Fandom High Graduation Ceremony, Class of 2011, Saturday Early Evening - Part One!

[prof_of_cunning]

The ceremony was once again held at sunset for the benefit of the graduates’ less diurnal guests, but the lawn was well-lit with twinkling blue and gold lights draped across bleachers, stage, surrounding trees and specially-assembled trellises, giving the overall effect of a peaceful fairy grove. (Not, say, Las Vegas. Tasteful twinkling lights.)

The staff having taken note of every previous graduation including the most recent, the lights had been purchased from Acme Decorations Studio with a money-back No Coming To Life And Terrorizing Your Party Guests Guarantee... and there was a rather large cache of weapons stashed in a trunk behind the podium. The chance that it would rain toys that could later be used for self-defense was slightly less than the chance that there would be a need for self-defense.

No one could say Fandom High wasn’t a learning experience.

As if it had been planned - and perhaps because fate had made it so - Ghanima came in and took the seat next to Leto, without even looking around to see who else was there.

//We are in accord?// she asked in Fremen, using the ancient inflection to mean that they were one, that all had gone according to the Golden Path and that he was now her Leto. The physiological changes to his body, as well as her Bene Gesserit training told her it was so, but it was the sister who asked, not the adept.

As she sat down next to her, Leto reached out his hand for hers, and turned his head to smile at her. Then he leaned in to kiss her cheek. //Yes.// His relief to finally experience that here was obvious.

"I've been looking forward to this." Not this particular ceremony, but being here, with her, with no secrets necessary.
