That had worked well so far so she didn't really see any need to change anything now.

Putting her safety into somebody else's hands? "I don't." Olly's frown deepened as she regarded Dora in silence for a moment. She honestly didn't. Just because she knew how to talk others into fighting her fights for her didn't mean she placed her safety into their hands. If she were to just idly stand by and HOPE they would protect her, well that would be a whole other story. But that's not what she did...........right?

Actually, the change of her eye color bothered her the most though. Her eyes were the ONE thing that brought out the resemblance between her and her little sister. And now they were...blue. Though Olly didn't voice those thoughts, naturally. No need to share this with Dora. Plus a moment later the other girl had changed her back again.

Letting herself be distracted from her own change just a second earlier, Olly tilted her head slightly to the side and simply looked at Dora. "Yeah? What color?" Did she change it to house colors? That WOULD actually make a lot of sense.
"You increase you chances of successfully defending yourself if you do have one though." One could only fight like a muggle for so long. But Olly... she was so interesting. Dora tilted her head to the side amused. "You think you can find everyone's weak spot?" That would be even more interesting.

Dora nodded her head a bit decisively. Olly did. If not all of her safety, a good deal more than she herself did. And those others that she knew. But if that was how she wanted it, then that was on her. She wasn't gonna force the girl to learn how to use her wand or anything. That was not her job.

"Ravenclaw colors. Blue mostly." She shrugged her shoulders. "Once I did a strand of red." For obvious reasons, yes? Dora thought so.
