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!]

"Big words do not a smartie make," Greg pointed out. "I just left the sophomore class of San Gabriel High in the wake of a 4.4 GPA, was president of the chess club, and yeah, I ran track. Doesn't change the fact that I'm planning on applying to Stanford next year to major in chemistry."

"No, but an IQ that makes 163 look like a dribbling idiot does," said Zack Addy, stranger to the land of tact. "I've been studying at a university level for eighteen months and if not for the machinations of a vindictive high school math teacher, right now I'd be doing a summer internship in the Jeffersonian's Medico-Legal lab."

"Oooh," Greg said, eyes going wide. "You got an internship at the Jerffersonian?" He gave a low whistle. "Impressive, dude."

"You know about the Jeffersonian?" Zack asked. "Definitely not a jock then."

"Who doesn't?" Greg said. "And there's nothing wrong with getting a little sun and exercise. Trust me, not a fan of the big football-playing guys who like nothing more than to piss in my trainers, but not all so-called jocks are bad."

"It's not the sun and exercise that's the problem," Zack said. "It's the dealing with underevolved, overdeveloped cretins in the locker room."

Zack? Bitter? Ya think?
