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

[bigdamnprincipal]

Since the area with all the informational signs was bound to get a bit clogged up, even more tables and chairs had been set up on the lawn, in a slightly different spot.

Now Shilo was really, really confused. Singing frogs? Where the hell had she gotten herself? Was she hallucinating?

"Hi!" Robin waved. "Welcome to Fandom! My name's Robin, what's yours?"

"I'm Shilo." She boggled on. "It's nice to meet you."

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

"It's nice to meet you too Shilo. Where are you from?"

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

"The future. I'm from New York City." Even if it was a talking frog, he was certainly the conversationalist... and damned if he wasn't putting Shilo at ease. "And where do you come from?"

"I'm from Florida, the Everglades to be exact. And it's also the mid 80's where I'm from."

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

"You're from a different time too?" Shilo asked, sounding overwhelmingly relieved at the thought.

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

"Uh huh. It was really weird at first, but I got used to it pretty quickly. What year is it where you're from?"

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

[17andinfected.livejournal.com]

"2056. Er... what year is it... now?"

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

"Woooooooooooooow." Robin gasped in awe. "It's 2009 now. In your time are there people living in outer space?"

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

[17andinfected.livejournal.com]

"Er. No. Some... bad things happened. So people are still stuck here on Earth." She shrugged. "Sorry."

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

"Oh, that's okay. Are the bad things done with though?"

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

[17andinfected.livejournal.com]

Shilo bit her lip. "Unfortunately, no. I sort of ran away from the bad stuff."

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

Eep. "Well, I'm glad you got away."

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

[17andinfected.livejournal.com]

"Thanks... I guess." Shilo looked down at her feet. "So why did you leave Florida for here? I heard that it's always nice down there."

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

"Oh it is. But I like to travel, and I want to be a performer like my Uncle Kermit. He lives in LA. So I get sent here to expand my horizons."

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

[17andinfected.livejournal.com]

Shilo nodded. "I suppose there's worse places you could be sent for schooling."

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

"Oh this place is great! So many neat people to talk to, and things to see."

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

[17andinfected.livejournal.com]

"I hope so. I could use... neat." Anything seemed appealing after the future she had escaped.

"Just watch out for Gremlins."

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

[17andinfected.livejournal.com]

"Gremlins?" Shilo arched an eyebrow. "Is that slang for something?"

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

"Nope, Gremlins are little green guys...my size but not as cute. They sometimes bite, and the people they bite think they're someone else for awhile."

"Does... does this happen a lot?" Shilo was suddenly very grateful for the knee-high leather boots on her feet.

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

"Fairly often. It's kind of funny actually."

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009]

[17andinfected.livejournal.com]

"Maybe. What do people act like when they're... bit?"
