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

Yup. There was still food. And tables. Nothing new about any of that, sadly. But maybe there would be shirtlessness? One can always hope, ya know. Dream big.

Dream big.

Not you, Jono. Eeeew.

"Could be wide-eyed with glee," she noted. "Hard to tell with some people, yeah? And true enough, I almost didn't show either, so hurrah for food and good company to keep me sticking 'round."

"Don't know that I count for company, but I have cookies." And he'd share them, even. "Did you flip when you came?"

"Can I have one?" she asked, giving him puppy eyes. "And I--so mean, making me think 'bout two whole years ago--I... didn't flip over the weird."

Ino tugged her hair.

"Flipped more 'bout a specific two, really. One was dead in my world but alive here, and the other was--traitor." And she'd wound up dating the traitor, go figure.

"'Course," he held out his hand, "Your choice of chocolate chip or...chocolate chip!" Creative boy, this one.

"Ouch, good reason to flip. I flipped over aliens on drugs and Claudia's hat."

"Do you have chocolate chip?" she teased, taking one. "Thanks."

"Aliens on drugs?" Ino laughed. "I think Claudia's hate was probably scarier."

"Yeah," he nodded emphatically. "But she's gone and taken it with her." This bothered him more than he would like.

"She's left already?" Ino sighed. "At least you can probably still write her, yeah?"

"Crazy, yeah? I'm thinking about it," he shrugged. "Bet in two years you've seen a lot more come and go."

"Ugh," she said, nibbling at her cookie. "I have, and I hate it. It's no fun watching people leave and getting left behind."

"I'm more used to doing the leaving," Griff said, letting out a breath slowly. "It's strange to stay in the same place."

"A nice strange?" she asked.

"It's relieving, yeah," he said. "Good to see the same faces and all that." Rather than just getting lost in the crowds.

"And people 'round here like it when there's people who stay 'round too," she added. "It's hard, on both sides of the leaving and staying."

"So what keeps you here, Ino?" Griff wondered, shoving a piece of cookie in his mouth.

"These days?" she leaned back and considered that. "I'm not willing to give up my friends here."

"That'd make it hard to go," he agreed. "What year are you?"

"Heading into junior," she said, smiling. "Got two years left. You?"

"Same, and glad to hear it," he replied, wondering about how he'd ended up happy to be hidden away at a school. It was so very Barry Plodder.
