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

[bigdamnprincipal]

In order to give people a place to get away from the traffic jam of the buffet and information tables, most of the chairs and tables had been set up further out on the lawn, away from the school building. The bonfires were going strong, and there was plenty of room for everyone to sit down and enjoy themselves. Assuming they weren't too busy still trying to figure this place out.

[OCD is up! 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!]

"The island does stuff like this, don't worry! And I'm sorry I glomped you." Momoko was used to people taking a few minutes to process her conversations, especially when she first met them. Still, it was a slight pang to have it be WARREN's face hesitating at her.

"Is Houston near El Paso? That's the only place I've been in Texas."

"Not really; about twelve hours," Leo said. "But I came here from New York. I haven't been to Texas in a while."

Momoko bounced again. "I've been to New York too! Warren took me on a tour when I got lost there!" She raised a finger. "Ah! Sorry! Not the Warren that you look like, a different one. The Warren from New York has wings, my Warren has fire powers."

Leo was never completely able to hide his feelings on things, so there was a brief look of worry at the mention of fire powers, but he managed to cover it up with a look of interest quickly. Maybe fire has nothing to do with his role in a prophecy; maybe there was just something wrong with his face.

"Wings is a new one," Leo said, because he totally didn't want to talk about fire. "Are they on his shoulders like an angel or on his ankles like Hermes?"

Momoko looked at him like he'd grown another head. "Why would they be on his feet? You totally have no control flying like that. Well, with wings, I mean. Wouldn't you be all off-balance?"

"Uh, well I know--well I don't know him--but the Greek god Hermes has winged shoes," Leo explained. "He seems to fly all right with them."

Or so he's heard. The gods have been MIA for a while.

"Totally weird." She'd be thinking about this, now, Leo. "I mean, I have shoes that let me fly, but that's not wings. Warren's wings are on his back, though. I'm totally going to ask him about the feet thing. He and I fly differently, since I don't have wings."

She grinned, filing that away for later. "So, how can you be from Houston and New York? Aren't they far apart?"

Re: More General Mingling [Spring 2011]

"Yeah, really far apart. I was born in Houston and lived there most my life," Leo explained. "But the last few months I've been living in New York. That's where I'm gonna go back to during breaks and stuff."

"Wow! I don't know Houston, but El Paso seemed totally different from New York. But I guess if that's where your family is." She smiled and shrugged. "I'm from Tokyo City, by the way. Japan."

"Man, that's far from here," he said, shaking his head. "What brings you to school in this country?"

"A portal?" Momoko joked.

"I've been coming to school here since my sophomore year. It a totally awesome school. I think you'll like it here. It's like my second home, now, even if it's in a totally different world."
