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

The weather was warm, the food smelled good, and there was a good chance the new folks were a little extra glittery. What else could go into a perfect day for the picnic?

[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!]

"It still drives, doesn't it?"

Vette was not to be easily cowed, nope.

"I see all kinds of new students here! One of them was even sad there weren't more paper frogs at the picnic. But I don't see any of them flicking anybody's lekku!"

"I could barely see through the clouds of glitter!" Anakin exaggerated.

"Are you going to stand there and tell me that you, of all people, need to be able to see to drive?" Vette sounded utterly scandalized. "You don't even need your eyes open to shoot kids in the butt with paintballs!"

She shook her head, slowly. Sadly.

"Now I'll have to go and adjust my entire worldview again."

"Well, of course I can drive with my eyes closed, but it makes everyone else on the highway nervous," Anakin blustered.

"But does it? Does it really? Or were they just in awe of our really great decorating skills?"

Because Vette totally would've been in awe.

Or else she would've put a vehicle off the road laughing so hard.

"They were not in awe of your decorating skills," Anakin said. "How did you even get them to stay on?"

Because Anakin had done some seriously sharp turns trying to knock the Sith-forsaken things off.

"Troublemaker trade secret," Vette replied, smiling brightly. "I'd tell you, but then I'd have to up the ante."

And did you really want her upping the ante, Anakin? Did you?

"Up the ante as much as you'd like," Anakin said. "You'll be the one scraping it back off again, after all."

"Ah, how I suffer for my art," Vette replied, looking altogether put-upon.

If it was possible to do that while smirking. A lot.

Anakin remembered being an obnoxious teenager. He'd spent years teaching an obnoxious Jedi and then had transitioned to this school, which was maybe the only reason he wasn't stomping his feet like a demented toddler.

"It's not art, it's property destruction."

"Yeah," Vette agreed easily. "But you can't deny it's kinda pretty."

If you were super into glitter.

"I can absolutely deny it being kind of pretty," Anakin said.

"You don't think it's even a little bit pretty?" Vette had to wheedle, here. "Not even a teensy bit?"

Go on, dreamcrusher. Do your worst.

Anakin had been a professional dreamkiller. And all-around killer, but DETAILS.

He firmed his jaw. "Not even a little."

Vette made a disappointed little moue, and then just kind of sighed, slumping forward, looking defeated.

"Next time I guess we'll have to use more glitter."

It was the only way.

"I think you've used it all up. All the glitter. In the entire multiverse," Anakin tried.

Vette had to squint a little bit at that.

"So... you're saying I've peaked? This is the pinnacle of my life's work?"

"If I say yes, will you stop messing with the bus?" Anakin asked.

Vette considered this for a moment. And then shrugged and shook her head.

"Nah," she replied. "The faces you make are way too great."

Sorry not sorry, Anakin.

Anakin sighed heavily. "I had a bad feeling that you'd say that."

"That's me," Vette replied cheerfully. "All about giving bad feelings to authority figures!"
