"Hatstall" Hufflepuff/Slytherin First Year Memoirs.
written by Mondiecee G. Vendour
Mondiecee Galicier Vendour is one of those "Slytherpuffs". Wanting to keep her cover sweet, she asked to be placed in Hufflepuff. Now you can see the plans she's been hiding, and the explosions! ((The cover is made by me: the Hufflepuff drawing is drawn by me in real life; the notebook belongs to me in real life.))

Mondiecee's Secret Lab!
Chapter 7
October 4th, 1998.
I haven't been writing any notes or "Memoirs" lately, and I've just been skimming off Arella's notes, and duplicating them elsewhere (not by magic, not cool enough yet). It's October, now, my favourite month, next to April. Why? Because I yell "April's Fool!" until my throat is sore: it's quite convenient. Why do I like October? Because I like Hallowe'en. A festive and spooky season that sends chills down my back. I've actually realized ghosts aren't a big deal, and even interviewed the Fat Friar for some Extra Credit to pull up my grade.
Anyway, Hallowe'en is pleasant. I have some Hallowe'en themed things to do this month!
On the other note, my secret is safe and sound with only Dora. Let's keep it that way.
The reason why I haven't been writing is simple: I've been busy. Busy with Mondiecee's Secret Lab! I found out the word "Lair" doesn't quite fit...so I went with Lab! It's awesome! I've got my modified bunsen-burner all set on a table I made from a smallish tree I cut, and my other cauldron I brought with me set, and my ingredients (how they are obtained shall not be mentioned), other lab-like containers and not-modified bunsen-burner (the modified one is larger, and made so a cauldron can sit on it).
I forced the chest I mentioned open with Alohomora, and took it down with me. I think my back may have broke that day.
Inside are some pretty mouldy cloths and fabrics. I got them cleaned (you may never guess, but I'm pretty good at Muggle housework, and magic helps a lot) and I made a bed with some logs of wood. The cloths can be quite pretty. No place for windows, so the rest are in the chest, some are in my bed, and a carpet for style. The bed is pretty easy to make with the Severing Charm. I got Arella to help, so after an hour, I got quite a nice bed made, very badly cut but functional. My back may have also broke taking that to my lab (the levitation charm is not my strong suit).
I plan on adding more furniture in the remaining places, and fixing things up in the future when I'm better at this kind of thing, though. My stuff's just lying in a jumbled heap on the side–I need a shelf. I also smuggled two unused chairs and a tea table from the kitchen. Thankfully, they are quite light and my back did not break.
Mondiecee's Secret Lab is the place for me! After classes, I can go there, in secret (hence the name, duh) and brew and experiment all day! I'm writing down my experiments here from now on:
Inventions of Mondiecee G. Vendour:
Faux Fire: Much like Fumos, but instead of just creating smoke, it often combines mild heat into it, to make people panic.
1. Boil some lethe river water with the highest temperature you can manage, and add 5 spoonfuls of standard ingredient.
2. Throw in 3 porcupine spines, mix clockwise, and add a billywig sting.
3. Wear goggles or die.
4. Add some more water, pre-boiled, and add 2 African Peppers. Mix counter-clockwise thrice.
5. Add three measures of pearl dust, then step back.
6. Keeping your distance. add a tincture of demiguise, then wave your wand.
7. (Poooooooffffffff!! Burrrrrnnnn!!!!!!")
Use(s) Keep combination in the dark in a bottle. Open bottle when exposed to sunlight or light casted by fire, and watch as the smoke seeps out, with a tickly hot feeling, giving everyone a sense that something close by is on fire. Pretend to panic, try not to breathe smoke, as it also gives you a runny nose. Discovered in 1997.
The Invisible Ink:
Incomplete; M.G.V. has been working on this since 1996. Our goal is to create a pen which can spray ink (done), but what it is supposed to spray is ink, which will be invisible, but able to be made visible.
(Believed to be) Ingredients (so far): Tincture of demiguise, chloroform, Fairy Wings, Muggle medicine to treat fevers with.
Use(s): To spray someone with ink without them knowing it, then suddenly make it appear (hey, it can embarrass and confuse them–or make them scream if female). Invisible ink to write in.
The Itchy and Numb Hands: To make someone's hands itchy and slightly numb. Good for stealing from them.
1. Crush 2 centipedes and 3-6 mosquitoes in a mortar.
2. Add crushed substance into a glass of icy cold lemonade.
3. Add 4 drops of any kind of blood into the glass, while mixing slowly, either direction.
4. Add a tablespoon of crushed ice mixed with lingonberry jam to glass.
5. Add some pus, make sure the glass is still icy cold, then wave your wand.
6. Preserve it.
Use(s): Mainly prank reasons to make someone's hands go numb but remain itchy. Pour over any part of skin really (wear gloves yourself). Good for distraction. Discovered in 1997.
Mondiecee's Enchanting Sleeping Ball: See previous notes. Discovered 1998.
The Cheering Charm With Pain: A needle that injects a fluid that makes someone laugh (and only laugh, no true joy in it). How strong the laugh is depends on how well you are doing it. A variation of the Laughing Potion, with M.G.V.'s touches.
Make laughing potion with a few touches.
1. Add clear spring water into your cauldron. M.G.V. Extra: then add some belladonna medicine.
2. Add chopped alihotsy leaves.
3. Stir slowly. Or it won't work!
4. Snigger at it.
5. Grind some Billywig wings and add them. Stir slowly. M.G.V. Extra: one billywig sting, too.
6. Add three Knarl quills.
7. Heat the mixture, then stir vigorously. Giggle at the potion while you're at it, and heat it some more, then add some puffskein's hair.
8. Stir suddenly quickly. LAUGH LOUDLY AND UNCONTROLABLY! M.G.V. Extra: spit while laughing, too, and add some dust off the floor.
9. Add a sprinkle of horseradish powder. Stir the potion and heat for the last time.
10. Wave your wand.
Use(s)Without M.G.V.'s touches, works as a normal laughing potion, great fun! With them, it doesn't work as a laughing potion. Instead, inject it into the type of needles doctors use, rub it with sugar, and use it on your foes. They will laugh, the same, but at the same time, they will temporarily forget the last few minutes or so, and laugh even harder, but feel no euphoria. Trust me, this is useful. Discovered 1999.
