Cauldron
"Calm down, Neville," Angelina said, "It's not as if you're going to blow it up, like in the old days."
"I know," he replied, "but even the sight of a cauldron still makes me nervous. I'd be happy to let Professor Snape make the Potion by himself, but a live Fool's Mandrake needs expert handling."
"Well," she said, "You're Professor of Herbology here now, so don't let him get you down."
"Sometimes I wonder if I should've taken that job at …mfff!"
"Don't be so silly," she said, finishing her kiss, "you won't melt that new gold-lined cauldron of his."
