Festivus in July, Fandom High front lawn, Friday afternoon

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Sometime during morning workshops, when no one was paying nearly enough attention except those concerned, the Fandom High schoolgrounds had filled with snow.

For the record, "those concerned" meant Rory Gilmore and several dozen snow cone distributors from the mainland. But who wants to ruin the illusion? Students who were curious might assume that it was simply a Festivus in July miracle, or some such.

In the middle of the lawn stood a bare, aluminum pole. Festivus tradition, you know.

[Yes, the schoolgrounds have snow. I'm weathermodding and saying it's cool enough today through this evening for it to stick, and it'll melt overnight. And yes, we're having Festivus in July. For those not in the know, here is a handy Wiki link! Please wait for OCD. Up, yay!]

"I'll stay away from secrets. Have enough of secrets anyway. Locked in my mind. Can't reach them." River mumbled almost inaudibly.

"Good." And that had to be *so* much less than fun for River; other people's thoughts stuck somewhere in her brain. She tried to think of something fun, something light, and remembered-- "Hey, aren't you cheering at the game tomorrow? Do you know which team you're supporting yet?"

River blinked. She hadn't thought about it yet. "I guess I should support Tyler's team?"

"Yay." Parker grinned. "That's good. You two are dating, I guess?"

Now River grinned. "Yes, we are." She almost blushed.

"Yay." Parker's smile widened. "I'm glad. He's an interesting guy. Hope his team wins tomorrow, so you can celebrate with him."

"Hm. Celebrate." River smiled again. "But I guess he'd celebrate with the team."

"There could be another celebration, later..." Parker's not trying to keep secrets? But the soundtrack to "All That Jazz" is playing in her head anyway. She snickers.

For some reason that made River burst into a fit of giggling, where she lay down in the snow again and rolled around in the snow.
