"Nice to meet you," Hermione replies. She appreciates being let off the hook, but she doesn't take back the apology, given the fact that it's merited. She was still being rude. Unwittingly, but never the less.

The question doesn't surprise her given she's just said the whole reason she had her delayed response was that she'd been thinking. "Mostly, trying to figure out if I'm missing something. I have no idea how I got here and no idea how to get home. I'm going over what little I've seen and heard and trying to figure out if there's some sort of clue but there's so little to work with.

"And I'm sure this stupid thing has plenty of information on it, but as I have no idea how to use it, it's completely useless," she complains, pushing her communication device away from herself a little, from where it was lying on the table beside her tray, ignored.
