[ The feed opens with Hermione in the library - where else would she be? - in the Seelie court, a pile of books and papers around her. It's obvious she's been reading and taking notes, going deeper and deeper into as many of the shelves as she can (and the only place she hasn't been allowed access is the Restricted Area, which she is going to get permission for soon). After a moment of brushing her hair out of her face and forcing a slightly brighter smile she leans forward, into the 'camera'. ]

Hello, everyone. My name is Hermione Granger, for anyone I haven't met yet, and I was just wondering if you'd mind answering a few questions I have?

[ She pauses for a moment, grabbing a piece of paper with a list on it and smoothing it out. ]

I was wondering if you'd all be able to tell me about magic, or powers, or anything that might not be considered 'normal' to the average human or otherwise that exist in your worlds? Maybe magical creatures, too, or beings that you think do not transcend to other places that you've heard of. In my world, if it's alright to call them that, we have magic, magical creatures and humans, giants, werewolves, vampires... But a lot of worlds - or universes, I suppose - don't.

[ She smiles, almost sheepish, shy. ]

I hope this isn't too intrusive, I'm just curious and I'd love to learn more, if I'm able.

Honestly, Gin, you don't know the half of it.

So tell me and I'll have the whole of it.

How long have you got? There's seven years to go through, you know.

[ She starts laughing. ]

Fair point, I do know most of it. You lot practically lived with us, I pieced enough together.

You're right there. We shared a room enough for you to know almost everything through osmosis.

It's the next year I don't know very much about.

[ Yeah, it kind of sucks. ]

We're alive. That's what matters, Ginny.

I know. [ Wryly, ] I just hate being late to the party.

I know all about that. [ She smiles, though, enjoying the lightness of the conversation compared to the rather dark subject. ] I'm sure you'll survive somehow.

I'm not used to it, but yeah, I reckon I will. Constant Vigilance! All that.

[ She still wants to know what happens beyond winning. She wants to know what they've lost. She's been prepared for the whole war for the possibilities of who might not make it to the end — she thought she wouldn't, honestly. ]

I don't think we'll ever forget those words, will we?

[ She hesitates, because -- she knows what's going through Ginny's mind. It's what went through hers before they got back to Hogwarts, before they knew what had happened. ]

Is there anything you want to know?

Want to know? Yeah. Loads. Should know, that's the better question. You know better than anyone else how tricky time is, how knowing can muck things up.

That all depends on if we're going to remember all this when we go home. [ A pause, then she shakes her head. ] Does everyone know about that now? It was supposed to be a secret.

[ She laughs. ]

D'you know how many things I overhear?

You Weasleys are all as bad as each other, aren't you?

You've known us long enough to answer that for yourself.

Unfortunately for me.

[ teasing, teasing. ]
