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!]

"You're new, yes?" Without waiting for an answer, Sharon continued, "Welcome to the school. Do you dye your hair, or is it natural?" It's possible Sharon had had too much sugar. She also wondered how easy it would be to sneakily dye Leoben blue.

James blinked at Sharon, rather confused.

"It's natural. You've never seen naturally blue hair before? I thought it was pretty common."

He scratched the side of his head thoughtfully.

"Isn't it?"

"Nope." Grinning, Sharon popped a piece of jalapeno cheese in her mouth. "Well, not where I come from. Here? Who knows."

"Hm... How about that?" James thoughtfully munched on a cracker that he had systematically buried under about three inches of cold cuts. "I wonder what other hair colours aren't natural here? Ruby? Emerald? Sapphire? ... Wait. That's blue."

"Hot pink? Orange?" Sharon suggested, then grinned again, "I'm Sharon, by the way."

James grinned right back. "Pink is a perfectly normal hair colour. And I'm James. Usually I have a long speech that I use when I introduce myself, but my partner isn't here to begin it, so I'll spare you the double trouble."
