((OOC: PLEASE READ. The first action part is for Draco, Raine, and Harry in that order. After she gets home and talks to Harry, housemates are free to reply and then anyone who's heard she's back and wants to come visit her is free to reply. But please wait for those three first. Thanks! Have at now, but keep in mind that she is home so all action posts are at home!))

[It's midday in the woods. Calm, quiet. And then... CRUNCH SPLASH. Guess who just got literally dumped into the lake on this cold winter day? And hard enough to break what little ice is still left. Yep. Hermione's back. And she looks like she's been through hell. Coughing, sputtering. She's going to try to climb up onto the bank, because seriously Malnosso? A sprained ankle, a partially bleeding neck, and a bunch of scratches and bruises and you couldn't dump her somewhere dry?

So... the lake just seems to not like people lately.]

[Probably an hour later, writing will appear from her, but her hand is still shaky. If anyone remembers when she first arrived, this handwriting is comparable to that.]

I'd just like to inform everyone that I'm back. It's been long enough that I should have missed an experiment... I hope everyone else is well.

Hermione

[He sighs and runs a hand through his hair.] You're telling me.

[She gives him a sympathetic look at that.] I'm working to unravel it, but there's just so much to go through. It's like trying to unravel one of Ron's Mum's sweaters while she yells at you for it.

If anyone can do it, you can. Has anyone else been able to help?

[She smiles at that.] A little bit here and there. I ought to update my notebook again and try to see if I missed a special entry while I was gone. Mostly what I have now is what Raine told me on my first day. [It's funny that she learned everything she needed to know about Luceti on her first day here, but that's Hermione for you.]

[He smiles back.] I haven't heard much of anything since then, nothing that might help us get out, anyway. [That's her epic research skills at work.]

I'll keep looking. [You know she'll never quit researching. Even if her mun is feeling the crazy pressure from playing her |D] There has to be something somewhere. [But it's time to push her plate away as she's eaten as much as she can by now.] Thank you for this, Harry. [It was so nice to be greeted by him when she got back.]

You're the best, Hermione. [It's tough having a character who is in the know. I used to have two of them. @_@] They can get us in, right? The other way has to work somehow. [He takes her plate and stands up to get it out of the way.] No problem, Hermione. Just tell me if you need anything else.

[She smiles at that. Ugh, yeah. I need to update her notebook too DX] It must. There has to be a way for us to leave. [Unless it really is a trick of the world itself and then she might just be at a loss... but she's not going to stop looking until she's exhausted every avenue.] I think I ought to rest for a while. I'm glad we got to talk, though.

[Try the timeline/plot posts for info?] I refuse to believe that there isn't. [He wouldn't be surprised if that was the case, though. Still, it's a daunting thought.] I'm glad we did, too. Just let me know if you need anything else, alright?

[that and the Lucetilocked posts.] Me, too. I just wish I could find it soon. [Everything is a daunting task when your title is the "Chosen One" or you're one of his companions.] Of course. [Standing is going to be tough. She cringes slightly as she tries to get up. The ankle's better but it's still sore. She probably shouldn't go to school for a couple of days, but like she'll admit that.]

Me too. [He moves to help her get up. That ankle still concerns him.] You alright to get back to your room?

[She nods.] I'll be fine. [Pride, Harry. She has it. She takes a breath and begins the trek to her room.]
