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

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.]

"Summer! Hi!" Conner headed over to where she was sitting. "Stab anyone with a fork lately?"

You'd think he'd be over that obsession by now, but nooooooo . . .

"Not lately, no," Summer said, clearly amused. "How've you been? It's been, like, forever."

"I know, right?" Conner heaved a melodramatic sigh. "Time moves so slowly when you move as fast as I do."

Summer snickered. "I'm sure it does. So do I get a hug?"

"Well, yeah." Conner was happy enough to give her a hug that was more of a glomp. "Good to see you again, Summer."

Summer smiled. "Good to see you, too."

"You should come visit sometime this summer," Conner said. "I know, I know, us northern Californians are all inferior or something -- whatever -- but c'mon!"

"I'd like that," Summer said. "I can totally get Chris to orb me."

"Awesome," Conner said. "I've got the house pretty much to myself all summer, except when Gwynn comes to visit."

"Oh hey, maybe we can do a double date type thing," Summer said.

"Me and Gwynn and you and -- ?" Conner was still slow sometimes.

"Yeah," Summer replied. "Sorta happened last week at prom."
