Taught by Professor Adalaide Whitethorne
Monday :: Block 9 :: 11:00 PM - 11:45 PM
xxxx× × ×xxxxThe Lessonxxxx× × ×xxxx
Potions (Latin potio, 'beverage') are magical mixtures commonly brewed in cauldrons and used to create a number of effects on the drinker. Potions range in effects and nature and in difficulty as well. Potions are brewed from ingredients with magical properties. Potions can be used as medicine, lethal poison, or give the drinker any effect from strength enhancement to immunity to flames. Potions are not necessarily used by drinking, as some can be applied by physical contact or create an effect simply by being created. Potions is a core class and subject taught at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In this class, students learn the correct way to brew potions. They follow specific recipes and use various magical ingredients to create the potions, starting with simple ones and moving to more advanced ones as they progress in knowledge.xxxx× × ×xxxxThe Classroomxxxx× × ×xxxx The Potions Classroom is located in one of the large dungeons in Hogwarts Castle. It is large enough to allow at least twenty students to work. In one corner of the room stands a basin into which ice-cold water pours from a gargoyle's mouth, while in another is a student supply cupboard. There is also a blackboard on which the Potions master can write the class's instructions. Years four through seven are taught by Adalaide Whitethorne. The dungeon is typically known for being exceptionally cold, but Professor Whitethorne attempts to keep it a bit cozier than some of her predecessors through charms. Likewise, the typically glum classroom has been redecorated, with floating candles for light and to give the place a warmer feel to it, and various splashes of warm colors here and there through the use of tapestries and knick knacks.

spaceAdalaide was slightly less nervous for this lesson than she had been Monday night, if only because she reasoned that her first lesson hadn't gone horribly. No major catastrophes, that was good. She figured that after she had the first week under her belt, she'd be a lot more confident. Of course, the worry over being discovered increased ever so slightly with each year, since she could only assume that, the older they were, the more observant they would be. And these were seventh year students, so they posed the highest risk. But it wasn't as though she had a flask of blood in her desk. No, just an assortment of blood pops, which could easily be thought to be cherry or some other red-colored flavor. Incidentally, she had an assortment of other flavors as well, in case anyone said something about it. Thankfully, she could differentiate between the actually-cherry flavored ones by scent easily enough.
spaceThe blonde smoothed her skirt as she stood to start the lesson, hoping she'd make a good first impression. If the students liked her, rumors were much less likely to fly. "Evening, everyone! I'm Professor Adalaide Whitethorne. I assume you all know one another well enough by now, so I won't bother with any sort of lengthy introductions or anything like that. If everyone could just stand up, give me your name and house, we'll be done with it." She hoped she could keep the names straight, but reasoned that it shouldn't be overly difficult if she paid close attention. "I'd also like to request that, just for these first couple of weeks, if you could try to keep in the same seats, since it'll make it easier for me to associate names with faces."
spaceOnce the introductions were out of the way, she waved her wand, and a set of instructions appeared on the board. "As you all know, obviously this is Seventh Year Potions, your final year of study before you take your NEWT exams. This year will be focused on reviewing information from previous years to ensure that you are ready for your exams. This week we'll be focusing on lessons taught in years One and Two." She paused a moment, glancing over her shoulder to check and ensure the information on the board was correct. She wasn't as familiar with it, given that she didn't teach years one through three. "For review, we will be having an open discussion about the lessons taught, as well as brewing one potion from the curriculum list, without use of the textbook to help guide you. Feel free to ask questions if you need to, either of myself or your classmates. At the end of class, bottle a sample of your potion, and give it to me with your name and house." The blonde had to admit, she was a little wary of this particular lesson; asking people to brew potions without instruction could always lead to any number of catastrophes. But, these were NEWT level students, after all. When she'd been in her seventh year, she could have brewed any of the potions listed on the board blindfolded. She had to assume her students were at least capable of doing so without their books.

