Lean into the Potion tutoring, F
From Create Your Own Story
You decide to turn up the charm a notch, seeing that Nathan is receptive to your playful banter. "Come on, Nathan, think about it. Private potion lessons could be... enlightening. Just you, me, and the magic in the air," you say, giving him a sly grin.
Nathan chuckles nervously, his cheeks showing a hint of color. "I don't know about that. Potion-making is a serious business, you know" He glances at you, his expression a mix of amusement and embarrassment. "Well, there are some advanced potions that can be tricky. I wouldn't want you accidentally turning yourself into a toad or something."
"Please, everyone knows the toad thing is wayyyy harder to do than people think. One famouse witch a hundred years ago does it a few times and now everyone thinks it could happen to them..." You lean in closer, a mischievous glint in your eyes. "And even still, I'd risk it for the sake of a good lesson. I think you'd make a fantastic teacher. Very hands-on, I presume?"
Nathan stammers for a moment, clearly flustered. "I, uh, well, teaching is about guidance, not necessarily hands-on... I mean ..."
You disrupt his protest with a flirtatious pout, your lips forming a playful curve. "Oh, come on, Nathan, don't be such a stick in the mud. Just imagine it. What better way to show me something new?"
Nathan, cornered and the lingering clutter from Alex's previous nights tinkering at potion-making, sighs and gives in to the growing atmosphere. "Fine, fine. One lesson. But only if you promise to take it seriously."
Your face lights up with satisfaction. "Deal! I'll be the most dedicated student you've ever had."
As the aromatic blend of magical ingredients fills the air, the room takes on a cozy, chaotic charm. Amidst the remnants of Alex's earlier endeavors, you've successfully convinced Nathan to share his potion-making secrets in what promises to be a memorable private lesson. The atmosphere is charged with a playful energy, and the scent of herbs adds an extra layer of enchantment to the moment.
Turning off the stove and clearing up a little of the clutter, Nathan hesitantly fetches to his bedroom for a moment, returning with a book of spells to do at home. It's a beginner-friendly back street book.
"These aren't on the curriculum, but I think you'll like these more - they're street arts, so just - skim past the ones that are more adult"
"More adult? Nathan you scoundrel!"
"They came with the book I didn't choose for them to be in here!"
Laughing, Nathan can't stay mad at you for long. He hands you the pages and gives you some time to skim the different options. He wasn't kidding about the more adult spells. The collection of off-brand magic covered everything from getting the cleanest clothes, to potions of heat and desire, from spices that made animals speak Italian, to liquor that would produce a better orgasm. It even had you blushing reading HOW you had to brew the NSFW sections ...
Getting to the end, you ask Nathan to show you ...
