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

Well.

It was raining popsicles and suntan lotion today. Because Fandom liked to make the newbies cry sometimes. Yes, the island had a sense of humor about these things.

We've all learned to accept that and move on with our lives. Well, all of us except for Britta. But she's the worst.

[Please wait for 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.]

"It's not, it's just technology," Juliet said, with a tiny, triumphant smile as she let Stannis have his phone back. She didn't get to be smarter than anybody very often. "I, um ... could probably find a book about how they work, if you really want to know."

"Yes," said Stannis, his attention almost entirely on the phone as he tried to replicate Juliet's actions with it, adding a distracted, "please. That would be wise."

And then he found her name on the phone, pushed the button she had indicated, and waited to see what would happen.

There was a quiet moment, then Juliet's red quilted handbag began to make what probably sounded like a dreadful tinny clamor.

I'm on the floor, floor
I love to dance
So give me more more, till I can't stand
Get on the floor, floor
Like it's your last chance
If you want more, more
Then here I am...


Juliet plucked her phone out triumphantly, hit the Answer Call button. "Hi Stannis," she said into the phone. "How are you?"

And then she had to giggle.

"I thought--" Stannis started to talk to Juliet and then remembered the whole point was to test out the phone, so he cleared his throat, mimicked her position with her own, and spoke into that, feeling like quite the fool as he did so.

"I thought you said it would ring."

"It did," Juliet said, before she figured out what Stannis meant. "Oh, the song? That's my ringtone. You can change them so you can tell which phone is yours and express your personality and stuff."

She squinted over toward him. "I think i just left yours as the default. Want me to call you so you can hear what it sounds like?"
