Fandom High Graduation Ceremony, Class of 2008, Saturday Afternoon (Part I)

[bigdamnprincipal]

The sun was shining over the front lawn of the school (except for the part of the bleachers covered by an awning, in case anyone with sun issues had shown up), and the temperature had thankfully turned out to be perfect for the occasion. There was a stage placed prominently on the lawn, set up with a podium and a number of heavy metal chairs for the administration and guests. In front of the stage were platforms with more of the metal chairs; they'd been painted blue and gold, and were sitting empty and waiting for the arrival of the class of 2008. There were bleachers on each side of the platforms, for students, family, friends, alumni, and residents of the town who wanted to come and watch.

Alas, it was time for another class to graduate.

[OOC: If you ping in before the OCD is over, I will end you and all that you love. Ahem. OCD is done, go and rock out! This post is for audience mingling and general graduation stuff. The requisite WTF-y part of graduation will be posted later. Like last year, it'll be kind of hard to miss the events of the second post, so you might want to hold off an any post-graduation posts for a while to avoid being Jossed.]

Dick accepted his diploma with a grin. He always knew he'd graduate high school on time. Quite a few people owed him money now.

Johnny stood and clapped for his fake big bro, smiling wide. "Way to go, dude!"

Veronica was a little surprised that Dick was actually graduating, since, you know, it was Dick.

But she stood up and yelled, "Go Dick!" when he crossed the stage.

Even Mac managed a cheer for him. If anyone asks her about it later, she'll deny it, though.

"Way to go Casablancas!" yelled Anders. Then, under his breath: "Whatever you do, don't grow up to marry Mars! Please?"

Ferris let out a whistle and clapped. It was a proud moment whenever someone like Dick managed to graduate.

"WAY TO GO DICK!" Willow shouted, with no sense of how dirty that might sound.
