Third floor common room, Wednesday night

[smartestone]

Hermione's reached a point where she's just bored. She's out of things to read that she hasn't read a dozen times already, she's out of yarn for knitting, her workshops are almost over and they're not really the studying kind, and Crookshanks hasn't been around all day to play with. Not that he plays voluntarily, but shut up

Carmela wanders down a floor and into the common room.

"Hola," she waves to Hermione. "Ooh, what are we watching?" she says, peering inquisitively at the TV.

"I'm not sure, but the dogs are very cute," says Hermione, still watching Mythbusters intently.

"If it's got cute animals, then I'm in," Carmela grins and wanders over to the kitchen area. "You want a soda or something?" she says, opening the fridge and grabbing one for herself.

[smartestone]

"Sure," she calls back, still watching the television. "Is this sort of thing on all the time?"

Jim wandered up to the common room and smiled when he saw the Discovery Channel on. "Hey. What're you watching?"

[smartestone]

"I haven't seen the name of it yet," Hermione says brightly. "But I want to take notes."

[fat_halpert]

"You do know that it's summer, right?" Jim asked.

[smartestone]

"That doesn't matter in the slightest," she says. "You don't stop learning because the seasons change."

Naminé stepped into the room, peering curiously at the screen. The logo flashed, and she blinked at it. "Discovery? What are we discovering?"

[smartestone]

As the screen comes up showing the name, Hermione happily announces, "Mythbusters! It's fantastic!"

Such a geek.

[palestshadow]

Naminé smiled at her. "We're busting myths? That sounds rather fun. What sorts of myths?"

[smartestone]

"Ones about dogs," she says. "I don't know how I went this long without seeing it."

Mel walked into the CR and saw Hermione watching TV.

And her jaw dropped.

"Holy crap! Granger's watching TV? Rutting hell. I better call Xander and see what the apocalypse is."

[smartestone]

"It's educational!" Hermione protests. "They have educational television!"

[cantjossme]

"Isn't this the show where they blow stuff up?" Mel asked flopping on the couch. "Because that would be rocketship. And it's still TV Granger. I'm ashamed of you. Teacher's might find out and dock you a percentage point from your GPA."

[smartestone]

"Next time I'm taking notes," she says, still completely happily. "I'd be more than happy to write reports from what I've learned."

Sedative. Please.

Conner was going over his initial roster of kids signed up for the soccer camp, and so he was a little distracted as he wandered into the common room.

"Hey, anything good o --"

That's when he saw the screen, and gave an involuntary full-body shudder.

He was a little allergic to the Discovery Channel.

"Conner is have a conniption," Mel announced. "Anyone have anti-seizure medicine?"

[connernotconnor]

"Oh, ha ha, Mel," Conner said, rustling his papers at her. "I save that for when David Beckham is on the TV."

[cantjossme]

"Who?"
