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!]

Jack glanced up at the magpie as he came to perch on the staff, gave him a quick smile, and then did as he was told, giving that S a light tap.

It was fortunate that touchscreens were capacitive, not heat-sensitive. So much of the magic of discovering the internet would have been lost in that moment, otherwise.

"That," he shared as the browser loaded, "was way easier than I thought it would be."

"Is it not? The peoples of Midgard are most ingenious about such things."

"I might have to get one of these," Jack mused, poking at random links as different pages loaded. "I kind of feel like I've spent a lot of time missing out since these things were invented, now."

Huh. What was a '4Chan?'
abitlowkey: (...seriously?)

GO THERE, JACK. IT'LL BE FUN.

"You can also use it as a phone." A beat. "If you wanted to."

Who used a cellphone as a phone these days?

Nobody, that's who.

"It isn't really like I'd have anybody to call," Jack pointed out, shrugging and tapping the link. And then tapping another link at random.

And then kind of staring blankly at the screen for a moment.

"Suddenly, the internet makes a whole lot more sense."

Tentacles. Yep.

Loki followed his gaze for a moment before pulling a face. "Yes, you become desensitized to such things at a rapid pace. At least it is not a gif."

Scroll down for that one.

"A wha-whoa."

Yep. There it was.

"I feel as though I should be covering your eyes," Loki remarked, not actually doing that. Because, well, Loki.

"I'm not entirely certain my eyes and I know just what it is we're seeing," Jack noted, not actually looking away, either. Because... Jack. If there was something he wasn't supposed to be doing, and it was right there in front of him...
