Woo-hoo! Very wise of Severus to get a piece of the pie. *applause*

camillo1978 October 18 2007, 00:47:17 UTC

So you get what he's making?

keladry_lupin October 18 2007, 00:52:07 UTC

It's for Oktoberfest, so I'm assuming it's some kind of alcoholic ... stuff, but being a teetotaller, I have no idea. (Which means I'm going to look like a complete idiot if it isn't alcoholic.) I was just admiring his Slytherinness.

Heeeee! You are so teatotal. Ginger for nausea, salt and sugar for dehydration, coffee contains caffeine, willow bark contains salicylic acid (asprin), blackcurrant juice contains vitamin-c.

Hangover cure.

Unfortunately for me, the last ingredient is magic.

I won't beg, but if there were a little left over ... ;D

Very clever using willow bark, should head off the hangovers.

camillo1978 October 18 2007, 01:02:08 UTC

Hello! You can tell I'm a science geek. The whole thing's for hangovers.

Ginger for nausea
salt and sugar for dehydration
coffee to wake you up
willow bark contains salicylic acid (asprin) *1 mark for you*
blackcurrant juice for vitamin-c to sort out your immune system.

That is effing brilliant! *is awed*

camillo1978 October 18 2007, 02:06:28 UTC

LOL! If only it worked instantaneously.

blackeyedlily October 18 2007, 01:21:45 UTC

Very nice first drabble!

camillo1978 October 18 2007, 01:25:35 UTC

*mops brow* Thanks! But did you figure out what he's brewing?

blackeyedlily October 18 2007, 18:16:38 UTC

Yes, a hangover cure, right?

camillo1978 October 18 2007, 21:47:15 UTC

Yay! Brownie points for you!

bambu345 October 18 2007, 02:07:50 UTC

That's an excellent hangover/pick-me-up remedy. This is utterly charming, you know I wouldn't mind journeying along to Zanzibar with them.

camillo1978 October 18 2007, 02:12:06 UTC

Hello there. Thank you. First time is a little bit scary! I'd like to go to Zanzibar with them too. Oh yes.

bambu345 October 18 2007, 15:01:14 UTC

But aren't they really fun? I think they're great writing warm-ups; and I play with them often.

Never having been to Zanzibar, I have nevertheless heard about 'the air is full of spices.'

*snicker*

I liked this greatly!

Thank you! Thought there would be and was thinking of trying, but wasn't sure whether to wait for a Modly nod. *beetles off to have a go*

queenp71 October 18 2007, 02:19:02 UTC

Took me a couple of tries to get it done right. I still have trouble being the first to post to a challenge, and I don't know why--neither does her Darque Modness. (Which is an easy situation to avoid, as I don't post often and when I do it is generally late in the week...*snerk*)
