~ooO Support : Hannah Abbott Ooo~

Hannah was quite pleased when Hermione Granger drew the Sword from the Stone. Most witches would have expected and preferred Harry Potter to have been the One but Hannah personally preferred to have Hermione Granger as the new Queen. Harry had power but he never pushed until he was backed into a corner. Not a good quality in a monarch. But Hermione, no she'd push and pull and research and test the limits and go her own way. And Hannah respected that. Hannah was content to go with the flow but she knew society needed leaders, shining examples of What to Be and Do. She preferred such attention to be on Hermione, not herself. The only fly in the salve was Hermione's Consort.

Oh, there was nothing wrong with the wizard himself. He was so polished and well-mannered and so clearly devoted to Hermione that everyone could see he would never ever support the blood-purity movement. But that didn't mean every idiot out there would think logically and see that. The only thing to do was ignore such fools. On the other hand, Hannah was very interested to know how the pureblood faction was taking the hit. The hard-core blood-purists probably believed their idol was playing a long-game. They would probably be plotting to 'help' kill Hermione. They'd never succeed. Hermione didn't survive the Voldemort War by being a fool and Hannah doubted Salazar Slytherin would have been Fates-Matched and willing to marry a Muggleborn if he was going to kill her a few months later.

Hannah really had to do something extra nice for Hermione, for asking Hannah to be one of the Queen's Ladies-in-Waiting. Having a front-side seat on all this plotting and scheming was better than reading about it in Witch Weekly's gossip column.
