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

The weather was still lovely, of course. And there were all these neat tables of moddable snackies to help break those awkward silences that were so common with teenage get-togethers.

So... yeah.

Enjoy!

Claire grinned. "Okay. Let's see."

She walked to a different part of the food table. "There's some cheese cubes and crackers there," she said, pointing them out. "Or there's some cheese and bread that you can make into sandwiches."

Ariel easily gravitated toward the cheese cubes; she liked the shape of them and they were easy to pop into her mouth, which was one of the fun things about eating in this picking sort of way. So in one went, a nice pretty yellow one.

Oh my gosh.

Cheese was awesome!

Cheese was awesome. Claire would definitely agree.

"You might wanna take a break from eating," she warned. "Too much new stuff too fast could make you sick."

But...there was so much more to try! Ariel shot Claire a slightly sulking look, popped at least one more cube of cheese into her mouth, and then sighed in acquiescence. It would probably be a good idea to listen to the human regarding things like human stomachs.

"There will be plenty of other chances for you try new stuff," Claire promised. "The common rooms in the dorm are a great place to hang out because people will go there to cook and bake. And there's a cafeteria that serves lunch every day."

Now where did she put that--ah! There it was! Ariel relocated the notebook and just may have sneaked another cube of cheese on her way to grabbing it.

Good food? she wrote, tilting her head hopefully.

"Yeah, it is," Claire told her. "What floor are you on in the dorm?"

Sure, Ariel had the notebook, but this one she could answer without it, so she did. She needed to get used to the nonverbal thing as much as she could, after all.

She held out a hand, all five fingers splayed. Floor five! She pushed the five forward and followed it with a one and a seven. Five one seven!

"I don't know if people cook in that common room a lot, but I'm in 312 and there's almost always someone cooking on my floor," Claire told her. "So if you're ever looking for something to eat, it might be a good place to start."
