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

[bigdamnprincipal]

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!]

Trolls or gremlins; they sounded like dangerous vermin. "I will watch for them." As to the rest - other aliens? Strange sicknesses? Jalian was realizing with a sinking feeling that there were all sorts of things she hadn't planned for. "I'll be careful. Is there a defense?"

"There are people from other worlds," Vider confirmed, "but they're mostly students or teachers like the rest of us. I don't know of any sicknesses. When we need to defend ourselves--well, there are a lot of adventuresome types here; usually it's not very well organized." Vider sounded disapproving. "Somehow it always works out in the end, though."

Jalian nodded. Organization was good, but so was being flexible. She supposed it depended on who was running things. "Who is in charge here?"

"The principal of the school is Zoe Winchester," Vider said, indicating her to Jalian. "Someone else is in charge of the town, but I've never met him and I don't know anything about him, I'm afraid."

"Him." You could probably hear and see the scorn there. Jalian was aware that males had had positions of authority before the fire; it didn't mean she had to think they deserved it. At least there was a proper female person in charge of teaching.

Vider wasn't drawing any conclusions. She had been Lokiskin; they had their own set of issues regarding males in charge. "Like I said, I don't know anything about him."

Jalian just nodded. She wouldn't worry much about him. If you could live here and not know anything about him, he couldn't be looking things over very well.
