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!]

"Riiiiight," Marty said with a little eye roll. "I'll let you tell them about the gremlins but I still get to freak them out with the ex-assassin bit.'

"Deal." Nadia nodded. "Do you think I should throw in that my mom was KGB?"

"Yeah, but you got to say it in a way that they might think it's a joke but then again think twice about it when they learn *exactly* how wierd this place is," Marty said laughing. "Kind of like how I freaked you out with the ex-assassin bit."

Nadia nodded. "I'll have to practice, then. Do you want to tell them about the zombies and snow monsters?"

"Let's split the deal and I'll take the zombies and you can take the snow monsters," Marty suggested. "Is there anything else weird I'm forgetting?"

"Evil dentists?" Nadia started ticking things off on her fingers. "Muppet chickens, lemurs, the laundry machines, weetiny bunnies, doors that refuse to open unless you sing to them," she took a breath. "Vicious attack programs in the danger shop, teachers that turn you into animals, infectious haiku, waking up as a little kid. . . ." She blinked, staring at her hands as she ran out of fingers. "We'll have them running away screaming."

"You forgot genderswapping," Marty said with a sympathetic pat on the shoulder. "But hopefully that won't happen again anytime soon."

Re: Mingle/Meet the Newbies

[nadiathesaint]

"Well, I'm certainly not planning on it. But you're right. And body swapping."

"Unless they deserve it of course," Marty said with a smirk.

"Of course." Nadia smirked back. "I still have some of those pills in reserve, you know."
