fact-checking hp fic against the first book never fails to be completely worthwhile, you get reminded of the most incredible stupid details

Ron,
however, was to be working with Hermione Granger. It was hard to tell
whether Ron or Hermione was angrier about this. She hadn’t spoken to
either of them since the day Harry’s broomstick had arrived.

like hermione granger was so mad at harry and ron over the broomstick harry got from mcgonnagal in the third week that she didn’t talk to either of them until halloween. that’s five weeks. harry and ron went and saved a girl from a mountain troll that they not only disliked, but who disliked them back so intensely she wouldn’t talk to them for the entire fucking month of october and a week of the previous september. 

this says something nice about what good boys harry and ron are. but it also says something really impressive about how serious goddamn business hermione goddamn granger’s anger is, was, and presumably always will be.
