"I'm glad to see you have so much faith in me" he raised his eyebrow and smirked. "I followed the instructions exactly how they were supposed to be, like I was making a cake and you know they always come out amazing." So he was fairly certain that there would be no issue. He hoped.
"I wouldn't have guessed" he responded sarcastically, a grin taking over his face. It was obvious that she would be the one to get everything right. She was a Ravenclaw after all. "So you have access to water if it all goes wrong?" he asked laughing. He stepped off the rock and headed down towards the waters edge, making sure he was a far enough distance away to not get himself wet.
"I don't know about that. I've found things can get messy when you're in the kitchens." She teased, cocking her head to the side and grinning.
She shrugged. If there was anything Dora was better at than using her wand, it was making a potion. More than half a lifetime of practice can do that.
"No, I have a wand if I need water, but throwing you in is an idea." More fun than just putting out the fire. She sat down beside him, even if she preferred to be closer to the water than this, and pulled out a small purple pouch.
"Want to try out your potion first then?"
