Support Services Meeting: The Park, Friday afternoon

Since Francine was still with her family, Morgana was by herself at the picnic tables today when everyone started to arrive.

"Good afternoon," she said in greeting. "I believe we can all agree that we would like to be prepared for whatever dangerous situations this place might choose to throw at us. We've done well in readying ourselves so far, but the problem remains that we cannot always know what to expect. I thought perhaps we could take our time today to talk about some of the things we've already gone through?" she suggested. "I'm certain that I haven't heard half of Fandom's stories, and I believe that the more information we all have, the better."

"Like...everyone at support services here or everyone on this island here?"

For someone who went around and made sure she talked to every newbie in sight at the picnics, it was a legitimate question.

"Everyone on the island here," Layla explained. "It's always good to know who is and isn't on my radar. So to speak."

"Isn't it helpful to just have everyone on your radar, though?" Turtle asked. "Or, well, okay, I guess I can see that, too," No, she didn't. "I have some people a lot more on my radar than others, I'll admit."

"Already thinking about student council?" Layla teased.

"Dude," Turtle said, "I've been thinking about this election since last year. This is the big one, Layla. Senior year. Presidential run. HUGE."

"Well if I wasn't a junior, you'd have my vote," Layla shrugged. "I'm not really big on student government anyway."

It really was a shame that Layla wasn't a senior. Turtle might actually willingly agree that Jamie was hot if Layla was a senior.

"Why not?" she asked.

"I don't know. Just isn't my thing," she replied. "I guess if you know how to fix an election by doing certain actions it takes the mystique out of it."

There was a long sort of pause. The sort of pause that made it very clear that Turtle very emphatically disagreed.

"Oh, man," she said, her eyes wide, "that would make things so much easier. I bet if I could do that, I wouldn't even puke on election day, either."

No, she actually probably would, to be honest.

"Well that's a pleasant thought," Layla said rolling her eyes at Turtle.

"Whaaaaat?" Turtle asked, shoulders sinking. "It's true. I get so nervous, Layla, you cannot believe it. It's the most nerve wracking thing in the world. And I'm so terrified that I'm just not going to know what to do if it turns out that I'm not there..."

"You know what? I think you're turning me around on this government thing," Layla teased. "Because being terrified and getting dry heaves? Awesome stuff."

"Oh, shut up," Turtle said. "Once you get past the dry heaves, it's freaking awesome."

"I know it's important to you," Layla said trying to stifle a grin. "However to me? It's just not my thing."

"Eh," Turtle waved her hand. "Less competition, then, right?"

"Again, junior," Layla smirked. "I can't even vote for you."

"But you can vote for Jennifer!" Turtle easily chirped. "She's running a ticket with me. Well, as easily as you can run a ticket with the system here."

She shrugged. "We'll see. I'll vote for whoever will be the least crazy."
