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

Gosh, the summer picnic was so much nicer--and warmer--than the spring one. There were tables and chairs set up in the sun and the shade, and more than enough food for everyone. Hopefully, everyone was up for socializing for a while!

[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!]

Ringo blinked. "I am?" She smiled, a bit confused at Alluka's response, but relieved at the same time. "Isn't that normal for me, though?"

"Yes," Alluka said, since that meant Ringo had to stop being weird now, didn't it? "But it's okay. Since you're Ringo."
soniaroadsqueen: (straight at you)

"Well, I do my best."

Ringo looked over at Alluka for a moment, then shrugged. "So I know you have a bunch of chocolate, but other than that, are you having fun so far?"

"So many things are great today!" she bubbled happily. "Papa gave me a job at the music store, so now I have two of them! Two jobs, Ringo! And, and Dante's going to teach me to hit things!"

Which was possibly terrifying. But she was excited.

"Oh, a new job! That's exciting."

As for the Dante thing, hmm. Ringo tapped her chin thoughtfully with one finger. "Hitting things with Dante, huh?" She cocked her head. "What brought that on?"

Alluka was not entirely certain, honestly!

"Well, he said that I couldn't always just cry if someone hurt me," she said, which had seemed reasonable enough. "And all my brothers know how to hit people."

And more than that, besides.

"Well, I guess that makes sense." Ringo pursed her lips, but despite everything, she trusted Dante. At least when it came to other peoples' safety. So this might actually end up being a good thing.

"So: new job, learning to hit things. That's a lot of excitement to start the summer with!"

Ringo grinned, looking up at the sky for a moment. "Summer is the best, too." Didn't Alluka agree?

Alluka didn't have much frame of reference, but she'd liked all the seasons of the past year pretty much. They all had exciting things to go and see and do.

"It's nice," she said happily. "Do you like summer the best?"

"Yeah. The weather is so good for being outside, which means that you can basically just do AirTrek all the time!" That was the best!
that_oldsaying: (Die for me!)

Alluka laughed. "Does that mean you're always going to be busy with it?"

"Well, not always, but a lot." Ringo grinned. "But I don't know if I'd call it 'busy' since, you know, it's fun!"

"It is fun," Alluka agreed. "And you're so good at it that it would be silly to not have fun with it."

Alluka, on the other hand, was barely decent at normal skating, let alone the kind that meant using the features related to AirTrek.

"Hey!" Ringo's grin widened. "You should come with me sometimes!" Alluka had potential. Ringo wasn't sure how much, but she could tell there was something there.

Maybe it was genetic?

There was definitely likely to be some genetic component to it, given that her family had been very, very careful about who they married and how strong they were for generations.

Not that Alluka really knew any of that.

"Can, can I?" she asked hopefully. "I won't slow you down too much?"
soniaroadsqueen: (ATs)

Re: General Mingling [Summer 2016]

[personal profile] soniaroadsqueen 2016-05-07 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Ringo laughed. "Of course you can! And I bet you'll get up to speed pretty quickly." Besides, they could have fun even if they didn't go super-fast.

Though that was the best way to do things.

"I hope so," she said earnestly. "I don't want to make things slow for you."

"You shouldn't worry about it. I mean, we can have plenty of fun just hanging out and seeing the scenery, right?"

"I do like the scenery," Alluka admitted, then brightened. "Like where we are now! I haven't gone exploring yet, but isn't it pretty?"

Re: General Mingling [Summer 2016]

[personal profile] soniaroadsqueen 2016-05-07 06:46 pm (UTC)(link)
"It is!" Ringo grinned. "And if you haven't been exploring, then we should definitely do something about that!"
