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.

[OCD is up! This is the SECOND post for general mingling. Use this post if your browser can't handle the comment load of the first mingling post. Roommates, fake siblings and teachers are here.]

"You haven't freaked out. I'd say you're doing pretty well." Tahiri took a step closer and held a hand out. "Tahiri Veila, by the way. Nice to meet you, um . . . ?"

"Griff O'Conner," he said, moving in to shake her hand, amazed someone was markedly shorter than him for once today. "I'd add something about being new to that, but I think you realized it already."

"You can kind of tell who the new kids are." Tahiri grinned; up, of course, as usual. Whether or not she realized it her job at these things was to make people feel better about their height, apparently. "Welcome to Fandom, Griff."

"Thanks, with any luck I'll be perfectly adjusted next you see me. Or incarcerated." For the murder of his roommate.

"That second part," Tahiri observed, "doesn't sound so promising. Don't do that?"

"I intend to avoid it, but you never know how these new living situations will go," Griff told her. "Does most everyone have a bunkmate?"

"Pretty much." Tahiri nodded and fiddled with her sleeve. "Is your roommate one of the new kids, or have they been here a while?"

"If he's not new, I understand why any old roommate turned him out," Griff replied. "Boy named Karev, pure acid, that one."

"Oh," Tahiri said, her expression melting into pure sympathy. "Oh. He's my . . . little sibling. If you ever need to get away, you're welcome to come by my room or something. Because you really don't want to end up in jail."

"Oh yeah? Don't suppose he was too pleasant for that conversation," Griff remarked. "But thanks for the offer. I'm considering stealing his mattress for fun."

[*COUGH* YOU DIDN'T SEE THAT!]

"If you do, I'll help," Tahiri said with a snort. "I have no idea how I got out of that without kicking him where he doesn't want to be kicked."

"I'm glad it wasn't just me getting that impression," Griff replied. "He start out on edge with you, too?"

"He was just a sarcastic, obnoxious jerk right off," Tahiri grumbled.