Late night in Potions class was not the way Dani would have chosen to spend a Friday night, especially since the next day would usually be spent practicing for matches, but such was life, and she wasn't particularly happy getting yet another new Potions teacher with NEWTs coming up. Dani decided to make the best of things, though she was hopeful seeing the warm touches the new professor added to the classroom. Candles floated in the air, and tapestries covered the cold walls of the dungeon.
When given the chance, Dani figured it was best to try preparing a potion, without having a book in front of her. She'd been studying over the summer, so now would be a good oppourtunity to see how well she memorized her recipes. She could easily imagine being called upon to cook up a healing potion in the course of her chosen occupation, without having recourse of getting a Potions book out to read up first.
Dani got up and stood before the table, and began pulling out ingredients, assembling them in stages, as she quietly recited the list needed to create a Wiggenweld Potion. She counted out the Chizpurfle fangs, bits of the Wiggenweld tree, and added the sprig of mint, before loading them into the mortar to be finely ground up. Five measures of the resultant mash were put in her cauldron, along with two drops of Flobberworm Mucus, before cooking the brew over a low heat for a minute. As the last second ended, she added the five drops of Boom Berry Juice, stirred seven times counter-clockwise, before adding a stewed Mandrake, and three measures of Powdered root of Asphodel to the mixture. After waving her wand, Dani knew she'd have a bit of a wait, plenty of time to ask questions of her teacher while she assembled the next stages of her potion.
"Professor, what other uses are there for the Wiggenweld Potion, aside from being useful for awakening somebody from a magically induced slumber?" As she talked, her hands moved with surety toward the ingredients, counting out ten Lionfish spines, and a sprig of Wolfsbane, to be loaded into the cauldron at the appointed time, along with a Unicorn horn, which she ground almost to dust in her mortar, before measuring out the two measures which she required. When the wait time was over, Dani could be heard reciting the instructions in a low tone, feeding ingredients into her cauldron in turn, before stirring three times, and waving her wand to complete the process.
Dani was quite tired by the time she was filling the vial with her handiwork, but she smiled for Professor Whitethorne when she presented the stoppered and labelled vial to her for inspection. "Well, I hope I pass the audition," she said, though she was confident she'd managed to do a good job, wanting to make a good first impression.

OOC: Alarms will ring for eternity
The waves will break every chain on me
My bones will bleach
My flesh will flee
So help my lifeless frame to breathe
And God knows I'm not dying but I bleed now
And God knows it's the only way to heal now
With all the blood I lost with you
It drowns the love I thought I knew

We can fight our desires...
But when we start making fires;
We get ever so hot,
Whether we like it or not!
They say we can love who we trust,
But what is love without lust?
Two hearts with accurate devotion...
What are feelings without emotions?

SLYTHERIN │ SEVENTH YEAR │ BLOOD TRAITOR
Morven waltzed into her last class of the week late, and because it was Potions, while she didn't quite radiate regret and shame, she did have the sense to keep her head down and not waste much time getting to her seat. The late time didn't bother her; by now she was very used to being up at all odd hours, and her sleep schedule hadn't been the same in years, anyways. Still, it was a bit annoying, if only because her other two classes on Fridays were at nine and one, respectively. That was a series of gaps where instead of being able to relax and change out of her uniform, she still had to get ready to later go to another class.
What was up with the scheduling this year, anyways? She knew Ghost and Ghoul Studies was often taught at night as well, but it was a class about ghosts and ghouls. It made sense. Potions did not. The dungeons were practically pitch black at this time of night, aside from the torches, and she wondered how non-Slytherins managed to not get hopelessly lost in them. The professor was blonde and tiny and pale in a way that reminded Morven of one of her old porcelain dolls, and she could only hope that didn't mean she was fragile around teenagers as well. A few years ago, she wouldn't have cared, but she understood the importance of her doing well in this class better now, and she was mature enough to want a teacher that could actually teach.
She'd come in at the tail end of the spiel, but did catch the part about brewing a potion from the curriculum. Fine, at least they were doing something, but what to make? She had zero interest in showing off, she wasn't desperate, but she didn't want to do something ridiculously easy, either. Morven picked one from the year before; the Elixir to Induce Euphoria, which really did sound sketchy as hell, but most potions were. Peppermint, shrivelfig, stir. She waited until it was cerulean. Simmer.... Cerulean faded into yellow. Porcupine quills, blue again, simmer... Now it was royal purple. Castor beans, simmer... a rich chocolate brown. More shrivelfig, now bright pink, simmer again, pumpkin orange, add the wormwood... Sunny yellow. She bottled it, scribbled her name and house on it, and left it on the professor's desk.
I'm going in for the kill...
I'm doing it for a thrill...
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand,
And not let go of my hand.
I had my hopes out on the line;
Well, they'll be ready for you in time.
If you leave them out too long,
They'll be withered by the sun. |

spaceAdalaide was feeling much more confident this week, which she supposed only made sense. She'd met all her students, at least recognized most of their faces, knew a couple of names. More to the point, she didn't think she'd aroused any suspicion thus far, which was good.

