Fandom High Welcome Picnic, Front Lawn of the School, All Day: Part II

Aug 29, 2015 02:53

There were tables and chairs set up all around the lawn. Some were in the sun, where folks could work on their tan while they ate, and some were in the shade where folks could stay cool and non-crispy ( Read more... )

Well, free food couldn't be faulted. Even if this whole set up was in no way on the level, Eggsy was going to get a good meal out of it.

He took a seat to get a better idea of just who he was supposed to learn with.

Mara gave him a little smile. "New kid or one who arrived during the summer and I don't know yet?"

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2015] myfaireggsy August 29 2015, 14:44:04 UTC

"New kid," he replied with an easy grin at the attentions of a good looking girl. He tapped the god awful, but corrected, nametag on his chest. "Name's Eggsy."

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2015] giveherahand August 29 2015, 14:50:06 UTC

"Mara," Mara replied. "Are you from Coruscant too? Your accent sounds familiar."

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2015] myfaireggsy August 29 2015, 14:54:41 UTC

"South London," Eggsy said, trying to think if he'd heard of that before. Maybe a neighborhood he didn't know? "Where's Coruscant?"

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2015] giveherahand August 29 2015, 14:58:09 UTC

"Far, far away," Mara said with a wry smile. "It's another planet."

Where they all sound British. Because that made sense.

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2015] myfaireggsy August 29 2015, 15:02:34 UTC

It made perfect sense to Americans. It's what we do.

"Yeah? You takin' the piss?"

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2015] giveherahand August 29 2015, 15:12:38 UTC

Mara paused. "Am I what?"

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2015] myfaireggsy August 29 2015, 15:15:07 UTC

Well, at least the slang didn't translate to space. Because that would be awkward.

"Joking. Are you joking."

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2015] giveherahand August 29 2015, 15:18:31 UTC

"About being from another planet?" Mara smiled. "Sorry, no. I'm from an entirely different galaxy, actually."

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2015] myfaireggsy August 29 2015, 15:21:29 UTC

Well, wasn't that a new one for Eggsy.

"...the fuck is wrong with this school?"

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2015] giveherahand August 29 2015, 15:25:49 UTC

"Many, many things," Mara said, "but you'll definitely learn a lot?"

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2015] myfaireggsy August 29 2015, 15:31:53 UTC

Well, at least she wasn't trying to sugarcoat the wrongness too much. He had to give her that.

"Really should have read that brochure, yeah?"

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2015] giveherahand August 29 2015, 15:37:20 UTC

"I'm not sure it would've helped," Mara said. "They're very good at giving a benign impression."

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2015] myfaireggsy August 29 2015, 15:42:56 UTC

"Meaning they're good about talking shit," Eggsy replied with a huff. "Least they feed us."

Re: General Mingling [Fall 2015] giveherahand August 29 2015, 20:29:35 UTC

Mara nodded. "At the cafeteria, too, and most of the common rooms'll have food because the delivery guys are terrible at getting portions correct."
