She was just testing the water as it were.
Besides... it couldn't hurt to try. She wandered down to the lake - really? They had to do this THERE? ....meh - and scanned for Vesper, having already shrugged off her jacket and slung it over her shoulder. She was Scottish. She could do cold.
She glanced at the lake and shuddered a bit... ugh. Her feelings about the thing fluctuated along with her moods, and right now she wasn't too keen to get close. Luckily, Ves wasn't too near to the edge. Derry walked over to her, quickly slipping off her shoes (wet grass was lovely).
"Hey." she said, offering a smile.
"Teach me your waaays."
...
Yep.
Vesper was already down on the ground, legs kicked out to the sides to stretch her hamstrings out. Yoga could be dangerous if one didn't properly work out those muscles...and she enjoyed walking. So, no...No tearing or fracturing anything. Not allowed!
...and then Derry was walking over! She was excited about this! They hadn't got much of a chance to talk after that epic circus party Derry had thrown this summer...and Ves thought that was a shame really. Switching to pushing her upper body weight over her right leg, she grinned.
"I love your mat!"
BEAM. Pretty colors, man.
SPOILER!!: Ascanius!

Oh yeah. Now that they didn't have Quidditch an entire grounds of students were left to their own devices. Teenagers. With hormones. And boredom.
That was the professors problems, though, not his, yeah?
Grabbing his jacket and a blanket, Ascanius went down to the lake for recreational watching.
He set up his blanket and smirked at Derry first, "Snaps," and then Vesper, "Afternoon, Ves."
No tension between them, see?
...of course, her pleasant disposition faltered when Ascanius popped up.
He'd really hurt her feelings the night before...with his snapping and agitation. Ascanius had never spoken to her that way...
Ves was going to be the bigger person, though. She was here to relax and release frustations...If he wanted to be a jerk, well....It was hardly her place to care.
Cranky toerag.
SPOILER!!: Addi!

She looked around and saw a group of people gathering. There was that Vesper girl from quidditch, Oh! and Derry and Ascanius. She hadn't said hi to Ascanius since she got back. Plus she was curious as to what they were doing.
Addi threw the last pebble and wandered over to the little group. "Hey Derry. Ascanius." She gave Vesper a little nod. She hadn't really talked to the girl much. Just quidditch. Which was gone. Which was awful.
Oh, another ginger. A Slytherin one.
Vesper remembered Addi from the quidditch pitch. She'd hit her with a bludger once. Good times. Not. She wasn't bitter, though. It was name of the game, right? Some pain was involved and a given.
"Hey, Addi!" Could she call her that? Or was that just a 'friends' thing?
"Do you need me to duplicate my mat for you? So you have something comfortable to do the positions on?"
I could affect posture, she'd heard somewhere, not to use one...
SPOILER!!: Benjy!

And goodness knew he had a LOT of time to spend, with the gaping empty hole left by the cancellation of quidditch.
He skateboard casually down to the action...or at least, as casually as he could after seeing Vesper's BARE legs. Merlin, wasn't she cold? STARE.
...he was just gonna plop down on his skateboard over here and watch, yup. Don't mind us.
BLUSH.
And when had Benjy popped up?!
Yea, I see you. I SEE you sitting there, Mr. Barton.
Because of the amazing snogging, she tossed out a wink. She could do that, right?
SPOILER!!: Nigel!

So watching sounds much more fun this time. Plus he had more free time then he thought with Quidditch cancelled this term.
He settled down next to Ascanius, who he assumed was here for the same reason.
"Afternoon, Everyone"
She hadn't seen Nigel, yet...but when she stood, bending over to fix the straps on her shoes, the Ravenclaw caught a glimpse.
Well, then.
"You boys sure you don't want to do yoga? Or are you just going to watch?"
Boys. Slytherin and Ravenclaw boys. Why weren't the other houses represented here? This seemed like a statement in itself.
Not waiting for answers, she bent over again, bum facing AWAY from the group of boys, and did some more stretching.
Oh...and...
"Hello, Józsua." Grin!
