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

[bigdamnprincipal]

Okay, admittedly, having a picnic at the beginning of January wasn't the best idea the school had ever come up with. Thankfully, the weather was sort of agreeable today - it wasn't too chilly, the sun was out, and there were still pretty pockets of unmelted snow on the lawn.

In the middle of the lawn, a bonfire had been set up for warmth and light--mostly the warmth--and the tables and chairs had been set out to mostly be in the sun. There was a long table with a variety of moddable warm foods, and there was the usual table of nametags and lists to help folks find their siblings and roommates. With everything set up, it was time to welcome the new folks!

[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!]

"Ants." Velma said after a second of thought. "Let me get some plastic ants. They can lift up to something like twenty times their own body weight and are comparatively as fast as racehorses."

She paused.

"Or I guess I could just use horses."

She reached into her jacket pocket and pulled out a little green army man. At her touch it woke up, immediately saluting her, then aiming its rifle at Skaar.

"At ease, soldier," Velma said and the soldier snapped into parade rest, the rifle butt tucked against his shoulder. "I need you to run off and see if there are any stores on the island that sell toy ponies. Or ants, I guess. Come back and report to me when you find some or if you run out of stores."

"At once, ma'am!" the soldier snapped a salute and then jumped from Velma's palm, a parachute no bigger than a handkerchief slowing his descent.

Velma didn't pay him any more mind after he jumped, turning back to Skaar. "I think this is doable," she said.
