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

Some parts of the East Coast might have been freaking out about a hurricane, but there was no such madness going on in Fandom. Sure, it was a little hot out, with the sun shining and not much breeze happening, but all the milk and toilet paper on the island was safe, and that was important, right? Besides, once the new folks started learning about their new home, there'd be more than enough freaking out to go around.

The usual main attraction had been set up first: a large buffet of food and drinks had been laid out next to all the information the new arrivals would need, and then the blue and gold tables and chairs had been arranged across the rest of the lawn. Everything was just about done when the shuttle arrived, and it was time for a picnic once again.

[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. Since it's outside, the picnic is open to all students, teachers, and townies!]

"Yeah, well crashes aren't all that fun so I'll agree with you there," Jack said trying to hide his amusement at his little sib and her name tag issues. "Did anyone try to break your brain before you got to the island?"

"Break my brain?" asked Rosella, looking up distractedly from her efforts to extract the sticker. "How do you mean?"

Off! Off, damn nametag!

"Oh... You know. This island is a bit... Unique. And very weird. "

"Well, yes," Rosella smiled a little. "Of course. That's why I was so interested in coming here. But do you mean to suggest that I should be wary of the island coming at me and my head with a mallet or say, the broad end of a shovel? I quite assure you, Jack, if it should, I hope it realizes that I fully intend to come right back at it with a shovel of my own."

She liked shovels, okay? They were incredibly useful.

Jack laughed at that. "Okay, clearly you'll fit in well here," he said, "though I was mostly speaking figuratively. This island can do some strange things, so if someone tells you something weird about the place don't immediately dismiss it because it might be true. Unless it's the guy in the red pajamas. Feel free to ignore him."

The nametag was quite forgotten now as the conversation took a pleasing turn and Rosella wore the small smirk that she suspected she'd have any time anyone tried to surprise her with information about the island. "Guy in the red pajamas?" she asked. "I don't suppose you mean a teacher by the name of Deadpool, do you?"

And that would be Jack's eyebrows going up a notch before a grin crossed his face. "Well, yeah. That would be him. Should I be asking you about this place? Because I'm thinking you know more than you let on."
