Jan 03, 2015 02:38

The forecast for today might have called for rain, but thankfully, there was no sign of bad precipitation in Fandom. The weather was bright and sunny, but still a bit chilly, so the first thing people might have noticed when they arrived was the bonfire set up in the middle of the lawn.

Parker's name tag said "Alice White." It was also upside down.

She might have mistaken that plate of cookies as one serving, and be happily eating her way through it right now. Nobody but Eliot better try to stop her.

Anakin noticed the new face and nodded at her on his way to get all the coffee.

Dammit, Obi-Wan.

Parker waved and shoved another cookie in her mouth. Om nom nom nom.

That guy looked like he could use one. But not one of hers. So she picked up a different plate and offered it to him.

"Pop tart?"

"Have you talked with my wife?" he teased, though his heart wasn't exactly into it. "She eats them for breakfast all the time."

"I don't know, who's your wife?" Parker responded, then nodded in approval. "Smart. They have the burst of sugar needed to bring you out of a death coma."

"Her name's Rory, but she's not here," Anakin said. "I'm Anakin."

"Oh. Oh! Cool. So what do teaching buddies do?"

Please forgive Parker. Conversational jumps go along with the ones off roofs.

Anakin blinked. "In general? Have you met yours yet?"

He'd had a shock and was way slow on the uptake this morning. Sorry.

"Helloooo!" Parker grinned and waved at him. That upside-down name tag probably didn't help, did it? "Eliot knows more about the Island but he hasn't taught before either. Except that one time. And he's insisting that doesn't count."

Anakin blinked. Not enough coffee for this. "Why didn't it count? Was he an animal or a kid?"

These were legitimate concerns around here, okay?

"Neither. Does that happen?" Parker wondered. "Because he's tried to claim he's not in danger, but since he never goes to the hospital when he's hurt..."

He's a big fat fibber, Anakin. Whatcha gonna do. He'll also give you coffee if you show up at the diner and ask for an explanation of Parker. Free!

"Can I ask to be a giraffe?... and it was only for a week. But he's great with kids. They can tell he'd break people's necks for looking at them funny."

"I'm not sure you can request a specific animal?" Anakin offered. "I always seem to end up as a cat."

A cute, cute, angry kitty.

"Well, a lot of people around here can break necks."

Belatedly, Anakin realized that might not be a positive.

"...in a good way?"

"That's what's important." Parker nodded at her Teaching Buddy, glad she understood him so well! Well. As well as she understood anyone.

Aliens. People were aliens.

"Well, just in case someone's taking notes: giraffe." Parker took another bite out of her cookie. "I visited Eliot over Parent's Weekend. And saw the show with the pink singing pony. Is she someone who was human and got turned into a pony?"

Because that would be awesome!

"No, that's Pinkie Pie," Anakin said. "She's always a pony."

He took a sip from his coffee. "You seem pretty blase about this place. That's a good sign."

"Is it?" Cool! See, Eliot had been so wrong to think this was a bad idea. "Also I'm hoping I can bring back proof of aliens for Hardison. Then maybe he'll visit here instead of insisting on staying in Baltimore."
