Welcome Party for the Summer Students and Staff

[bigdamnprincipal]

Despite the slightly overcast sky, the weather is still good for welcoming all of the new arrivals for the Fandom High summer session. The graduation decorations (and gremlin debris) have been cleared from the front lawn, and replaced with tables of information packets, food, and drinks. A series of signs point the students to the information table first, where they can pick up their room assignments from the office drones, and then continue on to the food tables to mingle.

And no, there are no inflatable gremlins around today. It's far too early to start scaring the new folks. That's what the mingling section is for!

[OOC: All right folks, have at it!]

Quidditch scores become right boring after awhile. Cedric figures he'd better make the best of this situation.

So, he offers his hand to the closest person to him.

"Hello. Cedric Diggory. Very new student and completely overwhelmed."

"Hello, Cedric," she said, accepting his hand immediately. "I'm Kaylee. Nice meetin' you."

"You as well," Cedric says, nodding. "New as well, I guess?"

Kaylee nodded and grinned. "I sure am. And I'm so excited to be here."

"Excuse me," Pip said, stepping over. "I can't help but notice the look of the completely and utterly lost. Can I help?"

Kaylee? Still smiling. "I s'pose I am just a bit. That obvious?"

"It shows," he says, smiling back. "You won't miss your previous school?"

"I'll miss Serenity," Kaylee said simply.

After meeting Peter Paige decided she should probably try to make some more female friends and noticed the very happy looking girl.

"Hi, I'm Paige, welcome to Fandom High," she said offering her hand.

Re: Mingle/Meet the Newbies

Kaylee smiled at the girl. "Nice meetin' you Paige. I'm Kaylee. Are you a student here?"

She nodded, "yep, just finished my first year, have you met many people yet?" she asked trying to work out when she should bring up the subject of all the wierdness that went on.

Re: Mingle/Meet the Newbies

Kaylee nodded. "Met a few people, yeah. This is all so shiny!"

Re: Mingle/Meet the Newbies

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

She raised an eye to the term 'shiny,' "um I'm guessing that mean good right?" she asked sounding unsure, "so has anyone told you about...the weirdness here?"

Re: Mingle/Meet the Newbies

[enginegirl.livejournal.com]

"Very good," Kaylee said. "Weirdness? I'm from the future, so can't say I'm surprised there's weirdness here."

A girl in a pink skirt and white blouse with a bright pink scarf to match the skirt walks past with a little dog in a bg that has a scarf to match her own.

"Hi!" she says brightly.

Re: Mingle/Meet the Newbies

[enginegirl.livejournal.com]

"Hi, I'm Kaylee," she said, offering her hand. She waved to the dog with her other hand.

Re: Mingle/Meet the Newbies

[blonde-elle.livejournal.com]

"Hi, Kaylee!" she chirped, "I'm Elle, and this?" she pushed the bag forward, "Is Bruiser. Isn't this a super mixer?" she asked with a bright smile as she shook Kaylee's hand.

Re: Mingle/Meet the Newbies

[enginegirl.livejournal.com]

"Hello Bruiser," Kaylee said cheerfully, petting the dog. "It sure is shiny."

Re: Mingle/Meet the Newbies

[blonde-elle.livejournal.com]

"That's because we only use the finest doggie shampoos and glossers on my sweetieboy," she looked down at him, "Don't we, Bruiser? Keep you beautiful and shiny."

She returned her eyes to Kaylee's, "So are you camping or counseling this summer, Kaylee?"

Cally finally wanders down to the gathering.

Wearing her jumpsuit and toolbelt. And smudged with engine grease.

Might as well give folks the right first impression of her.

She waved to the new girl. "Hello!"

Re: Mingle/Meet the Newbies

[enginegirl.livejournal.com]

Kaylee grinned at the girl. "Nice meetin' you. I'm Kaylee."

She noticed the jumpsuit and toolbelt. And the grease. "I see you don't mind gettin' greasy. I think we might get along just fine."

Re: Mingle/Meet the Newbies

Cally smiled and wiped her hands on her jumpsuit. "Heh, I just had to finish some tune-ups on a motor for a friend," she said. "My name's Cally."

Re: Mingle/Meet the Newbies

[enginegirl.livejournal.com]

"You fix engines?"

Re: Mingle/Meet the Newbies

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Yeah," Cally said. "Normally work on spaceships, but this one was for a boat." She smiled. "You do anything like that?"
