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!]

Ulrik of House Oldenburg, Prince of Denmark, was not born yesterday, to use another American saying.

"Sadly, Grace, I am without any of your local currency, so I'll have to decline."

Kenzi grinned. Good one, although it did sound like he wasn't around here, so that might be legit. "Want to promise to buy a watch when you change your money? Want a guide to place where you can do that? For a small fee?"

It was totally legit, considering it was printed nearly four hundred years and a universe to the left ago. "How small a fee are we talking, here?"

"Saaay-- four percent?" She would be happy with two percent; figure the guy had a couple hundred bucks, maybe a bit more, and she'd wind up with enough for lunch and maybe a bit over. "Just to make sure you don't get short-changed, can set up a bank account and ATM card easy, maybe find you a cell phone?"

"I don't know, I have a school-assigned sibling who I'm fairly sure is supposed to help me with things like that for free," Ulrik pointed out.

Kenzi pouted, then grinned again. "For a diet Coke?"

Ulrik's eyes widened. Coke was one of those things he'd heard of, but had been long gone by the time he had the chance to meet any Americans.

"Show me where I can obtain some, and I will gladly share with you."

"Yes!" Kenzi punched the air, and hopped off her perch. "I think we should hit Cafe Luke's, they've got the best food and drinks." And it was more fun when someone else paid! ... she'd even tell him her real name then.
