[she clears her throat, trying to sound as much of an authority figure as possible. She's done this as a prefect but it's an entirely new feeling when you're shouldering the burden of being a professor. Plus she has to pretend that this is all normal for those who have fake memories. Sigh]

Hello, students. Welcome back to another year at Hogwarts. I am the Arithmancy professor, Hermione Granger. Will all of my OWL and NEWT students please turn in your summer homework as soon as possible? We'll be getting right to work in your next class so I want to be sure you're prepared.

I'd also like to welcome all of the new Gryffindors. As your Head of House, I want you to know you can come to me with any questions. Good luck to our team today. I know that you'll all do our House proud. [she's really not into Quidditch, but she'll still support the team]

Hello. I'm actuallly from this world originally. We're in my school, so if you get lost or need help, just let me know.

I see... I hope everything will be okay... [back in the real Hogwarts she means. "Home isn't very safe right now" strikes a bit of a personal chord with her]

Um... I'm really enjoying myself here so far though! It's really fun.

I'm so glad to hear that.
