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

Despite the fact that this picnic was celebrating the coming fall semester, it was still technically summer, and the weather was making that clear. It was sunny, with not a cloud in the sky, and the temperature was seasonably toasty.

With not a minute to spare, the food was ready, the tables and chairs had been spread across the lawn with just the right amount of glitter on them, and everything was ready to welcome a new batch of folks to the island.

[OCD is up! This is part one of the picnic, specifically for meeting siblings, roommates, and teachers. The rest of the picnic is happening here. Since it's outside, the picnic is open to all students, teachers, and townies!]

Mae turned and blinked. And blinked again.

"Um."

That was all she had right now.
thishouseishaunted: (hello fellow person)

"Hi," Mae said, giving her a little wave. "You're not, like, a demon-slayer guy from the dark ages, are you?"

Trevor had left an impression.
complexfemale: (like a trainwreck)

"None of those things apply to me," Maeve said, and had to address the elephant in the room, so to speak. "You seem to be a talking cat."

If someone slipped something into her drink, she was going to be pissed.

Mae rolled her eyes. "Not you, too."

Well, at least Maeve wasn't alone in potentially hallucinating?
complexfemale: (are you actually serious)

"Are you not a talking cat?"

This felt important.
thishouseishaunted: (oh my god!!!!)

“Of course not!” Mae said. “Are you a talking—I don’t know—chimpanzee?”
complexfemale: (big whatever)

"No, I'm a woman," Maeve said, firmly. "Do people often think you're a talking cat?"

Because she looked a hell of a lot like a talking cat.
thishouseishaunted: (depressed)

"Of course you don't. Why would you."

Maybe the bus crashed and Maeve was dead, or in a coma, and this was what was happening.

"No. Are you messy?" she countered.

“Yup,” Mae said. “And I’ve had the room to myself for awhile. It’s kinda gonna suck to be you.”
complexfemale: (let's not?)

"Exactly what I needed," Maeve said with a sigh.

"It's alright," Mae said. "Mostly I just sleep all the time."
complexfemale: (upset in private)

"Do you snore?"

Maeve was pretty sure she knew the answer.

Mae shrugged. "Trevor never complained? But he liked to camp, so who knows?"

complexfemale: (all right)

"...Liked to camp?"

Was that a euphemism? Of some kind?
