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!]

Right? Elsa was admittedly still getting the hang of this 'conversations with strangers' thing, of course.

"Swords made entirely of light, and projectile weapons a hundred times more destructive than an arrow or a crossbow bolt," she offered, frowning a little. "To name a few."

Thorin frowned a little at that. "Interesting."

Damn it, Elsa. This could only end in trying to fight Smaug with a bazooka.

... That would probably work out better for them! So long as they didn't miss.

Oh god, don't miss.

"It's... different." Elsa's tone made it fairly clear that she wasn't certain if it was a good different or a bad different, and she was erring on the side of 'bad, probably.' "I think that actually took more getting used to for me than the strangeness of the island itself. Just... how far everything has come. How different people themselves are."

How many more ways they had to make other people stop moving.

"I'm starting to see that," Thorin replied, looking at the crowd. He skipped over Pinkie out of sheer self defense of his sanity.

That... was a normal reaction to Pinkie, wasn't it?

"I want to tell you that you get used to it, if you end up spending any amount of time here. And getting used to the unexpected is rarely a bad thing, either. But there are some things you never quite do get used to. I'm not sure any sane person would want to be."
