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!]

Re: Meet Your Roommate [Fall 2011]
"More of a case of my father's interest in historical politics. Dad's a big believer in learning from history." Which was one way of refferring to the lectures Lex got on all people whose example he was supposed to follow. Everyone bought the papacy back then, but Rodrigo Borgia, he had style.

"Does that mean you could teach me?" she asked. "I shouldn't like to know my future. But protecting one's interests in Rome -- it's like playing chess with half the board covered up."
And if he had studied the era, he might have a unique perspective on it.
(I must crash. SP?)
Re: Meet Your Roommate [Fall 2011]
"I can try." No matter how much Lex didn't want to be like his father, Lionel's lessons tended to stick. "But so far I've barely managed to survive high school. I do know how to play chess though."
[Sure!]
