*nods satisfied*
"Right, that's some plants that were used. Of course, you would know that, your family is cultivating magical plants."

*Shoots his hand in the air, wanting to outdo the other boy*
*Doesn't wait to be recognised*
I bet opium could be used in place for belladonna. It gives a feeling similar to flying... from what I've heard, anyway... Professor.
*Pushes away a loose lock of his hair, looking almost too intently at Lucretia*

*raises his hand quickly, just as a formality*
On the contrary, opium and belladonna are known to be antidotes of each other. They'd likely react very differently in the mixture.
*is smug*

**smiles shyly at Leo, wishing she were closer to him**
**looks at Julian, who is very near and sighs, trying desperately not to compare Leo and Julian**
**flips quietly through her textbook**

*glances quickly at Selene, though his expression is unreadable*
*waits for the teacher's input*

*drifts off when she hears the word 'flying', recalling with horror how sick she was when they took the plane to a holiday destination. Surely any kind of magical flying would be just as bad.*
*mutters* I don't like flying

*Whispers to Selene, his gaze still glued on Lucretia*
What's her name?

*is surprised about the activity in this class and looks suspiciously at the peppermint candle*
"They are effectively antagonists, and it depends on the mixture. You can just balance the two ingredients out to get a better result. And Julian proposed to replace belladonna with opium, that would be just as good for the so called 'flying'."
*gazing back at Julian once more, wondering if he might know that from personal experience*

*Appears superior, catches Lucretia's look, and smiles insincerely in return*
*To Selene*
Thank you.

*wonders at why the other Slytherin boy seems so eager to prove himself*
*leans back in his chair casually and waits to see how this all ties into the lesson*

*coughs loudly, though is sounds quite like an actual cough, and leans over again toward Alison*
Slytherins aren't usually this active; they must be tryin' to rack up points early this year.

"Kai!"
*gets more annoyed with the Hufflepuffs by the minute*
"I'd say it's difficult enough for Alison, but it won't get better if you continue to talk her ear off! And Alison, please take notes, potions is new for you and it's not in your books."
*addresses all students now, grinning slightly*
"Now, according to the legends, where was this ointment applied, and why?"

There are some pleasant effects if you do it the right way. Wasn't it applied to your co--?

"Erm...yes, but could you please word that more ...unspecific?"
