fandomtownies | Graduation Brunch: The Park, Sunday, mid-morning to mid-afternoon

A banner, the letters wrapped with fresh spring flowers, hung from the trees, spelling out CONGRATULATIONS, CLASS OF 2009! No missing letters or anything.

Spread out across the park were plenty of tables and chairs, some under the shade of picnic shelters, some out on the grass in the sunshine. For those who felt like getting back to nature, there were even red and white checked blankets spread out in a few areas for old-fashioned picnic-y goodness. Lack of ants not guaranteed.

The long table that ran along next to the picnic shelters was laden with a vast ~~moddable~~ array of traditional brillig-y food, including fruit, veggie snacks, breakfast pastries, sandwiches for the especially hungry or those who arrived more toward the unch end of brunch, and a wide variety of J,GoB-catered desserts. Drinks included coffee, tea, juices and soft drinks, and while there were plates provided, there were also wee picnic-basket-shaped trays for carrying things back to your seat, wherever that might be.

A space had been cleared for dancing, if people cared to do more than just listen to the light music being played through the speakers, and there was also an area set aside for outdoor games of croquet, horseshoes, or frisbee.

Everybody's welcome. Come celebrate with the Class of '09!

[OOC: ~~Wait for the OCD. Don't make Eliza Doolittle have to cut a bitch.~~ OPEN! And no one had to get cut! It's a good day!]

"Piper, hey." Mac grinned, "Thank you. Kind of thought this day would never come," she admitted.

"I remember feeling that way once," Piper grinned. "By the way, Veronica sends her well wishes, too."

Mac smiled, nodding happily at that. "I'll have to call her sometime, let her know I survived graduation, and everything."

"I'll actually be back out in California soon, so I might get to drop in on you guys a bit more."

"Oh yeah, you definitely need to plan a trip to the hotel," Piper grinned. "We'd love to have you."

"Well, I'm in Neptune for the summer," she said, smiling as she picked at her salad. "And I've got an offer from Caltech, that... I, kind of accepted last week, which puts me even closer in September. If everything works out, anyway."

"Caltech? That's great, Mac," Piper said, proud of her friend. "We're only one dimension over."

"Short hop by Fandom standards," she agreed with a laugh.
