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

Oh look, there were tables and chairs over here too, away from all the informational stuff. Enjoy the food!

[WAIT FOR THE OCD PLEASE. OCD IS UP. This is the FIRST post for general mingling. Please use this post first, if your browser can handle the comment load. Roommates, fake siblings and teachers are here and there is more room for mingling here.]

Temari was beginning to wonder if any of these boys kept a shirt on.

She wasn't complaining, mind you. It was just interesting to see how lax they were about clothing themselves upon meeting new people.

She just smirked and shook her head at the... third one she'd seen.

"Howdy!" Jamie said in greeting. "Welcome to Fandom. Please feel free to take your shirt off if it makes you feel more comfortable."

Cute. Really.

"Did you really expect that one to work?" Temari asked.

"Nope!" Jamie said cheerfully. "But it never hurts to try. Worked one year. I'm Jamie. Welcome to Fandom High.

"Were they male or female?" She asked, looking him over speculatively. And then added as an after thought, "Temari."

"Well female," Jamie said conversationally. "I didn't have to ask any of the guys. However she mostly did it to shut me up. Nice to meet you, Temari. What brings you to Fandom?"

That must've been quite the thrill for him.

"School, apparently." She might have made a face upon saying 'school'. Okay, definitely made a face.

"Doesn't sound like your too thrilled with it," Jamie noted. "Don't worry. This place is actually pretty fun. How many schools do you know that teach you to blow stuff up?"

"The academy. I graduated from that years ago."

"Well you'll still won't find another school like this," Jamie said with a shrug. "Besides you get to treat yourself to handsome guys who regularly take off their shirts."

Temari gave him another slow look up and down. "...I can handle that."

Jamie grinned. "So tell me, Temari, where do you come from?"

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008)

"The Wind Country." She tapped her forehead protector. "Sunagakure."

A beat.

"Should I assume you've also never heard of it?"

"You'd be right," Jamie admitted. "Sorry. I assume that someone has told you about the whole different worlds coming here for an education thing?"

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008)

"Different worlds?" That was new. "I was only told there were people from very long distances away."

"Well that's one way of putting it," Jamie said. "For instance I'm originally from a place called Kansas and my world has a race of people called mutants who have several different abilities. Other people around here also have a place called Kansas but no mutants. This school seems to attract a lot of students from different places."

Jamie shrugged and then grinned. "It's part of what makes this place so much fun."

"Mutants?" Temari asked idly. "We have some like that where I'm from."

"Are they the kind that look like humans with cool powers?" Jamie asked. "Or are they the scary kind that you find in bad horror movies?"

She still remembered Gaara at his worst. And then him again protecting them all. "Both."

"We have a similar situation, to be honest," Jamie admitted. "So what do you think of Fandom so far? Besides the shirtlessness."

"I think my roommate is made of stone," Temari said dryly. "Literally."

Jamie blinked.

"His name wouldn't be 'Ben' would it?"

"Gladys." A beat. "I think it's female."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008)

"Gladys?" Jamie asked. "I think she used to work at the post office."

"She did mention that she'd been here before," Temari admitted.
