6th Gryffindor Note: [Voice] / [Action]

[Locked to DA Folks]
I need to see you. I have something to discuss with each of you.

[Locked to Harry]
[She sounds a bit nervous here.] Harry, it didn't work. I've tried everything I can think of, but the map's not coming along yet. But, Harry... Sirius' mirror... did it come with you to Luceti? Do you think it might be possible to charm one here? With your Mum out there, I think it might be a good idea to find a way to contact her or for her to contact us easily. I could make another paper for her, one that's charmed with three others, another for you, me, and Ron, just in case she needs to contact you.

[/Locked]
I'm very glad the tutoring sessions seem to be working out for everyone. I hope all of the New Feathers are settling in well. If any of you, New or Old Feathers, need anything at all, information or someone to study with, I'd be happy to do what I can.

[She's out on the porch reading if anyone wants to interrupt]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[she ignored that first part.] I'm not saying it over this. Come see me, Ron.

[Slight eyeroll, thankfully she can't see it.] Fine, fine... Where are you?

Outside on the porch.

[Which she is... she's sitting down and watching things.]

Right. Be there in a minute... [Probably munching on something, as Ronald is always eating. We'll say he's got a sleeve of crackers or something as he wanders out to the porch, having left his journal behind.]

All right, what's going on?

[She hears the crunching before she sees him, placing her bookmark in the book she was reading before turning to look up at him. She's not getting up from her chair, though. It's comfy.]

This. [And she pulls out a piece of paper, handing it to him.] Remember the DA Galleons? I did a variety of the same spells on this. Don't burn it or lose it.

[That's fine, 'mione. Stay seated, we'll come over and sit on our haunches near your chair to take the paper from you. Nods a little at her instruction, looking the paper over.] Can I fold it? [He means to keep it in his pocket.]

[She nods.] Just don't tear it. I think I've spelled it against that, but as our magic is half-power here, it's difficult to be sure. I've also made it so that each of us can change the form of words on the page. It's a way for all of us to communicate in case we need to. And if anyone but you tries to look at yours, all they'll see is a to-do list, something simple and harmless.

[Feel free to ask what's on your list, Ron...]

Right, right. [Folds the paper fairly neatly into a square and pockets it, holding out his sleeve of crackers to offer her one.]

...Wait. [Makes a face.] You made me a to-do list, but I can't see it?

[She politely declines the offer.]

Well the point of the paper isn't the list, so why do you need to worry about it? [She's trying not to smirk at that.]

[Shrugs, going back to munching on his own. Extracts the paper with his other hand.]

...you made me a list, Hermione, of course I'm going to worry about it.

[She moves to pick up the book so she can hide the half-smirk that's forming.] It's nothing important, just little things that could be done in your spare time. [Like cleaning the kitchen.]

[Hears that half-smirk in her voice and frowns.] ...Hermione.

What?

[Frowns, standing up and leaning over, pressing her book down so he can look at her face.] What'd you put on the list.

[She's half-snickering, but she manages to look up at him.] Nothing that the rest of them don't say. [And she pulls out another for him to look at. It's got mundane things like 'clean the kitchen,' 'hug your housemates,' and 'wash up.' Further down, though, are things like 'Go to school' and 'Homework first.' It's Hermione. Were you expecting anything else?]

[Gives her a sort of withering look, snatching the paper. Watch as his frown creases his face more and more the further down the list he goes.] ...Hermione, you know what? [Offers her the paper back.] You're completely hopeless.

[By now she's smiling and trying not to laugh.] It'll be good for you! School is very important, even here. It may teach things that are very different from what we're used to, but you'd be surprised how relevant it all is.

[Sighs, grumbling a bit.] You're going to nag me until I do, so I may as well. I guess it might be interesting, and it'd make dad happy.

[she beams.] It's not that bad, Ron. I'll even let you borrow my notes so you can catch up.

[Looks thoroughly unenthusiastic about this entire thing, but feigns excitement briefly.] That's this whole tutoring thing you're on about, right? Helping people with school.

Of course. You wouldn't expect me to sit back and let people fail, would you? Besides, it gives me something to do.

[Kind of makes a wager here with his statement.] I dunno, something's different, given I hear you've befriended Malfoy.

[She looks a little startled at this sudden change.] You aren't going to badger me about it, too, are you?

[Shrugs lightly, handing her her paper back and shoving his hands in his pockets. This is something of a sulk.] You're allowed to be friends with whoever you want to, I just can't figure out why.

[Uh-oh, that sulk never means anything good and she's wary already. After the fight with Harry over this topic, she's not particularly amused by the prospect of one with Ron. Have a sigh.]

It's just... different here. He was here a month before I arrived and the laws of our world don't apply. People don't care about the same things. I think some of that affected him. He's not the same person he was back home.
