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

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!]

"Me neither," Entrapta admitted. "I'm from Dryl, on Etheria." She looked to see if that rang any bells for him. "And I have questions. Lots and lots of questions. Where do I go for lab space? Does the school have tiny foods and fizzy drinks because I only brought enough for the trip? Do you know what the First Ones are? Is there any First Ones tech around? If so, can I experiment on it? Are there servants? Or should I use robots? Are there robots? Where did the shuttle go? Can I play with it now? What does 'going to school' actually mean?"

Fortunately, she paused for another breath on the easiest question for Prompto to answer.

And those were....those were lots and lots of questions, just like she said, and Prompto realized that he kind of had his work cut out for him with this job, and he wondered if he was like this with Sabine when he got here. He liked to think he at least gave Sabine time to answer them, though.

And he was going to try his hardest to remember all of them, but with remembering and trying to find the best spot to wedge in with answers, he knew he was definitely going to miss something. But, hey, if it was important enough to Entrapta, she'd probably be more than happy to backtrack, right?

"Okay," he jumped in when he could, "first, lab space, I'm sure there's some in the school, maybe talk to the science teacher about something like that? He might know; I know the shop teach was pretty cool about us using shop space if we needed. Uhhh," crap, Prompto, don't stop to think, she'll start in with more questions if you give her an opening, "plenty of food, there's usually stuff in the common rooms, but there's also restaurants and Turtle & Canary's kind of a general store, lots of stuff there, I don't know what the First Ones are, so I don't know if there's First Ones tech because I wouldn't know what that is, there aren't servants here, sorry, but there are...some robots, I think? But not many, and going to school here means going to whatever classes you're assigned to once a week and doing whatever the teacher's doing for that class that day, which is way different and a lot more casual than what I'm used to. Sometimes you might even have days where you don't have any classes."

Which he thought was nice, because it meant he got to play more video games, but he had a feeling that Entrapta was the type that liked to keep busier than that.

And he think he got...most of them? Probably not all of them, but he felt pretty proud of what he managed to spit out!
