Loki and Hermione: I Had to See You

Chapter 6 - So you're Loki...

Hermione

It was a very stressful day for Ron, it was Quidditch Tryouts. So of course, he wouldn't stop talking about it, which was driving Hermione nuts.

"Ronald, you'll be fine!" she told him.

"But what if I don't make it?"

"Honestly, I don't care, just shut up!!!"

"Ron, there's only one other person going out for keeper. You'll be fine!" said Harry.

"Who?" asked Ron.

"Cormac McLaggen."

Hermione made a gagging motion. "Ron, kick his ass for me, he's been stalking me for a week now!"

"But he's really good!" moped Ron.

"I don't care. Just do it," she said. She stood up, and walked to her dorm.  She pulled out her book, quill, and some purple ink. She opened the book to a new, page.

Loki?

I'm here.

Ron's driving me nuts

What's going on now?

Quidditch tryouts tomorrow and Ron's going out for a position that only one other person is going out for too.

So?

He's Cormac McLaggen, and he's really good.

I see. One question.

Anything?

What's quidditch?

Wizarding sport played on brooms. There are 7 players on each team, a keeper, 3 chasers, 2 beaters and a seeker. Chasers try to throw the red quaffle into a hoop for points, keepers defend the hoops. Beaters protect their team from bludgers, cursed metal balls that zoom around the field, trying to knock players off their brooms. Seekers look for the golden snitch, which is the size of a walnut, extremely fast, and nearly impossible to see. Catch the snitch the game is over.

Sounds easy enough.

Not really. That's just the overview. I should lend you my copy of Quidditch Through the Ages.

I look forward to it. So tryouts are tomorrow?

Yeah, why?

Just making sure I read you correctly.

Harry, Ron, and Ginny want to meet you sometime.

Next time I see you, you can introduce me.

Sounds good. Fair warning, Ron thinks you work for the Dark Lord, and you're going to try to kill me. I have to go. It's almost dinner.

I assure you, I'm not going to kill you. I'll talk to you later.

Bye!

She closed her book, put away everything, and walked with Harry, Ron, and Ginny to dinner.
