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

Throughout the lawn, tables and chairs had been set up and scattered, some out in the bright, sunny center of everything, and some in the darker, more remote areas.

Eat up, folks! Don't let that food go to waste!

[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!]

"Excellent," Edward said, offering her a cheeky grin. "And here I'd feared I'd have to get on my knees and beg for your time."

Not that he would've minded. Much. As long as he could've made a production out of it.

"You're a veteran then, of sorts."

"Aww, don't make me sad." She liked boys begging her for things, what could she say? "But yes, I've been here for the better part of a year. And before that, my brothers were here, so I knew what I was getting into."

"Always a good thing," Edward said, though he made note of the were here - always good to know one was not at risk of getting manhandled by angry brothers trying to save their sister's honor or some such rot. "But am I making you sad? I'll have to come up with a way to brighten your spirits quick, then."

Ahaha. The person he was most at risk of getting manhandled by was sitting right next to him.

Making a really theatrical gesture of sorrow by casting her eyes skyward and bringing the back of her hand to touch her forehead. "Yes, my sadness is deep."

Edward looked terribly amused. "Shall I get the lady something for her troubles, then?"

Isabelle, still keeping up her tragic pose, closed her eyes – then snuck one open for a glance at him.

"You could fetch me some cake."

"All right," Edward said, clapping his hands before hopping to his feet. "The lady wants some cake." He made an exaggerated bow. "I'll be back in a moment," he said, then turned towards the food.

And Isabelle was totally leering as he did.

What? Checking people out was the only reason she had for even being here!

That just meant that what Edward was doing was working!

Not that he was surprised by that.

He arrived with a piece of cake on a plate. "Dry your eyes," he said.

"Okay."

See, she was easy. She reached out for the plate.

"I was always told I shouldn't take food from strangers ––" Actually, she'd been told not to take food from fair folk, and he wasn't one of them, but that was beside the point. "–– so now would be a great time to introduce yourself."

Edward sank back into his previous seat and grinned. "Edward Kenway," he offered. "And yourself?"

"Isabelle Lightwood," she replied with an easy smile of her own. "A pleasure to make your acquaintance, Mr. Kenway."

"Is this where we argue about whose pleasure it is the most?" Edward asked.

"No, because I win every argument I get into," Isabelle quipped. "Also... Yours, clearly."

Girl had a healthy ego on her.

"Oh, now I'd love to hear your argument for that," Edward said, grin on his face making it clear he was charmed already.

She had that effect on people. Who were willing to be charmed by smiley cockiness.

"Oh, I don't know," she teased, getting started on the cake. "I think all my excellent qualities are hard to put into words."

"We'll have to meet up some time again," Edward suggested. "Once you've had time to think of some."

"I'm sure that can be arranged." See above re: easy. "I have a lot of free time to waste around here."
