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

[bigdamnprincipal]

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!]

"Oh yeah?" Barry asked looking interested. "What kind of powers?"

"Um... stretchy ones, mostly," Evan offered. "Some limited shapeshifting, that sort of thing."

No, that wasn't nearly an accurate representation of what he could do. It was just the extent of what he was willing to share with a near-stranger. But he held up his hand and shifted it into a club. Something nice and simple, that would get the point across without being too attention-grabbing.

Barry's mouth dropped open. His mind automatically began trying to process the organic manipulation needed to move from a hand-shape another.

He was clearly impressed.

"Dude! That's fucking awesome!"

Clearly.

"There are people who can do way more interesting things than this," Evan replied, shifting his hand back again and giving his fingers a wiggle. "People get all kinds of different powers when they manifest as mutants back home. Not everyone becomes human Silly Putty."

... Glob Herman being the obvious exception.

Well Glob is a special guy. And he can't shape shift. But if you want a human candle...

"Really? All unique powers?" Barry asked as his brain tried to visualize the human and genome and how it could vary like that. "Man that sounds like an interesting place. Why did you come here?"

There really wasn't anything like an obnoxious classmate that you could actually light on fire!

Evan wrinkled his nose a little at that question.

"Um... bullies. At my old school."

Quentin.

Barry frowned.

"Fuckers."

Barry hated bullies.

"Say if you ever need me to re-write his genetic code to make him a kitten, I'll volunteer for the project."

"... You have no idea how tempting that offer actually is," Evan admitted, blinking.

What? Quentin Quire, the future Phoenix? As a kitten? That was pretty much THE BEST idea ever.

"Though that sounds like something Fandom would do, too. Not that I want him spending enough time around here for the island to notice him."

Re: General Mingling [Summer 2014]

[notaweenie.livejournal.com]

"... Wait. This island randomly transforms people into animals?"

How the heck does that even happen?

Re: General Mingling [Summer 2014]

[genesishero]

"Or kids," Evan agreed. "Or adults. And sometimes it turns guys into girls or the other way around. Um. You might want to keep some money set aside in case you need to buy a bra."

Evan was super helpful.

"This place is weird."

"We'll then I should fit in just fine," Barry said in a distracted fashion.

"If I do, anyone can," Evan decided, and then smiled faintly. "Welcome to Fandom, Barry. If you need anything, feel free to ask me, okay?"
