>>6151524And now bursting at the seems and content, Macy and you made it over to the Potions classroom to get started on some brews to help you see in the dark later that night. It was a simple enough recipe, one you had learned back in 4th year and promptly forgot after it was tested over. Your little adoptive sis had you helping with ingredient prep, giving tips as you went. Stood behind you at one point ant took your knife hand into her grasp to show you a better way to hold it and mince dried lightning bugs quickly.
It was kind of funny. Macy was pretty comfortable around you; let you touch her without permission and even wanted you to hold her on occasion but she rarely initiated so much closeness on her own and you think she kind of had if fly over her head how it might look as she pressed close behind you and gently guided your motions. You weren’t going to complain, though. She was soft, smelled nice in her new perfume, and it was fantastic to see her not even thinking about her hang-ups while helping you. Warmed your heart around the ice stuck in it, really, to hear how excited she was when she lectured some on her favorite subject and danced around the potions station.
The Cat’s-Eye Potion was pretty simple all things considered but did take a bit of time to simmer; because of the extra help you would have time to brew up a second simple one before needing to clear out of the classroom.
>Jenn gains a +1 from helping! Total is +1!>Macy has gained a +2 from her extra practice for her club during the week, bringing her to a +12!>Jenn gains a small additional bonus when studying Potions with Macy until she reaches +10 because of how close they are and how well she and Macy work together!“This was fun, Jenn! I know Potions aren’t your favorite things, but you did really well!”, Macy chirped out after setting the stirrer to automatic. “We should have time to brew up something else quick, too; I was thinking Girding Potions, since I used the last I had when you blew a spider up all over us.”
“Hey! You helped blow it up! But… that should be okay, I think. You still have a good number of Wiggenwelds and are really dead set on not letting us make something “fun”.”
“Hey! I don’t want to break the Professor’s trust! She is really nice and getting to use this place after hours is a privilege, not a right.”
“Fine, fine. But… I kind of had a thought. So Girding potions pep you up, give you energy, right? What if we combined them with another thing like that? It would work even better, right?”, you say conspiratorially while fishing around in your pouch
“Umm, maybe? Modifying recipes is hard, but I think I could maybe figure something out. What were you thinking of, Jenn?”
“Of something like this.”, you say as you pull out a small baggie filled with white powder you had been keeping around for the past several weeks following the race with Fuck-Boy.
