She couldn't understand why the winter was being so stubborn. It was almost it's time to leave. Didn't it know? They were trying to blow things up and the cold was not appreciated. Just saying. Good thing she'd opted to dress warm.
SPOILER!!: Nigel

"We can sure try." They were on a roll now and why stop.
"Definitely. I am wide awake now.Okay let see how high we can make the stack this time"
Nigel was pretty sure the stack could not get much higher. But they had to blow up something to top what they just did. To bad he used the last fo his fireworks on the last explosion. Shame. He now had nothing to add.
Think, Nigel, Think. What could they use this time.
Add suddenly he got the answer from Mika. Perfect timing.
"Hey Mika. Ready to blow things up?" The more the merrier. Especially when all three could blow thing up at the same time.
"Homemade fireworks. Awesome. We so have to use those. Put those on the stack over there." Nigel pointed to the high stack they were just building.
"Now we have to cast the spell at the same time. With the three of us. It will be awesome"
Homemade fireworks and more people would make this more awesome. So awesome that Nigel barely even felt the cold that was covering the Lake. Please, it was colder at his house over the winter.
She wasn't the only one who would find it hard to fall asleep now. Anyone standing out here with them would have the same complaint. Not that it was a complaint. This was some of the most fun she'd had all term! There wasn't a single class that allowed them to do this freely.
"Not sure we should make it much bigger. We're already sending signals people can see all the way back in England. Any bigger and we'll have the Headmistress out here--Hey maybe we could ask her to join. She'd know some really cool spells, wouldn't she??" And now she was almost hoping it would happen but would the woman really come out this early in all this cold?
"Do you have anymore of the colours?" She asked curiously.
"We could add them with Mika's Fireworks, for extra colours and all." Just a suggestion.
Ooo and they were casting now!
SPOILER!!: Mika

Today was one day that she wished she was part selkie or something – you know, not the actual selkie but the mythological ones. The part-seal-people. That would be awesome, because the cold weather they were having wouldn’t affect her at all.
Awesome.
Shivvvvvvver. ”I-i-itttt-titits cold” she stammered out. And then Nigel was speaking. Shivvvvvvver she tried to listen above the rattling of her own teeth.
Nigel looked extremely excited to see her. Awesome, or weird but it was probably because of her boomtastic fireworks. ”Awesome – I have more too, kind of made a few too many batches of fireworks potion – and I’ve got some Weasley’s fireworks – just the simple stuff though” she didn’t know what colors her fireworks would go – or if they would be extra special or especially boring.
For all she knew they were a little more exciting than a sparkler but nothing compared to a wildfire Whiz-bangs. She knew, for one thing that in her bag, was a nice little Bombastic bomb and that bang bang boggart thing?
”Ooh wait , I’ve got a good Weasley’s thing…went over break, got the bombastic bomb and the Bang Bang Boggart Banger” she beamed. Seriously, she was a closet pyromaniac. And no, that did not mean she set fires in closest, despite the scorch marks that were obviously noticeable in the Ravenclaw broom closet.
That had not been her doing. Nope, and she'd deny it if asked.
Cooold, it was so cold suddenly. Wrapping her arms around her she began to rub her hands up and down her jacket sleeves. "Accio mittens" she summoned not one, or two, but three pairs of mittens. "here, cause it feels like were sitting in an ice box" she shivered and moved to hand Lex and Nigel a pair of stark black mittens each.
"Nothing much." She answered with a shrug.
"Just some old things we found around the castle and the grounds. Like I found an old wheel behind the barn, there was a desk that was missing a leg in an old classroom. A whole bunch of random stuff."
She listened, grinning wider and wider at all the things the Ravenclaw had with her. Just how much more awesome could this get???
"I wanna say we should add them all but we need to make them last. The morning's still young."
Still young and cold. Lex watched curiously as she summoned some mittens. Good thinking, though the explosions did bring their own momentary warmth these would do wonders.
Thanks, now have your wand at ready." She slipped the mittens on then aimed her own wand.
"We're all using Expluso, you know that spell, right? Good. On the count of three then?"
And she looked to Nigel, seeing if he was ready.
