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

[bigdamnprincipal]

Despite the fact that they were still in Antarctica, the weather for the picnic was beautiful. It was sunny, warm, and clear enough to see many of the icebergs circling the island from the school's location. If people were still cold, there was more warm food than usual out on the tables, and hot drinks were being kept well-stocked.

Along with the tables and chairs near the food, there was a table of nametags, and two signs: one listing the Big Sibling/Little Sibling pairings, and one listing rooms and roommates for the new students.

It was time for the picnic to begin!

[OCD is up! This is part one of the picnic, specifically for 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.]

"Not so far, but the day is young yet. If someone doesn't arrive, we may need to send out the search portals."

She was only partly serious. Harriet moved to scratch the dog behind the ears, saying, "And you're certainly a charming fellow, aren't you?" She glanced up. "In that case, I'm simply Harriet. No need for titles, everyone knows who I am."

"Oh, he's a devil of a thing," Abby Irene said as she too leaned down to give his head a pet and a quick pat on the back. "Spoiled as anything, I suppose, but he's one of the most dependable men in my life."

The scritching earned Harriet another lick and a tail wagging almost fast enough to kick up a small breeze. Considering that she'd had his docked, as she'd had no intention of making him a ratter, this was quite an achievement.

"A pleasure to make your acquaintance, Harriet. You're certainly putting most of my fears to rest about the next few months."

She liked having a woman in charge. If there was anyone who'd paid for the death of the Iron Queen and the end of her reign, it was Abby Irene.

"And yours, Abby Irene. I'm pleased I could set your mind at ease." Harriet gave the dog another quick pat on the head and straightened. "I acquired a cat recently. Quite the troublemaker he was, too, until we made a quick trip to the vet." She laughed quietly. "Now he's a well-behaved and polite companion."

Mike didn't pout.

Well, he did, just a little, but then he settled down between the two women, one paw on Abby Irene's boot.

"Cats are lovely creatures as well, very mindful of my work, thankfully. But they can be almost purposefully unhelpful sometimes. I'm glad you got things straightened out. What's his name, if you don't mind me asking?"
