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

The weather was nice, the school wasn't currently under attack from forces not of this universe and they were still in Iceland. Oh yeah, it was day one of the rest of the newbies' lives.

Welcome to fandom, kiddos. Try not to trip over left over sombreros from Thursday!


[Please wait for OCD is up! This is part one of the picnic, specifically for meeting siblings, roommates, and teachers. The rest of the picnic is happening here and here, in an effort to keep browsers from breaking for as long as possible.]

Claudia's eyebrows went up at that. Oho. Someone had a bit of an attitude.

She could relate.

She tapped her name tag, and adjusted the goggles pushed up on her head. "Claudia Donovan. Your new big sister."

[ooc: Have fun! Glad I caughtcha before you left!]

"If I had a nickel for every time I'd heard that 'new big sibling' line, I might... have enough for a chocolate bar or something, actually," Toby admitted.

Claudia gave him a quick look over and nodded to herself. "Got kicked around the system a bit, huh?"

She could relate.

"What, is there something pasted to my forehead that gives it away?" Toby said dryly.

"No, but I can recognize my own kind." Man, was she glad to be out of that mess. "Come on, we can grab some food while we talk."

"Is it really that much better here?" Toby asked, distracted enough to not realise he was responding more to her thoughts than her actual words.
notmyownage: (*goes "uhhhh"*)

Some folks around here might be more used to having their thoughts read. Claudia was not one of them.

"What?"

Re: Meet Your Big/Little Sibling (Summer 2011)

"Uh," think fast, Toby. "The food? Is it any good, I mean?" Kind of a weak save, but he was just going to hope she went for it.
notmyownage: (*is confused*)

She didn't entirely, but didn't press the point. "It's pretty good. Better than you'll get without cooking or knowing someone who cooks most of the year around here."

"I make a mean pot of ramen," Toby offered. "Or KD if I'm feeling really adventurous. Sometimes I even put hot dogs in with it." Toby Logan: culinary genius.

Claudia had no idea what KD was. "Yep, that's about as creative as I usually get, too." When she wasn't overclocking the waffle irons and nearly setting the kitchen on fire. "So. Welcome to Fandom. It takes adjusting to, but you get used to it, after awhile."

Toby was about to clarify that KD was macaroni, but then it clicked that Claudia's confusion hadn't been out loud. "I'm beginning to realise that," he said instead. "They had a room ready for me. And, well, you assigned to me or whatever. That's pretty weird."

"Well, they only assigned me to you a few minutes ago. I was 'to be determined' for a while, there. But, uh, yeah. Stuff like that is kind of the least of it."

"...I'm not gonna regret hopping on that bus, am I?" Toby asked, now a little dubious.

"Dunno, dude. Most people I've met like it. It just takes getting used to. Also, I'd steer clear of any gremlins, and keep rum on hand for squirrels."

"Rum?" Toby echoed, finishing piling just about everything he could fit on his plate. "Getting wildlife drunk is an acceptable pastime here?"

"Only the squirrels. They're the reporters for the radio, and apparently they're all alcoholics."
