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

With all the rain that had blown through earlier in the week, the school administration had been worried that welcome picnic day would be wet and gloomy. Thankfully, it was sunny, warm, and beautiful outside, and everything had been set up just in time for the shuttle of new folks to arrive. There was a buffet table of food and drinks waiting, along with the list of Big and Little Siblings, the list of roommates, and more name tags than they'd probably need for three picnics.

Also, there wasn't a single flower out on the lawn after last weekend. Just saying.

With everything in place, it looked like it was time for the first summer term to begin!


[OCD up! This is part one of the picnic, specifically for meeting siblings, roommates, and teachers. The rest of the picnic is happening here. Since it's outside, the picnic is open to all students, teachers, and townies!]

"Okay, rollin' it back a bit: No oppressive anything, here. You can wear something different, if you'd like, and nobody's going to arrest you for saying or thinking or being something they don't like. Classes are fun, and come with room and board. We good, so far?"

"Yeah," Four decided after a moment. "But I'm going to stick to wearing black."

"Well, yeah, no, that's your prerogative," Joker answered. "I mean, it goes well with the whole 'badass' vibe you've got going on. Not very original, of course, but nothing wrong with it. So.... okay, so moving forward... You're not from a place where technology was destroyed or made illegal or anything like that, right? Not gonna freak out at television, computers, telephones...?"

Four shook his head. "We have them, just not all the time--electricity is rationed too. I grew up eating in the dark."

And not just because his father was a huge dick.

"Well, that sucks," Joker told him. "So, no late-night movie marathons in your home? Then that's another fun thing about this place -- the power's always on. And free."

"Sounds amazing," Four admitted. "Back home we go drinking and get tattoos."

"Well, you do have that option," Joker told him. "I mean, I never thought of getting tattoos as entertainment, but I guess it's better than poking yourself repeatedly with a sharp needle."

"That's another Dauntless thing," Four agreed. "Piercings. Not for me."
