I-... I know  that I've been scarce since- since recently. I suppose I just haven't managed to think of the best way to properly apologize. I said and did many things that I-... that I think we all know I didn't mean. And to those who had never met me prior to that event, I'm truly sorry for such a horrible first impression. If I said or did

[Video] - I wish this thing would stop filling in titles automatically.

I feel like I should make one of these posts myself. But you couldn't help it, Hermione. And neither could I.

{Have a motherly smile.}

I think we are going to have to experiment when it comes to wands. I suggest we do so in the Wastes.

[Video] - Yeah, the browser at work does that; it's extremely annoying. >_>

[bookish_lioness]

Lily....

[There's so much she wants to say, but really, this is hard enough as it is without looking at Harry's mum and wishing she had her own here. When she speaks, her voice is a little hoarse from unspent tears, not that she'd admit it.]

That would make sense. But if we go there, there's no telling how long we'll end up there. People may get worried.

[Video] D| If it could read my mind, great. But it doesn't even get close.

[thewinterdoe]

Is there something you'd like to talk about? Something you need to talk about?

{She can sense those tears, Hermione.}

Not if we take our PCDs.

[Video]... if computers could read minds, I'd be frightened. >_>

[bookish_lioness]

... no. This is just... it's hard. And I'm tired. And I want to go home. That's the gist of it, and it doesn't warrant a real discussion.

I took mine last time, and it didn't seem to help. Time is odd out there.

[He smiles at her, just a bit coolly.]

All forgiven.

[bookish_lioness]

[She tries not to frown, or look frightened or humiliated or any other such thing. She ends up doing a bit of all of that.]

Monsieur, I'm so sorry for how I behaved. If you wish to meet with me now that I'm in my right mind again, I would be only too happy to regain my good name. Likewise, if you'd rather not meet with me ever again, I would understand completely.

[population_ctrl]

Ah, none of that, Mademoiselle. [A small wave of his hand.] Can I stil pursuade you to look at the list we talked about?

[video]

[bookish_lioness]

List? Oh, regarding the-... yes, of course. Do you have it ready?

[Friends just magically show up when pie is involved!] Oh, that's brilliant! Ron mentioned trying to preserve them. But it seems a shame, since apples taste so much better when they're fresh. At least a few pies to hand out would be nice, don't you think?

[bookish_lioness]

[Hush. It's still magical.]

Of course, I'm sure most of us will be surviving on preserved apples for months, but for now, while they're so plentiful, why not do something different with them? Admittedly, apple pie isn't wholly original, but.... [She shrugs, as though to say that she doesn't really care.]

[Video]

[buntails]

[So pinged. And you get only one word.]

Pie?

[Yes, that's drool at the corner of her mouth.]

[Video]

[bookish_lioness]

[Oh, Usagi. You must get on so well with Ron.]

I take it you like apple pie?

[Video]

[buntails]

Apple pie is one of the best! [So are dozens of types of other pies, cakes, cookies, ice cream... Someone has a very bad sweet tooth. And it's worse in Ads where sugar is so rare.]

[Video]

[bookish_lioness]

I'm personally more partial to peach pie, but I certainly won't be picky here. If I get enough raw materials, I can make you a pie.

[twotimingmutt]

So I'm guessin' you don't feel like hitting on me anymore, right?

[video]

[bookish_lioness]

[Have some wide eyes and a dark blush.] Oh!

Er-....

I-... I'm sorry. I didn't mean to pressure you into anything that time....

Re: [video]

[twotimingmutt]

Keh! Don't worry about it. I won't bring it up if you don't.

[bookish_lioness]

[She breathes a very huge sigh of relief at that.] Thank you so much for understanding.

For all that, we didn't exactly exchange proper introductions, did we? I'm Hermione Granger.
