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!]

That did seem like Nina was suggesting that there was someone who might fit neatly into that category there instead of it just being some nebulous future possibility of someone fitting into that category a little, now, didn't it? Wayne's eyes regarded her a little sideways, underneath a quirked brow.

"'Course she would," he said. "I wouldn't want to date a girl who didn't."

"Right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Nina agreed since, like, that was the baseline apparently? "So, like, the real question is who........................."

That side eye was turning into a full-on glower now. This was definitely beyond a suggestion now.

"Who what, Nina?"

She grinned up at him, totally unfazed by his glower.

"What do you think?????????????" she asked impishly. "Honestly, Wayne!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You're the one that brought this up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"It's called a hypothetical, Nina!" Wayne countered, his argument persistent. "Meaning a proposition made as a basis for reasoning, without any assumption of its truth! A what-if, a thought exercise, a mere possibiliteh! Figgur it ouwt."

Greatly daring, Nina reached out to pat Wayne on the arm.

"It's okay if you're, like, shy..................," she said earnestly.

She was here to help!

"I'm not...!" Wayne started.

"It's not that...!" He tried again.

And, again, the third time was a charm. "Yer barking up the wrong tree, there, missy!" he declared. "Believe me, if there was a girl I was sweet on, she'd know about it!"

Nina considered him thoughtfully, speculatively.

"But what if, like, you haven't figured it out yet???????????????????"

Because, Wayne, deny it all you wanted but you hadn't shown up in a suit to impress Nina.

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2019]

[howareyanow]

That was right. He wasn't wearing the suit to impress Nina. Or anyone, for that matter! He was wearing it to prove a point!

And y'wanna know what? Point proven!

"Now if that ain't just about the goofiest thing I've ever heard, Nina, then, fuck, I don't know what is."

And Nina said a lot of goofy things.

She did! She was also right more often than people liked to admit!

"I missed you too, Wayne!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" And, really, she had, but she was also going to laugh. "Oh my gosh, like, the girl you're interested in is going to be in for an experience......................."
