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!]

"Hey there, new person," Molly said, walking up to her. "I'm Molly. Welcome to Fandom High."

Dawn swallowed her mouthful. "Hi, Molly. I'm Dawn. Nice to meet you. I like your hat."

Molly grinned. "Nice to meet you too, Dawn. And thank you. About the hat. I'm kind of know for them. If you ever forget my name, just mention 'the girl with the hats' and people will pretty much know you're talking about me." She grinned again.

"So, where are you from? How old are you? What year are you in? Are you just here for the summer? Do you know who your roommate is yet?"

Dawn laughed. "Wow, you're just as rambly as I am. Cool!"

"Um, I'm from Sunnydale, CA, which is a little town that fell into a huge sinkhole no one's ever heard of. I'm sixteen, I'll be a junior, I'm not sure about whether I'm staying on or not yet, and I'm rooming with him," she said, inhaling deeply as she pointed in Sam's general direction. "You've been here a while, right? The rooming assignments? They're not a misprint or a hallucination or anything like that?"

Molly turned to see where Dawn was pointing. "Whoa. The tall one? I either pity you or envy you. And no, no mistakes. Guys and girls room together. I haven't heard of anyone having an issue with it though," she said with a grin when she turned back to Dawn.

"Yeah, that's him," she said, grinning dorkily at Molly. "And I don't have an issue, either. Unless there's mandatory naked time or something. Just checking."

Molly laughed. "No mandatory naked time," she said and glanced over at Dawn's roommate again. "This summer is going to be so great."

"Do you want me to introduce you?" Dawn asked, eagerly. "Because I will. He looks like a guy who can appreciate a good hat."

Molly glanced over Dawn's shoulder at someone else really quick, but then grinned at Dawn. "Sure!"
