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

[bigdamnprincipal]

Back at home in Maryland, the weather was awful and raining and gross, just like it had been all week. Thankfully, Fandom's current locale was providing the island with much nicer weather to welcome the new students. It was warm, and sunny, and just about everything the administration could ask for on picnic day.

The tables and chairs had been dragged out and set up around the lawn, and there was the usual buffet table of delectable foods, along with the 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!]

"Yep!" Vanessa confirmed, holding up her hand and wiggling her finger with the Voltron ring like it was a two-carat flawless princess cut. "And I'm glad to hear that. They helped me out of a tough spot--" Okay, they rescued her when she was the damsel in distress. "--but I can do without the speechifying."

//Oh, Christ, the speeches,// Jono replied, burying the not-burning part of his face in his hand. //I'm all for not running around committing casual murder, but there's only so much of the speeches a person can take. Anyway, it's a bit hypocritical, considering... Wolverine.//

Considering Wolverine. Period.

"Oh, do you know that guy?" Vanessa asked. "Wade seems to have a grudge against him for some reason, but I don't really understand it. Something about his mouth being sewn shut and development hell?" She shrugged. "Wade."

//Played a mentor figure to me for a while, sort of. It ended poorly.//

To say the least. But there he went, running back to Westchester to teach when Logan had asked.

Like a moron.

//I don't pretend to understand Wade's grudges, though more often than not there generally seems to be something to them. He's good at that.//

"So apparently I'm supposed to ask you about Wade's kid that he never told me about before?" Vanessa was not thrilled for some reason.

Jono couldn't imagine why!

//Adopted child, if that helps any,// he offered, spreading his hands a little. //Though there might be some alternate reality craziness going on, there. I'm still not entirely certain.//

Wade was Wade, after all. Unless somebody had done something horribly wrong somewhere and sewed his mouth shut.

"Alternate universes," Vanessa repeated. Then she sighed and muttered, "Well, that would explain why he was insisting it was 'another him.'" She'd run that through her Wade to normal filter and thought he meant his old face.

God, she missed his old face.

//I think in this one case, your Wade is completely innocent,// Jono promised. //Which... is possibly the strangest thing I've said all day.//

Because... Wade.
