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

The recent cold front had been a welcome weather pattern as far as Zoe was concerned, and she was very grateful for how things had turned out today - it was sunny and breezy, and just cool enough that no one would pass out from heat exhaustion. Hopefully.

Beneath the blue and gold streamers and balloons, tables had been set up with drinks and food, including an entire table of moddable different ice cream flavors. As always, there was a stack of nametags set down next two signs: one listing the Big Sibling/Little Sibling pairings, and one listing rooms and roommates for the new students.

[OCD is up! Have at it! This is part one of the picnic, specifically for meeting siblings, roommates, and teachers. The rest of the picnic is happening here and here, in an effort to keep browsers from breaking for as long as possible. Since it's outside, the picnic is open to all students, teachers, and townies!]

Maladicta nodded, patting him once on the arm. "Good to know that is universal."

"Riiiiight," Bobby drawled. "What's an achooin?"

"Never mind," Maladicta said with too much cheer. "Tell me about this place."

He was starting to get the feeling she wasn't from around here. Hmmm.

"Fandom? It's kind of- I feel like I should just make a list. It's gonna rain weird stuff, probably food, at some point. People transform into other people or just think they're other people. I hear there's gremlins but I've been here a year now and never actually seen one... oh yeah, and there's a bunch of people from different worlds or times here," he rattled off. It was clear he'd said this speech a few times by now, yeah.

"Right." She was just going to nod for the moment. "Good to know then."

That wasn't insane at all!

Fandom was a bastion of normalcy. Really.

"You've got a good hat, at least," Bobby observed. "That'll help with the syrup rain."

"It's not entirely common back home, but I have heard of such things happening in Ankh-Morpork..."

Yup. Definitely not from around here. "I can't decide if I'm relieved or disappointed by that," Bobby admitted.
