... So you could imagine his confusion when he ended up in the middle of a mirror maze instead. This wasn't Zap-a-Snitch. "Hey, what gives?!" The second year (to be) ruffled his hair as he turned around... and around ... and around.

Which way was—Wait. Is that really what the back of his head looked like? Heh. He leaned closer to the back-up mirror, smoothing his curly head of hair as best he could. He still wanted to find the snitch game, but he very well couldn't walk around looking like he had just rolled out of bed (even though he technically did just roll out of bed, heh). Mamman would expect better of him.


See, Ashley Fox should NEVER be left unsupervised. She was trying to encounter EVERY mirror in Diagon Alley, was she? She didn’t even know how she ended up here. She’d finally been allowed to go somewhere herself... then she saw a mirror and was drawn in... and now she was here. Sitting defeatedly on the ground, surrounded by mirrors, watching her own reflection yell insulting things(that she often thought herself) about her personality, her appearance, and how unworthy she was of having magic. Strangely, she felt nothing. She was just numb. She wanted Dustin or Alex or anyone really to pick her up like a small child and carry her back to her hotel so she could sleep.

Maybe this WAS a dream. It kinda felt like one. Why would the real Ashley be in a maze of mirrors? Was her reflection the real Ashley or was she? Was her reflection trapped or was was she? Was her reflection the same Ashley or was it an imaginary Ashley? Was SHE the imaginary Ashley? What if neither of them was the real Ashley???

What had she eaten for dinner last night, jeez. Also, why was Lisa’s friend in her dream? That was really, really WEIRD. It couldn’t be a dream then, because she had no reason to imagine Lisa’s friend fixing his hair in a weird funhouse mirror that only showed the back of his head. That was a bit... absurd. So absurd that it could only be happening in reality.

She stared at him. “What are you doing?” She was just gonna sit here until she died, gathered her courage and found a way out, or was rescued. Might as well pass the time talking to someone. That was always better than being alone.
