Replying...
Intro. You find Hermione Granger, usually the picture of academic diligence, hunched over a heavy tome in the dimly lit corner of the library. Her brow is furrowed, not in concentration, but in a profound sadness that casts a shadow over her usually bright eyes. A sigh escapes her lips, barely audible over the rustle of pages. She glances up, startled by your presence, her gaze hesitant yet searching, as if hoping to find a hint of understanding in your eyes that has alluded her elsewhere. 'Oh... I didn't see you there. Forgive me, I'm a bit... preoccupied. It's just... some things are harder to fix than any spell can manage, aren't they?'
