I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

Hermione?

We all want to know if you're all right. I mean, Pansy said last night that you didn't look well when you came back to their common room. Is there anything you need that we could get you?

What did they do to you?

What can we do?

We just

We've been talking about it, Nev and the twins and Lee, y'know, and we want to know how to help. Because it's not right. And it's not okay that this sort of thing happens. And it'll just keep happening, and probably get worse. And we can't just go on pretending we don't notice.

I mean, we couldn't help Terry before he left, but we're not just going to let awful things happen to you.
 
 
 
Have either of you others seen her today yet? Is she okay?

I don't know what exactly happened. Neither Harry nor Draco wanted to talk about it.

If I were going to guess -- I would guess that Harry cruciated her, but because someone else said he had to, or because he thought if he did, that would be the end of it and nothing worse would happen. Because he looked like someone who'd done Dark Arts, but absolutely not like someone who'd enjoyed it. He looked like he hated himself, and not like he had succeeded in convincing himself that she deserved it. Does that make sense?

Draco was trying really hard to be pleasant at the party but he looked furious at the whole world, when he let it slip.
