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

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

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.

"Oooh, which floor is that?" asked Harper.

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

"Third floor," Eric said. "This girl, Kate, gave me candy and said it was the best."

Harper nodded. "The third floor is pretty cool. My best friend lives there, but I'm up on the fourth floor. We seem to have a pretty good group there, too. You're always welcome to join us."

"I will definitely keep that offer in mind, Harper," Eric promised.

"Where did you go to school before Fandom?" asked Harper.

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

"John Adams High in Philadelphia," Eric said. "How about you?"

"Tribeca Prep in New York City. It was a nice school, but it had a big clique of mean girls and wasn't so much fun after my best friend's parents sent her here," said Harper. "I really had to beg my parents to let me transfer to Fandom."

"Sounds like you and your best friend are as tight as my brother and his best friend," Eric said.

"Oh, yeah. Alex and I share just about everything!" said Harper.

Yeah, she was in for a shock when she found out that Alex and her brothes were wizards.

"Aww, that's sweet," Eric said.

"So, I'm sure people have been telling you all sorts of weird stuff about Fandom, right?" said Harper with a knowing smile.

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

[icallmyselfkyle.livejournal.com]

"Oh, yeah, all kinds of weird stuff," Eric agreed vaguely because his thread with his big was on SP."

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

[chic-harper.livejournal.com]

"Believe me, it's all true," warned Harper. "Especially the stuff about the squirrels. I refused to believe it for the longest time."

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

[icallmyselfkyle.livejournal.com]

"Squirrels are awesome!" Eric said.

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

"You might think otherwise after you hear the radio broadcast," said Harper, being deliberately vague. There were some things you had to learn for yourself, she felt.

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

[icallmyselfkyle.livejournal.com]

"I can't wait to listen!" Eric said.

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

"Oh, and you should probably check out the play," said Harper. "We're putting on a production of Scottish Play. Opening night is on Tuesday, and I'm in it!"

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

[icallmyselfkyle.livejournal.com]

Eric grinned. "I can do that."

Oh wait. "But I have plans on Tuesday. What other days are you performing?"

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

[chic-harper.livejournal.com]

"There's a second performance on Thursday evening," said Harper. "What are you doing on Tuesday, anyway?"

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

[icallmyselfkyle.livejournal.com]

"Oh, I have a date," Eric said.

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

[chic-harper.livejournal.com]

Harper blinked. "Wow, that was fast," she said. "I was here for a whole semester before I met my not-boyfriend."

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

[icallmyselfkyle.livejournal.com]

Eric grinned. "When you have hair this good, it's pretty easy."

But, aw. "So you have a boyfriend? Guess that means I can't ask you out."

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

[chic-harper.livejournal.com]

"Oh, we're not serious or anything. I'm sure he's interested in other people," Harper was quick to point out. That's what happens when the guy you like only likes boys.

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

"Then we should definitely go out sometime," Eric said.

Never mind that he had just told her he had a date with another girl.

Re: More General Mingling (Fall 2009)

A year ago, Harper probably would have flailed, stammered, started plotting to stalk Eric, or all of the above. But she'd gained some confidence since arriving in Fandom, and she managed to appear calm on the outside.

"We should definitely go out sometime," she agreed.
