Sarah sets her reagents down and turns to respond, jumping slightly as she was not expecting an 8-foot, hippo-headed person, but replies, "Good thing they're not meant to be. It's just for fireworks...If I put too much in, people's eardrums will be bleeding."

Sarah shakes her head with a smile and replies, "Nope! You'll see in a week or so. I'm planning on lighting up the sky over Green Campus."

Sarah shakes her head with a laugh and replies, "I mean artillery salutes are great fun, but...Not exactly what I'm going for? I mean if you want to bring a bunch to fire blanks, that's fine. I'm just...A little concerned about noise-sensitive students having a hard time, if that makes sense."

Sarah nods and goes back to her work, humming gently as she continues to mix reagents *just so* as to not accidentally explode. When she sees Volka, she has to keep herself from jumping with surprise even as a smile spread across her face as she replies, "I should be asking you that! I didn't know you did Alchemy stuff."
