[WHAT HO, A FIGURE DOTH APPEARETH-- okay whatever. Appearing for the first time in a while, Barty is... brewing something foul smelling in a plain black cauldron. He occasionally mutters to himself under his breath, but displays no outward interest in his environment. There's so much to be done, after all.

If anything, however, he is definitely very focused on his task. Almost unnaturally so.]

[OOC: I live. :B]

[Is standing behind him, making a slight face at the smell but otherwise looking curious] ...What's that?

[forthedarklord.livejournal.com]

[Oh, he remembers you-- and looks a little impatient at being interrupted.] Nothing you'd've heard of.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Eyebrow raise] ...Right.

Well, what's its general purpose?

[gerogerodance.livejournal.com]

[Aaand hopping closer, even though the smell is almost choking, and this guy is one of the scariest things alive.]

Nee nee nee are you doing magic, gero? Are you?

[forthedarklord.livejournal.com]

Ask me again, and I might store you away as an ingredient. [...amused by his own attempts to terrorize the talking frog despite being distracted from his task.]

[gerogerodance.livejournal.com]

[GULP.] But then what are you doing, hm hm hm? What, gero? [He never learns.]

[ram-of-gold.livejournal.com]

[Shion is lurking and watching. He feels the need to keep an eye on Barty.]

[forthedarklord.livejournal.com]

[Hasn't noticed you-- cue more stirring of the Polyjuice Potion, and he digs around in a small pouch.]

[ram-of-gold.livejournal.com]

What are you up to?

[fireintothesky.livejournal.com]

[Ohai, have an intrigued child. And mun permission to turn her into things/levitate her/what have you--anything short of actually causing her pain. *pets the muse*]

[She is lurking curiously.] Are you making a potion?

[forthedarklord.livejournal.com]

Nothing else it could be, is there? [Splendid. 83 And he shoots you a dark glance over one shoulder- he's hunched over it almost protectively, even though the vapours are probably hot.]

[fireintothesky.livejournal.com]

[She doesn't notice the protectiveness, because... well. She's not a particularly sensitive person when it comes to people she doesn't know. And so she comes closer.] What's it for?

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

[the Doctor strides up silently, peering at the cauldron from a safe distance; after a time, curious and amused]

Well, I can't identify any of the ingredients by scent. Care to enlighten me?

[forthedarklord.livejournal.com]

[Luckily, you are not one that looks like him and are thus spared instant loathing-- not that... he is being friendly, or even close to it.] Depends what you'll give me in return.

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

[raises his eyebrows, lips curving just slightly] Information for information?

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

What are you making?

[forthedarklord.livejournal.com]

[Flatly; He's heard that question enough today to last him a lifetime.]

Polyjuice potion.

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

[Too bad Adric's not going to leave him alone. Barty looks like the Doctor, and since Adric's a terrible judge of character that's enough for him to like him.]

What's it for?

[servant-ofevil.livejournal.com]

[For a moment, it looks as if Len is crinkling his nose at the smell. But then he's back to his usual impassive expression.] That looks to be an unusual soup, sir.

[forthedarklord.livejournal.com]

Never said it was soup, did I?

[servant-ofevil.livejournal.com]

[He bows] Forgive my assumption, sir. In truth, I was uncertain as to the contents.

[onedrous.livejournal.com]

[Recalling Chris, One is highly amused by potions but the only outward sign is a 2-second twitch in the corner of his mouth. Otherwise he just stands silently nearby, observing]

[forthedarklord.livejournal.com]

[Oh, he hasn't forgotten you. There's definite recognition, but not one of the happy variety.] Got more questions, do you? Bet you've never heard of it.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

[This time, it's Arthur who's doing the lurking. He can't help it; his curiosity gets the better of him sometimes]

[forthedarklord.livejournal.com]

[Luckily for you, he hasn't noticed just yet. You get treated to the sight of him tapping the magical fire under the cauldron, causing the flames to grow.]
