"Of course I want to help you," Hermione does her best not to sound too affronted, knowing how difficult adjusting was, but she still feels a little put off. Shaking her head, she ignores it and continues, letting her hand drop as she sees him tense. No touching; that was something she had to make sure to remember, otherwise something bad might happen... Even if it did technically add to both of their quotas.

"I know it's rather hard to believe, but everything you've read in that letter is true," she continues before she shakes her head. "There isn't actually a way out - not so far, anyway. I've been studying this place as much as I can but it seems like we're well and truly trapped." While Hermione may be brave and bold, being the bearer of bad news isn't exactly something she enjoys. Taking a deep breath, she forces a soft smile, trying to act as comforting as she can given the situation.

"As for the terminals..." She leans over, moving to press the buttons so she can explain with props. "They connect to other terminals throughout the city. Therefore, they're only able to project video messages, audio messages or text messages within the limits of Saeng Seong to other terminals in the city. Unfortunately, there's no real means of contacting our home worlds using them - believe me, I've tried."

Her arms cross over her chest and she looks almost bitter and, certainly, incredibly put out. "I've even tried magic and - nothing." If her voice is getting a little shrill it's not entirely her fault.
