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.

"...Do I want to know?" Cally asked when she'd spotted him in the stands and made her way over with a couple of programmes in hand.

"It's Koninginnedag," Dolf said, cheerfully. "Queen's Day. I have to wear orange."

That wasn't a law.

"It...doesn't clash with the school colours too badly?" Cally offered.

Yes. Yes, it did.

"It's supposed to clash and stand out," Dolf replied, grinning at her. "Orange is our colour. I don't think it can not clash."

She'd already lied and said it didn't clash, so she couldn't .... fine, fine, she could. "Good, because I was lying. It clashes rather spectacularly."
