[ferusleana]

[She turns on the video as she's coming in from spending the better part of the day out and about in the snow.  Hermione brushes the white powder off of her coat because wouldn't you know it, she met a rather large pile of snow on the way home.]

First the leaves and now giant mounds of snow.  Honestly, isn't the weather ever normal around here?  The

Comments

Action [Because Harry just woke up from a nap XD; ]

[sonuvasnitch]

[Harry opens the door to his bedroom and looks out to see Hermione. He's still surprised by how much the cottage has changed since he and D were living here, but it's really not unwelcome. It just feels more like home.]

Hey Hermione.

[He tucks his own dreamberry back into his pocket.]

Action [Naps are always good~ XD]

[ferusleana]

[She's emptying her bag full of goodies all over the kitchen table so she can put them away. It's an assortment of food, clothes, books and other supplies. When he comes out Hermione gives him a smile.]

Hey Harry. Did you sleep well?

Action [Especially when you're a busy po-po~

[sonuvasnitch]

[Harry can't help his curiosity and has to go and poke around in what Hermione bought.]

Yeah, I needed it. You said my jacket was in the closet yeah?

Action [Saving people from scarecrows and snowmen while breaking rules!]

[ferusleana]

[Most of the food is for cooking with but he might find a few junk food snacks here and there. The clothes are mainly the coats, scarves and mittens she got for Luna and Kiki Books from the library that she's borrowing along with parchment, quills, ink and general toiletries. There's a blue one scarf that she hangs around his neck.]

I figured you did otherwise I would have asked if you wanted to come with me. It is and your scarf wasn't salvageable after last year.

Action

[sonuvasnitch]

[Harry looks down at the scarf and smiles softly and a bit sadly to himself.]

It's alright...I'd come to terms with never getting that one back.

[It was meant to be a light joke though it may have come across as a bit too meloncholy. He heads to the closet and pulls out his coat. It feels as if it's been forever since he's seen it but he pulls it on. Sadly, it still fits i.e. Harry hasn't grown at all.]

How do I look?

Action

[ferusleana]

[Even if it was just a scarf it was Harry's scarf and her friend had already lost enough.]

I might still have more of your belongings in my bag. Maybe later you, me and Ron can go through them all together.

[She abandons the task of putting things away to follow him to the closet. This time last year it had been just her and Harry avoiding Voldemort, Death Eaters and Snatchers while trying to figure out what to do. Once he has the coat on Hermione fusses over it a little before small smile tugs on her lips.]

You look like Harry. [A momentary pause.] I could get you a new coat, if you'd like.

Action

[sonuvasnitch]

[Harry smiles as Hermione fusses. He remembers that time all too well. It wasn't full of happy memories, but being with Hermione had made losing Ron for that short time all the more bearable.]

It's alright. I still like this one.

Action

[ferusleana]

[The two of them had been through a lot over the years that Ron hadn't been privy to and only really got to hear stories of. Together they had visited Godric's Hollow and saw his parents grave for the very first time, when they'd gone back in time to save Buckbeak and Sirius, and even all the way back to first year after Ron had been knocked unconscious during the life-size Wizard's Chess game. She also knew that the boys had spent a lot of time together without her too. Through it all they may have had their fights and been upset with each other but they always overcame any obstacle together - so she can't help but fuss over one of the important people in her life.]

Alright. [Now she moves away back to the kitchen to pull out what remained of last night's dinner and held it out for Harry to take. It was more than enough for three people.]

D contacted me. He said he wanted to see you as soon as possible and to bring food for Cooro.

[She smiles.] You should invite your friends over for Christmas dinner.

Action

[sonuvasnitch]

[D...he did need to see how the dhampir was doing...Of course Christmas brought someone else to mind as well]

Sure thing. I have a feeling we'll need to set up a tent though. I think between all of us the house might get a bit crowded.

[After all it wasn't just D and himself anymore. There were five people living in this cottage originally meant for at most four.]

Action

[ferusleana]

[With the idea of a tent put into her head Hermione was already thinking of what they'd need to do in order to accomplish the task. They'd have to get one of course, clear away the snow, set up the tent, make sure it was nice and toasty inside so no one froze to death, a table, chairs, decorations and food. Honestly it was almost like watching Molly plan for a wedding and Hermione would need everyone's help which meant she'd have to start handing out tasks now.]

You and Ron can look for a tent. A long table and chairs as well. We'll set it up together. The girls and I will start planning for thirty dinner guests.

[The three of them hadn't really had a Christmas last year so Hermione wanted to make up for it this year. Five people was a lot to put into one small cottage but a good Undetectable Extension Charm would sort it all out. Or the girls could move to the cottage across the way but Hermione liked the level of noise and company within the place.]

Action

[sonuvasnitch]

[Harry smiled as he watched the wheels turn in Hermione's brain. He knew that a few more months down the road Hermione and Ron would be together.]

You and Ron will be good together.

Action

[ferusleana]

[Oh dear Merlin, Harry! Saying things definitely interrupt her thought process. They've only kissed once and fought more times then Ron can probably remember. Now she's turning away from him to hide that blush on her face, completely flustered.]

What brought that up all of the sudden?

Action

[sonuvasnitch]

[Well it's the truth after all.]

Just the way you looked just then. Reminded me a bit about Molly that's all.

Action

[ferusleana]

[She doesn't have a clue about their future and to be honest she doesn't want to know. There are too many possibilities and things could easily change if she was aware of them.]

I'm not sure if it's such a good thing to be reminded of someone's mother in that manner.

[Hopefully Ron wasn't reminded of Molly when he looked at her.]

Action

[sonuvasnitch]

[Harry laughs. It might not be a good thin but you know what Freud says.]

I'm not sure it's necessarily a bad thing. It's a dreamworld after all. I...I don't think you remembered your first time here when you got back into our world.

Action

[ferusleana]

[Some of Freud's work is like delving into Divination for Hermione.]

I suppose it's not bad in some ways. [Maybe bad in other ways though.] No, I certainly didn't and I don't remember it now but several people thought it important to point out certain facts to me. [She knows, oh does she know.]
