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

Some extra tables had been set up in the shade of the trees on the lawn, away from the buffet in spots where it might be less crowded and much quieter. Well, aside from the mariachi band, but at least their music was entertaining? They might even take requests!

[OCD is up, have at it! This is the FIRST post for general mingling. Please use this post first, if your browser can handle the comment load. Roommates, fake siblings and teachers are all here and there's more room for mingling here. Since it's outside, the picnic is open to all students, teachers, and townies!]

"Whoa," Frank said, blinking up at Ikol. "What kind of bird is that?" Wait, better question. "They let you have birds here?"

"He is a magpie," Loki replied, shrugging to cause Ikol to flutter up for a moment before resettling.

"Nice," Frank said approvingly. "He's really neat." He peered at Ikol from a couple different angles, because someone was maybe a little bit of a bird geek, then gave a sheepish grin and said, "I'm Frank, by the way. Sorry, I -- like birds."

"Loki," he replied, just watching the boy. Because he didn't do things like shake hands. "His name is Ikol."

Frank grinned. "I see what you did there," he said. "Nice." No, Frank, you totally didn't, but good try.

"Have you, uh, been here long?"

"I have been attending this school since the winter." A beat. "Which I suppose would put me in a position of superiority over you."

SUCH CHEER.

Uh?

"That it would," Frank agreed easily enough. "This isn't where the hazing starts, is it? Because I'm sure we could work out a really nice bribe."

He was teasing. Sorry, Loki. You didn't really look that threatening, unfortunately.

"What sort of bribe?" GIVE HIM THINGS, PUNY MORTAL.

Oh, sure, Loki, turn the teasing into reality. Mean.

"...on a scale of one to ten, how hypothetical is this?"

"One being...?"

"The least hypothetical," Frank clarified easily. Because it really was important to be clear on this.

Loki gave that all due consideration. "One."

"Then I take back the thing about the bribe," Frank decided.

"And I will not assist you in your adjustment."

Stubborn, stubborn god.

Some might say puny god.

Frank perked up. "What kind of assistance would we be talking about here?"

"You won't ever know now," Loki replied with a haughty sniff.

Frank considered this.

"How much assistance does... this plate of food get me?"

It contained two enchiladas. So...

"A friendly smile." His help didn't come cheap!

Frank was starting to suspect he was not going to make a ton of headway here, but he also wasn't terribly fond of the enchiladas. So.

"I'll take it," he said, extending the plate along with a charming smile of his own.

"Deal!" Loki snatched the plate as he smiled back, letting Ikol jump down his arm to peck at one of them.
