@Great Lake | MENTIONING

Woah... Cirrus gasped to himself. The sun was begining to hang low in the Scottish skies, and it was especially cold due to the chilling autumn breeze. The Great lake seemed to acuentuate the already freezing air. Also for some reason Cirrus decided it was a good idea to wear no coat, and that he would be okay with his thin white shirt and a black scarf. Fair enough, many make these sort of mistakes, but when Cirrus went outside and was met with the extreme cold of Fall did he go back inside? Of course not, apparently he was okay with getting hypothermia. Cirrus came outside and positioned himself on his stomach near the lake, the grass was cold and slightly damp from rainfall the previous day. Cirrus winced at it for a moment before acclimating to it, like you would by swimming around a cold pool or an ice bath. Cirrus's hair was an absolute mess, he hadn't bothered to try and tame his waves and it showed immensely. He quickly wrapped his scarf around his head like you would see an Russian grandma do. For some reason in his mind it would make him blend into the surroundings, but why was Cirrus here in the first place? He grabbed the binoculars around his neck pulling them up to his eyes, adjusting the distant and clarity as he did. Cirrus had always had a fascination with bugs, like most boys his age. Cirrus had been pampered on Christmas from his family with different types of bug observing kits and books so he could learn as much as he could. Today he was hoping to see some dragonflies as they frequently live nearby ponds. He had been sitting there for around 15 minutes when...
Woah... Cirrus gasped to himself. We are brought back to the present moment. It was a dragonfly, but not just any dragonfly it was a Northern Damselfly. A rare and even endangered type of dragonfly characterized by a spear-head shaped pattern on their abdomen, and colorized with blue and black. It was astonishing, and there was only one. Cirrus was so enthralled with the bug world he wasn't paying attention to anyone or anything else. That was of course until he hear the soft crunching of grass nearby.

Speech -- Thoughts

Pam was feeling pretty out of it. Today's Herbology class had not been pretty. She wished there had been some astronomy classes too but no such luck.

It was nearly 5:30 in the afternoon and it had just started getting colder. A gentle, but rather freezing breeze was blowing, causing Pam to shiver, hugging herself. She ran her hands through her hair, uncontrolled as always, although even more in the wind. No, behave. And do not get into my mouth—

Pam had a healthy volume of hair on her head. Much to her delight, her father had agreed to let her lengthen it, on the condition that she took care of it. Pam had been more than happy to do so, making it a point to keep it as spik and span as possible. Now though, the only problem was the frizz. It was truly annoying.

She normally tied her hair depending on where she was going and the occasion. However she hadn't expected it to be so breezy already. After all, the breeze normally started deeper into the evening.

She did not let it bother her much, as she walked down the path along the Great Lake. It was interrupted though as her eyes fell on a boy squatting a little distance away from her, near the trees. The person in himself was not very interesting, compared to the fact that he was not wearing anything warm and seemed to be shivering. And are those binoculars in his hands?

Pam stopped for a minute, trying to decide if she should approach him or mind her own business. However, the decision was taken out of her hands as the boy looked back, and met her gaze.

The wings fluttered so it looked like an illusion of propellers of some sort, in a rhythm that Cirrus knew he may never fully comprehend, the wings seemed as if they were made of a beautiful crystallized substance, the light of the sun bouncing off the broken fragments of diamonds. The boy looked behind him with his eyebrows furrowed squinting profusely to focus his eyes on the figure in front of him when he met sapphire eyes that complimented a honey-colored face. She had curly platinum blonde hair pulled back into a ponytail, further showing off her exotic facial features. He had been so immersed in his bug watching he forgot how to speak for a moment, his mouth hanging agape as his brain started to turn its gears. The boy quickly got off his stomach, dirt and mud caked onto the front of his white sweater which he manipulated into covering his hands to provide extra warmth. Cirrus quickly dusted off his pants as he stood up with an awkward but polite smile, his dimples peeking out slightly as to say hello.
"Um... Hello." That is all he could manage to get out as his brain and social energy were put in overtime. "Did ye want tae join? Ye wad no believe whit is here!"1

Speech -- Thoughts

Pretty, He's pretty. As the boy turned around, Pam was met with a pair of gorgeous honey colored eyes, which seemed to be pretty illumined in the sun. It seemed like the boy had not been expecting company, because Pam was pretty sure she watched him stop functioning for a second. The. He stood up, dusting himself a bit, and flashed her an awkward smile.

