Characters: Mandy Brocklehurst and Terry Boot Location: Ravenclaw 7th year boys' dormitory Time: 6 February Rating: PG Status: Incomplete
If Mandy were perfectly honest, she'd had a running supply of salve in the girls bedroom for years. Made in one of her smaller cauldrons, she'd perfected the healing concoction around fifth year, and always made sure to have some in case it was needed. With Terry as a best friend, it was needed for more frequently than she liked to admit. It wasn't the only potion she mixed, but it was the most frequently used. Luckily the salve used only a small amount of ground dittany and was mainly used as a general healing tool, as the plant was rare enough to come by and was hardly cheap. Though she did have other options should the injuries be severe, Mandy trusted that it wasn't too complex.
Closing her journal, Mandy tucked away the quill and headed for her trunk. Opening it, she rooted around before finding her healing kit. It wasn't as substantial as she might have liked, but it was useful enough, and within moments she found the small jar. Mostly empty she headed for her desk where the cauldron stood on one of the shelves. Uncovering it, she scooped some salve out and placed it in her jar before covering the cauldron and putting it back in its place. Packing it away in her kit, Mandy then grabbed her wand and headed for the door. In moments she was down the girls stairs and into the common room. Glancing around to make sure Terry wasn't there, then headed straight back up to the 7th year boys' dormitory.
Knocking once, Mandy paused for only a second before heading inside. "Ter? Got the salve, what did you do this time?"
