Ann sat at her computer on a Saturday morning, hugging her orange tabby cat with one hand, eating a cookie with the other, and watching an Inuyasha DVD at the same time she was scrolling through Harry Potter fanfiction. (A/N: If there's one thing worse than an HP addict, it's an HP/anime combo addict… )
"Yay!" Ann said, her eyes lighting up. "My favorite Ronmione story got updated!"
"Meow," the tabby cat whined. (Probably Catanese for "just get me the freakin' Meow Mix".)
"I got a review, too!" Ann continued, ignoring the cat. "And Lissy IMed me."
She read through Lissy's message quickly.

MissLissy111 has signed off.
Ann's eyes shrunk to slits, glimmering with anger that could only come from a serious Ronmione fan. She closed the IM window and decided to post another chapter of her fanfiction. She let the cat jump off of her lap and began to type swiftly.
Back at Hogwarts…Harry, Ron, and Hermione all sat at their usual table in Transfiguration class. Usually they could tolerate this class, but it was still early and just before they came, they'd hastily finished their History of Magic homework, which was a long, boring essay. (Except for Hermione, of course.)
"Now," Professor McGonagall said, pacing the aisles between tables, "we're all going to join up up for a project. Each pair in the class will pick a certain detailed object to turn into an animal and you will then write essays on the activity, explaining in-depth about the small details and what you did to transfigure the object perfectly."
Harry and Ron groaned silently while Hermione looked up thoughtfully. "Isn't that a bit easy for our level of skill?" she asked.
"Not entirely," Professor McGonagall said. "Please don't question my teaching, Miss Granger."
Ron waved his hand in the air. "Professor, can we use pieces of string?"
"I said detailed, Mr. Weasley."
"Well, string is detailed, I mean, what about the color? You have to try and get the right shade…"
Professor McGonagall sat down at her desk and started to go through a list of students with her quill. "Well, Mr. Weasley, since you seem to know a lot about that, I'll put you with Miss Granger. A pair of such intelligence will produce excellent results, I expect."
Ron grinned, thinking of having Hermione do most of the work.
"May I remind you, students," Professor McGonagall said, as if reading his mind, "that work will be done in class and I will watch you very closely to be sure you're not handing all the work to your partner."
Ron sighed exasperatedly. "Who's going to be my partner?" Harry asked.
A few people raised their hands. Professor McGonagall looked toward Neville. "Mr. Longbottom," she said, "why don't you work on the project with Mr. Potter?"
"Okay!" Neville said. Harry frowned. Neville was friendly enough, but he'd probably mess it up big time…
Meanwhile…Chibi-Annie: hi zurine!
