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

[bigdamnprincipal]

There were tables and chairs set up all around the lawn. Some were in the sun, where folks could soak up that precious vitamin D, and some were in the shade where folks could stay cool.

All of the tables had at least a little glitter on them though. It was a welcoming gesture to get glitter someplace you didn't know glitter could go!

[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!]

"The squirrels gave me a note," Face replied innocently. "It's tradition."

The shirtlessness, yes, the sparkles, not so much.

"To wander about a crowded picnic, naked from the waist up?" Cassandra asked. Dryly.

Incredulously.

Still not looking at him.

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[gavegoodface]

"That's what it says," Face said, offering her the note which read:

NO SHIRTZ 4 BOY ON NOOBIE DAY. MUST ALSO HAS SPARKLYZ!

"They are squirrels," Cassandra felt the need to point out, after she'd snagged the note from his hands so she didn't have to look at him. "They are filthy and crude and not great sources of advice. I would think you would know this."

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[gavegoodface]

"They also gossip about everyone on the island, so I figure I'll stay on their good side," Face pointed out.

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[seeks_truth]

"Ugh," Cassandra huffed.

She passed the note back to him and immediately got an eyeful of shirtless Face again. Sigh.

Could she go any redder? Apparently so!

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[gavegoodface]

"Hot out?" Face asked, far too innocently.

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[seeks_truth]

"You are not funny," Cassandra muttered. "You know what you are doing."

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[gavegoodface]

"I'm providing a warm welcome to the new kids."

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[seeks_truth]

"You could do so with your shirt on," Cassandra pressed.

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[gavegoodface]

"But I'd get glitter all over it," Face said.

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[seeks_truth]

"Why are you wearing the glitter to begin with?" Cassandra demanded.

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[gavegoodface]

"Because the squirrels said to." And it made him feel pretty.

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[seeks_truth]

Cassandra made a noise that wasn't quite disgusted. It sounded a lot like three vastly different kinds of noises thrown together into a general incoherent sound that fully communicated her feelings on the topic.

Stop being pretty, Face.

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[gavegoodface]

Face could no more stop being pretty than Cassandra could stop being a scary, scary tank.

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[seeks_truth]

"You have no shame," she added, a moment later.

Everyone in the conversation was already aware of that.

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[gavegoodface]

Why else do you think the squirrels chose him to revive shirtless newbie day?

"You noticed?"

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[seeks_truth]

"It would be very hard not to notice at the moment," Cassandra said dryly.

At least she was able to look him in the face now. That was progress.

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[gavegoodface]

"Always good to have you notice me." Because she was completely right about him being shameless.

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[seeks_truth]

Apparently she could flush more! "You are an impossible flirt, as well," she said.

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[gavegoodface]

Face grinned. "I play to my strengths."

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[seeks_truth]

"Stop humoring me," Cassandra ordered him.

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[gavegoodface]

Face's expression turned serious. For a fraction of a second at least. "Okay, I promise I will wear a shirt tomorrow, and there will be no glitter. I swear."

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[seeks_truth]

"Good."

It was good. Yes. Very good. Good idea. Maybe she could stop thinking about climbing him like a tree, then.

"...Though I doubt you will be able to get rid of the glitter in so short a time," she added. "It is worse than sand."

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[gavegoodface]

"It's not as coarse, so it's got that going for it."

Notice how Face didn't incorporate sand comparisons in his flirting, because who did that?
