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!]

She was welcome; it was, after all, his job here.

"Them, yes," Hannibal agreed. "Also the man on fire," he pointed out Jono, "and the fact that several of the people here are from other time periods, or that most of them have arrived here by magic. Is any of this usual for the world you're from?"

Well. The one on fire didn't actually seem to bother her nearly as much as it should.

But Sweet Dee was just going to look at Hannibal with than expression that almost looked betrayed. You'd given her hope, Doc, and then you just snatched it right away out of her giant hammer hands.

"No," she said, like it was the most obvious thing in the world because it was. "No, it is definitely not."

But she, for a moment, seemed to reconsider.

"And, I mean, you still see some preeeeetttty weird shit in South Philly, but...I mean, come on," she gestured toward Mae. "That kid is obviously a cat."

But that reconsidering expression flooded right back to her.

"Actually, no, my brother's dead ex-wife tried to turn herself in to a cat, so never mind, bad example, but you get what I mean, right?"

"I understand, yes," Hannibal said. "But if you can take it all in stride, you will do fine. Strange things happen here on a regular basis."
