As Hayden listened Patrick began to delve into the topic of Felix Felicis and its effects on the paper, his mind struggled to stay focused on the task at hand. Caught up in his own thoughts and the magnetic presence of Patrick, Hayden found himself only half-listening to Patrick's words. However, when Patrick apologized for rambling, Hayden's cheeks flushed a delicate shade of pink, indicating his embarrassment at being distracted.
"No, please continue," Hayden reassured Patrick with a warm smile, gently squeezing his hand as a gesture of support. With a concerted effort, he refocused his attention on the subject of discussion: Felix Felicis, the liquid luck potion.
Hayden began to articulate his thoughts, carefully choosing his words. "The use of Felix Felicis should be approached with caution," he explained. "Overindulgence in the potion can lead to recklessness, as the drinker may rely too heavily on the potion's effects. However, I personally don't see a problem with using it in moderation. It doesn't do the work for you; rather, it instills a profound belief in oneself."
As Hayden expressed his perspective, he maintained eye contact with Patrick, a small smile playing at the corners of his lips. He believed that the potion's primary benefit lay in bolstering one's self-confidence and facilitating clear decision-making.
