Going to hell. Emma Watson? I hate you and your underaged self.

So what exactly have Dan and Rupert been up to? they look like they've not slept in three days. Oh, the possibilities, ...

(Molly? If you're driver of the bus to hell, I'm, like, the ticket checker, I think.)

Yay! I make sense!

See, Hermione isn't going to be one of the teachers but one of the students. That's Draco's present to her. The only thing she has to do with the founding of the University is that Draco's going to put her on the child care hiring committee. Which, of course, is also part of her present because it means she'll know there's a safe place for Flora (the kid) to be while she's in school.

I haven't yet figured out how Ron feels about the whole school thing. (Harry's mad because Tom helped Draco with the whole thing, but wouldn't tell Harry anything about it.

Well, you make sense to me, which isn't saying all that much. ;p

Hm. I think Ron would be more ... something (annoyed/angry/resentful/hurt) at the fact that it's Draco doing this than about Hermione wanting it or getting it. I don't know the universe that well, obviously, but I think Ron's likely to still really dislike Draco, and something like this would practically be rubbing his face in the fact that he (Ron) can't give Hermione something she really wants (because he doesn't have the money).

Did that make sense?

Ron's definitely somewhat upset/jealous about Draco being friends with Hermione, but he can't say anything about it to Hermione, because she'll be unhappy with him. I hadn't thought of the rich/poor angle in terms of what Ron's feeling. Part of the issue is that the whole thing is from Draco's point of view, and since Draco and Ron don't exactly talk, it won't necessarily come out clearly in the story.

Ah, true that. Maybe Hermione realises it? She and Draco do talk.

[rsadelle]

I don't think Ron would let her realize. He doesn't want to upset her that way. Plus, he is happy for her about the university thing because it's making her so happy.

Hm. in that case, I don't know.

[rsadelle]

Me either. Since it won't actually be in the story, it seems like I wouldn't need to know, but I always need to know the while backstory to everything when I write.