He had a heavy accent. Pam wasn't really sure where exactly the accent was from, but she sure felt lucky to be able to understand his words. I owe it to all the books I've read. She hoped she did not interpret his words wrong though, because that would be pretty embarrassing. Especially if he said he wanted me to go away, she thought, walking over to him. She tilted her head to see what exactly he had been so busy watching and...huh? Is that a butterfly?

"Hello." She greeted softly, "I didn't really mean to spy on you." She glanced at the butterfly again, trying to be careful so as to not scare it away. Her father had always told her to avoid sudden movements if she came into contact with a butterfly.

She had never thought she would.

She glanced back at the boy, taking in the white shirt he was wearing and the scarf, and found herself scrunching up her nose, "Are you not cold?"

Cirrus looked down at his shirt, it was a thin off-white sweater that had done nothing to protect him from the fleeting cold. Even worse now was that it was damp and the mud had condensed in think layers on the front, chilling him to the bone. The only thing protecting him from the attack of autumn's weather was the sun's warm rays and his charcoal crinkle scarf that had now started fraying from overuse. Cirrus attempted to rid himself of the mud, but to no avail as it smeared only further sealing the piece of cloth's fate. He stood looking at it in distaste, before looking back at the girl the sun making her hair look more of a glowing pure white rather than a platinum blonde. She walked over to stand next to him, and he awkwardly stepped aside, the girl then began to observe the dragonfly which quickly zipped back and forth, before settling on a single blade of grass. The thin long insect's greenish-blue stripes were exemplified in the sun's golden hour, its graceful wings reflecting like stained glass, shimmering the rainbow rays of light. Thank goodness, it hadn't noticed the presence of the two children. Cirrus sighed in relief inaudibly, as he slowly got back down on the grass. Sitting on top of his feet now instead, his knees pressing into the slick wet mud, giving him better balance and control as he lifted the binoculars back to his honey-colored eyes.
"Dinnae worry, A didnae think ye were spyin... Wait were ye?" 1 Cirrus's train of thought seemingly poured out of his mouth in a whisper before he paused, removing his binoculars to look at her again with his eyebrow cocked in questioning.
He huffed slightly as the dragonfly spread out its wings and zipped away, as the days got colder Cirrus knew that he would see these magnificent creatures less and less. It was only natural, he was already lucky enough to see a dragonfly during Autumn even more so the fact that it was the endangered Northern Damselfly. He had wished silently that he was allowed to bring a phone to the school or at the very least a camera to catch the insect in all its glory. Cirrus lowered his binoculars once more this time in a small disappointment, wiping his nose with his dirty sleeve, his nose had started dripping ever so slightly due to the cold. Whether the Hufflepuff boy cared whether or not he had just smeared mud across his face was unclear. He exhaled, letting a puff of white smoke swirl through the air, his warm breath meeting the freezing air around them as the sun began to dip behind the trees. The bright waves of light warbled through the branches, if the sun could make a noise at this moment Cirrus was sure that it would let out a large relieved yawn. Its hard day of shining was over, it was now time for it to rest as it went to its home beyond the horizon. The coffee-haired boy's attention was rediverted as the girl addressed him once again, was he cold?
"Ay, A am really cauld actually,"2 This much was obvious as Cirru's face had light dusting of pale pink across his nose, cheek, and ears. He once more wiped his noise, trying to stop it from running. Cirrus got up to his feet, holding out his hand sheepishly to help the girl up, talking as he did so with a sweet smile. Even though he had a Scottish accent his voice was rather soft rather than harsh.
"Well, thare's na point i stayin oot here much longer, unless we're tryin tae get frostbite." 3

Speech -- Thoughts

Pam shook her head, grinning in amusement. "I really wasn't spying." she assured him, although she couldn't help but think, If I was actually spying you wouldn't have noticed me at all... she trailed off as she glanced at the boy and realised with a start that her "thoughts" had been literally spoken out loud. "Er...please forget you heard that."

Her attention shifted to what the boy had been watching as the butterfly seemed to have decided to foresake their company and flew away from them. Pam asked him curiously, "Do you like to watch butterflies?" She herself was not a fan of insects, or any kind of invertebrates to be specific. Her tolerance extended to butterflies and moths at a distance and preferably not in motion. Any other insects- big or small- involved her screaming and running far away.

