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

There were plenty of tables and chairs scattered around the lawn for anyone who wanted to sit down once they'd had their fill of the buffet, or to recover from starting to find out what this place was all about. No one would judge the need to take a mental breather.

Some of the tables were out in the open, for those who weren't allergic to the sun, and some of the tables were in the shade, or far from the rest of the crowd for those who needed a little more space to process. Wherever people decided to rest, there was space enough for everyone.

[OOC: This is part two of the picnic, separated in an effort to save our browsers for as long as possible. Part one, to run into siblings, roommates and teachers, is over here, though teachers are also welcome in this post, of course. Because the picnic is outside, it is open to all students, teachers and townies.]

"I have no issue with idealism."

If Liara had had the words for it, she would have even labeled Karolina's... cute.

"But there is a level of caution and practicality to consider."

"Yeah, and this is a situation where looking on the less-than-bright side would've paid off," Gert said. "But -- if things come to a head, she's got her powers, and there's the Portalocity network, you know? She's not stupid."

"Of course not!"

And back to offended slash embarrassed.

"I was not trying to imply that!"

"No, I was-- actually, I was mostly trying to convince myself," Gert backtracked hastily. "Sorry. I start sounding like somebody's grandmother when I'm worried, apparently."

"...Whose grandmother?"

This was turning out to be a fine conversation.

"Generic someone." And here Gert had thought she'd been communicating pretty well, all things considered. "Never mind. The point is I know you don't think she's stupid."

"She is not," Liara confirmed. "However, I would be willing to concede 'impulsive."

So maybe she was a bit annoyed.

"Yeah, well, who isn't?" No one she knew, that was for sure. "'Empathetic to a fault' might be another."
