Who: Hermione Granger and you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: On the Vanquish
When: 30/11 onwards

I think it might be time for me to ask for a little bit of advice.

I've been here a while, now, and I'm normally very good at not missing people. I used to give people tips on how to feel better about it, and it used to work for me, too, back when I was in the Drabwurld and there was a war to focus on. I would go and look in the library, but I can't imagine there's much of a help section there - dreadful, honestly - so.

If anyone has any suggestions on how to cheer yourself up, I'd be glad to hear it.

(Also: I have potions for all the ships on the fleet, now. If you'd like a set for your Lab, please let me know and I can bring them over!)

I'm sure Anders would love to see me using my magic in action.

[ She'd enjoyed seeing Wolfe's, after all. ]

I got used to the chance of not having magic at all in the Drabwurld. There was this granite that negated all magical effects, so it seemed prudent.

[wolfehawke]

What, a rock?

[He shouldn't be so surprised honestly, considering lyrium, but granite isn't magical or antimagical. It's just rock. He shakes his head and shrugs it off.]

Anyway, I'll let him know. Your magic is quite a bit more subtle than ours with your conjuring, so it's interesting to watch. Though Anders in general is more subtle than I am anyway so who knows, maybe you two have more in common with your casting.

[brainiest]

A special kind of rock. It was called Blood Granite and when I was kidnapped it's what stopped me from being able to escape.

[ She says, casually. ]

That might be the case! I know that my world and my magic are wildly different to yours already, so it's going to be interesting no matter what.

[wolfehawke]

Absolutely. I'll talk to him as soon as I get back, or you can shoot him a message.

[Oh great, now he knows there's a world where even the rocks know blood magic. Thanks for that. He puffs a little breath, then grins and tugs her into a half hug with the one arm he has across her shoulders.]

Feeling better, little sister?

[brainiest]

Both works.

[ Hermione... Doesn't bring up her own foray into blood magic and focusses on cuddling up to her brother instead. ]

Much better. Thank you... For coming here, and listening.

wrap?

[wolfehawke]

Any time.

[He kisses the side of her head affectionately to where she can feel more than see his little, pleased smile.]
