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!]

Only smith caste dwarves liked smithing, Thorin. Honestly.

"But the genuine metals would be useful as coinage," Cassandra pointed out. "You will understand my complaints better after the first dance you find yourself attending, I'm sure."

Thorin looked a little more happy at the mention of dancing. "A feast would be acceptable." A beat. "If proper food was provided."

WHY WAS THAT CHEESE FLAT? AND BREADY UNDERNEATH?

Cassandra raised an eyebrow. "You do not like the spread?"

"I cannot say I can name half of what it is."

Why were those things so orange? And puffy.

"I can promise you that none of it is poisonous," Cassandra said mildly, "But that is all I can say on the matter."

"Aren't you helpful," Thorin replied. But it was teasing in tone.

Cassandra snorted. "I am not a picky eater," she said.

Outside of having the patience of a runaway train, she wasn't a picky much of anything.

"If you wish for suggestions, I would advise you to speak to any of the many students currently inhaling half the buffet."

"I had assumed that was merely good manners for the peoples of men," Thorin shot back.

Oh, sick burn.

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

"For most men, yes," Cassandra said mildly. "But that is hardly specific to humans alone."

Buuuuurn.

He had to shrug in agreement with that. "Where is the ale or wine?"

He only saw oddly bubbled drinks and the usual water.

"They do not serve those officially," Cassandra said. "There is a strange rule here where they insist that those below the age of 21 should not drink such beverages."

Re: Mingling and Such [Summer 2015]

[dwarvenswagger]

"...truly this is a strange land."

"You are telling me," Cassandra said, her voice about as dry as the Hissing Wastes.
