He is so straight-laced in so many ways, but she's seen him fight and exist - it occurs to Hermione that every such declaration Lan Wangji makes out loud in this way is less a paternal order to his charges, and more a reminder to himself.
Maybe he finds himself needing reminders of how to be a good person.
She would easily tell him that he is one of the best ones she knows, regardless of his strictness.
(And of course, the fact that he said very easily that he would adopt her as his, if papers existed. That tugs on her heartstrings everytime and makes it hard to look at him without tearing up.)
The right path forks out again, and Hermione takes a corner to the left and holds her hand out.] Hold here. I'm going to find out where the company is.
Homenum revelio.
[The wand is waved, three motes of light appearing to whiz in the direction where other people are located. Nothing, no-one on the left path.]

Shall we try this one first?
