Fandom High Welcome Picnic, Front Lawn of the School, All Day: Part I

The weather was thankfully behaving, so it was fairly warm outside as everything was set up for the picnic. Tables and chairs had been set up, and there was plenty of food and drinks, along with nametags, and two signs: one listing the Big Sibling/Little Sibling pairings, and another listing rooms and roommates for the new students.

[WAIT FOR THE OCD PLEASE. OCD IS UP, HAVE AT IT. This is part one of the picnic, for specifically meeting siblings, roommates, and teachers. The rest of the picnic is happening here and here, in an effort to keep browsers from breaking for as long as possible. *g*]

After nearly a week of allowing himself somewhat of a vacation, Fraser was glad to be back and interested to see how the start of the new semester would go.

He was wandering around, observant as always.

"Shame, I was picturing you in leather today," Aly murmured with a wide grin at Benton.

"I am so terribly sorry to leave that wish unfulfilled," he said with only a faint blush. "I wore leather already. You just happened to miss it. Darn."

"I'm sure Robin has pictures," she teased. "I'll just ask nicely."

"I didn't allow pictures," he said and shrugged. "My one rule. Too bad."

"We'll have to fix that when you fulfill that bet with me then," Aly said.

He glared at her for a long moment before saying, "When would you like me to wear this leather anyway? Give me a day so I can prepare myself for having to...fit myself into the material."

Aly paused, tilting her head. "Prepare yourself?"

"Yes. Prepare myself in case they become permanently attached to my legs," he teased. "Or so I can have a convenient plan to stay out of sight the day you choose."

"I'd find you," Aly promised. "And then you'd have to do it another day too."

He made a face and shook his head. "I know. And I'm going to do it whenever you're ready to actually tell me what I should wear."

"I really think that should be a surprise."

More glaring. "Are you just going to attack me with leather one day?"

People in law enforcement usually had a sort of look about them. Considering how much time Triela spent around such people, she was pretty familiar with it.

"Excuse me," she smiled, "I'm looking for a Constable Fraser. Do you think you could direct me to him?"

Re: Meet Your Teachers (Spring 2008)

"Ah, there's no need to direct you to him," Fraser said, smiling politely. "He is me. I'm Constable Fraser. A pleasure to meet you."

"Oh, that's convenient," Triela grinned. "I'm Triela, and I'm new here." Her head tilted, "You probably already knew that last part."

"I'd guessed since I hadn't remembered seeing you over the past semester," he answered. "A pleasure to meet you Miss Triela. Welcome to Fandom. Are you a new teacher?"

"No," Triela sighed. "I'm a student. Which isn't too bad, I suppose."

"Ah, my apologies. It's hard to tell who's staff and who's not sometimes," he said. "And I can assure you that being a student here is not bad at all. Did you have any questions? Concerns? Anything I could help you with?"

"I hope so." Triela held up a piece of paper filled with notes that Hillshire had handed her as she boarded the plane. "Hillshire, my handler back home, said I needed to talk to someone about the rules regarding weapons here. Are you the person I need to talk to?"

"Yes," he said, nodding. "What sort of weapon do you carry?"

Re: Meet Your Teachers (Spring 2008)

"I've got a couple. A sub-machine gun," she shifted the oversized art case on her back to illustrate, "A pair of pistols, and a combat knife." Normally she'd hold back one of those, but Hillshire's instructions had been clear.

"All weapons of that sort are to be stored in the weapons locker," Fraser said, giving her the general direction of the locker. "We don't allow weapons on campus but the weapons locker is accessible to all students. The weapons are kept safe and secure."

Triela considered that for a moment then nodded, "That makes sense." And was quite sensible. "There are rules regarding when they can be taken out, I assume? For cleaning and practice?"

"Students have access to their weapons whenever they'd like," he confirmed. "If you actually wanted to use them, we ask that you keep it contained to the gun range for firearms and the salle for blades. Those are open for student access each day, during the day and evening hours."
