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

[bigdamnprincipal]

More tables and chairs had been set up further out on the lawn, where there weren't as many trees, and so there wasn't as much shade either. Still, it was bound to be quieter over here than closer to the main area.

[OCD is up! Have at it! This is the SECOND post for general mingling. Use this post if your browser can't handle the comment load of the first mingling post. Roommates, fake siblings and teachers are here. Since it's outside, the picnic is open to all students, teachers, and townies!]

Keep eating and drinking! There are starving children who would love to have that food you're wasting!

As was he often did at these picnics, Robin brought his banjo. His current selection was Octopus's Garden. No particular reason why, he just liked the song.

Alex was still at the picnic, having gotten himself some food. He was back on the edges of the crowd, propped up against a tree where he could smoke and eat.

Alexander's nerves had settled to the point where he neither worried about there being so many people or that some mad magician or disapproving noble would come down and smite him for digging into the food. He finally got himself a plate, a modest portion of things he could easily recognize while only a little bit of the the things he didn't (he was feeling adventurous), and then went to find a nice spot to sit and eat.

He picked the shade underneath a tree. Because there was neither mad magician or disapproving noble to stop him.

Hannibal was still wandering around without a shirt, thankful for the warm day. He had a drink in one hand and was sipping from it while he mingled.

Kate the cat was somewhere in the middle of the crowd and Bod was letting her have her fun while he found a spot on the grass and sat down. He wasn't so much tired as he enjoyed watching the goings on from a spot outside the crowd.

Realizing the the crop of new boys was actually fairly small, it seemed, Ariel decided by this point that she could relax a little, laying out comfortably in a spot of sun on the grass, with a pair of shades, and just enjoying the view. Because oh yeah. How could you not?

Harper knew that there would be new kids around today, and many of them might need some fashion guidance. She would be happy to provide it and even dressed for the occasion, since her driver's ed outfit came complete with a road map. Besides, she would be sure to stand out from the crowd that way.

Don't ask. It really makes sense in her head.

Surprisingly, Lindsay was still at the picnic. She was even willing to mingle. Maybe.

Luke had officially decided he liked this place and celebrating with...more food.

Don't judge him, he'll work it off in the gym later.

It was a hot day, and Lion-o knew all about tradition. So, after getting something to eat and finding some shade under a tree, he took his shirt off.

Hoshi was smiling as she walked around, but it was a bittersweet feeling to know that this was her last welcome picnic. She would be gone by the time the next one was held.

Jason had talked to a few people and prepped his little sibling as well as he could. Now, he had a plate full of food and was sitting down to play another round of "Spot the new people."

Katniss knew all too well that there were starving children who would kill for this kind of food, so while she was stuffed, she still had a full plate that she was considering smuggling to her dorm room.

In the mean time, she'd relaxed a bit. She was utterly baffled as to where she was and what this meant, but she was fairly sure no one was going to attack her, at least for now. So she found a spot to stretch out in the sun, and set to memorizing her surroundings.

Sookie, at this point, was sort of basking in the warmth of the sun. Hey -- outside, new people, shirtless boys, nice day? Didn't get much better than this. So she was idly picking at some grapes as she watched the new kids get acclimated behind her sunglasses.

Puck was, naturally, still wandering around without his shirt. He'd reapplied sunscreen and tanning oil a bit ago, after seeing Quinn -- since that was a shock -- but otherwise was still as comfortable and relaxed and shirtless as before.

Wesley had had enough of tripping all over everyone and answering his new roommate's awkward questions. He meandered over to the side and took a seat under a tree, delicately eating finger food with a fork.

Yes, those snazzy denim carpenter shorts and that sports bra probably cost a lot more than a comparable pair of yours did, and Kennedy was still of the opinion that she wore them well, so the shirt (also expensive)? Still off.

The girl? Lounging under a tree, fielding occasional emails from her Watcher on her phone.

You could usually tell when that happened; there'd be a ding, followed by a muttered "God, Constance."

Other than that, Kennedy's mood was high on the positive end of the scale.

Well, Firekeeper certainly knew about being starving. Which is why she, like any other time there was food present, was contentedly munching on a few things.

Blind Seer, too, had managed to find a few sausages, and the two of them were sprawled out under their tree people-watching.

Tim was keeping an eye out for interesting-looking new people and filling up a plate with food. He was currently trying out each kind of chip with each kind of dip. Hadn't found a bad combo yet.

Faith was wondering if she should get some real drink now, or wait until the picnic got a little less crowded.

But she was still around, eyeing anyone who could be remotely related to her.

Claudia? Still chilling out, and still wearing her welding goggles. And, yeah, still wishing she'd managed to finish reconstructing her trebuchet.

After meeting his roommate, Gunn settled himself down with a plate of food to check out the newbies and see just what kind of trouble this semester might happen.

I'd apologize for the flist spam, but I'm really not sorry. :D
