Asher shrugged. "I'll just be doomed," he said with a sigh as he rested his head on his hands. "Thanks anyway..." he added quickly, since Lana had helped a little bit. However he still didn't understand a clue about how girl's minds worked. All he knew was that they were confusing. Confusing as hell.

Lana felt completely useless. It's not like she's an expert on something like this. She might be a girl, but she doesn't know what it's like to have feelings for a guy you know you shouldn't. "You know, you could always just make love potion or something," Lana joked.

((I'll add in homework later... i g2g just wanted them to come in))
Jessica walked into the potions room and sat down, looking around curiously. She wondered what they would be doing today.
Artemis walked in grinning, as usual, she was in a good mood. She usually is you know.

As the students arrived Millie took the homework and cleared her throat. "For those of you that are here we are seperating into teams this time seeing as the potions we will be making from here on will be more Dangerous. I have chosen the teams and who will be doing what and I expect you to follow it to the letter. Now as soon as your partner has come into the classroom I expect you to take the seat beside them. Once everyone is here we will begin. The teams are on the board."
And with a wave of her wand the following appeared.
Potions Teams: Lesson three
Ginny Weasley[create Draught]-Asher Seagle[Create Anecdote]
Mnemosyne Malfoy[Create Anecdote]-Lana Lee[create Draught]
Melpomene Malfoy[create Draught]-Connor Becker[Create Anecdote]-Conner will have to work alone seeing as Melpomene is not back from the Hospital.
Damien Elliott[Create Anecdote]-Morgan Boot[create Draught]
Kristoff Bergstrom[create Draught]-Cynthia Summer Veneficus[Create Anecdote]
Artemis Moon[Create Anecdote]-Sami Daven[create Draught]
Jasper[create Draught]-Jessica Adams[Create Anecdote]
Teams must create potion and anectdote if there is one. I expect you to reserch to find any Anecdote possible and not to dawdle in the classroom.

Kris groaned as he saw his name appear beside Summer's. Was his sister really that made? Aparantly she had to be to pair him with that girl. He looked over at Syne and muttered. "What in bloody hell did I do to deserve this?" just low enough so only Syne could hear.

Morgan groaned as she saw the assignment. It would have to be one where we worked together she thought in annoyance. She looked around the room. I wonder how I am supposed to figure out which one is Damien
Syne growled her fustration as she read the assignment. What is she thinking, pairing me with Lana? She thought to herself Is she trying to test my patience?
Syne laughed at Kris's comment and muttered darkly "I don't know what you did, but I think she is still mad at me for hiting Lana with that slasher curse last week. I still have to serve my detention for that one." She grumbled and picking up her bag moved over to where Lana was standing with Asher. She saw the new girl looking rather confused and quickly scanning the board "Damien isn't here yet." She told the girl quietly. "but I'll point him out when he arrives."
Morgan just nodded her thanks and continued to sit where she was. If this boy's partner was here he could get up and move. She didn't have anywhere to go yet, anyway.
((ok so I am too lazy to switch accounts. What do you say Lana? Do Syne and Lana try to kill each other? LOL You might as well have Hermione heal Lana that scene in the owlery was the same day as the last potions class, so if you are going to have her seriously hurt and in the hospital wing she couldn't be in this lesson, but whatever. LoL it doesn't really matter to me.))

Ginny walked into the classroom, panting. "Sorry I'm late professor, it won't happen again, I promise." She dropped the homework on the teachers desk.
A) Why it is important to check your ingredients for possible contamination before you use them?
To make sure that they will not cause an adverse effect reaction that could be potentially harmful or hazardous for the safety of yourself or the people around you. Also, in some cases they do not cause adverse reactions but they can make the potion you are brewing turn out wrong, meaning that it does something completely different to what it is intended to do, or alternatively, they could just not function at all. Adverse reactions could mean an explosion, or anything harmful that a properly-brewed potion would not normally do.
B) Why it is important to add the correct ingredients and follow the directions exactly?
To avoid said adverse reactions and to make sure that the potion functions in the way it is supposed to. Adding wrong ingredients or doing things out of order effects both your safety and the quality of the potion you make.
She wasn't quite sure what else she could write on the second question, but thought that it would be okay nonetheless. Sighing, she took a seat and looked at the board. I'm paired with... Asher Seagle. He's that Ravenclaw boy that hangs around with all those Slytherin girls... Hopefully he isn't anything like his little friends.

