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

[bigdamnprincipal]

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!]

Not on the druid spell list, though!

"You know, that actually takes a lot of the stress out of it for me?"

Because she would fret about this.

Druids had it rough, huh? You know. Said the... Fighter/Ranger hybrid.

"You cook a lot?" He literally survived on leftover food in the common rooms, so this was actually good to know.

To be fair, eventually the ability to change into a fire elemental at will would balance it out, because high-level druids were ridiculous.

"A little bit?" Heroes' Feast was a sixth level spell and even if it was within her abilities right now she couldn't afford to cast it. Gem-encrusted bowl worth 1000 gold pieces. What.

"Enough to get by, if I have to, but nothing really impressive."

Just get you a DM who didn't check those things out! Problem solved.

"Better than most. I can roast meat enough that it doesn't make me sick." Such skill.

"Which I feel is a severely underrated skill," Keyleth pointed out, because she had to try and put a positive spin on this, okay?

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2019]

THE POSITIVITY WAS JUST MAGICAL.

"I'll make you something." And it would be takeout because he couldn't really char something over an open fire here. Well. Other than s'mores.

"That'd be neat," Keyleth said, and meant it. "Deal?"

And held a hand up for a high five, like the dork she was.

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2019]

[crack_that_whip]

Trevor stared at her hand for a moment before grudgingly giving in to return the gesture.

Damn you for collecting goth boys, Keyleth.

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2019]

[goldfishontherocks]

She was only getting warmed up with this collection, Trevor. This was only the beginning.

She grinned at him, looking way too pleased about a successful high five.

"This is going to be neat."

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2019]

[crack_that_whip]

Just. Don't go to a Depeche Mode concert or anything, Keyleth. That'd skew the numbers even worse.

Trevor sighed and stole another piece of cheese off her plate. "It'll be okay."

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2019]

[goldfishontherocks]

Yeah, no. That was too many people for her to deal with anyway.

"Just okay?" She gave him a mildly disappointed look, but at least it was a playful one. "Well, that's keeping your expectations reasonable, at least."

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2019]

[crack_that_whip]

And it was decently high praise from him because he didn't immediately assume it would be shit.

"Haven't started the job yet," he pointed out. "Can't say for sure."

Maybe the librarian would kick them out!

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2019]

[goldfishontherocks]

Keyleth was going to get herself kicked out of a casino within five minutes of arriving someday, so that was not at all outside the realm of possibility.

"Good point. But you start this week, right? So we'll find out soon enough."
