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

[bigdamnprincipal]

Picnic-ing in January - still not the best idea ever! But there were tables and chairs set up in the sun, and a nice bonfire going, and plenty of warm food for everyone to encourage socializing for as long as possible.

[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!]

"Were you being a lad?" Jalian asked. It seemed the next logical question.

"No." Raven sighed. "Charles would have disapproved."

And made grumpy faces and sent her scolding telepathic messages all night.

Jalian's expression said what she thought of Charles. She probably shouldn't actually say anything.

"Your brother sounds very annoying."

Jalian was bad at "should". And tact.

Well, Charles was annoying. And very, very self-righteous.

"He has his moments," Raven said, because annoying or not, he was her brother. "But he was the first person I ever met who wasn't afraid of me, so I forgive him."

Jalian conceded the point with a shrug. "People who are afraid of you are stupid," she said vehemently.

"You'll get no argument from me," Raven assured her. "Unfortunately, they sometimes roam in packs."

That had been a rough one to reencounter before the holiday.

"Too many to knife at once." Jalian scowled. She gave Raven an apologetic look. "I didn't mean to make you think of all the bad things."

Re: General Mingling [Spring 2016]

Raven shrugged. "They come up sometimes." She smiled and leaned in to bump shoulders with Jalian. "Besides, your righteous anger about it is cute."

Re: General Mingling [Spring 2016]

Jalian grinned back. "You think so?" She leaned closer to Raven. "I worry for you."

"You don't have to," Raven said. "The days of being chased by angry mobs are behind me."

Re: General Mingling [Spring 2016]

[kenselvren.livejournal.com]

"Good." Jalian grinned impishly. "But I can chase you if you get bored."

Re: General Mingling [Spring 2016]

[tigerundercover]

Raven laughed. "Promise?"

"All around the dorms, if you like," Jalian answered. "Or in the woods, or on the beach."

Re: General Mingling [Spring 2016]

"I may take you up on that. You know, if my last semester gets too stressful."

Re: General Mingling [Spring 2016]

[kenselvren.livejournal.com]

"Your last semester?" Jalian's face fell. "I forgot it was so soon. Will you return to your own timeline?"

Re: General Mingling [Spring 2016]

[tigerundercover]

Raven shook her head. "Kathy and I are talking about getting a place in LA after graduation." She saw Jalian's expression and moved for another shoulder bump. "We're also talking about not missing our last summer here, either, though. There's still some time."

Re: General Mingling [Spring 2016]

"I'm glad." Jalian smiled and went for a hand on Raven's hip. "We should have another date."

Re: General Mingling [Spring 2016]

[tigerundercover]

Raven smiled. "I'd like that."
