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*]

Aravis noticed the man staring at her, and waved a little, staring back.
doubleohblonde: (Bond is dubious)

Forcing a smile and a small wave back, Bond very deliberately turned away, watching through the corner of his eye.

She'd been good and dead, he knew that, but then again, it's not like he'd been able to stick around for a funeral.

Well, that wouldn't do.

"Why are you staring at me?" Aravis asked, striding over.
doubleohblonde: (Bond is casual and kinda surly)

Even if his eyes were playing tricks on him, he wasn't going to forget that voice in a hurry.

Without thinking, Bond's hand shot out towards her wrist.

Aravis, as a consequence, immediately swung out with her other hand towards his face. "Let me go!"
doubleohblonde: (Bond is feeling stabby)

Twisting out of the path of the blow, Bond reached for that wrist too.

"Not until you tell me what you're doing here," he hissed.

"Going to school?" she replied slowly. "Being attacked by random men? I'll scream, don't think I won't."
doubleohblonde: (Bond is watching...something)

Re: Meet Your Teachers (Spring 2008)

If this was another of M's little surprises. "We both know that if I really wanted to attack you, Vesper, you wouldn't have time to get a scream off."

"What's a Vesper?" she asked, wondering how stupid and/or crazy this man might be.
doubleohblonde: (Bond is taken aback by your razor wit)

Blame the jet-lag, and nothing else, really, for it taking so long, but Bond started to notice the differences, her hair was wavier, she was shorter, and her freckles...no, the freckles were the same.

Bond instantly let go of the girl's, and he could see now that she really was a girl, wrists. "Terribly sorry," he said, features dropping into a mask of smooth charm. "I'm afraid I mistook you for someone else."

"No, really?" she asked, thoroughly irritated and taking a generous step away from him. "I'll thank you not to grab me or anyone else like that again, sir."
doubleohblonde: (Bond is intrigued by this)

Re: Meet Your Teachers (Spring 2008)

[personal profile] doubleohblonde 2008-01-04 04:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, and the hint of an accent too, even if the tone was exactly the same.

"I'll ensure it won't happen again," he said smoothly, as if he'd only trod on her toe. "Miss...?"

"Lady. Aravis. Lady Aravis," she said coolly. It was so nice to have a title to throw at annoying people.
doubleohblonde: (Bond is totally not imagining you naked)

Re: Meet Your Teachers (Spring 2008)

[personal profile] doubleohblonde 2008-01-04 05:09 pm (UTC)(link)
That was alright, Bond had a title of his own to throw around, even if it wasn't quite a peerage. "Commander James Bond, formerly of Her Majesty's Navy," he responded just as coolly, not breaking eye contact.

"How nice for you," she said with a tight smile. "I'm sure that whichever queen you work for would be pleased to know that you've taken to grabbing random ladies in public. Certainly a quality bred in all branches of your military, I'm sure."
doubleohblonde: (Bond's ego doesn't fit in lifts)

Re: Meet Your Teachers (Spring 2008)

[personal profile] doubleohblonde 2008-01-04 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
"You'd be surprised," Bond said blandly. "And I hardly imagine you're a random lady at all."

Re: Meet Your Teachers (Spring 2008)

[identity profile] notqueenyet.livejournal.com 2008-01-04 05:19 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hardly. But I don't know you and I don't take kindly to your attitude," she replied smoothly.
doubleohblonde: (Bond is totally not imagining you naked)

Re: Meet Your Teachers (Spring 2008)

[personal profile] doubleohblonde 2008-01-04 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
And this was really doing nothing but enforce the resemblance.

"I find most ladies come to find my attitude most enjoyable once they know me."

Re: Meet Your Teachers (Spring 2008)

[identity profile] notqueenyet.livejournal.com 2008-01-04 05:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"Then I doubt you find yourself in the company of many ladies, sir," she replied.

"A true gentleman never kisses and tells, so I'm afraid you'll have to live without knowing."

Of course, it's not like he ever claimed that particular title.

Re: Meet Your Teachers (Spring 2008)

[identity profile] notqueenyet.livejournal.com 2008-01-04 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Aravis wrinkled her nose. "A true gentleman doesn't allude to such things," she sniffed.

As though she was one to talk.
doubleohblonde: (Bond is smugly relaxed)

Re: Meet Your Teachers (Spring 2008)

[personal profile] doubleohblonde 2008-01-04 05:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Bond was all too innocent as he asked. "What makes you think I was alluding to anything?"

Re: Meet Your Teachers (Spring 2008)

[identity profile] notqueenyet.livejournal.com 2008-01-04 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
"You were not really very subtle," she pointed out.
doubleohblonde: (Bond would like Aravis to pls shut up)

Re: Meet Your Teachers (Spring 2008)

[personal profile] doubleohblonde 2008-01-04 05:48 pm (UTC)(link)
"Purely a figure of speech, I assure you." Some part of Bond was well-aware he was falling far too easily back into habits of banter and flirtation, but it was currently a very small one.

"Yes, well, I'll thank you to remember your manners and a sense of propriety," she said. Possibly a bit hypocritically, but she was cranky, and she didn't need Seely hearing about this and doing something stupid.
