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

[bigdamnprincipal]

Despite the not-so-great weather earlier in the week, the weather today looked nice and... well, decent for the end of December, and while the rest of town might still have signs of last week's snow, there were no traces left outside the school. (It just meant one less uncomfortable question for the big siblings to deal with, you're welcome.)

The buffet table was ready, set as far as possible from the glittered-out blue and gold tables and chairs. The winter bonfire was crackling for warmth and food-toasting opportunities. The lists of siblings and roommates had been double-checked. It looked like everything was ready for a picnic!

[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!]

“How many castles have you been in, exactly?”

IT WAS AN HONEST QUESTION.

Fjord just smiled crookedly, and then gestured to the school by jerking his thumb toward it over his shoulder.

Exactly that many, Beau.

“Uh huh,” Beau said, smirking. “Though that’s kinda still one more than I have, so.”

Which was possibly true. It hadn’t been established otherwise in canon yet.

"Well, we can remedy that," Fjord mused. "You're going to need the grand tour sometime if you want to swing by my lessons, after all."

“. . . yeah, I’m into it,” Beau decided. “I’m totally not going to get lost or anything on the way, but sure.”

"You'll like it," Fjord decided with a chuckle. "Assuming I figure out how to work it by Tuesday."

Earth, your calendar had weird and stupid names.

"The room we're using has 'danger' right in the name."

"And they let the kids in it? Either I almost kinda like this school or I have serious concerns about their safety --" Wait, what was Beau saying? She snorted. "Not really, I don't care about that. Gotta learn sooner or later."

"And better for them to learn under supervision, right?"

Yeah, Fjord had no idea what 'kid appropriate' even was.

Re: Meet Your Teachers! [Spring 2019]

[notallbluemonks]

". . . sure."

Did either of them have any idea what 'kid appropriate' was? No. Not even a little bit.

"Still, probably less rough than the m -- the people I learned from."

Well, that got the faintest tilt of his head, yes. But here probably wasn't the time to follow up on that slip, was it? In front of everybody? Nah. And so he shrugged and nodded.

"Aim was to do better than the ones I learned from. We'll see how that goes."
