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!]

//Have a conversation about what's tearing me apart without me screaming internally and pawing at the place where my head ought to be? That hardly seems my style,// Jono replied, again, only half serious. //Still... it would be good to have somebody to talk to who understands that derailing a conversation to yell at me for my injuries isn't going to get us anywhere near what's actually bothering me...//

"I will make an arrangement with you - if you are ever seriously in pain or harmed, you will let me know. In exchange, I will assume that if you do not say so, you are not, and I will do my best not to fuss. Agreed?"

At all. Ever. It mostly just made him want to get more distance. He'd make an awesome hermit just to avoid the attention if anybody ever, say, lopped off one of his arms or something.
Re: Meet Your Teachers [Summer 2014]
He shook Jono's hand on the agreement. "And I prefer not to fuss. I would rather fix things, or let them go." Or kill them, of course. That went without saying, right?
Re: Meet Your Teachers [Summer 2014]
//Well then... Maybe we can sit and actually chat one of these days. I'll admit, I am curious to see what you have to say about some of the same things I've been holding back from other people over the years.//
Re: Meet Your Teachers [Summer 2014]
"I hope we will continue to chat quite a bit," he answered. "Some of it more focused than other times." He smiled. "For today, shall we discuss what food to have in class this week?"

... He was going to insist on pizza at least once, though.
Re: Meet Your Teachers [Summer 2014]
It would be gourmet and nearly unrecognizable as pizza.
Re: Meet Your Teachers [Summer 2014]
Jono would take it.
//Looking forward to it,// he decided, clearly amused. //I mean, to see what else it is I've been missing out on for so long.//

"Along with your chips and beer." Hannibal shook his head, fighting a smile. "I am teaching with a heathen."
He'd probably bring beer, too. But it would be good beer!
