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!]

Elizabeth nodded easily. "Yeah. Used to room with one," she said.

It was those she's met from other worlds before she came here that she won't talk about.

"Is she still here?" Ellie said, growing excited. "I'd love to talk to her about her home."

"Yeah. I don't see her here at the moment," Elizabeth replied, glancing at the crowd. "She's a bit quiet. Doesn't really talk much about where she's from. But I suppose you can always try."


[[ooc: Okay! *waves*]]

"Where I'm from people who believe in extraterrestrial life quite often are looked at like they're crazy," Ellie said. "But I was told that here I would meet people who aren't from earth, and, well, I'm excited for the opportunity. Even if no one back home will believe me."

Elizabeth nodded. "Yeah, we get that too at home," she said, shrugging. "We have several students who aren't from earth though, so I'm sure you'll meet some of them."
