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.]

"Do not apologize," she said firmly, still misunderstanding his panic. "I came over here 'cause you looked nervous and I thought I could help and instead I freaked you out worse. Uh. Listen. There's nothing to be freaked out about. I promise. I'm a Guardian, back home. I protect people. We get a lot of people like that, here. Nothing bad's gonna happen."

"Okay," he said, nodding a few times. "All right. Don't worry, don't ask why weird things happen, don't let a gremlin bite me."

"Oooh, yeah, that's a good one," she nodded. "But gremlin bites are more ... I mean. If it happens, it's embarrassing and everyone teases you and then they all forget about it until it's someone else's turn. Not dangerous."

"Not dangerous," he repeated. "No one's died from a gremlin bite?"

Because that would just be the freaking worst.

"Oh, heck no." Rikku waved off his concern. "It just makes you do crazy, stupid, embarrassing stuff for a couple of hours. Like when Gavin and Luke were telling everybody they were magicians, and they had a horrible accent and they kept referring to Artoo as und tiiiii-gah."

Just to make sure this was a reassuring story and not a panicky one, she added, "Artoo isn't a tiger."

"Like drugs?" Ned asked because he still thought maybe gremlin was a street name for something hard.

"I guess?" she said, scratching her head. "Maybe people could use it like that? Usually it's more like you're cleaning your room and boom, Gremlin bite, and then you go insane for a few hours and everyone else tries to get it on tape. Not sure anybody would pay for that."

"Does this place sell gremlin repellent?" Ned asked hopefully. "I'd like to buy some of that."
the_merriest: (aha)

"No, but if you ever find some, you could make a fortune," she said cheerfully.
