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

Despite the fact that this picnic was celebrating the new 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!

"Not everyone intends to come here," Belle said, not without sympathy. "I did but plenty of others seem to arrive without meaning to. Perhaps I can help while you're here, at least? Explain things, or show you around. I could even, if you like, introduce you to Five."

If she had to.
cassandras_sister: (ooh?)

"I guess?" Allie said. "I would really like to know more about people not meaning to end up here."

"It's an odd place," Belle said in a rather epic understatement.

"People are here from all over. Other worlds, even. I am."

"Where are you from?" Allie asked, a tad warily.

"The kingdom of Misthaven. It's in another realm entirely. It gets easier to accept with time, I promise."

Belle was going to skip the part about traveling here by magic bean. It seemed best.
cassandras_sister: (maybe)

"You're from a kingdom," Allie repeated. "In a realm. Yeah, that does take getting used to."

"The technology here is marvelous," Belle said. "Where are you from then?"

"Connecticut. Which is..." She gestured vaguely, weakly I dictating north. "That way."

"Oh, that's not far at all. Relatively."

Belle, unlike some people, paid at least some attention to geography.

"But you just woke up here? You weren't planning on going anywhere at all?"
cassandras_sister: (pensive)

"I was very much not going anywhere." She wasn't allowed. "So this is interesting."

"I don't think just waking up here happens all that often. Will you be alright? What can I help with?"
cassandras_sister: (try me)

"I've traveled through them," Belle said. "To get here from home and to take trips from here. "

"Do you know what to do if they say they can't access where you're trying to go?"

It'd been a bad day.

"I'm sorry, I don't," Belle said apologetically. "I've heard of other people being stuck though."
