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

[stars_and_money]

It was a new year, and with the new year came the new spring term, and Fandom High was all set to welcome its new students, along with those just returning from holiday trips home. It was a familiar setting for the latter bunch: there was the requisite bonfire, with tables and chairs scattered around it, as well as the buffet table with moldable warm food and drinks.

And of course, name tags and lists of Big and Little Siblings as well as roommates. Yep, the weather was okay for early January, and Fandom was all ready to celebrate the start of a new term.

[OCD 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. Since it's outside, the picnic is open to all students, teachers, and townies!]

"Of course. We're a better class of masochist," Jono smirked. "It hardly gets more elite than this. But if you want to hang out more, that can be arranged. I haven't been doing much but reading, anyhow."

Well, reading, and attempting to train in spite of his injuries. But one of those things was less likely to get him yelled at by various people both on the island and off.

"I have the club and school," Jack said. He was possibly being optimistic about what he could accomplish, yes. "Are you still doing theater things too, or is that on hold?"

"I'm planning on holding auditions for The Consequence of Being Frank either next week or th'week after," Jono replied with a shrug. "We'll see how I'm feeling, and how our first improv class goes, and go from there."

Jono really wasn't certain what had possessed him to run a class at the school and a community class, on top of directing a show in the theatre and doing radio broadcasts, but, if nothing else, keeping busy would keep him from going insane.

Probably.

"I don't stagnate well," he explained.

Jack nodded his respect. "I love Wilde, but I think I'm done acting," he said, not without some wistfulness. He'd enjoyed being in plays in high school; he just didn't see rehearsals fitting into his schedule anymore.

"But I know what you mean. Not to be strange about it, but I should have died -- more than once -- and I haven't. It seems like a waste not to keep myself busy."

"That's precisely it," Jono replied, nodding. "I should be dead a dozen times over by now, for as many different reasons. If I'm still here... I have to make use of that."

Which was why he kept going back to New York and getting into the sort of trouble that had ripped him up in the first place.
