Order Only Private Message to Hermione
Feb. 12th, 2014 10:07 pmSo this is a bit awkward. I need some advice and I think you might be the best person to ask.
My family acquired a muggleborn girl after Shelley was born. Since I was at Hogwarts at the time, she was just there when I arrived home next. She was introduced to me as Jenni. Last spring watching the littles talk to her was one of the final straws in me realising how messed up the protectorate is. I've been trying to figure out what I really know about her and everything I keep coming up with my parents told me and I don't know if I can trust it. I'm actually not even sure Jenni's her real name. Is it Jennifer? Something else and Mum just picked Jenni out of the air?
I don't know how to approach her or what to say. I don't want to get my family in trouble and draw attention to us by helping her escape, so I don't want to get her hopes up that direction. I also don't want to come across like Jeremy. I'm not interested her that way. I'd like to get to know her a bit and get her to trust me enough that she'll listen when I'm able to tell her I have somewhere for her to run to when the time is right, if she wants. It's like setting up for a Wronski Feint, once I start the dive err conversation when to pull out becomes a question I'll have to be able to answer in a heartbeat before it splatters all over the pitch. She's just a girl in a bad situation, so I can't ignore her and her situation like I used to.
