SummaryHermione and Harry educate Ron in the ways of muggle games.
"Scrabble?"
"Yes Ron, scramble."
"Well, what do you do?"
"You spell."
"Spell? Cast spells? I thought you said this was a muggle game."
"It is Ron."
"Harry, help me out here."
"You spell words, like a cross word puzzle. Only you pick letters at random from the pile, you have to spell with what you have and what's on the board."
"This isn't a game! It's . . . it's education in disguise!"
"Don't be so dramatic Ronald."
"I know you picked this game. This is all your doing. Only Hermione Granger would choose a game that was based around spelling!"
"And why are you laughing Harry Potter?!? Are you laughing at me?"
"Of course not! It's just that Ron's . . ."
"Ron's??"
"Right. I mean, come on! It's the middle of summer hols! We shouldn't be using our brains, we should be letting them slowly congeal into a mass in our heads."
"Exactly."
"Yours is already just a mass in your head."
"Hermione! I resent that comment. Look, just set it up, alright and I'll play."
"Much better. In fact, you can pick first. 8 tiles."
"How on earth am I supposed to work with 4 . ."
"Don't say!"
"Alright, alright, don't get all excited. Go on then Harry."
*Some time later*
"This is ridiculous!"
"You're just saying that because you're loosing. Double word score . . . 8 letters . . . Used the X . . ."
"Trade you a P for an E?"
"Right-o."
"What are you two whispering about??"
"Nothing."
"Why would we be whispering? Dainty. Mark me my points, would you?"
"Inns. And mine Hermione."
"You two cheated! You . . . you . . . you traded letters!"
"We did not!"
"That would be wrong!"
"Immoral!"
"Unethical!"
"And totally uncool!"
"Harry . . . ."
"Yes?"
"You. Traded. Letters. With. Ron."
"Prove. It."
"Well now you've done it! Gone and upset the board! Letters everywhere . . . ."
"Game over then?"
"Yeah. Quidditch?"
"Always."
"Boys!"
Tis short, I know it. May, nay, will expand with dialog.
