative effects are typically more severe the longer the potion has been in use. So I imagine Mr. Rosier did experience quite a bit of discomfort." Given the fact that he had been polyjuiced as Trent for quite a long time, the man must have been in some pain—even if he didn't show it. Not that Shreya felt bad for him in the slightest.

She considered going on a tangent about the polyjuice potion. It was quite a fascinating brew, and she had a lot to say about it. But she figured she would let Cornelia ask her questions first.
