Sunday Evening - Fifth Floor Common Room

Peter was sitting on the couch with a bowl of popcorn in front of him and a box of cookies from J. GOB.  He'd found some Coca-Cola (and still couldn't get over the fact it came in cans now) and was flipping through the channels on the TV.

Oooh, war movie.  That looked interesting.  The planes looked familiar too.  Peter sat forward in his seat as the title rolled.  Rescuing Corproral Smith?  Did they make movies about World War II now?

"Magic, no. Demons and zombies are a bit new, but not too traumatic."

"I'm a witch, yes," says Hermione. She has no problem saying it in front of ordinary people anymore. She's relieved people almost expect it.

Zack pursed his lips. "I don't suppose you'd have any idea of the science behind your magic?"

"That depends on what you mean by 'science', I think," she says. "I don't know the reason for it, no."

"Do you at least know if it follows any rules?"

"Spells need to be said with a certain pronunciation and inflection and wand movement, or they won't work. Sometimes it can cause them to backfire."

"Like a bad chemical reaction," Zack said, thinking of Tyler's attempt to blow himself up.

"Something like that, yes," she says slowly. She almost adds only without chemicals, but decides it's easier this way, so she leaves it alone.
