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!]

Toby couldn't say what it was, precisely, that drew his attention to Po. But there he was, flicking his gaze between that selection of food and the boy's face. "Trying a bit of everything?" he asked with a smile.

"There's so much I've never seen before," Po sighed, smiling over at the other boy. "Who knows when I might see such an opportunity again?"

"A very good point," Toby had to admit. "I can relate, anyway. I basically did the same thing my first day."

"Have you been here long, then?" Po asked. "It's my first day. I wasn't sure it showed so very much."

"About a year and a half," Toby confirmed. "It's a small school, though. Even if you don't know everyone, you get to know faces, you know?"

"I can imagine it's easy," Po said, glancing around. "The faces themselves are somewhat distinctive, are they not?"

That was a tactful way of saying "People here look weird."

"That's a good way of putting it," Toby had to admit with a laugh. "The clothing probably doesn't help either." Because judging from the way Po was dressed, he was either from a very different time or a very different world.
