"Alright, raise your hands if you can tell me what Amortentia is" Professor Slughorn announces
After a few beats of silence, Evan raises his hand "Yes, Mr Rosier" Professor Slughorn says, sounding almost relieved to have at least one person volunteer an answer
"Amortentia is a form of love potion, Sir, it smells different for everyone because it smells of what or who you are most attracted to. The potion cannot make you fall in love, but because it reminds you of who or what you are attracted to, it can make you quite giddy" Evan explains
Professor Slughorn beams at him and nods enthusiastically "Excellent, Mr Rosier, ten points to Slytherin" Professor Slughorn praises
"Anyone could have gotten that" Snape comments from somewhere near the back of the room
"If that were the case, Mr Snape, all hands would have been raised, but unless all of your arms have suddenly become invisible, Mr Rosier was the only one with his hand raised, so I find that hard to believe. However, if you wish to prove me wrong, Mr Snape, then I expect you to brew a perfect batch by the end of this lesson because that is what we are doing today" Professor Slughorn replies, and it takes everything in Evan not to flash Snape a smug look, he much prefers not getting punched.
"Now, if you would all be so kind as to turn to pages 75 and 76 in your potions books, you will find the relevant ingredients and instructions needed to brew this potion, and by the end of this lesson I will come and inspect every batch" Professor Slughorn continues.
The class start bustling around the room, getting their cauldrons, knives and chopping boards as well as collecting all of their ingredients.
Evan has read up on amortentia, he had to for his required reading, but he hasn't yet had the chance to practise brewing it, so he's rather excited for today's lesson.
"Right, I'm dreaded at potions" Kit states
"Yes, I know, it's a wonder you got an OWL in it" Evan replies
"Woah, bit harsh don't you think?" Asks Kit
Evan shrugs "You said it first" Evan points out
"I was going to follow it up by asking you to help but I'm not sure I want your help anymore" Kit states indignantly
Evan rolls his eyes "Don't be dramatic, Kit, you need my help whether you want it or not, unless you don't want your amortentia to work" Evan replies
"You know, I hate you" Kit says
"Impossible" Evan replies
"Oh get a fucking room will you?" Snape rolls his eyes
"Merlin, Snape, do you always put that crooked nose where it's not wanted or is that just something you do where I'm concerned?" Asks Evan
"I don't need to be invited to tell a couple of fags to stop being so disgustingly public about their lifestyles" Snape spits
"Oh take your queer bashing somewhere else will you? I'm so fucking bored of it" Evan replies
"Quite ballsy there, Rosier, did you enjoy my fist in your face?" Asks Snape
"Frankly, Severus, I wouldn't want to go near you with a ten foot pole, you're the one that insists on touching me, perhaps you have some soul searching to do" Evan replies
Snape takes a step forward but quick as a flash, Kit steps in front of Evan.
"I'd watch yourself if I were you, lad, because I'm a good half a foot taller than you and I bet I could do some real damage that that ugly mug of yours, maybe even straighten that nose out, so I suggest you back the fuck up and walk away, or else you'l have me to answer to" Kit threatens, his scottish accent thicker than it's ever been
