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

[bigdamnprincipal]

The lawn was arranged with tables and chairs - some near the food, some not - and there was plenty of food to go around. The school had even wised up and put to-go boxes by the plates, so people didn't have to put food in their pockets to take it with them for later. No one was gonna judge you for making some pocket bacon, but at least now it wasn't a necessity.

[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!]

Kaidan was a little bemused and dopey looking when he finally went to check out the tail end of the picnic. He'd slept most of the day. Probably trying to fight off a cold or something, he guessed.

He didn't see Jack. He was looking around for Kanan.

She saw that and smirked. Casually strolling along until she was behind him and out of his line of sight, she made sure the run up was clear.

Then she did run. Right at his back. Lips skinned back in a manic, gleeful, terrible smile.

When she was close enough, she leapt and hit the ground with biotics for a small added boost.

Incoming, asshole.

He felt her coming. The hairs on the back of his neck rose of their own accord and every instinct in him started shrieking alarms. Kaidan spun just in time to see her leave the ground.

It gave him just enough time to recognize her and what was about to happen. Time enough to brace and catch her around the waist when she landed on him.

"JACK!"

"What are you.. Why.. how?.. You said New Year's Eve!" he spluttered up into her face when his brain derailed.

Jack locked her knees at his waist, grabbed his head and left a wet, smacking kiss dead center on his forehead. The itchy kind that no matter how much you rub you still feel for hours.

"Did I forget to tell you I was hired? I'm teaching Civics here this semester so yeah, I'll be here for New Year's and yeah, we are dragging Kanan and Sparkle out for some fun because so help me you all need it."

She had not forgotten to mention it. She had not told him on purpose specifically so she could enjoy this moment. It wasn't often she got to pull a rug completely out from under him.

It was the little things in life that gave her such joy.

"You're teaching here this semester?" Kaidan echoed. He kept hold of her with one arm and used the other to reach up and try to scrub his forehead.

Damnit. That feeling was just going to linger. He scowled at her. It was a complete opposite of how he was feeling. Surprise, growing joy, gratitude. Just a complete stew of emotions while his brain came to terms that she was here, and not just for a weekend this time.

"Civics?" That wasn't what he would have picked as a subject.

"Yeah," she grinned at him, "Civics. What a law is. How to change them. What to do when they suck and you can't change them. Sh..stuff like that."

Teaching all those young, impressionable kids how to rebel properly. Think about it, Kaidan!

Re: General Mingling [Spring 2019]

Kaidan listened and then laughed. He knew very well what she meant. "Oh god. We're all doomed. Time to evacuate the ship and swim for it. Jack's teaching the kids how to break the law and not get caught."

Jack cackled, "I sent them the syllabus, Kaidan. They hired me anyway. My conscience is clear."

Always was.