Dani was not as awake as she would prefer to be when going into her Potions class, but after putting in extra study time after dinner, and not being able to catch a nap before class, such was the way things went. She was also concerned all these night class were bad for maintaining any sort of patrol schedule, and gave students more incentive to wander the castle at all hours. Now, it was nothing to return to the dorms in the wee hours of the night, just because class ran late.
Still, she was one of the first to arrive for her Friday night class, even if she did only want to get to bed so she could rest up for quidditch practice. Dani started work on a Wit-Sharpening Potion, which she figured would be a good one to make, and wouldn't take half the night to create it. She was fine mixing in the Ginger Root, Armadillo Bile, and the Ground Scarab Beetles, and the potion shifted colours from green to blue to red, it was after this she faltered a bit. After a pause to wrack her brain, she finally remembered to add more Armadillo Bile to her potion, causing it to turn yellow. Once she was past this hump, it was simply a matter of adding Ginger Root again, and additional Armadillo Bile before allowing it to simmer for the required ten minutes. The final step was adding the last bit of Ginger Root needed to get the potion to turn a colour of deep purple.
While she worked, she asked her teacher, and the class at large, "So what do you suppose is the downside of using a Wit-Sharpening Potion. Can somebody start to have a reliance on it, and what would be the possible problems associated with that?" Dani hoped like heck she'd done a competent job, as she ladled a portion of her results into a vial which was already labeled with her name and House on it. "Personally, I should think one of the drawbacks would have to be some absolutely wicked headaches."

spaceAdalaide watched as her new fourth years entered the classroom, seated behind the desk, what appeared to be a cherry lollipop in her mouth. On the desk, to lessen any suspicion concerning the 'treat', she had a jar of similar looking lollipops, of various flavors, with a small sign indicating that, should they be inclined, students were free to take one. It served a dual purpose; making her own seem less notable, and hopefully endearing herself to the students.
spaceOnce everyone was settled, she waved her wand, and a set of instructions appeared on the board. "Welcome back, everyone.

 Location: Potions - Friday @ 11:00pm
Potions class was the last class Mira had in the week and it was one of the latest. However, Mira had spent most of her time studying her potions without the use of the book. She’d do the steps and then see if she was doing them right in the right order. The more she practiced the better she was getting she found. After hearing they were instructed to work on the potions from third and fourth year, Mira looked to the list. She decided to work on a sleeping draught. It was one of the more complexed on the list.
Thinking about the ingredients, Mira remembered she needed standard ingredient, lavender, flobberworm mucus, and valerian sprigs. Grabbing all the ingredients for her potion she took them back to her desk. ‘It started with lavender... paste if I remember right…’ She thought before taking four sprigs of it and two measures of standard ingredients, crushing it. Once she had a creamy past in her mortar, she moved onto the next part. Taking the disgusting flobberworm mucus she put two blobs into her cauldron along with two measures of the standard ingredient. ‘Gentle heat…’ Mira reminded herself as she gently heated her potion for thirty seconds. Finally adding three measures of the crushed mixture she made earlier, she then waved her want.
Leaving it for the total of seventy minutes, Mira thought about what she had left to do. It was pretty simple from what she remembered after this. Taking another two measures of the standard ingredient and adding it to her cauldron she then heated it on high for a minute. Taking her final ingredient, valerian sprigs, she added four to her potion. Stirring clockwise seven times, Mira then finished the potion off with a wave. Looking at it the potion was a bright purple. If she remembered that was the right color. Bottling a vial of her potion she labeled it before handing it in, and cleaning up her mess. With class over it was time for bed…

But, I know where you belong...

spaceAdalaide watched as her new fourth years entered the classroom, seated behind the desk, what appeared to be a cherry lollipop in her mouth. On the desk, to lessen any suspicion concerning the 'treat', she had a jar of similar looking lollipops, of various flavors, with a small sign indicating that, should they be inclined, students were free to take one. It served a dual purpose; making her own seem less notable, and hopefully endearing herself to the students.
spaceOnce everyone was settled, she waved her wand, and a set of instructions appeared on the board. "Welcome back, everyone. As you all know, obviously this is Seventh Year Potions, your final year of study before you take your NEWT exams. This year will be focused on reviewing information from previous years to ensure that you are ready for your exams. This week we'll be focusing on lessons taught in years One and Two." She paused a moment, glancing over her shoulder to check and ensure the information on the board was correct. She wasn't as familiar with it, given that she didn't teach years one through three. "For review, we will be having an open discussion about the lessons taught, as well as brewing one potion from the curriculum list, without use of the textbook to help guide you. Feel free to ask questions if you need to, either of myself or your classmates. At the end of class, bottle a sample of your potion, and give it to me with your name and house." The blonde had to admit, she was a little wary of this particular lesson; asking people to brew potions without instruction could always lead to any number of catastrophes. But, these were NEWT level students, after all. When she'd been in her seventh year, she could have brewed any of the potions listed on the board blindfolded. She had to assume her students were at least capable of doing so without their books.
