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

[bigdamnprincipal]

The weather held out nicely during the day, and while that meant some of the tables were right out in the warm sun, others had been carefully placed under some shade, and the gentle breeze had cleared at least a little of the glitter up.

It wasn't totally gone, of course. That wouldn't be any fun!

[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!]

See? If he didn't know, he shouldn't be casting stones on an entire country's education system.

... Even if they were doing a lot of really stupid things out there these days.

//Well. I suppose information will come with time,// Jono hedged. //Hell, maybe she's been sheltered.//

Re: General Mingling [Summer 2017]

"Perhaps." Hannibal was dubious on that count. Alluka had been sheltered. That was different.

//Or not,// Jono relented, shrugging. //It'll be hard to say until I meet her myself, I suppose.//

She'd make his brain ache. She really would. And he'd double down on refusing to let Hannibal say it was the British education system, because otherwise that meant that everything intelligent about him, he'd get to give America credit for.

That simply wouldn't do.

"Please do," Hannibal said, nodding in her direction.

Because misery loved company.

//I might have to,// Jono replied, faintly amused. //Just as soon as I'm done people-watching.//

What? She wasn't his job, Hannibal.

Re: General Mingling [Summer 2017]

[sharp_man]

"She is people," Hannibal pointed out.

Like many of them, unfortunately.

Re: General Mingling [Summer 2017]

[furnaceface]

//And I'm perfectly capable of watching her from here,// Jono agreed, cheerily.

Re: General Mingling [Summer 2017]

[sharp_man]

Hannibal chuckled. "If you like, but you will definitely miss the full effect. If you only look visually, that is."

Go on, Jono. Peek in there. If there was an "in there".

Re: General Mingling [Summer 2017]

[furnaceface]

And in reply to that, Jono reached out psionically and gave Hannibal the notion that there might've just been a light swat about the back of his head.

//I'm not going digging just to see how stupid your new teaching buddy is, Hannibal.//

He had better things to do with his brain! Things that wouldn't make him feel more stupid for having done them!

Re: General Mingling [Summer 2017]

[sharp_man]

But Hannibal wanted you to share his pain, Jono! As his spouse, that was your job!

"I'm sure you'll encounter it sooner or later regardless," he said, resigned. And smoothing down the back of his hair with dignity, despite the fact it hadn't actually been ruffled.
