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

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!]

When Puck sat down, Ariel turned her head, nice and nonchalant, and quirked a brow as she took in the view, even pulling her sunglasses a little down her nose to peer over them for a better look. She was in full surveying mode.

Then she shrugged a shoulder. Meh. It was okay. It would have been better if there had been more male new kids, but she liked that the lack of them seemed to allow her to relax and enjoy the scenery better.

"Aww, come on, it's awesome not being new! You get to haze the new kids and now you're all old and know what to expect," Puck pointed out, stretching languidly. For her benefit, naturally.

Ariel truly appreciated his consideration for her sake. She was going to appreciate his thoughtfulness before arching a skeptical brow at him, wondering exactly what sort of hazing he'd be engaging in.

Because if getting to watch hot guys walk around all afternoon without their shirts on was hazing, Ariel wanted to be a new kid again.

"There's a girl from my hometown here," he told her, wincing. "And she's like, the worst person ever to put somewhere like this, with all the weird shit that happens, you know? She's gonna think someone slipped something in her Vitamin Water the first time she sees a gremlin or whatever."

That seemed to be a good way to put it.

Well, now, that could be interesting. And not just in the freak out potential, but someone from Puck's hometown might be interesting to mine for information. Not that Puck seemed the type you'd want to dig too far into, but it could prove for either some interesting or inspirational results.

Ariel's mouth formed a little o of intrigued, tilting her head to look out toward the crowd and then looking back to Puck to see if he could point her out at all.

Puck picked out an athletic-looking blonde, pointing discreetly. "Quinn Fabray. My best friend's girlfriend." He rolled his eyes. "She's president of the chastity club and head cheerleader, back home. So, you know. One of those."

Whatever, that just made her all the more unattainable, and thus interesting to Puck. But he wasn't going to say that.

Ariel really didn't need to lean in closer to Puck to get the gist of where he was pointing, but of course she was going to do it anyway. And, despite all the things Puck offered by way of description that should convince her there wasn't a threat, she still wrinkled her nose slightly to see that this Quinn was cute and pretty and blonde.

Whatever, everyone knew redheads were hotter anyway.

Ariel pointedly lowered her sunglasses to give her a good look, than smiled, tilting her head. She seemed nice!

"Do not let her fool you. That girl'll rip you apart. Or try," Puck added quietly, naturally also leaning closer to tell Ariel this. Also unnecessary, but hey, he was going to do it anyway. "She's super-scary when she wants to be. So maybe like, gremlins and stuff aren't a problem."

Ariel turned her head slightly, grinning, wondering if maybe the gremlins would run away from her and also wondering how much of what Puck said was accurate. If it was, this Quinn might be someone Ariel'd want to get on her side, without a doubt.

Plus, grinning and glancing toward Puck meant moving in just a little bit closer still. And she just prayed that this time, when she was right there, she wasn't going to sneeze.

Stupid pollen allergies that just did not exist under water!

He was also kind of hoping that no one would sneeze, as that ruined moods, generally, and reached to tuck a strand of her hair back.

Of course, as he did so, a freaking huge bug landed on his arm, causing Puck to jerk back and swat at it, swearing.

In a manly way. Really.

Ariel jumped back a little, too, not so much from the bug (she rolled with sharks back home, bugs were nothing), but because those were some very interesting words she didn't think she'd ever heard before, and that was quite a smack, and not at all what she expected because she was just getting her hair brushed back which was supposed to then end in a kiss.

Which didn't happen.

Which put her at four for the week. Four. She sighed, trying not to be too annoyed, and looked toward Puck to see if he was okay. Not dying from poison in any bug bites or festering with boils or anything?
