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

There was the bonfire for everyone who thought Maryland in January was a little too cool for their taste, as well as the moddable warm food and drinks, and chairs and tables in the school colors of blue and gold. Some tables were also set a little further away from the crowds.

Because there were always people who preferred the fringes.

[OCD up! 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!]

Jace didn't know why he kept showing up to these picnic things since they didn't really do much for him. He guessed the free food was what kept him coming since he would do just about anything to not cook for himself.

He kept an eye out for anyone interesting while he ate but he doubted he'd be successful in finding anybody.

"No new siblings," Natalie reported like she had once or twice before, as she wandered over with a cup of hot chocolate in hand. "No roommate, either."

"Looks like you only have me to deal with this semester then," Jace said. "Lucky you."
whenshewasnice: ([neu] Sighworthy.)

"I socialize with other people, you know." Barely. "Did they saddle you with anyone?"

"Oh god no," Jace said, shaking his head. "Could you imagine me having to guide some innocent young student?"
whenshewasnice: (Mmmmaybe no.)

"Oh, I can," Natalie nodded. "But it ends with them possibly crying, or requesting a new sibling."

Jace smiled. "That would almost be worth having to deal with a little sibling."
whenshewasnice: (Play it like that.)

Natalie raised an eyebrow at him. "I should've made you cry."

No, she had no idea how anyone would go about making that happen.

"Ha! You couldn't pull it off," Jace said. "I don't cry."

"I think I could, with time. But I'm not surprised you'd say that. You have the 'I don't cry' type written all over you."

She would've bet it had to do with whatever the tragic damaging thing in his past was.

"Are you suggesting I've become a cliche?" Jace asked teasingly.
whenshewasnice: (Your lips are moving.)

"I'm suggesting you were born to be a cliche." And she meant that (thanks, CC) despite the flicker of amusement on her face. "Thankfully, you're more than that."

"That's awfully sweet of you," he said. "I shall cherish that compliment in my heart forever."

No seriously. He probably would.

"Of course, little brother," she replied, and even reached out to pat him on the shoulder. That was part of being as broken up as she was right now, actually. "I'm sure it has plenty of room to bounce around in there."

"Oh, a quip worthy of Alec's approval," Jace said. "Too bad he's not around to hear it."
whenshewasnice: (Think you're in control.)

"Unfavourable comparisons to Alec. My favourite." She gave his shoulder a jab with a fingertip since it was there and all. "Thought you'd be pleased I blanced out my compliment with a slight barb."

"It was a compliment!" Jace insisted. "Alec approving of something is very rare, you should be proud."
whenshewasnice: (How very stupid.)

"I think I have better things to be proud of than Alec's supposed approval," Natalie replied, withdrawing her hand. "Thanks anyway. I won't cherish this in my heart, though."
