Room 308, Tuesday morning
Hermione heard the announcement. She thought this would be a huge failure, yes. What's really scary is that it doesn't even alarm her anymore that her first thought was to spend tonight in the hall in a sleeping bag.

She'd made the decision that for every announcement, Umbridge needed to be negatively reinforced. Thusly, she was sitting on her bed, knitting more oddly-shaped socks and wondering whether the dildo cozy conga line should wait a couple days, or if she should just keep up with it the whole week.

[Mostly for people interested in this post. I'm headed to work soon, but will check when I can throughout the day and be back at 5:30 PST. Yay SP!

	Aravis had been mad yesterday. Now, after a visit to Umbridge's office, Aravis was not only mad but apparently had pinkeye. But after her trip was so unsuccessful, she had realized that the only way to actually do anything about Umbridge was to go to the one person here who actually knew what they were dealing with. Which was why she was knocking. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Hermione looked up and started to smile, but that was cut off by a "What happened to you?" (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	"That stupid woman pointed that stupid stick at me and now I can barely see," Aravis replied, blinking a few times. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	Hermione sighed and rolled her eyes, getting up to go look at her. "She needs a new hobby," she decided. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	"I gave her a false name and she knew it," Aravis added. "I think she's got the whole of the class rosters memorized." (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	"She probably does," Hermione said. "She should have access to all our records. Now, that should go away on its own, but I can try to lift the curse, if you'd like." (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	notqueenyet 2007-08-08 01:47 am UTC (link)
	"If you'd like to try," Aravis said, blinking a bit so she could see more clearly. "I hate her." (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	smartestone 2007-08-08 01:54 am UTC (link)
	"With good reason," Hermione agreed, and stepped back a little to point her wand at Aravis to lift the curse. Of course, Umbridge probably had more experience with curses than Hermione did with ending them, so it might not have worked perfectly. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	Aravis blinked a bit more. Well. The watering had stopped a bit, but otherwise she felt the same. "...did it work?" (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	smartestone 2007-08-08 02:16 am UTC (link)
	"Sorry," Hermione frowned, letting that be her answer. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	notqueenyet 2007-08-08 02:20 am UTC (link)
	"It's all right," Aravis sighed. "I'll wear a veil for the rest of the day." She managed a smile. "I knocked over her teacup! With my foot!" (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	smartestone 2007-08-08 02:25 am UTC (link)
	"That's good!" Hermione said. "What did she say to that?" (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	notqueenyet 2007-08-08 02:27 am UTC (link)
	"That was when she did the thing to my eyes," Aravis said, frowning. "I yelled at her and put my feet up on her desk, though, and she didn't do anything but accuse me of lying again. Which I actually was." (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	smartestone 2007-08-08 02:58 am UTC (link)
	"Well, at least you know you made an impression?" (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	notqueenyet 2007-08-08 03:01 am UTC (link)
	"But she still doesn't have my name," Aravis said, pleased. "So what are we doing about her? I...you know, I want to do more, but I'm not stupid enough to go charging in there with my sword or anything. And she's clearly more dangerous than I thought. She's got this...quill?" (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	smartestone 2007-08-08 03:03 am UTC (link)
	"I know about the quill," Hermione said. "She used it on a friend of mine at my other school. I'm trying to go about it a little less... forcefully. Meaning I'm trying to annoy her to the point that she doesn't want to be here anymore. And I could use the numbers." (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	notqueenyet 2007-08-08 03:06 am UTC (link)
	"I like annoying her," Aravis said thoughtfully. "How so?" (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	smartestone 2007-08-08 03:09 am UTC (link)
	"So far I've charmed coconuts to make the sounds of horse hooves outside her office and made cozies throw themselves at her," Hermione said. "I'm looking for more things along those lines, even better if it's not magic." (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	notqueenyet 2007-08-08 03:20 am UTC (link)
	Aravis thought for a moment. "We could alter the sugar for her tea. Switch it for salt, or worse." (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	smartestone 2007-08-08 03:22 am UTC (link)
	Hermione actually shuddered. "I think that would work pretty well," she said, making a face. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	notqueenyet 2007-08-08 03:24 am UTC (link)
	"I'd just guess she uses a lot," Aravis replied, making a face. "Can we do something about those damn plates?" (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	smartestone 2007-08-08 03:28 am UTC (link)
	"Sam mentioned him and Dean shooting them," Hermione told her. It should horrify her that this didn't faze her. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	notqueenyet 2007-08-08 03:30 am UTC (link)
	Aravis grinned. "Good for them. If the mewling of the remaining plates doesn't irritate her, though, then I expect something like incessant humming outside her door wouldn't do much, would it?" (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	smartestone 2007-08-08 03:39 am UTC (link)
	"Of course not. I'm sure it wouldn't even register," Hermione said seriously. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)
