Chapter 20

Headmistress Millington came by late that night with a sleeping potion mixed into a tea designed to knock Seph out and help her stay out. A side effect of such a powerful potion was thinking the previous night had been a dream. The potion would last until I gave her the antidote, but making her think she'd dreamed last night was permanent. I couldn't decide if that was good or bad since it kind of felt like tricking her.

"No more than two drops of the antidote," the headmistress insisted. "Any more than that and she'll be licking the walls."

Was...was that a bad thing? If the walls tasted like bread or pancakes or sticky rolls, I'd be licking them too.
