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

[bigdamnprincipal]

The weather had turned out absolutely lovely for today's picnic, through no interference of dark magic (as far as anyone knew). The bonfire had been scrapped for the season, replaced with more blue and gold chairs and tables for people to sit at. The usual buffet was out, and this time there were plates and to-go containers, because really, no one should have to resort to the unsanitary measure of pocket food in the 21st century.

Happy picnic day, everyone!

[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!]

"As far as I know it's...this one, but I'm prepared to turn out to be wrong about that at any time at this point," Manfred said. "As long as we're still in Maryland I'm sticking with it, though."

Manfred wondered vaguely if being a prince meant Sidon was rich, then mentally slapped himself. You didn't con family, even fake school-assigned family.

"We are in Maryland, yes! Very good! Your knowledge is exceptional so far!"

Out of anyone else's mouth, it probably would have sounded sarcastic, but out of Sidon, it was just so gosh darn sincere and wholesome.

"That is excellent that you are from this world!" he continued. "I am still learning so much about it, so perhaps you can teach me just as much as I could teach you, if not quite considerably more! My last little sibling was from this world, as well, a place called Massachusetts, if I recall correctly, which is not too far from here, by my understanding. Have you heard of it?"

"Yes," Manfred said. "Yes, I have heard of Massachusetts." Boy, this conversation was a whole other experience. "I even went there once. Didn't like it much." Too many ghosts in Boston.

And, interestingly, Sidon's other little sibling would likely be inclined to agree.

Sidon, meanwhile, just seemed a little surprised at any negative regard for anything. "No?" he asked. "Why not, if I may ask? And I certainly do hope you like it better here than Massachusetts. Where are you from? Not that I'm likely to have heard of it, but it would be very good to know, especially if you might recommend going there one day. I have so much of this world to experience, after all! Besides the island here, I've really only been to the Alps and China!"

"I'm from...all over, really. I was born in Tennessee," he offered. "You probably don't know where that is." He did not answer the question of why he hadn't liked Massachusetts.

"Once again, Manfred Bernardo, you are quite correct!" Sidon informed him brightly. "I have never heard of such a place, but I suppose that makes us even, though I will be proven most astonished and pleasantly wrong if you have, in fact, heard of Hyrule."
