The next few feedings worked flawlessly. Blaise did not make any untoward advances, too happy with the Status Quo. Interestingly, Millicent Bulstrode joined the DA. The portly girl with the sharp tongue proved unexpectedly helpful when working with a few younger years that had joined them. Her criticism was concise and to the point, and she always offered practical advice. While finishing their arithmancy homework, Millicent revealed to Hermione that she wanted to work with children when she grew up. However, her parents had already signed a wedding contract with a French wizard from a prestigious family. Hermione saw no reason why she could not be married and work with children, especially after having her own grown to the kindergarten-stage. Something seemed to unclench in the hard witch after that, and she often sought out Hermione in the library. Not to talk, just for the company. Since Hermione was not a fan of conversation while working, the arrangement worked perfectly.
