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

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!]

Against her best attempts to hide her surprise, Emily ended up open mouthed as she stared at the sparks. And this is the best part: she felt slightly scared as she looked at him, too. Maybe Victor looked like a nice guy, but Emily really didn't want to get in the bad side of someone capable of breaking her in half like a twig.

"So you're like, half-half? I don't really understand, but I guess that's probably for the best."

"If you understood, I'd start worrying you were a mad scientist yourself," Victor told her. "But, so -- that's me. What's your deal? How did you end up here?"

"Then let's just leave it at the fact you do some interesting stuff and maybe I'll understand sooner or later. No rush I guess."

And then there came the big question. This one would set precedents. "Oh I- my guardian sent me here? I guess he appreciates the...variety Fandom represents."

"It's definitely a good place to come to get used to all the crazy stuff in the world," Victor told her. "We have different years, different planets, different dimensions ... pretty much anything you can imagine."

"Pretty much anything...that's both a scary and exciting idea. I think I'm going to need some time to process all of this," said Emily as she took a deep breath. "Back home there is just people and, you know, people."

"It's not like plain old people don't get up to some weird stuff too," Victor said, sympathetically. "And, uh, I don't know if this helps, but we do have a lot of completely regular people with no powers or anything here too."

Emily allowed herself a short laugh. "I know, I know. About both things. I don't think I'll worry too much about it, since it doesn't seem like anybody does anyway." But the way things could be if there was some powerplay involved between powered people and just the normal ones would have been interesting, to say the least.

"My main goal for being here, if I can call it that way, is to meet people. Socialize, as they call it. Diversity only makes it better right?"

"And the school's really great about making everybody feel included," Victor told her. "Seriously, I'm sure you'll fit right in."

Emily beamed him a bright smile. "Thank you, Victor. I'll try not to make this whole Sibling thing too much of a hassle to you."
ultron_junior: ([neu] i am listening to you)

"I'm in 401 if you need me, and here's my phone number" Victor said, passing over a slip of paper with his contact information. "I promise it's not a hassle. Otherwise ... I'll see you around."

She folded the paper and stored it right away. This had gone well. "Thanks, again. See you around then."
