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

[bigdamnprincipal]

Yes, there were even more tents on the other side of the lawn.

Yes, the tables and chairs that had been set up there were still close to the ice cream.

Priorities are very important here at Fandom High.

"I... don't know? It's the only mall I've ever been to," she admitted.

Aw, Elle totally felt sorry for her. "It doesn't matter! We'll check it out and if nothing else buy a big fat pretzel and cute hats. Which oooh! Leto mentioned a hat shop here. I would love to get a cute hat. We should go!"

"That's Irulan's shop," Fiona replied, "and I got hats there the other week. She's very nice and her hats are... certainly interesting. You met Leto?"

"Interesting is super fun, isn't it? I met this girl, Harper, and she had on this hat today that was totally cute. More for a costume party but it was adorable that she wore it today to greet new people. I did! He's super friendly and his eyes are gorgeous. We had a pleasant conversation. Is he a friend of yours?"

"He's one of my best friends," she said, warmth entering her tone. No, she didn't have a crush on him, but he was very dear to her. She loved him very much, really.

"He was one of the first people to make me feel comfortable."

"Aw, that's so sweet! It's so nice to be welcomed, isn't it? I wasn't nervous too much coming here and everyone I've met so far has been super kind. Except for this village barbarian girl. She kills puppies and kittens and I think it's awful! She arrived in a sack of all things! I felt sorry for her because being bagged up like that is all kinds of illegal and then she had this sharp theatre prop and scared me." Elle didn't know the girl was inwardly laughing at her.

"...she must be new."

"She was. I met her this morning before we got on the bus. I think I should just avoid her and especially keep an eye on Bruiser." Blink. "Maybe I should send her an anonymous gift basket. She could just be having a bad day. She from somewhere in the northern west far far away. She said she was a ninja but it was obvious that she was a village heathen."

"There are a few people who are ninjas," she told Elle slowly, hoping not to scare her.

"But none of them were like that."

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009-2]

"What like... here?"

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009-2]

[cutsthestrings.livejournal.com]

"Yeah."

She wasn't sure if she'd call Ino a 'friend' but the girl wasn't anything to be frightened of.

"They're really' uh, how did she put this? "helpful. At leats, Ino is. And she's fun to work with."

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009-2]

"I thought ninja's covered themselves head to foot in black and lived their lives being stealthy. I guess TV is totally wrong about them. What does Ino do that you work with her for? I mean... are there like ninja lessons offered here or something?"

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009-2]

"...sort of?"

She blushed a little.

"Well, there's the reserves, that are so that we have kind of, well, training and a plan if something happens. There's the one for the fighters, the one for people who do magic, and the one for people who want to help with support. I worked with her on the reserves. Oh, and she helped me pick a flower for work."

"I'm sorry. I don't think I get that. Students train to fight in case something happens... to the island? To students?" Omigod she totally couldn't fight.

"Yeah. It doesn't happen too often, but it does happen. If it does, the safest place is the dorms, so if you're there, stay there."

Shopping was more fun to talk about, Elle decided. Being scared her first day here wouldn't do.

She grinned wide. "Maybe next week we can go to the mall? Or visit the hot tub?"

Dreaming about giant alligators was totally going to suck.

Switches of topics were good.

"We should totally go to the mall. And I'll show you the onsen."

"Yay! Now for getting situated in my room, omigod I have tons of luggage to unpack but I'm excited too because I get to decorate my side of the room! Do you have a roommate?"

Re: More General Mingling [Summer 2009-2]

[cutsthestrings.livejournal.com]

"I have a new roommate even," she shared with a smile.

"Tara is her name. She's really nice."