Pam smiled away her slight embarrassment at her rather silly question. It was pretty obvious that the boy was cold, if his pink flushed cheeks were anything to go by. Pam felt it was pretty brave of him, being out in such a cold and not wearing any actually helpful piece of clothing. If Pam had been in his place, she would have been guaranteed a trip to the hospital wing and some doses on ugly-tasting medicines. The thought made her wonder if she should ask the guy if he wanted to head inside, but before she could put words to the question, the other had already stood up and offered her a hand. Pam let him pull her up, later on realising that her hand was probably terribly cold. It always was during the season. Well, it would bother her later on, "Then should we head inside?"

Cirrus couldn't help but let a contagious grin sneak across his face at her statement, he wouldn't have noticed her?

"Oh really? are ye challengin me?"1 The boy said with almost a mischievous glint in his honey eyes as he leaned over slightly to where she was sitting, slightly towering her. Cirrus just nodded puckering his lips slightly as he returned to his original posture at her motion to forgot what she said altogether.

"dinnae mention it but... Juist know A'll be payin extra attention now~"2 The hufflepuff mumbled in a sing-songy voice, smiling ear to ear.

Motioning for her to come closer, Cirrus held the binoculars so that they both could look out a single lense to truly get a good look at the insect. Before it flew away, he let out a huff.

Cirrus cocked his eyebrow in questioning almost immediately as the word butterfly dropped from her mouth, butterfly? BUTTERFLY? Cirrus just smiled, his dimples poking from his cheeks as he shook his head in amusement. He wasn't gonna be angry, what was the use in that? Instead opting to properly inform her on the subject as important as this, his face taking a softer look as he looked at her.

"thon wasnae a butterfly, thon wis a dragonfly, an no juist any dragonfly, thon wis a rare northern damselfly, also known bi coenagrion hastulatum, they're native tae scotland,"3 He said gently, as he let his gaze draw to the vast waters of the lake. "bi the way A'm cirrus~"4

Cirrus nodded at her comment to head inside, sniffling harshly, the boy followed suit as the duo went inside to warm up.

Speech -- Thoughts

Pam's attempt to blush her embarrassment away did not seem to work very well. "I'm not, I swear", she said in response to the boy's words, grinning sheepishly. For some reason, she was feeling oddly shy around this, well, rather gorgeous boy. It wasn't surprising really, Pam was generally uncomfortable around good-looking people. The boy wasn't about to figure that out though.

Pam was again reminded of her lack of knowledge about anything related to arthropodes, and she tended to stay away from tiny things that could fly. The boy- what is his name?- did not seem surprised, although a hint of disappointment appeared and disappeared from his eyes at lightning speed. Pam guessed he had met others who also knew nothing about the topic.

"Right, sorry, a dragonfly," she amended, "I don't know a lot about... any kind of insects really." Atleast those weren't spiders. Pam had a major fear for spiders, which had honestly grown with every passing year. Luckily, she hadn't bumped into any of those... creatures.

Pam smiled as the boy introduced himself, and smiled, "Cirrus? Nice to meet you! I'm Pam." As the two stepper inside, Pam said, "You should definitely put on warmer clothes. It wouldn't do to catch a cold. What house are you in? I'm a Hufflepuff."

Cirrus just shrugged off at the blonde haired girl's admittance of not having much knowledge on the culture of bugs and insects, giving her a gentle smile letting her know it wasn't a big deal to the boy, almost as reassurance. He never wanted to come off as intimidating or unapproachable to others, being awkward was enough for the Hufflepuff as it was so being scary on top of it would be the worse combo.

Pam... So that's what her name was... The boy paused for a second tapping his chin thoughtfully, before a smile broke across his features.

"Daes thon mean A can call ye pamegranate?" Cirrus had a goofy smile on his face as if pleased with himself and his smart nickname, a play on Pam and the fruit pomegranate. "also lovely tae meet ye dear."

The boy let his honey eyes flicker once again to the background behind them, the sun behind them painted the sky a beautiful amber color, the sun's rays could be clearly seen shining through the clouds, yet the cold and frail wind blew reminding the two constantly of the growing freezing temperatures as the sun set.

As the two stepped inside, Cirrus turned his head blinking as if there was no thoughts in that noggin of his, he smiled once again, his eyes scrunching into half moons as he did so. He let out a small chuckle, which sounded like a sneeze if nothing else, light, airy, and the only real indicator was the slight shake of his shoulders.

"dinnae worry A'll remember neist time tae dae such.... An really? sae am A! hopefully this means we'll run intae ilka other more often pamegranate!" He grinned before ruffling her hair.