((Is your convo, Lana and Asher, about her over yet? Good think so.. If not then Meh, she's entering anyway.)) Summer strolled into the classroom, glanced around as she was possible 5 minutes late. She strolled up to the teacher's desk with ease, as she flung her homework onto the desk. Her eyes scanned the board as she suspected that the Draught was something like Draught of the Living Dead or Draught of Peace. She gave a groan as she noticed her name and her partner, "You got to be kidding me... Why do I have to work with a dunderhead?" she asked herself as she walked over to the Gryffindor. As if it wasn't bad enough that she was partnered with this loser, she also had to create the Antidote for it. And she always preferred to create the harming potion, especially as it was Draught of Living Dead. Which was one of her favourite potions, the antidote for it, however, was something that she didn't know as well. She glared at the gryffindor as she reached him and gave him a snarl, "You better not totally ruin this." she muttered threateningly to him. A) why it is important to check your ingredients for possible contamination before you use them.Well, like one of the Malfoy twins demonstrated to the class last lesson, it would be disasterous for something like that to occur. Funny cause it was just Gryffindors yet terrible if it was anyone else. Anyway, you should also check for possible contamination as if you don't then adding a bad ingredient could cause horrible effects. This would be even worse if the potion didn't blow and seemed normal, but when the user drank it, it harmed or even killed them. The Malfoys were lucky that no one was killed but that could be a possilibity if not checked properly.B) Why it is important to add the correct ingredients and follow the directions exactly.Well drinking a potion that seems normal but wasn't made correctly, could inflict harm or even death upon you. The potion could blow up and cause harm, or just waste a lot of time and ingredients. To understand the simmering beauty of potions, you must follow the instructions.

Artemis handed in her homework with Jessica behind her...
A)Why it is important to check your ingredients for possible contamination before you use them? In case, like the Gryffindor girl, your ingredients are contaminated. That can cause serious reactions. That can even lead to possible death. Especially if the potion was brewed incorrectly, which is dangerous already. That can cause serious side effects.
B) Why it is important to add the correct ingredients and follow the directions exactly? The same as above. Incorrect brewing can cause disasterous results and harm to those in the classroom and the school. Serious side effects can happen.
Tom strolled into the classroom and said, "Sorry I'm late, I just arrived at the school..."

((Alright, Synej, I'll just pretend I got better, from the hospital in this class. But, I'm leaving in a few days, so don't expect me to post alot soon.))
Lana couldn't believe her eyes to who she was partnered up to. She nearly died when Syne and her met last time in the owlery. When Syne moved over to sit next to her, she actually scooted her chair over a bit closer to Asher, crowding him. When Summer entered the classroom, she knew the conversation with Asher ended.

Summer caught Lana's eye and smiled at her, smiling a pained one. She motioned with her hands the annoyance that this new partnering was going to cause. She would of rather been with Lana or Asher, but she was struck with the one person that she didn't want to be with. Shrugging, she wondered how he'd cope with the Draught.

"Thats fin. You can partner with Connor Becker seeing as he is without a pertner." She noticed Lana's unease around Syne and frowned. She decided it best to pull those two aside and explain why she had paired them. "Miss Lee and Miss Malfoy could I see you at my desk for a moment."

Kris glared at Summer. "And just when have I ever fouled up any of my assignments?" He asked haughtily. "If you recall it was not my potion that exploded last time and I don't need you telling me what to do." He was irritated that she would even say something like that.
Connor looked at the boy that had just entered. He had hoped that he would be able to work alone but seeing as that was not the case he got out his Book and started to research for an antidote.
((OOC: Yay! I was worried Connor would have no one to work with! Anyway Tom will be making the draught while Connor makes an antidote.))

Summer smirked cooly, "Whatever." she said to the boy's irritation that seemed to only amuse her further. She flipped open her book in search of the useless antidote. The cure of the greatest sleeping potion ever created was something unknown to her, but if someone asked her to make the Draught then she could do so without the book. "Guess your sister is still pretty pissed with you..." she said cooly.

Kris got out his potions book and looked up the ingredients, determind to get this over with as soon as possible. he had just pulled out the ingredients when he heard Summer speak.
Guess your sister is still pretty pissed with you
"Like I care if she is pissed off at me or not. See that's what you and Lana seem to not get, My sister and I don't care for eachother. I'm sick of her treating me like a baby at home and she's probably fed up with my defying her, not that I care." His face had a sour look to it. "I'm fed up with my whole bloody family."
