Well, then. They were going on a Scotland tour! Cosgrach grinned. Then he would see this man's worth. "Let's arrange a date sometime," It was going to be the date of the year, after all. He hoped Sabel wasn't as terrible as he'd first feared. Not that a Culloden would fully trust an Auror, but it would be a nice change to suspect less.

Hold the stone, move your wrist, blah blah. To be honest, Cosgrach couldn't care less. He, as a child, had never wanted to skip a stone, so why should HIS daughter? Still, he was going to humour Sabel, his dearest colleague. No one could know how a baby would turn out.

He found a stone too, whatever, and held it how he thought Sabel did. He wasn't paying much attention, however. Then, he pretended to be mimicking his posture and just threw it in the water.

"It didn't skip." Just so Sabel knew. His teaching ways were wrong.

Just like there was no reason not to learn how to skip stones. Or conjure flowers. Or cast a patronus. No reason to hold suspicion of ulterior motives. After all, he had suggested it, not Culloden. No need to let the Auror's head get in the way. Tossing his stone up briefly, Sabel caught it and shot the Professor a grin. "Perhaps we should. But I never stood much on ceremony." Straightening, Sabel turned so that he could show Culloden his hold on the rock. "So, skipping a rock. It's all in the way you hold it, and the movement of your wrist. Not so much the strength of the throw." He showed the Professor how he held the rock, thumb and forefinger craddling it gently in the curve of his hand. "The lightest flick of the wrist, you can get a much more successful skip than trying to power through it." Well, then. They were going on a Scotland tour! Cosgrach grinned.
