"Oh?" Cassandra relaxed a bit. "It's only you Noah." She didn't mean to sound dismissive but out of all the Unspeakables she worked with he was the least likely to scare her. She had already sent a couple of her coworkers to St. Mungo's for 'sneaking' up on her and her father always hammered home the importance of a well places curse or jinx.
"Thanks for announcing yourself." She stopped stirring the potion for a brief moment, "What do you know about love potions?" Cassandra would never tout herself as an expert, it sends the wrong message, but she was genuinely curious. She watched her mother brew thousands of these as 'marital aids' and before she left for her first year of school she could brew several basic ones without looking at a potions book.
"What do you smell?" She asked him again. Her current test had to do with playing with that like between love and infatuation and she had been testing which ingredients made the potion stronger or weaker based on a passerby's scent.
