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

The weather was lovely, the newbies had survived their shuttle, and yes, all the holes in the lawn from graduation had been filled and covered with new grass so everything looked normal and pretty. Well, pretty, at least.

[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!]

"Meep meep meep?"

No one wanted to see Beaker with his shirt off. No one.

And Peridot was already completely naked!

"I don't know why they do it," she noted, looking thoughtfully around the picnic. "They don't run around without shirts most of the time, unless they're at the shoreline participating in recreational activities that might or might not involve actually getting wet..."

She shrugged a little.

"I don't entirely understand humans."

Clearly.

Beaker meeped sympathically. Humans--like him! He was totally a human! If you squinted!--were tough.

Peridot nodded as if any of that made any manner of sense.

"Do you understand them at all?"

Beaker waggled his hand back and forth, meeping. What they were saying? Yes. Why they did what they did?

Only sometimes.

"That's what I thought," Peridot replied, sighing. "What a random species of weirdos."

No, no, 'Dot. Weirdos were a different species entirely.

Gonzo would never leave Fandom.

Beaker meeped, nodding vehemently, then held up the pizza. They weren't entirely useless?

Peridot gave a knowing nod to that.

"They do like triangles, yes."

She could forgive them on that basis alone.

That hadn't been exactly what Beaker was going for, but he didn't have strong views about shapes one way or the other, so sure!

He grinned and nodded again.

It was so great that they'd reached a mutual understanding based mostly about Beaker's easygoing attitude and Peridot's willingness to just make assumptions about anything she didn't perfectly understand!

And triangles, apparently. She nodded, satisfied, and then gestured back toward the table.

"If you finish that and require more in order to fuel yourself, let me know and I'll be happy to get it."

Because, again, shorties had to look out for one another here.

Beaker meeped his thanks, giving her another thumbs up.

He was going to spend a lot of time giving thumbs up.
