Welcome Party for the Summer Students and Staff

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!]

"One of my friends has a theory about alternate universes," she explained, "and there's this one universe where there was no shrimp, and I was wondering if maybe we were in it."

She mentally facepalmed. Yeah, because that was the way to make a good first impression, Dawn.

"Oh," Marie said simply. Her father always said people from California were a bunch of drugged out hippies. She wondered if maybe he was right. Of course, that would make her roommate a drugged out hippie and Willow had seemed normal. Huh.

"So what brings you to Fandom High?" Marie asked.

"My sister wanted to keep me out of trouble for the summer," Dawn said, trying to regain some conversational ground. "What about you?"

"My parents wanted me to have a 'unique educational opportunity'," Marie explained.

Dawn looked around. "Okay, castle, but otherwise it looks pretty normal, don't you think?"

"I guess," Marie said. "It's pretty, that's for sure."

"Me too," Marie agreed.

"So what room are you in? I'm in 509."

"329," Dawn answered after a quick check of the housing assignments.

"I'll make a note of that. We'll have to hang out sometime," Marie said.

Dawn nodded. "That would be great."

"Bye, Marie. It was nice meeting you!"
