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

There were tables and chairs set up all around the lawn. Some were in the sun, where folks could work on their tan while they ate, and some were in the shade where folks could stay cool and non-crispy.

All of the tables had some blue and gold glitter scattered across them, because there was always enough to go around. This school certainly was blesesed in all the right ways.

[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!]

"Yeah, I just got here," Dante said, looking up, a brief moment of wariness darting past his eyes for all of a split-second before giving away. "Go me."

That moment of wariness made Ringo try to look eve more harmless than normal. Which was pretty harmless, to be honest, at least under normal circumstances.

"You don't sound very excited," Ringo said, pointing out the obvious. "I'm going to guess that you weren't planning on being here?"

"Fell asleep on a bench, woke up enrolled in a school," Dante said. "What are you gonna do? Bureaucracy."

Ringo laughed. "Well, maybe it'll be a good thing." She shrugged. "This school is pretty weird, but in a cool way, you know?"

"I've heard about fifty takes on that one already," Dante said.

Several of them terrifying, though probably not in the way most people around here would think of them as being terrifying. "What's yours?"

"Mostly that the classes are a lot of fun. I've been sky-diving, and wind-surfing, and all sorts of awesome stuff." She shrugged. "Way more interesting than learning geometry."

"You know, I think you're about the second person today to bring up the lack of geometry," Dante said. "You people must've been going to some boring schools before this."

Said the guy who'd really had little education to speak of in general and wouldn't even be able to tell you what area of math geometry was supposed to be.

"Well," Ringo shrugged, "aren't most schools pretty boring? I didn't think that places that taught these sorts of classes even existed outside of TV or whatever."

Dante shrugged. "Schools have got to be boring, or I'd remember more of it," he said. "Wind-surfing, huh?"

"Wind-surfing," she confirmed with a grin. "It's pretty sweet, but I think sky-diving is more fun." A shrug. "But they're both great."

She cocked her head to one side. "You ever do anything exciting like that?"

"You could say that," Dante said. After a long, long beat.

"Never been wind-surfing or sky-diving, though."

"Oh yeah?" Ringo perked up, suddenly seeming quite a bit more interested. "Like what?"

It was possible that someone was always on the lookout for something new and exciting to try out.

Considering how his past few conversations on the topic had gone, Dante shrugged. "Fighting demons."

"Fighting demons?" Ringo frowned. "That's not some weird name for a crazy sport, right?" Just checking!

"Nah," Dante said, "Not really."

He wasn't going to elaborate from there, though, because she sounded like she was about to call him crazy or something, which made him think this was a limb he'd have been better off not going on.

"Huh." She seemed to be considering that. "I suppose that probably is exciting, though it doesn't exactly sound fun."
