Giving no regard for the state of his suit, the man scooped up as many as his arms could carry and hurried back towards Jane. Several glasses fell and broke on the floor before them...but perhaps that was not the worst of things. They could make a puddle and then lay in it! Therefore oops ... but not entirely oops ... Airey tipped glass upon glass and poured the liquid on to the floor for Jane to work with and end their torture of being so close to the water and yet so far!

Not wanting to confront his department head outright, he thought perhaps playing along might get him some answers.
Jane was by now on her knees on the floor and, having pulled out her wand (from somewhere in her billowy skirt), was feverishly murmuring incantations over the growing puddle on the floor, which was by now a murky grey as the different colors of the drinks blended into a discolored mess. She had managed to isolate a very small circle of clear liquid which appeared to be water, but it was a very laborious process. "Too long, this is taking too long!" she cried in frustration. Suddenly a thought struck her and she looked up at Airey and Damian. "Ice!" Is there any ice at the bar? For the drinks? Because when ice melts it turns into...turns into..." She was so excited she couldn't even finish her statement.
