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

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

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.]

"You teach about Africa?" Belle asked, her eyes going even wider, if that was possible. "Oh my. I'd love to go somewhere that amazing. And I completely agree -- books are amazing, but if I can have my own adventure, instead of reading about someone else's, well...." She shrugged, laughing a little. "Well, that line of thought is how I ended up here, actually."

"I not only teach about it," said Jane, unable to help pulling herself up quite proudly, pleased to have an impressed response to that, "I've been there, several times. Best way to learn about apes is to see them for yourself, after all. And that's wonderful! Did you plan to come here from the start, or was it just the winds of adventure that brought you here?"

"Something like that," Belle admitted with a light giggle. "I found the brochure, and...well, I'd just finished my last big adventure. It only seemed right to find something new."

And if Adam hadn't exactly loved the idea, he'd supported it in the end, and that was important.

"So you teach the study of...apes?" Belle added carefully. "Or all African wildlife?"

"Well," said Jane, "mostly apes, or any sort of primate, really, though I do have an interest in all wildlife. The African jungles are so incredibly diverse that it would be absolutely impossible to study all of them at once, which is terribly unfortunate. I do love to sketch them all, though; you'll find everything, even plants, in my sketchbooks. It's so beautiful in Africa; you should absolutely go if you get a chance, though I recommend a guide, as it's quite dangerous, as well."
