She was curious. How did it work, to see inside someones thoughts like that?

She knew one thing though. Dora was likely to be furious. Her bestie hated the idea of her food and drink being tampered with. Not alone her brain.

And speaking of Dora... Sam quickly rummaged in her bag, and pulled out a warm jacket and a thermos of hot sweet tea. "You're not the only one," she replied, handing over the latter, and wrapping the former round the Gryffindor's shoulders. "Did you know it wasn't real? Seems like dangerous magic to me." Meddling with someone's thoughts.

As for Healer Reed? Sam nodded in his direction. "We can go together, if you like."
Dora was... not pleased with the challenge... although she wouldn't actually call it a challenge seeing as none of it actually HAPPENED. It was frustrating beyond belief. They were throwing around words like WORTH, but everything seemed to be illusions and tricks to date. So they would be scored according to whether or not their DREAM self was able to suss out a riddle.

TOTAL CROCK OF CRUD.

But these things merely bounced around in her head, she was too drained to really voice any of it. Dora gladly took the thermos and held it tightly, her eyes going over to the other competitors. She would congratulate them for succeeding, but it seemed that everyone kind of felt the same way she did. Besides, why even bother with the pretense?

Attention drawn back to her bestie, she frowned deeply. "I didn't know it wasn't real when I was... dreaming it all, no. But I knew I was taking a potion at the start and knew... most of what happened when I woke up. Memories were tampered with again, though. And I am not keen on that." Her voice was soft and quiet, her eyes flashing with a little anger. That was all she could muster. She had taken the sodding potion even though she had no reason to trust ANY of them... and this was the thanks she got. AWESOME.

Unscrewing the lid of the thermos she lifted it to her lips and swallowed down a good deal of it, letting the heat radiate through her...

But as soon as it hit her stomach she felt it. Felt that she had made a great mistake. Turning to look at Sam, Dora opened her mouth to speak, but instead of words... the tea found itself right back up and out of her mouth... and onto Sam's lap.

Once, twice... retching. Her head was swimming and everything she had consumed was finding its way back up.

AWESOME. All she could think of was the fact that here she sat, Gryffindor champion... puking on her best friend.

GREAT END TO HER DAY!
