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

The last picnic for new arrivals had involved a bonfire, but there was no need for artificial warmth today. The weather outside was sunny, and just breezy enough that no one would roast, hopefully. There were tables and chairs arranged around the lawn, along with a long table of food, drinks, and desserts for anyone who stopped by.

There were stacks of nametags for people to label themselves with, and lists to help folks find their siblings and roommates. With everything in order, it was time to welcome some new people!

[OCD is 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!]

Face was definitely getting that impression. "I should probably get around to doing my job first, though," he said. "Is there anything you'd like to know about the school or the island?"

Oh, good point!

Ringo grinned a bit sheepishly, and knelt to put her ATs back in the backpack. "Oh, yes. I suppose that might help."

"Um... the most important thing is, I guess, whether I can ride around the island without getting in trouble?"

Face thought about it. "We can go by the Trooper office to double check if you want, but I don't see why not," he said. "The only issues I can think of are the possibility of running into people, which I assume you already know how to avoid, and if there's enough space to ride in."

On account of all the stairs.
soniaroadsqueen: (seriously)

"Double-checking probably couldn't hurt," Ringo agreed. "And I suppose I haven't really had time to look through the town in detail, but from what little I saw it should be amazing to ride."

Stairs were amazing. They provided great excuses to wall-ride.

Face could definitely see how that worked, but he was at least theoretically supposed to ensure no one's neck got broken. "You should be all good then."

"Yay!" Yeah. She actually said "yay". And did it while jumping up and down excitedly.

Then she realized what she was doing, and grounded herself, staring sheepishly at her feet.

"Er. Sorry about that."

Like Face was ever going to tell someone to calm down (if it wasn't a life or death situation, and sometimes not even then).

"It's no problem," he said. "Pretty sure welcome picnics are custom made for excitement."

Ringo relaxed again, grinning back at him. "Well, I guess I was kind of half-worried that it would be hard to find a place to ride." So a "it's probably okay" was a huge relief.
