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!]

"Thanks," Joxer says. "It's home made."

"Homemade is the best! Particularly when it comes to food. But I like to make my own clothing also. I'm Pippi and this is Mr. Neilson."

The monkey on her shoulder tipped his hat to Joxter as Pippi held her hand out to him.

"Welcome!"

Joxer takes Pippi's hand and shakes it. "I'm Joxer. Joxer the Mighty. Thanks for welcoming me."

Pippi's handshake is gentle but firm, when the words "the Mighty" come out of his mouth, it gets just a tad more firm.

"Pleased to meet you Joxer the Mighty! I look forward to hearing tales of your heroic exploits!"

"There's not a whole lot of those--" he catches himself. "I mean, of course, yes. I'd love to tell you my tales of... being mighty. Some other time."

"Wonderful!" she finally lets his hand go. "I'm sure there'll be an opportunity to make more while you're here!"

"Really? You get a lot of opportunities for great deeds here?" Joxer looks a little eager. "Cause I could really use a chance to make sure everyone knows the name of Joxer the Mighty."

Pippi clapped him on the shoulder.

"You've come to the right place my friend."

"Good," Joxer says. "Would hate to think I was sent to the wrong one."

"That would be worrisome yes." she mused.

"Well, thanks for making me feel welcome, Pippi," Joxer says. "You can drop by my room any time, if you like."
