What's Her Name in Hufflepuff (Potter SI). A funny excerpt from the current chapter:

My attention was so laser focused on the task at hand that it took me awhile to notice the odd tickling sensation on my right arm.

Someone cleared their throat in front of me. I ignored them, and waved my wand over the cauldron.

Awesome, it’s the right shade of red. Now I just need to turn the burner up and wait about fifty minutes…

Someone cleared their throat again.

I turned the burner on, set my timer, and THEN looked up.

Snape was standing over me holding a clipboard and looking pointedly at my right arm.

I looked over at my arm.

Oh. I’m on fire. Well, that’s annoying.

“Extinctus.” I muttered and waved my wand over my arm. The fire went out instantly. Next to me, Mandy’s workstation seemed to be on fire too. I waved my wand and cast the fire extinguishing spell on Mandy’s area too. I really didn’t want the smoke to affect my potion.

I looked back down at my ingredients. I needed to crush the mistletoe berries so I was ready to add them to the mixture…

Snape cleared his throat again.

I looked up.

Was he trying to sabotage me?

“Miss Thompson, are you hurt?” Snape asked sounding more annoyed then concerned.

“No, sir.” I waved my hand in the air dismissively. “It’s just a little fire.”

Snape raised an eyebrow.

“I cast the flame freezing charm on myself this morning before breakfast,” I elaborated so he would leave me alone to brew.

Snape made a face like he was passing a kidney stone, made a mark on his clipboard, and then moved on.

I focused back on my ingredient preparation.
