Emylee raised her hand again,"It's Emylee professor and you could add a spring of peppermint, sir."

Professor Pridemore laughed, " Very good Emylee, another five for Ravenclaw!" He looked at all of his students, "I am going to ask you all to make an elixir to induce euphoria. Do you think you are up to it? I will give you the ingredients even." He strode across the room and handed each student a sheet of parchment each containing the ingredients neccesary:
Elanor roots (to be chopped)
Three Mallorn leaves (to be crushed)
Bicorn horn (to be ground into a coarse powder)
Dried Dittany
Lotus fruit(sliced into seven small cubes)
Stir clockwise until it gives off the scent of happiness (you will know) and stir counterclockwise until it gives the yellow color you desire.
Good luck

Trista picked up her piece of parchment and stood to go gather her ingredients. She obtained her Elanor roots, the three Mallorn leaves, the Bicorn horn, dried dittany, and lotus fruit. She carried all the ingredients back to her desk, along with a couldron. She started chopping up the Elanor roots, then moved on to crush the mallorn leaves. When she finished those, she added them to her couldron, along with the dried dittany. She sliced the lotus fruit into cubes, then added those. Lastly, she ground up the bicorn horn until it was at its full coarse powder, and then she carefully added the powder to the pot, being cautious to not spill any. Trista pulled out a stirring device and followed the directions in stirring clockwise. She kept her face close to the opening of the pot, waiting to smell the scent that was supposed to be given. After she started to smell a different aroma, she stopped and examined her potion. Then she began to stir counterclockwise and waited for the potion to turn sunshine-yellow. When the potion did not change right away, Trista became disappointed and thought she had done something wrong, but soon later the potion began to yellow in color until it reached its sunshine-yellow color. Trista sat back and admired her potion, smiling proudly to herself.

Emylee started crushing the three mallorn leaves, then crushed the bicorn horn. After she cut the lotus fruit into 7 small cubes. She dropped the ingredients into her cauldron, including the dried dittany. Emylee stirred it clockwise and stirred. Finally she smelt the scent of happiness she was supposed to smell. She stirred it counterclockwise until it turned the sunny color it was supposed to be. Oh I hope I got it right,Emylee thought to herself.

Mitsu smiled as she got her ingredients, taking them back along with a cauldron to her spot. She laid them out, nice and neat and following the instructions began to do as told: crushing the mallorn leaves, then crushing the bicorn horn until it was a coarse powder (This she found to be a rather annoying task) before she chopped up the elanor roots.
Her cutting knife found the lotus fruit and the fruit would be sliced into seven pieces. A smile crawled on her lips to her this was like making a cake or a cream puff...mmm cream puffs. As she added it each ingredent she stirred it some here and there and then, carefully she poured in the coarse powder, sighing to herself as she made sure every grain was placed in. The fruits she had to admit were what she enjoyed as she dropped each one in very fancy like.
She once more took her stirring tool and stirred as directed, clockwise and then counter clock wise. She was mildly annoyed when it came out to be a pale yellow, and stirred it a bit more before it got more brighter, but not to much.
"Mmm...I know i added it in at the right time and did everything I was supposed to...murr what could be missing..." She asked herself then she blinked, staring at a lone fruit.
"Oh silly me." she said before smirking faintly. She plopped the last piece in and was very pleased to see it become a mellow yellow color. Not to bright and not to pale an easy to stand looking shade of yellow.

Persephone smiled when the professor told them they'd be making an Elixir to Induce Euphoria. Being a 7th year, she'd made this potion once before. At the time it had been slightly difficult, but she had figured out what she'd done wrong.
She got the ingredients and took her time cutting and chopping and grinding. If there was one thing she'd learned with potions, it was to take her time with the ingredients.
She added them one by one into her cauldron, and stirred as the instructions told her to. After the warm, sweet aroma of happines reached her nose, she stirred the other way. Her potion became a more golden yellow, which suited Persephone fine. She hates the color yellow, especially sunshine yellow. Perhaps that's why her potion remained a golden color; it's what makes her happy.

Ginger skipped to the store cupboard to get the ingredients she did not have herself, and grinded, cut and crushed away at them, her eyes darting back and forth between her cauldron and the blackboard, sometimes letting her eye fall on the book in front of her just to make sure.
Potion making was just like cooking, in essence, but cooking wasn't as precise, she figured. At least she always added something like extra garlic or salt or some spice to make it special. She figured potions were possible very alike. She stuck to the basic instructions, however, and before long her potion turned a bright yellow. With a bright smile, she began to hum, continuing to stir happily.

As the potions in the cauldrons began to change into their proper colors he began sing happily. "Very good everyone! As a reward for you hard work you will be able to take two vials of your potions with as you. You all did wonderful work, after you have completed your potions grab the vials in the cupboard and enjoy the rest of your classes." He smiled at each one of them, entirely pleased at his new students and looked forward to seeing them more and more throughout the school year. "Don't be afraid to drop by and say hello." The Professor moved his chair back to the corner and continued to walk around his room.

Mitsu looked absolutly stunned and with an excited squeal she scuttled away, making cute scuttling sounds with her mouth and grabbed a vial. The aroma of happiness she had breathed in seemed to have given her a bit of a push. She looked to Ginny and feeling nice took two vials, walking over to her own cauldron she sat down her two vials and then walked to Ginny, handing her the other two.
"Here Ginny" she said smiling.

((Man do I know when to stop posting for a day. . . ))
Ryu made his potion like it said on the board, but, before he started stirring, he remembered what they said would stop the singing and such. He pointed his wand to his bag and whispered, "Accio Pepperment!" and the plant shot out of his bag. He grabbed it and put some of it in the cauldron. He then stirred and he could smell something that he didn't know what it was, but it made him very happy. He put it into two vials and closed them. He put them into his bag and pointed his wand at his couldron, "Scourgify!" and it was cleened. He put the couldron in his bag as well, because he had used a charm to make it larger on the inside at his house. He then got up and left the dungeons.

"Ryu," the professor said before he left the dungeon,"may I speak to you for a moment." The professor walked over to his desk and sat down the whole while smiling very pleasently.

Sephie perked up when the professor told them they could take their potion with them. She conjured up two vials and filled them almost to the brim. She would save them for whenever she was having a really bad day, and needed something to cheer her up. She cleared her cauldron and looked around for other finished people to talk to.
