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

So, the heat meant that many of the tables and chairs had been set up in the shade, and someone had found outdoor table umbrellas in blue and gold, god help us all. But hey, a little heat never hurt anyone who wasn't a vampire, right?

Ahem. The picnic was open for warm, sunny business.

[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!]

"I haven't enquired about it," Lucille confessed. "I'm sure they would make up some stupid excuse if you did. But one gets used to it."

She no longer had to make an effort not to stare.

"I hope I never do," Margaery replied, a touch dreamily, before letting out a giggle. "They seem more - free, here, than at home. No one uses titles, clothing seems largely optional for some, young men and women linger about together absent chaperones by the looks of things...."

She glanced over at Lucille. "I'm waiting for some terrible drawback, really."

Lucille wasn't going to complain about the freedom of this time, because apart from the fashion habits she found most of it was to her advantage. But as for drawbacks...

"Strange things happen."

"That much seems obvious," Margaery said, not unkindly. "How strange?"

"You might wake up one day and find that you are a boy," Lucille said. "The island itself has been moving around this summer to all sorts of strange places. People turn into animals, and I sometimes fall asleep for several days. Books are not always inanimate objects."

Lucille could go on.

"Were you a boy?" Margaery asked, choosing to start there. "What was it like?"

She didn't think she'd like that, much, but it could prove...educational. Especially if one turned back, after.

"I looked like my brother," Lucille replied, clearly not considering this a good memory. "It was rather disturbing."

Margaery's face may have betrayed how much fun she suddenly thought this idea not to be.

"Oh, ew." She wrinkled her nose. "I have three brothers. The idea of spending a day as any of them would be - I don't know if I could look them in the eye after. One doesn't always need to know one's family quite that intimately."

Margaery wondered which of them she'd take after, if she turned male for a day. Probably Loras - they favored each other the most, physically.

This was a silly thing to wonder about.

"That is my sentiment too," Lucille replied. At least Margaery understood this. "I love my brother dearly but I prefer not to be in his body."
