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

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

If anyone had hoped for good weather for the picnic, their wish had been granted as the day turned out to be sunny and warm. Everything had been cleaned up, spiffed up and bedazzled dazzled made as perfect as possible for the new arrivals. They deserved at least a few moments of pleasantness before the weirdness started to sink in.

May whatever deity they believed in help them now.

As usual, there were long tables set up with food and drinks, 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. With everything in place, the picnic was ready 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.]

"This entire day has been a little on the unbalanced side," Algren said, trying to sound reassuring and managing to come off mostly just dazed and confused. "Maybe earlier, I might have thought otherwise."

And then, on an impulse, it was introduction time.

"Captain Nathan Algren, by the way. Apparently, I'll be teaching American History alongside a gentleman by the name of Tyler Durden."

"Miss Elizabeth Bennet, literature teacher," she smiled. "We share a common acquaintance, then. Mr. Durden was previously my landlord. He's a very kind gentleman. How did you and he come to teach together?"

"To tell you the truth, Miss, I haven't the foggiest clue."

It had been that sort of night.

"For the time being, I'll just thank the island for that one, too. At the very least, I am thankful to have found... Saner persons since my arrival here."

Yes, he was casting a wary sort of gaze off in the general direction of a certain berserker.

Eliza noticed the glance and flushed. "He is a bit effusive, but a kindly gentleman all the same," she said. "I assure you, most of the residents on this island are well-intentioned, if somewhat eccentric at times."

"I think it's the good intentions that I'm most worried about," Algren replied, relaxing enough to offer Eliza a bit of a smile. "But I'll take your word for it. I've seen worse things in life than a bit of eccentricity."

Especially given his current situation.
