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

Although the summer had been record-breakingly hot, the weather outside today was actually kind of pleasant. There was a cool breeze blowing across the lawn, making the smells of the buffet wander, and hopefully enticing people to come over to the school and welcome all the new folks.

The blue and gold tables and chairs had been set out as usual, 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!]

"No," Toby shook his head. "Like actual, physical, worlds. Planets." Maybe that would clear things up? No?

"Oh, the spirit world is real." Maybe not physical in the proper sense of the world, but real enough. "What so these planets have to do with it?" They had something to do with the moon, right?

"It's just another name for world, really," Toby said with a shrug. "You were on one. Now you're on a different one. We don't- I've never seen anything quite like, um. Her," he gestured at the dog-bear, "here. For example."

"Are you sure?" Korra asked. Even though it made a disturbing kind of sense, given how different everything was. "I mean I doubt you'd get polar bear dogs this far north anyway."

"Very sure," Toby nodded. "I've heard of polar bears, but not polar bear dogs." Had seen polar bears in zoos, actually, if that counted?

"A polar bear bear? How does that even work?"

"And see, I'd have to ask the same question about a polar bear dog," he admitted.

"Well, she works like that," she said, gesturing at Naga, who started wagging her tail.

That was not a helpful answer, Korra.
