Welcome back! Verity was bitten by a werewolf, so she and Lavender are in the same boat, yeah? And Verity and Parvati are friends, so I imagine that Verity would probably want to meet up and bond with Lav. Though, Verity is rather reserved and quiet when compared to Lavender. ^^ Maybe Lav can help bring her out of her shell a little?
I've also got Miles Bletchley, Kherrington Bundy, Draco Malfoy, Stephen Cornfoot (maybe he and Lav can remember each other from school?) and Audrey Baxter. ^_^
