The Lawn | Noon Onward!

[suit-of-awesome.livejournal.com]

With graduation festivities occurring over the weekend, the school administration expected most of the graduation guests to begin arriving today. To ensure guests felt welcomed, Barney's student council minions had set up a small gathering on the lawn where the guests could arrive, mingle, and feign relaxation before heading off with their graduates.

Or where they could all hear about how George got the makeouts with his girl the night before. Someone was a little chatty while hefting the tables and chairs that would serve guests well for getting a load off after travel, and Barney thought it was a tale worth sharing. For the hungry and forgetful, there were finger foods and nametags spread out on a long table. It was time to get the all-weekend grad party started!

"There are trousers where they're sewn shut on purpose," and Fiona crossed her arms thoughtfully.

"Though now you've made me imagine a mismatched pants tree. It's a very odd image."

[whereas I was thinking of 'and the pants were dead (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHxyZaZlaOs)' because I'm odd.]

Griff shook his head, "Be careful, you say things like that and they sprout up around campus. Meanwhile, all our pants disappear from the laundry."

"You know I don't have to be too careful. It'd really only be terribly inconvenient for the boys."

"I end up with no pants and you'll have me banging on your door to complain," Griff warned.

Very smooth eyebrow-raise.

"With no pants?"

...Apparently so. "Not like I'd be worried for showing off my shorts." She'd seen them before.
