Lily sits down and starts doing sit-ups. 

Nia bends and touches her toes and starts the process of getting deeper into the stretch; she can't get her hands flat on the floor yet.

Strictly speaking Alexei doesn't need to take part in this but a little extra can't hurt, really. With a heavy internal sigh, he starts doing some math problems in his head and shoving the resulting mana into his power-sharer.

(Angie, meanwhile, is actually still gaining a little mana just from carrying her pack around. Alexei is not wrong to be worrying about her, for all she's not showing the strain, rather pretty much just channeling it into her cheer.) 

Having established that nothing else is trying to eat them, Alexius finishes up. "Iiiii would rather not get in the habit of distracting myself with mana-building on supply runs, especially as the designated mal attractant. But I do in fact have a power-sharer and am entitled to draw on it as long as I pay it back, which I will once I sell my potions, which I will have more to sell if I happen to find a nice fat stock of mercury downstairs. Therefore..." and he siphons off some mana for Zed. 

Sara takes it, "Fair, kid," she agrees. "Pass it on, you all, and let's get going. Lexi, stop distracting yourself, you're on watch," she adds. The nickname causes him to make a face at her, but he returns to his former vigilance as told. 

Yolanda completes her cartwheel to get right-side-up and passes over the mana thus accumulated. 

Nia donates hers.

Lily stands, and carefully channels her stored mana into Zed's proffered sink.

Zed gathers all the mana and starts on the spell again, grabbing hold of the back of Alexei's shirt and nudging him forward through the door.

Nia writes an alchemical wishlist, though it's sparser than her school supplies one.

Lily takes up her rearguard position again.

Alexius heads towards the front of the pack again, ready to bodyblock for the others, and thinks about brewing station parts and memory potion ingredients. 

Yolanda is not super an alchemist so she mostly thinks about expensive alchemical trade goods. 

Alexei reluctantly passes them to Angie after a moment, not being the safest person to be following around. She holds onto their arm as they descend deeper into the school, keeping them from running into anything. 

None of them particularly need anything from the alchemy storage, though, so they're mostly just guarding and planning on taking whatever is there that piques interest.

...things that combine well with cocaine? Things that have high trade value? 

Safe, easily transportable, valuable compounds. Orichalcum powder - Orichalcum rods, she could draw those out into wire - citrionelle oil, eucalyptus oil, alum, lubanja, mineral oil, vitriol, moongold, platinum, coral, zafranum, ginger oil, mustard seed -

Tomonori would like quite a few alchemical supplies!

Jasmine attar, daemonorops resin, caraway seeds, sandalwood powder...cassiterite, although that's a long shot.

Down down down they go, Zed muttering the spell and concentrating very hard. All the different types of mana very strange. They're used to Alex and Angie's. But the spell works and -

"Next door on the left."

"Thank you Zed and Sir Spell the Marvelous!" She waits for the mal check before diving into the cabinet in search of coconut oil and pine sap and rock salt.

A huge five kilo tub of coconut oil! And the other two as well, but mostly the coconut oil takes up the whole cabinet.

Lily keeps her rearguard position and doesn't so much as glance over at anything.

"Oh, Sir Spell, this is a little much," she muses, peering at the coconut oil. She regards it and then pulls one of her jars. "Has anyone a spoon?"

Alex silently offers her a ladle from a nearby shelf.

"Thank you, Zed, and Sir Spell the Marvelous!"

Spells probably aren't like items in that they need you to appreciate them to behave the way you want them to, but it seems only fair to be nice to Zed and his spell. Tomonori is glad Nia started the thankfulness train- he probably wouldn't have thought of it on his own.

He can't help with her coconut oil dilemma, so hopefully the ladle will do. Attar, resin, seeds, powder...ore, if he's lucky, although maybe the school thinks that's only for artificing. He can imagine it getting confused.

Nia ladles coconut oil into her jar, humming merrily, and puts the rock salt chunks and little vial of pine sap each in her pants pockets, previously turned out for safety reasons but now shovable back into her pants, since her backpack is now very full and she has a second binder to carry too.
