Three! He said three!!

"Expul--"

Hm...?

Lex whipped around and spotted the Grounds Keeper making his way over to them. Blink. Blink. Okay, it's either it wasn't all that early anymore and they'd been blasting for hours or everyone woke up early on a Saturday. SERIOUSLY. And he ruined the explosion, she'd totally lost concentration. If he wanted to join, all he had to do was ask quietly.

Reluctantly she lowered her wand, still wishing she could have seen it go BOOM and offered him a GRIN.

"G'Morning Sir! Pleasure seeing you out this early! Do you normally take walks at this hour?" Probably. The man looked positively winded. Getting it the work out. You go Not Shiny Grounds Keeper!

"We were just practising a few spells that were learned to keep ourselves sharp. I've taught myself one, Mr. Vinteren taught me another and Nigel here knew one that he showed me. Would you like to see? We still have plenty of fireworks we could blow up--colouring too to make it extra pretty...oh but you'd have to step back, safety first." BEAMMM.

"You are here to join, right Sir? Because after this we're all going for ice-creeeeeeam."
