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

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.]

"No, women are not quite so free there," Éowyn admitted. "My uncle is the king, which allows me to have more freedom than some. I may speak my mind freely without recourse, although I am certain my brother wishes I did not do so often. But to fight? To learn the skills of a man? No, all that I know I have learned in secret."

At least she wasn't wearing a burka was Meg's first thought, but then she reminded herself that they weren't just talking about cultural differences but most likely a completely different world. Which meant that while Eowyn was here, Meg was going to have to show her all freedoms women had.

"You should talk to Professor Skywalker. He's skilled in swordfighting." A light saber was essentially a fancy sword after all. "Maybe he can help you. Or suggest someone that can."
