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

When the planning for the new semester had started, no one had really noticed that the welcome picnic would coincide with Cinco de Mayo. When the food arrived and all of it, including the desserts, had somehow ended up as a variety of Mexican food, well, it was a little too late to change anything.

Hopefully, the wandering mariachi band that had shown up wouldn't throw anyone either. It was a festive day of new arrivals, after all.

The blue and gold tables and chairs had been set out, along with nametags and the lists of Big and Little Siblings, and rooms and roommates for the new students. Assuming the shuttle arrived with all of the students and teachers in one piece, everything was set for the picnic to begin!

[OCD is up, have at it! 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!]

"Mullets." Darcy informed her. "There were mullets." She took a deep breath and tried to summarize the Internet. "Tge Internetvis like, well everything. All the information, all the people, all the cats you could ever want. We need to get you on a computer first. Those shrunk." She was thinking of 50s style computers.

"Oh, a planetary communications network!" 1987 by way of outer space. "Sweet; Earth's got one of those now?"

Though... "And you can send cats on it? How's that work? One of those portal things?"

"Not actual cats. Pictures of cats with captions on them!" Darcy explained. "It's funny, really. And it's so much more than communications, but yeah, that's kind of the gist. And phones are really small and don't need cords now."

Ace damped down a grin and pretended to have trouble with her pronunciation. "Ph-ooones? What's that, then?"
