Fandom High Graduation Ceremony, Class of 2015, Early Saturday Evening [Part 2]

As the last new graduate sat down with their diploma, a roaring noise could be heard in the distance. The noise quickly got louder, and then it wasn't so distant at all as dragons began to swarm around the lawn.

Some of the dragons were real, with scales and tails and fire in their breath. Following in their wake were smaller, squishier dragons, in a variety of tasty jello flavors.

As the dragons descended upon the graduates, the Fandom graduation protocols kicked in, and an invisible barrier came down to separate the graduates from the rest of the audience.

Good luck, graduates. Hopefully there were some brave knight types among you!

She laughed.

"I didn't hate everything about it," Karina admitted. She didn't hate Sparkle at all, or Minako or Kathy or Elsa, though she knew Sparkle the best. She didn't hate Atton, either, though she knew him the least.

"But, hey, I'll take that in the spirit it was intended," she continued, and yeah, she was just going to kiss him on the cheek now, because she was terrible and could only pretend he was a teacher for so long. And because this was making her a little sentimental. Shh, don't tell. "Don't die, okay? And if the island gets too awful, hop to a better world. I'm not going to be around to bitch at you for terrible life decisions."

Because she already could guess that he'd make terrible life decisions.

... Did she just kiss him on the cheek? Really? Was he respectable enough for that now? Or did he genuinely drag up that level of (platonic) affection?

Damn it.

He scratched the back of his neck with more nervous energy than he was inclined to admit, as that kind of threw him off his calm-and-collected streak just now.

"I'll be fine," he said, shoving what remained of calm-and-casual into his tone instead. "But, uh, thanks."

He bit back an and stuff.

Karina ruthlessly killed any giggles that threatened to escape her at that reaction.

But it was priceless.

"You're welcome," she said. "I'd say I'd see you around, but I don't think I will. Take care."

Look, he just wasn't used to displays of affection, okay? On any level.

"Yeah, yeah, you take care, too," Atton said. "Go. Get out of here already. Live long and not weirdly."

"I'm going, I'm going!" she said, smiling again, as she turned to leave.
