asgardeventide | second spell ✰ video/text, action to odin house

( People have probably had enough of being woken up in the middle of the night, so if your bracelet is safely off, you won't notice a strange message coming through. It almost sounds like someone is rubbing a blanket up against their microphone; the video feed shows a pitch dark room, moving every now and then ... almost as if someone is thrashing around a bit in bed. Because that's exactly what is happening right now. Every now and then the strange static is punctuated by feverish murmuring.

Hermione Granger is having a nightmare. )

No.. Not Harry, I swear I'll be good, I promise..

( Her voice is low, begging, pleading, whispered. You wouldn't catch it unless you turned up your volume to try and discern what the strange muttering was. )

I did everything right, I swear; I just forgot .. please, don't .. it's not .. I won't --

( More thrashing. The video feed is obscured as the whispering reaches a crescendo and then --

A muffled scream. If you're in Odin house, you probably heard it, especially if you room nearby. If not, it's a little alarming as the video feed cuts out just as Hermione finds the lightswitch and floods her bedroom with light.

About twenty minutes later, there is a text post for the morning. )

Does anyone know if it's possible to brew sleeping potions here?

Threaded | Top-Level Comments Only

Yeah, um. Draco makes them for me.

( Quick, Hermione, come up with an excuse. Text for now because she's shaking so hard she looks like a leaf. )

I wanted to study a fairly simple potion that I make often at home, and I came across that one. Do you think he'd give me a sample if I asked?

ummmm possibly? but i would be careful using them with the kinds of nightmares that you were having it just makes them harder to wake up from sometimes

[Naturally Draco's awake. And actually, he's probably sitting on the bed next to Jade and reading over her shoulder (but he won't let Hermione know that.) Give him a few moments before he'll respond on his own.]

You realize the apothecary wasn't just for show, don't you?

I'm pretty sure that there's at least a few places you can get sleep aids. You should try A Pinch of Sage - It's an apothecary run by Samantha Grey.

It is. I think Draco knows how and so does Euridice. I've had her sleeping potion before.

[She hasn't been doing much sleeping herself. It's stupid but with Kaz gone the mushroom just feels so lonely and it's killing her. So when she sees the text entry the next morning she actually decides to get off her ass and reply.]

If Draco is fussy about giving you one of our sleeping potions let me know.

[She can't help with sleeping potions, but Saki's not really good at ignoring those needing help.]

Are you going to be all right?

What do you mean?

( A long pause. )

I just want to study the makeup of the potion.

( It takes her a long time to formulate a reply with her normal amount of bite. )

With you running it? I assume it was.

( When the video feed flicks back on, it's obvious that Hermione has had as shower, and she looks a lot calmer. Or she's attempting to give off an air of calm. )

Yes.

( She should say something. )

It was nothing. Just a bad dream. I didn't mean to worry anyone.

( Hermione had completely forgotten to ask Samantha Grey. That was probably a good place to try. )

Thank you. I've met Samantha before and she seemed very nice and helpful.

Thank you.

( And because she feels compelled. )

I want to study it.

( Whenever she turns on the video again, she seems a lot calmer - and her hair is damp, as though she's had a shower. )

Yes. They'd probably have them. Are the potions .. effective?

[And because Euri is a dumbass she believes it.]

Why? We've tested it, it works.

[ Euri you are the best dumbass Hermione loves you. ]

I want to see for myself what the makeup is. It's not you or him - it's a personal thing.

She is - She's a friend of mine and she's done a lot for me in that regard. Good luck getting some help with your rest - As someone who deals with occasional insomnia myself, I know how trying it can be.

Thank you.

You must have taken the same herbalism classes as Draco, right?

Yes. More or less.

Come off it, Granger. Remember who pulled high marks in Potions. Anyway, it was a product that was high in demand and I just so happened to create a formula to provide.

Only because Snape was kissing your arse every time I turned around.

( There is a long, awkward pause. )

I only want it so I can take it apart, Malfoy. I'm not going to take it.

And because I'm brilliant. Obviously.

[...um. That's weird.]

Why the hell do you think I'd let you take apart my formula?

Miss Hermione? Are you alright? Are you hurt?

( Rolling her eyes at that. )

Why the hell do you think I'd take anything you give me? It's not as if I'm going to turn around and sell it.

( Except.. she wants the sleeping draught. She needs it. She hasn't slept properly in days. But admitting that she needs it from him is a bit too much right now. )
