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!]

"Well, the island does try to kill us pretty frequently......................," Nina mused. "Though, like, most of what I know is because if you want to travel at home, then you've got to be able to fight??????????????"

Or be able to afford to hire people to do that for you.

Kuroko licked her lips, looking thoughtful. "Do you mean that literally? About the trying to kill us part?"

Nina's smile faded.

"Like, a few weeks ago the island turned us all into toys and if you weren't perfectly happy and perfectly good then you were deemed a bad toy and were sent to the Toybox to be tortured and reprogrammed so you were a good toy again. And, like, if you were a really bad toy then... you got executed, so..................."

She was definitely not kidding.

"Okay." That sort of matched up with the bits she'd gathered from Mae.

"Why in the world would anyone stay here, then?"

"The island doesn't let some people leave," she said, which was probably super not reassuring. "And, like, when it's not trying to kill us, it's really great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Neither of which were her reasons for being here.

"And, like, for a lot people............ it's home, you know??????????"

Still not Nina's reason!

"Sounds like a pretty terrible home. I mean, I'm not about to start defending Academy City, but while that place is pretty terrible, the average person isn't, like, under constant threat or anything."

At least, not usually, you know?

Except for, like, those three or four times.

Or five.
