If Molly Weasley ever started giving Ron college level lectures about the scientific parts of the brain, Hermione was turning in her books and giving up. She respected the woman like crazy, but academics weren't the reason for that. Besides, for all the things Molly lectured Ron about, she still hadn't forced him to go to college or anything of that nature. Comparing her to his mom was just... weird and uncomfortable for everyone.
"I heard. Your mom threw a fit all over the network about it. Did she finally relent and let you take it? For your sake I hope she did." Ron with an actual job was, well Hermione didn't want to say it was really important to her, because that implied things she wasn't ready to admit... but yes, of course it was important to her. "So what do you want to do, Ron? What sort of fun are you talking about?"
