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!)

Do we even have the right kind of music for that?

I've got my phone. And a mad-genius who accidentally programmed the microwave to act like a speaker. I think you know him.

[ UNDERSTATEMENT. ]

[brainiest]

I can think of a few people that fit that description, which ought to be a little frightening.

Hint: I'm on the Blameless.

[brainiest]

Oh.

[ Does everyone know? ]

[ladybro]

Hi. Kate Bishop. Cisco talks about you a lot.[ and he's, like, one of her best friends here so she reserves the right to tease you ALL mercilessly. ]

[brainiest]

Wait. He does?

[ladybro]

[ ... ]

Was I not supposed to say that? Is that not good news?

[ look you just want one person to go dancing with you and this happens.... ]

text »

[brainiest]

No, no, it's wonderful news, really. I just hadn't realised that he had.

[ She's absolutely 100% pink right now. ]

I mean. It's nice to hear.

[ladybro]

Good.

[ a JOB WELL DONE, then. ]

[brainiest]

I'm not going to ask what he says about me. It's none of my business.

[ Someone save her from this sudden ridiculous turn. ]

But - microwave music player.

[ladybro]

Microwave music player. It doesn't really do the music justice, but we make do.

[brainiest]

Does this count as a formal invitation to see the microwave music player?

text »

[ladybro]

Yep. Hope you like EDM because I don't really do Top 40.

text »

[brainiest]

Considering the last time I heard any kind of music it was 1998, I think I don't do Top 40 either.

text »

[ladybro]

What, really?

[ that's so cool. ]

text »

[brainiest]

That's what year it was before I turned up at the Drabwurld, and then turned up here.

[ladybro]

Were the Spice Girls still together?

[ she's not a 'top 40' kinda gal, but that doesn't mean she's not CULTURED. ]

text »

[brainiest]

I think so?

text »

[ladybro]

But?

[ because that didn't read with a lot of conviction. ]

text »

[brainiest]

I didn't really pay much attention to muggle music.

[ladybro]

[ but weren't you raised by-- katie stops. it's not fair, she supposes, to go trotting out pop culture knowledge. she swallows her guesses and decides that, timeline-wise, maybe hermione really wasn't paying attention. she's not billy or teddy; she doesn't remember the books well enough. ]

Fair enough. I'm more of a Bach girl, myself.

[ Hermione has no idea, of course, despite the fact that she's practically dating one of her biggest fanboys. All she can do is go with what's being said to her. ]

We listened to wizarding singers. Witches that sang about cauldrons of burning love.

[ladybro]

Cauldrons of burning love? That sounds like a bad batch of moonshine or something.

text »

[brainiest]

That's what wizarding music seemed to be all about.
