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

[bigdamnprincipal]

As the day went on, the humidity didn't get much better, but the fall decorations seemed to be holding out. If some of the apples and pumpkins disappeared... well, the wildlife deserved to have a festive day too, right?

[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!]

"I don't have any poison plans," Faye noted, like that meant anything anymore now that she was thinking about it. "I bet Anakin would retaliate really bad, though."

Like, really really bad.

"I'm sure he would," Stark said quickly. "Probably better not to give him any more cause to be himself."

Was Anakin responsible for the classes being switched? Who knew. He might be.

"He's already difficult. Though maybe without the paintball he won't be, so much? Or we'll find something else."

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2021]

[flourish_or_perish]

Blame him for the classes anyway!

"Prom was before paintball," Faye noted darkly. "Are you stuck teaching again? Nothing seems to have signed me up this time."

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2021]

[stykera]

Stark blamed Anakin for many things, what was one more?

"Prom was before," Stark agreed. Though if he were being honest with himself he'd allow that they had maybe deserved it. And that the ice water had really been worth it.

"I said I'd teach again. But...it can't be right, the schedule. It's not the right class."

"Why, what is it?" Faye wondered, her eyes widening in interest.

This sounded kind of good, maybe. What if Stark had to teach something hilarious?

(She would watch her laughter around him, that's what, because she had a stupid soft spot and wouldn't want to hurt his feelings.)

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2021]

[stykera]

It was probably going to be hilarious for some people.

"Superheroing," Stark said, still mystified about that particular choice. This wasn't going to go well. He could feel it.

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2021]

[flourish_or_perish]

"...what?" Maybe Faye had heard him wrong. "Superheroing? Like...saving people?"

Look, Stark, she liked you a whole lot, but this was not exactly meshing with your whole...deal.

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2021]

[stykera]

"It wasn't my idea. I'm not a superhero. Not even a hero."

Stark was a sidekick at best, Faye. Support staff.

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2021]

[flourish_or_perish]

"Heroism is overrated," Faye assured him with a pat to his arm. "But huh. What are you gonna do?"

No helpful advice here, no. Could she interest you in some revenge? Perhaps a tantrum?

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2021]

[stykera]

"I don't know. Someone has to do it, sometimes." Just not Stark.

"Not me. I'm not...I'm not good at it. I'll think of something."

But he could be interested in revenge.

"There should still be a trip involved, at least?" If he made it that far into the term.

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2021]

[flourish_or_perish]

"A trip?" Faye, predictably, perked right up. "One where we wouldn't have to share a room with five people. Or sleep in my luggage."

Of course Faye was inviting herself along. Look at how they'd bonded over the last one! What with the sleeping in her luggage and all.

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2021]

[stykera]

He was going to invite her if she hadn't invited herself. Obviously.

"You had enough bags it was almost like a bed," Stark said. "It was better than the floor. But yes, we wouldn't have to share. Or we shouldn't have to share. Not with anyone else."
