Which also meant, spending as much time as possible with her family. With the girls safe and sound at home having a 'Daddy and Daughters' day, Vannah was able to take her little man along, just the two of them. It wasn't often lately that she had the opportunity to have time alone with him, something she and Curt tried doing for each of the kids as much as they could, so today would be nice.
Double checking that his jacket was zipped and fitting snuggly, Vannah shifted the toddler on her hip as she walked down the familiar cobblestone path of Hogsmeade village. It had been a long, long time since she had last been here.. during seventh year, to be exact. They hadn't made it back out for any visits since then. It felt good to be walking these streets again, ocean blue eyes gazing around, taking in the old and cleaned up shops alike, glancing in windows.. wait.
Tall, red hair- Mia. A warm smile playing on her lips, Savannah stole a sideways look at her son, Curt's mini-me in almost every way, before opening the door to join the two women standing in the doorway of Dervish and Banges. Who knew, maybe she'd get Lex a sneakoscopes while she was here or something.
"Mia!" Vannah greeted brightly from behind them, taking a moment to remember the blonde's name. She did know her from her school days, just not very well. "And Rhiannon, right? So funny to run into you both here," Quote:

It's just that everything in Dervish and Banges brought back this flood of memories from her final year at Hogwarts Belle's. And it was all she could to do to keep her emotions in check. So many 'what ifs' about that day.
So many ....
.... but her thoughts didn't finish as she felt someone run into her back. To which she spun around and was about to apologize for standing in the doorway, when her gaze fell upon the familiar features of one best friend. Best friend who she sadly hadn't seen in ages, it seemed.
Smiling warmly at the blond, she nodded, "Rhian!" But didn't get to add anything else before ....
A brunette entered the shop, also greeting her. It was like a Hogwarts Reunion! "Vans?!?" Her gaze flickered from Savannah, with the toddler in her arms, to Rhiannon and back again. "What are you both doing here?" She beamed, closing the gap between each, one at a time and giving them a hug. It felt so ... surreal, them, all being here, in Scotland, again. This was just odd. It was almost like she honestly should have chosen to come to Hogsmeade today, and was meant to decide to start her search here in Dervish and Banges. It was enough to make Rhiannon blink slightly as she took in everything that had just happened in a space of seconds, even as she had to consider if she actually believed in fate. She'd gone from just thinking about her cousin and Dylan and getting a gift for the little girl, to running into he rbest friend from ages ago and she honestly couldn't explain why it had taken her so long to see Mia again. It couldn't just be explained by what had happened to her years ago now, because she could have actually tried to go to one of the redhead's Quidditch games or something. She just, well, hadn't, and then hadn't even tried to look her up after she'd moved her art studio out of her home in Wales and to an actual real studio space in London, which made her feel bad. She could've been a better best friend, although she blinked again at the old nickname.
It had been so long since she'd heard that, that she'd almost forgotten about it, but she'd managed a smile and opened her mouth to speak when she'd heard another voice sound from right behind her. Turning slightly to let the new arrival step further inside as well even as she wondered if the shopkeeper was going to eventually reprimand them for blocking the entrance, she closed her mouth again as names kept getting mentioned, both from the brunette and then Mia as well. She'd nodded in response to the question about her own name however. "Yes," she finally said, giving the brunette a smile too. "Savannah, right? You were a Hufflepuff like Mia." Mia had said Vans, at least, so she was fairly sure she was remembering things correctly, and she'd turned her blue-green eyes back to the redhead at her question. "I just felt like getting away from Wales for a bit. Maybe getting something for my neice," she explained. "Well, Elizabeth's daughter. My cousin? She misses her daddy sometimes lately, when he's away with his team, so I thought maybe a present would help." And she figured another drawing or painting wouldn't do the trick. besides, if she hadn't come then she wouldn't have experienced this reunion.
