Who: Remus and Sirus (natch) and later Alice What: Cauldron melting Where: Potions class When: During Tuesday class
Potions was far from Remus' favorite class. It wasn't so much that it was a difficult class for him, he seemed to grasp the concepts reasonably well and his grades were right where they needed to be. No, the thing that he didn't like about it was that he always had to be so much more careful than the other students. There weren't a great deal more potions ingredients that were dangerous to werewolves than were too humans, but the few that were had a tendency to show up with annoying frequency in common potions that they worked on for class. Not to mention the few times that they'd needed to use silver stir sticks, those classes had been a tense dance of making sure that he still looked like he was working without actually touching the stirrer. Luckily, today they weren't using anything that would cause a reaction, so he could relax a bit. Still, the motions were repetitious and didn't really engage his mind, so it kept wandering back to what Sirius had said on Saturday about not being able to keep his hands off of him in class. It was making it very difficult to concentrate.
