BWI Airport Portalocity Lounge, Saturday morning [05/04].

[howareyanow]

"What the ever-loving fuck is a Portalocity Lounge?"

Apparently, it was precisely the place where Wayne was standing, squared shoulders, thumbs in his belt loops, frowning up at the softest, most sparkliest banner he had ever seen...and he'd een to at least a baker's dozen of Dary's traditional soft birthday parties, so he knew a soft fucking banner when he saw one.

"That," he stated, to no one in particular, especially since he seemed to be the first one there (if you're not five minutes early, you're five minutes late, bud), "is fucking 10-ply."

But it was what it was. No going back now, ain't no reason to get excited, he supposed. Pitter-patter. So he turned his head sharply to one side of the lounge, eyed the chairs against the wall, and went to have a seat, one hand on his knee, tohe other around the smallest cup of coffee he could get, and settled in to wait.

Karolina almost pointed out only the chocolate was really meant for biting into, but then decided not to. It could've been a cultural thing and she didn't want to be rude - and anyway, as far as ways of interacting with the world went, it wasn't the worst she'd seen.

The talking dog didn't seem to faze her much. Chalk that up to her lengthy history with Fandom. "I suppose so," she agreed with only a touch of hesitation. She offered Barnabas a nod of greeting. "Hello, Barnabas." Then, to Delirium, "And hello and welcome to Fandom to you too! And you are ...?"

She'd looked at the list Anakin had, sure, and so she had a guess. But she always felt weird about going places and having people know her name in advance, so she didn't really want to do that to others.

"Hello," Barnabas said in a stately, dignified voice, "This is the Lady Delirium."

"Right now I'm a girl person," Delirium said after she'd thought quite seriously about the question, "and a student. Or I will be a student once we're at the school so right now I'm kind of Schroedinger's Student where I am but I'm not but I probably will be soon." More thinking. "Am I still a student when I'm butterflies? Sometimes I like to be butterflies. Today might be a butterfly day. I'm feeling a little fluttery inside."

Karolina's head tilted a little. "Is that metaphorical, or..?"

Sorry, she really couldn't help asking.

"I mean," she added, after a pause, "if it's not metaphorical, you won't be expected to go to class when you're butterflies." She sounded kind of joking, but also kind of not. Because, Fandom.

Barnabas caught Karolina's eye and shook his head slowly. It was not, unfortunately, metaphorical. "Butterflies, fish, frogs.. Once she was glitter and we were finding bits of her all over for months. If it hadn't all turned back into her, we'd be finding bits of her still."

Delirium was distracted by something for a moment and promptly forgot what she'd been asking. But she remembered something else. "Thank you for the papers and stuff."

"She's not the only one that happens to, on Fandom," Karolina told Barnabas. With maybe a hint of wryness, if you paid really close attention. "She'll fit in just fine."

More or less.

But Karolina was still smiling. "All my info's on the card, so if you have any questions, you can always give me a call or come by the office. Welcome to Fandom."
