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

There were chairs and tables set up all across the lawn; some were by the bonfire, for the people who wanted to be warm and central to everything else at the picnic, and some were set farther away from the action, for the people who wanted more peace and quiet.

There was no escaping the glitter though. Sorry, but not really.

[OCD is 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!]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

"He does tend to draw attention, doesn't he," Raven noted. "Did you sign up for a new little sibling? Mine immediately started hitting on me."

"Yes! Mine seems okay." Cecil shrugged. Then again, pretty much everyone did. "Who's yours? Is he cute?"

"He is," Raven confirmed. "And he knows it. You should see his suit!"

"He wore a suit?" Cecil craned his head around looking for who this was. "Are you sure he's not a teacher or an agent of a vague-yet-menacing government agency in disguise?"

"Well, no, I just met him, so all I'm really sure of is that he flirted with me and was wearing a suit. But he didn't seem vague-yet-meancing."

"Well, if he tries to give you trouble, you can come and hide in my room," Cecil decided. Yes, another person might offer to beat him up for her, but this was Cecil. And it was Raven - she could probably do a much better job of that than he could, if she wanted to.

If nothing else, she could just turn into an elephant and stomp on him.

"I'll keep that in mind," Raven said. "I'm sure it'll be fine, though. Vague-yet-menacing government agencies seem to have left Fandom mostly alone."

"So far," Cecil agreed, though he had his doubts.

He shrugged it off, though. "How was your break? Did you go home for it?"

"Yup. Another Christmas at home with the Xaviers. And their fifty closest business associates who could get them more money." Raven shrugged. "Charles and I always hide off to the side and make snide comments about people."

"That sounds like fun." Cecil grinned at her. "How's your brother doing?"

"Good! He's just about all set to move to England, already. So maybe next time I can go visit him there and we can skip the relatives and business associates entirely." Raven tilted her head. "How about you? Did you get to go back and see Carlos at all?"

"I did!" Cecil sighed happily, then pouted. "It wasn't even Christmas there, though. But!" He grinned. "I'm almost two years ahead of them now!"

"Oh good! That means you're definitely catching back up, right? Age-wise."

"Eventually! I'll be sixteen later this month, unless the day gets cancelled for some reason."

Whichever day it was.

". . . How would a day get canceled? And wouldn't you still be sixteen the day after that, anyway? You'd still have gone around the sun that many times, right?"

"I'm really not sure if it works like that," Cecil said doubtfully.

Because Night Vale.

"But we haven't had any cancelled days at all here yet, so I'm sure it'll be fine!"

". . . Does your universe actually have a logic system?" Raven asked.

No. No, it really didn't.

"Maybe?" Cecil shrugged. "I never took logic."

"What did you study in Night Vale?"

"Oh, um...radio, of course. And Evocation, English, Modified Sumerian, Home Ec..." He shrugged. "All sorts of things!"

"What's modified Sumerian?"

"A language." Cecil gave her a puzzled look. "Don't they have that where you come from?"

"I've heard of Sumerian. Sort of." It popped up in adventure stories sometimes. "It's a really old language no one talks any more."

"Really? Nobody?" Cecil blinked. "What about Spanish, do they still speak that?"

". . . Yes. Quite a lot of people do."
