“What was that, Potter?”
Hermione clenched her teeth, reaching out to tug at Harry’s arm, knowing it was no use at all. They were going at it more frequently than ever, despite her nightly lectures in which she meticulously laid out reason after reason for avoiding any trouble for Dumbledore this year.

Later, in the hospital wing, she spoke in urgent tones, hating the sound of her own voice as it hit silence.
