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

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.

"University thing?" he guessed.

Marshall nodded. "I don't think my parents have really realized yet she's not intending to go."

"I still think she should," Mitchell muttered, glancing towards the graduates. "I wouldn't put it past her to get on a plane as soon as this is done and run off somewhere else in the world."

"Well, she has at least... a month, in this place's time, before they'll even start asking about graduation," Marshall shrugged. He honestly hadn't expected Kate to be too into pursuing an academic future. "Could you honestly see her going to college?"

"I couldn't see half the people at university going to university," Mitchell replied. "Doesn't mean they shouldn't. It's a future."

"Well, good luck convincing her of that," Marshall replied, wryly. "Because she seems pretty determined to me."

"Kate's always determined about everything," Mitchell said, shrugging. He poked around his pocket for his packet of cigarettes. "Give it time."

"We'll see," Marshall replied. "We'll just... see. She might come off the stage with a whole new plan."

"There's more of the spirit," Mitchell said, grinning. "It takes a while for some people to sort themselves out."
