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

[bigdamnprincipal]

In order to give people a place to get away from the traffic jam of the buffet and information tables, most of the chairs and tables for guests were set up further out on the lawn, under a tall blue and gold tent. There was plenty of room for everyone to sit down and enjoy themselves, but it might not have all been dry. Did we mention being grateful that it was just water falling from the sky?

[OCD is up! This is the SECOND post for general mingling. Use this post if your browser can't handle the comment load of the first mingling post. Roommates, fake siblings and teachers are here. Since it's outside, the picnic is open to all students, teachers, and townies!]

"Wouldn't want anyone to mistake you for someone else?" Jaime asked with a wry roll of his eyes.

"Of course not. No one else could be me."

HE WAS AWESOME.

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[weldedtomyspine]

"Thank goodness."

And he didn't have to fake his relief on that one.

"I could always call Booster. I'm sure he'd love to celebrate your graduation."

Yes. Party with Booster Gold. DO IT.a

...

"You wouldn't dare."

Jaime says that to Guy a lot. Which is silly of him since he knows that Guy would dare.

"Really?"

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[weldedtomyspine]

"Can we just pretend I didn't say that?" Jaime asked, trying not to sound too much like he was begging.

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[onepunchguy.livejournal.com]

Guy snorted, slapping him on the back. "Not at all!"

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[weldedtomyspine]

...

"Thanks."

You're the best, Guy. Except for not.

"What'd I miss here? Other than being in the past."

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[weldedtomyspine]

"Um... a lot?" Like most years, this last one had been very eventful. "Did you want, like, a list?"

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[onepunchguy.livejournal.com]

"Cliffnotes, Reyes," Guy replied, making it easier. "Wayne still here?"

Oh, Bats. So tiny.

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[weldedtomyspine]

"Don't you have, like, a student roster or something?" Jaime sighed.

But, might as well answer, right. "I mean, he's here, but why do you even care?"

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[onepunchguy.livejournal.com]

"No reason in particular." BAAAAAAATS. "Just funny that a billionaire is going to school here."

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[weldedtomyspine]

...

"That guy's a billionaire?" He didn't look it!

"...Bruce Wayne? C'mon, kid. You're not from Gotham, but you gotta know that name."

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[weldedtomyspine]

Jaime blinks.

"Wait. It's the same guy?"

How did the guy on the island grow up to be a world-famous playboy?

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[onepunchguy.livejournal.com]

Magic. And some awesome coincidences.

"This is the weird thing for you?"

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[weldedtomyspine]

"Well... yeah?" Was there supposed to be something even weirder?

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[onepunchguy.livejournal.com]

"You have alien tech in your neck," Guy felt the need to point out.

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[weldedtomyspine]

...

"Are you suggesting that Bruce Wayne stops being so gloomy and starts showing up in tabloids because he gets alien tech installed in his neck?"

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[onepunchguy.livejournal.com]

"...no. Just that this is the least weird thing in your life." A beat. "And people change when they get older."

Not that he thought Bats would. But the possibility was there.

"Take me for example, I was a real dick when I was your age."

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

[weldedtomyspine]

Jaime choked on... his drink! Yes! His drink!

Which... he wasn't drinking at the moment.

"Really?" he managed to sputter, sounding kind of disbelieving.

Re: More General Mingling [SS2 2011]

Which would be why Guy slapped him on the back. "Which is why I cleaned up my act and got into a college. I was a teacher before bein' a Green Lantern, you know."
