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

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.]

Really, she was just going to smile and nod at all of these things, only without the smiling.

"And I thought my life was crazy before." It was more than she wanted to say, though, and she immediately clammed up again.

Ronan nodded. "You'll get used to it," he assured her. "Well. You'll get used to wondering how you ever thought you'd gotten used to it."

Somehow that wasn't that reassuring -- and yet it kind of was.

"So about par for the course then," Katchoo said offhandedly.

"Pretty much, yeah," Ronan replied. "I think you'll have no trouble adjusting. But if you need anything, I'm in room 507."

"Heh," Katchoo said, not that much mirth in the expression. "I'm in 505, turns out. With some crazy costumed nerd who thinks he's a robot."

She was going to cling to that mistaken belief for just a little while longer.

"Yeah?" Ronan asked. "Sure he's not actually a robot? I don't think we've had any before, but I've only been here and year and, hey, even Anders doesn't know about himself yet."

"I'm trying to hold on to the little sanity I have," Katchoo replied; sometimes, if she was lucky, it was a response that made people leave her alone, though she wasn't so sure how well it would work right now. "Let me have my version."

"Sanity," Ronan said, quite firmly, "at this school, is rather distinctly overrated."

"You're not helping," Katchoo said, looking at him like he'd just kicked a puppy.
