fandomtownies | Graduation Weekend Brunch | Early Afternoon | Sunday

With the ceremony completed and the graduated officially done with their high school careers, a brunch had been planned to celebrate the occasion and allow graduates, their guests, and the other inhabitants of the island to enjoy some good food and good conversation outside. The weather was warm and the sky was clear.

Fraser had been busy helping set up since the early morning hours. Apparently, Dean Stinson had gone a little overboard with some of the food, particularly the cake. The huge sheet cake arrived via truck and, where Fraser thought he'd be able to carry it, ended up having to use a forklift to get it to the park. From there, it took several people to lift the cake onto a table of its own. It was that big. Fraser hoped everyone enjoyed and hoped everyone was prepared to take a lot of cake home.

There were also several other tables of food and drinks, ready to be enjoyed. There were tables and chairs situated around the park, covered by tents to keep it from becoming too warm.

And there was cake. Please don't forget the cake.

"I could be." Katchoo grinned up at her -- yes, grinned, and that might not be helping the creepy -- and flung a handful of grass back. "If I was, do you think I'd tell you? I'd just let you figure it out on your own."

Seriously not helping the creepy.

"Don't say that," she half-warned, half-laughed. "I'm one of the few that could figure that one out in a snap."

She specialized in possession, after all.

Well. Couldn't have this conversation be entirely easy, could they? It would feel less rewarding somehow.

"I know you could. 's why I'm not worried."

Not that she realized the specialization; she just had a feeling Ino could.

"You're in a creepy good mood," Ino laughed. "First you're smiling and everything and now you're complimenting me? Will wonders never cease?"

She wasn't really going to explain how she could tell though. Easier to just skirt over it.

. . . yeah, and Katchoo wasn't likely to pry that way, either. It worked out all around.

"They won't cease, if people don't stop asking that question," Katchoo intoned. "So what if I'm in a good mood? Call it an off day, and don't tell anybody you noticed."

"Noticed what?" Ino asked brightly. "I haven't noticed anything. I am as empty-headed as a butterfly."

A beat.

"And I totally don't mind a good mood. It's better to be in a good mood, right, than not?" It was easier, at least, for her to be in a good mood the more she talked.

And being in a good mood wasn't as difficult as Katchoo liked to make it out to be sometimes.

"Eh, if beggars can't be choosers, why the hell not?" Katchoo, still cheerful although she dropped the freakishly overt grin, flicked another handful of grass at her, which only served to create a lame confetti-like effect. "And what did the butterflies ever do to you to get insulted that way, huh?"

Ino just laughed and tossed a bit of grass back. As useless as it was to try since grass was a very poor projectile.

"It's not an insult, not really," Ino said, wrinkling her nose cheerfully. "They're pretty, they can fly, and some of them are deadly. More than meets the eye."

"A swarm of monarchs in the middle of the highway would screw you up pretty bad," Katchoo conceded.

Grass, for the record, was crap for ammunition.

"Never underestimate the pretty ones. Moral of the story."
