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 picnic post for general mingling. Roommates, fake siblings and teachers are all here. Since it's outside, the picnic is open to all students, teachers, and townies!]

"The story of humanity," Joker agreed. "Well, every species, really. People never change."

"You're used to other species, then?" Hannibal noted. "That should make it easier to adapt to this place. Where are you from?"

Joker sighed. "You're... going to look at me strangely if I say 'Arcturus Station', aren't you? I mean, never having heard of Arcturus Station is like never having heard of America, but... whatever. You've heard of the star, though, right?"

"An orange giant star," Hannibal noted, "the brightest in the northern hemisphere. There are no stations there where I'm from, but your living on one would be far from the strangest thing I've seen here."

"That would be the one," Joker agreed. "Born and raised. It's the center of humankind's galactic presence, and there's nothing else like it anywhere."

"It sounds quite cosmopolitan," Hannibal noted. "I'm afraid the nearest city here is Baltimore; I don't imagine it's too similar. What brings you to Fandom?"

"...Broadening my horizons?" Joker answered. "I was offered this as a special program, and I didn't realize just HOW special it is..."

Hannibal chuckled. "That is certainly one word for it. I will say my own have been considerably broadened since arriving here, so I hope you find it just as enlightening."
