The house elves portion was a VERY good point and Vera considered that point for a moment, before the easiest answer was what popped into her head. Why not just ask?? "I bet if we asked them nicely and assured we'd clean everything up they'd be okay with it!" The house elves were the nicest beings in existence. It was only because of that she wouldn't disregard the inconvenience it would cause them and just... do whatever she wanted. "Or if they don't like it, what we COULD do is host a massive fort party in the Room of Requirement next term. Maybe like... a welcome back to Hogwarts type of shindig!" And if they did it on a weekend during non-curfew hours, they wouldn't even have to get permission from ANYONE. Just.. make some cookies and bring some crisps or something and they had themselves an event!

Had Aurora ever indicated to Vera that she felt at times misplaced, she would have gladly told her everything she thought of the young girl and how she'd been put in the PERFECT house. But thankfully for most, she also was not actually a legilimens either. Maybe that was something that could be put on her bucket list later in life too. Though... truthfully she'd rather learn occlumency and protect her own thoughts first.

Vera was very confident in Aurora's confidence to do the spell herself, but she still observed the girl for a moment to make sure gloves were now comfortable before turning back to her bag. They were well protected now - but she was also already running out of patience. Which clearly meant the only thing to do now... was dump ALL the clothes. Pulling out the remainder of the freshly dyed reds, she offered half a pile towards Aurora. "Shall we finish the job together and put in the rest??" She asked with a wide grin, already stepping closer.
