Fandom High 20 Year Reunion Brunch, The Park, Sunday Morning into Afternoon

[smilestopscars]

There was a small chance of rain on the island today, but as the weather was still warm enough, that had not stopped the school administration for having the customary brunch outdoors in the park. It just meant some more canopies had been set out, to protect both the alumni as well as all the food and drink on offer from any possible rain

Arrive/Mingle! [Brunch]

There were still nametags around, if people wanted to use them. Old age makes the memory go, after all.

Peter arrived shortly after his wife - he'd taken a little detour, wandering around the island, buying some local soda at the local grocery shop, whatever the hell it was called again.

So yes, he was showing up to the brunch with his own drink. And a neat Peter Wiggin name tag, pinned to his suit.

It was the afternoon by the time Envy returned to him. Coincidentally, right from talking to his brother.

"Have we put in enough time here already?"

Peter took a sip from his drink, and then a glance at his watch. "Well, you've been here longer than I have," he said, "And I've been here long enough."

Food and Drinks! [Brunch]

[smilestopscars]

There were all kinds of moddable breakfast foods available, and plenty of drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, since some people might want to remember this time later.

Day two, and Edward was still partaking of the brunch, thank you.

He was a bit put off by the relative rags in his younger self's closet, and they didn't fit so well anymore - you could see the tattoos on his skin poking through near the neck and the stomach. But they'd do for now.

He'd be home soon again anyway.

Atton showed up eventually, if late, got a plate full of breakfast foods and soda, and kind of loitered.

Years ago, he would've called this feeling 'being unsure what he was even doing here'. Nowadays, the insecurity had largely worn off.

He was just missing the Temple now, was all.

Isabelle still enjoyed a good Fandom High brunch, no matter what she may have sometimes claimed back home.

She was piling her plate pretty high.

Tables! [Brunch]

[smilestopscars]

Have a seat, take a load off, and relax. Your home reality will still be there when you're done here.

Envy thought she deserved something for managing to pry herself from the hotel room again. So, she had some of the sugariest pastries that the buffet had offered on the plate in front of her now.

She wasn't sure she'd be sticking around for very long, however. Maybe long enough to catch one or two familiar faces.

Cassandra had avoided yesterday's meal; the encounter with Anders had put her ill at ease, and she had needed time to think.

But today she was here, a stern figure sitting at one of the tables, her features sharper than in her childhood and marked with scars. Still thinking, mind you, but she was at least making an attempt to seem less troubled.

Cosima sat down with a muffin and a plate of fruit, and tried not to let herself check in on work on her phone too much. It was hard; Scott had sent her sheets and sheets of data on the latest research into the clones' lung condition, and all she wanted to do was get in there and see what he'd found.

But she'd be social, at least for a little while.

It wasn't a Fandom event if there was no room for lurking.

Anders wasn't properly attending the picnic, but he gave into curiosity during a break from work and stopped by to eyeball the crowd -- and claim some coffee and a pastry while he was at it.

"Anders?" Kathy called in disbelief. "Anders!" She broke into a run over to him, the speed of her passing disturbing several empty cups and paper plates. "I was looking all over for you yesterday," she declared, holding out her hands to him. "I wanted to say hello--to apologize--oh my gosh, you look like you haven't aged a day!"

Re: Edges of the Park [Brunch]

Anders fleetingly wondered if he could make up a story, tell Kathy he'd drunk an anti-aging potion, make up some happy life for his 40-year-old self in Orlais.

He doubted she'd catch him at it. But the lie would have unsettled his stomach, so:

"I'm the same age," he said, apologetically. "The island must not have felt like playing with me this weekend. I get the fun of seeing what all of you are going to look like with wrinkles instead."
