"You should have come to me earlier, I'm sure that the Council could have come up with a few hands to help you get situated in no time at all. Actually, I'm fairly certain that the Building Crew would be more than willing to help. Which is less to say that it's part of their job description in the slightest, and more that the group is so lovely and generous on the whole. And, naturally, quite strong," Hermione replied, her expression pleased as she thought of all the people on the island who chose to give their time, effort, and services without a word of complaint, without expecting a single penny (or island equivalent) in return. "Although, now that I think about it... it wouldn't hurt if we actually had a designated group for people to go to for moving services."
Her gaze grew distant before she shook her head quickly, resolving not to bore Kate with the rather frequent thoughts she had regarding the way that the island functioned, both the land itself and the services people provided on it. Considering how small the group was, it was truly rather remarkable that they managed to cover so much, without everyone even volunteering on a regular basis.
But she'd always felt that the island tended towards picking remarkable people, after all.
"I shouldn't bore you with talk of labor, though," Hermione went on, eyes narrowing lightly as a hesitant smile toyed at her lips. "At least, I have the impression that your life's been much more interesting as of late than my own."
