"I'll save you from death AND embarrassing stuff. Promise." Dramatic, but she accompanied it with a cheeky sort of grin to convey that she was just teasing. Dot wasn't in any harm, surely even Soph's teasing wouldn't make her think that, would it? Didn't seem to bother the girl all that much, though, as she was off to pick a potion for BOTH OF THEM. Which meant... Sophie's life was in the hands of the young Slytherin.
Merlin.
When the girl returned, the fourth year tried to look as calm and cool as possible, but she was mostly trying to figure out which bottle in Dot's hands she wanted. She wished she KNEW which one was making people all lovey-dovey and HOPED she wasn't going to be drinking that one - unless she made sure those feelings were only directed toward Tobes. She didn't want to hurt anyone, especially not him, but she wouldn't even know if that was going to happen till she took one of the poisons, so she pointed to the one with the number '3' on it. "Thanks for getting them for us, s'okay if I take this one?"
She had already taken it from Dot, though, impulsively out of nerves - voluntarily poisoning oneself. Pffft. A typical Culloden move, certainly, and a test of their bravery. "Hope someone cute falls in love with you AND you fall in love with them," was her choice of words as she gently clinked her bottle together with Dot's as a toast, then she drank.
...And, after a few long seconds, her whole demeanor drooped, her expression somber. Her body... did not feel so good, no. "Why do bad things happen to good people," she whispered to Dot. She was DYING. Her body was DETERIORATING. Culloden was KILLING HER. Dot took her potion at the same time as Sophie, although she kept an eye on the girl. You didn't get to choose, in this class, who falls for you, but it was nice to think it might be someone really interestin'. She sniffed at her potion, the one in the number 4 bottle, before finally taking a loooooooong sip of it.
Poison didn't taste half bad, did it? Smacking her lips, Dot turned back to her partner, who was basically falling apart on her. OH NO. WHAT HAPPENED? She cupped her Sophie's face in both hands and loooooooooked at her deeply. Poor Sophie. She was a goner, huh? Wasn't that hilarious? GONER. "Don't give up, Sophie-bo-bophie. I believe you can live FOREVER. I'll take care of you."
You know something else that was hilarious? This classroom with BLUE walls. So funny. And the way Sophie's hair was brown. And people kissing. And just... life. Funny. It made her feel like bubbles in her tummy. "I have a secret to tell you. But only if you promise TO FIGHT FOR YOUR LIFE."
