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

[bigdamnprincipal]

There really was just no getting around the fact that it was cold outside today as Fandom welcomed its newest residents. Food? Check. Nametags and lists for people to look at for their siblings and roommates? Check. Bonfire? Definite check, it was hard to miss in the center of the lawn. Temperature away from the fire? Around 40F/5C.

At least there was a lot of warm food and chairs by the fire?

[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!]

"Good," Bobby said firmly. "I mean, I don't dislike him, he's me, after all, but it's still super weird and yeah. That's me. The 'younger one'."

Which was pretty much the distinguishing trait when it came to the two of them, considering the older versions of the rest of his friend group had all either died or gone off the rails in one way or another.

Given the meat-suit that Warren had become and the fact that Jean was dead and Hank and Scott had both kind of gone nuts in their own special ways, being the younger one was probably not so bad, Bobby.

//No shame in being the younger one,// Jono decided. //The older one's a bit of an arse, anyway.//

Jono held grudges. Older Bobby had once flipped a table on him while yelling that he should just join the bloody X-Men, already. And then he'd been promptly ignored by every damn team leader he'd ever had.

Scott was also dead now, in Bobby's timeline! But Warren was apparently back to normal, so.

"I dunno if I'd go that far," Bobby said, feeling a little defensive of, well. Himself. "But I don't really get him, sometimes."

Aw, defensive Bobby. You were adorable.

Your older self was still a total tit, though.

//Because he's lived an entire life you've barely gotten to, yet,// Jono replied with a shrug. //And maybe the life you live will be different. Once timelines start getting messed up, if he's never been where you are, you become more like twins than the same person, anyway. At least, that's my understanding of it all.//

Jono hadn't really had the pleasure of meeting other versions of himself, outside of the island's nonsense. He was perfectly fine with that. There were already enough versions of himself living in his own damn head, after all.
