[One of our resident school teachers has just finished one of those important household tasks we must all face: grocery shopping. Of course, it's not so much shopping as stocking, considering the lack of a cash register in every store. Gelda's making her way back to her house, carrying two large bags filled to the brim with an assortment of groceries. Are they heavy? Yes. Yes, they are. She isn't going to complain, but if one were to offer her a hand, she wouldn't say no.

[Well, if writing obscenely long essays is what makes Hermoine happy... Anyway, they're nearing the house now.]

It just goes to show that Luceti never ceases to amaze.

It is a very unique place. Learning about all these different people is interesting. Everyone has something new to contribute, or a different perspective on everything. It's fascinating. [She's still happily carrying the bag, and she looks like she's brightened up even further. Essays are her best friend. After all, part of her Amortentia smell is new parchment.]

[Hermoine's mood has brightened, which means Gelda's job is done here. It still sucks that Ron is gone, of course, but at least Hermoine has something to keep her mind off things now.]

Indeed. As long as you harbor a curiosity towards other worlds, you won't find yourself growing bored in the least.

[When in doubt, give her homework.]

Of course. [She's going to walk as far as you want her to before setting the bag down / handing it to you again.] It's much more interesting learning about other magic and other worlds. Learning anything at all makes the environment more interesting.

[She'll accept the bag herself. It isn't that much trouble to carry it the rest of the way, really.]

This is exactly why I'm glad so many children are attending school here.

[She feels badly that they aren't quite there yet, but it's close enough, right?]

It's rather exciting to see so many people interested in learning so much. The subject matter is different and yet familiar for me. I love every minute of school, but I always have.

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

[It's definitely close enough, especially considering the fact that she initially intended to do walk the entire distance by herself.]

The lessons are challenging enough for you, I hope?

[loyalotter.livejournal.com]

[And that just wouldn't do with Hermione around.]

Of course, though I will never turn down a chance to do more.

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

Diligence is a fine trait to have.

[loyalotter.livejournal.com]

Of course. [She smirks.] You're certain you can manage those?

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

Yes, thank you. I'll be fine.

[loyalotter.livejournal.com]

[She smiles again, feeling much better now.]

All right. It was nice speaking to you outside class. Perhaps we'll be able to do so again soon.

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

That'd be wonderful. I'll look forward to it.

[Though, right now she'd like to get inside and put these groceries down.]

[loyalotter.livejournal.com]

As will I. [And with a smile and a wave, she'll walk off again.]

[Gelda returns the smile and watches her go, before continuing on the way to her house.]
