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

Whoever worked their magic to ensure that the welcome picnics had nice weather had cut their mojo very close this time around. The weather was lovely today - sunny and hot enough to make it clear that summer in Fandom had finally begun - but the overnight thunderstorms had left puddles all over the lawn that hadn't quite dried up yet.

Still, the tables and chairs had managed to be scattered around, along with the buffet table of moddable food and drinks, and the information table with name tags, the Big and Little Sibling list, and the list of new roommates. The only thing missing was people to enjoy the festivities!

[OCD is up! This is part one of the picnic, specifically for meeting siblings, roommates, and teachers. The rest of the picnic is happening 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!]

Toby had arrived in a sweatshirt and jeans a couple sizes too big, so. Yeah. He knew how that went, having nothing but the clothes on your back, and not being able to be picky about those either. "We could- there's a clothing place in town. If you wanna get something," he doesn't say cleaner, "a little more modern."

"I don't have any gold," Snow said reluctantly. "Everything I own has been taken from me." She'd taken all her fancy dresses and jewels for granted until she'd been thrown in the tower.

Okay, the 'gold' thing makes him blink for a bit, but... he's been in Fandom long enough to know there's all sorts of weird universes out there. "It's cool," he says with a shrug and an easy smile. "I was in pretty much the same boat when I got here, too. People helped me out. I'm just- paying it forward."

Snow gave him a shy smile back. "Thank you," she said. "Everyone I've talked to so far has been so kind."

"It can take a bit of getting used to," Toby admitted. "I mean, when I came here, I was pretty much- I'd come from somewhere where it was basically everyone looked out for themselves, you know?"

"And it is different here?" Snow said, feeling a surge of hope in her heart. Even when she'd escaped, seeing the land and people so devastated had crushed her. "People help one another?"
