So it has something to do with the food?
Food is the antidote.
I doubt that food is an antidote. Food - baked food, anyway - is cooked with water. Coffee and tea are probably also contaminated. I think it started to hit him before he got any solid food. So the place ought to be fine for anyone who doesn't have magic. But how many people don't have any at all?
So Sid's magic is still working. Which probably means the "curse" isn't working on him. Yet.
Sid's magic is still working - but can Sid make it work?
My heart is beating - but i can't change its rate.
That sixth panel Gren-face though :3
Never mind that, that third-panel Gren-face. Actually, all the Gren-faces on this page. (Don't worry, you have nothing to prove here, you invented her :-D )
It's in the water, I'd bet.
Yes that was my immediate thought when it was said it was dropped into a hole in the ground, i reckon she managed to drop it into the water table.
Hard not to; take it from me, the North of England is almost entirely composed of water table.
The food; he ate, he lost his power; he spends two days drinking instead of eating, he regains his powers. Plus Harry said she didn't think the biscuits were to blame which means they definitely are. :P
Oho !
See, Sid? Useful wizard is useful already.
Translation: Howthehellisthatstillhappeninganyway?
It's also possible that Sid's curse (the original curse, I mean, not the Witmore curse) doesn't actually come from him and therefore jinxing HIS magic wouldn't affect it, in which case he's learnt a potentially slightly useful clue from this whole mess, anyway.
SPIDER!
(is usually what's going on if I have Sid's reaction in the last panel)
"Well. I'm glad you'll get up for toast." That goes straight in the Great Lines folder!
You're definitely confused if you think Mal is there :V
