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

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.

She took it back, slipping it into her bag.

"That's because I'm not in that mess."

She pointed at the crowd.

It wasn't the number of people that bothered George, but...

"They're all so bloody happy."

"...that too," she said, not startled by what he'd said, but as if she was just realizing another part of why the assembly sort of bothered her.

He shrugged lightly, giving her a crooked smile, and it wasn't like George Cooper of all people could talk against others concealing their true feelings, but it still seemed odd. "P'raps it's jus' puttin' on the' good face for th' new arrivals?"

She shook her head then before opening her mouth, closing it, and finally sighing out.

"Other than me earlier, probably not. Everyone here is pretty nice. Nicer than I'm used to, anyway."

"So next time I meet ye, you'll be a cruel an' heartless lass?" George asked. He nodded, processing the information. That probably meant they'd be nicer than he was used to too given the whole Rogue situation. "I suppose I couldn't be complainin' about that. Be stupid to bibble about people bein' nice."

Even if it was weird.

"No, I've... I'm a bit odd," she said after a minute, "and it takes me a while to warm up to people. I'd never be cruel, though."

"Besides the cuttin' anything wi' a piece of string?" George checked, his curiosity out of control.

She leaned forward, almost teasingly.

"If I told you, you'd probably think I was mad. But that wasn't what I meant."

"An' what did ye mean, Fiona?" he asked, grinning at her. "But now ye have me all wonderin' about why I'd think ye mad."

"Just meant I'm not used to people," she said, smiling just a little.

"Though you'll just have to wonder for the moment."
