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!

Jaina's first thought was that the appropriate response was not "I will kill you, whore."

"Of course, you realize he might not be comfortable with that, all things considered," Jaina said. "Girlparts in proximity. Ew."

"Well," Nancy eyed her. "It's not like he's never seen them before."
solo_sword: (oh?)

Jaina considered this, not sure she wanted to ask, but unable not to. "Oh?"

Obviously he hadn't seen butch Jane's bits. "Yeah, we were a thing there for a while before he came to Fandom. But naturally John didn't say anything. He is so tight-lipped."

Jaina really wished she could say she was surprised, but oddly, she wasn't. There was however a vaguely sick feeling a sudden urge to get tested for a lot of things.

"I hear tight-lippedness comes with shame," Jaina told her, deciding she was done even being fake nice. "Okay, look, you little skank, you're not even funny anymore. You're old news and the fact that you're still acting like this is downright pathetic. I actually, literally pity you for it. And if John, I don't know, hit his head hard enough to ever decide you were even a vaguely good idea anymore, I'd lose all respect for him. And in conclusion, you are really lucky I've learned impulse control or you'd have been in the clinic since Thursday."

With that, she spun on her heel, heading back the way she'd come. For some strange reason she suddenly wanted to be here even less.

Nancy was confused, and possibly feeling played, calling after Jane, "Aren't you a lesbian?"
