DRIVING LICENSE... well, a learner's one at least.

Anyway... "Where'd ya disappear to after the match? I wanted to see you." And tell her how much of an awesome job she had done. He'd been up against Tobias before and he knew very well how much of a star player he was. It was annoying.

Theo made a face as she spoke words that he didn't understand, but he nodded along a bit just to give off the impression that he had some sort of idea. So it was science? Woot, he had gotten that part right! "Sounds... boring." He looked at his bag and wondered whether to study himself, though it didn't take him long to convince himself not to bother. His head was not in that zone. "Want a distraction?" Because he was sure he could think of something fun for them to do.

Like... food, or something.

Fun.
Sure?... no. Derry shook her head the tiniest amount but left it at that, it wasn't like she wanted to dump it all on Theo. The guy probably had his own issues, and really, did she expect people to be able to deal with hers when she could deal with them herself? "Mhmm, same." The game thing. "I guess... it's just a wee thing but... cherry on the cake or something." Eloquent, Derry. Well done. Fantastic. So descriptive. You're never going to be a writer. "That's good though... me too I guess. Hanging out with 'Scanius helped." Always did. He was good with stuff.

... Oh. That. "Um..." She shrugged slightly. "I... y'know... someone might have touched me." she said quietly, rubbing her thumb over the scratches on her hand that she'd got climbing that tree... "It's... kinda difficult to explain. And... my dad was there. I didnae um... I didnae really want to talk to him." Because she'd have cried, in front of everyone. By avoiding people she'd managed to hold all of the stuff in and not humiliated herself... it wasn't long until summer now anyway... she could deal with it all then.

Boring? Derry didn't really think so. "It's kind of fascinating actually. It's all about how mammal's brains and stuff work and... yeah." she trailed off, conscious of the fact that most people around here weren't too interested in muggle science. "Cannae concentrate anyway." Brain too full. Mind too occupied. "A distraction would be fantastic."
