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.

"It makes her laugh," Rory said with a nod. "And she can levitate stuff on her own, though her control is...still developing."

That was a diplomatic way of saying, 'There are reasons we can't shop certain places anymore, now that Juliet's thrown tantrums there.'

"Yeah, I think my family has some horror stories about those days," she said with some sympathy. "I promise that control thing gets better."

"It better, soon," Rory said fretfully. "We're on the waitlist for a couple preschools already, and I don't want to think about how fast we'd get kicked out if she bounced a classmate out a window."

"Please tell me she's not that good yet," Jaina said.

"Not yet, but she's still growing and babies are small," Rory said.
