If you have any inquiries regarding Boggarts, I can answer them. I was taught not only how to spot them but how to counteract them during my Third Year. All things considered...
[She pauses and weighs her words carefully before typing them out.]
They are less menacing than other creatures from my world. Like Dragons for example. Or Dementors.
[Private to Harry.]
How are you settling in? I can't thank you enough for bringing Crookshanks back to me. He has made my room his and he loves playing in the garden.
[Not many people coo over him, so she overdoes it at times.]
Have you seen the Boggart?

here's hoping you weren't too busy doing something unspeakably disgusting now that Potter's here to notice that they aren't just ordinary boggarts
they're not responding to the usual counter curses at all and seem to be dying off when killed like the thing they're pretending to be
but lets all defer to your genius maybe you know something we don't

private video; (...backdated at this point I think)
But then he thinks better of it. Wiser to try and get out the coherent chronology before bringing his new, uh, friend in/] but-- that's daft isn't it? I was patrolling when I found it attacking River, and it turned into a dementor because of me. When I sent my patronus after it, it-- well, it worked. But when I tried to move it toward the lockers for containment, I blew it up instead. It's like nothing I've ever heard about, Hermione.
[You can't kill a boggart. They both know this. You can't very well blow up a boggart.]
But River's been trying to explain it to me. Hang on-- let me get her over here. River? [He's turning again, twisting the camera so the dark-haired girl can see.] Miss River, this is my friend. Hermione. Maybe she'll understand what you mean.

They aren't right. If you look closer there's the stitching, it's a different pattern.[ which is about as helpful as she's been up until now, do you see harry's issue here hermione?
she is at least partly aware of how unsuccessfully her explanation is going, though, and huffs slightly before stepping a little closer and folding her arms over her chest. ]
It's a new species. It needs a new name. Boggart isn't accurate any more.

[What.]
Then they are simpler to kill. I was seeking to help those who do not know as much as you, Malfoy.

But it's okay as long as you are armed or near someone else. Don't lose your head if you can help it.

But if they really turn into someone's worst fear and have a physical, mortal form...
She shakes her head.]
It must be a hybrid. Something taken from our world and warped - or added to - in space. [Now for the important question.] When they are killed, do they stay dead or are you encountering the same one after it has regenerated?
[Then, in a softer voice, she adds:] I'm sorry you were attacked, River. You'll be safe with Harry, though. He's better at Defense Magic than almost anyone onboard.
