Fandom High Graduation Ceremony, Class of 2020, Early Saturday Evening [Part 2]

[bigdamnprincipal]

As the last diploma was handed out, there was a moment of quiet as those who had attended one of these ceremonies before waited to see what would happen.

Then, when Zoe got up to usher everyone away, the lawn was suddenly full of the island's animals--squirrels, teal deer, alots, even a few gremlins--carrying signs bearing what could only be described as squirrel handwriting.

"'We... want hats too?' 'Haberdashery for all?' Are you [microphone feedback] kidding me?!"

An angry woodchuck pushed through the squirrels and chucked a piece of wood at her, and as the barrier came down separating the graduates from the crowd, anyone close enough could probably hear, "That's not why you're called woodchucks!"

"If I may," said Sidon, flashing his best grin, "my dear woodland animals of this island, suggest but one very important thing to consider: if you're anything like myself, you may actually find that hats," and here he doffed his mortarboard and tossed it to the nearest alot, though it was, unsurprisingly, intercepted by a teal dear, "much like clothing," to prove his point, the robe would have to go, too, "is highly overrated!"

He was, of course, incredibly biased, but he figured his enthusiasm and shirking of such material objects could rally at least a few of these poor beleagured critters!
