"Hermione," she says after a split second, taking his hand and rejecting the urge to say someone Steph actually did call. Her handshake is firm, but brief- she clearly doesn't want to waste time when she has no idea of the extent of Steph's remaining injuries, and nor is she quite sure what to make of Jason.

Instead, therefore, she says, "Good luck on the blood stains."

Ah, small talk. Maybe it comes easier to those who've never spent upwards of seven hours straight in a library. She is being wry, but it falls slightly flat considering the situation.

She follows Steph as quickly as possible, mind buzzing with questions.
