Homecoming 2017, Community Centre [Saturday Evening]
Just when you thought it was time for the island's collective consciousness to maybe move on from the whole sharkicane thing... along came Homecoming! Well, the theme was actually "Under the Sea", but like the Student Council wasn't going to have glitter-encrusted sharks feature heavily in the decorations? Please.
Of course, it wasn't just sharks: there were plenty of glitter-dolphins, and fish, andoctopuses octopi octopodes too. Jellyfish-shaped lights hung from the ceiling, and strategically-placed LED projectors were set up to complete the underwater ambiance.

"Well, good luck with it," Kathy said. "You've got an island of people cheering for you, for the good that'll actually do."
Well-wishes and prayers for Midgard!
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
Midgar, even. Midgard was a different world!
But hey, Reno would take thoughts and prayers at this point, too.
"Better than nothin'," Reno replied, and then smirked a little. "Ain't never been cheered for before. That'll be neat."
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
"I heard there used to be a cheer squad without any sports teams," Kathy said with a chuckle. "I mean, if they're not doing anything anyway, might as well root for a good cause."
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
"Wonder if they travel," Reno mused. "Assuming they're still around, anyway. School still doin' extracurriculars, do you know?"
Not that it mattered much, really, but hey. Small talk.
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
"Hey, fair enough," Reno said, holding up a hand and shaking his head. "Sounds like you had your own heap of shit to deal with, I'll just ask around."
Because... hey. He missed the place. A bit. He wasn't in any hurry to get back to it, but it wouldn't hurt to know, either way.
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
"Ain't like I'm in a bad place for it," Reno agreed, looking around. "So, shop?"

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
"Job's a job," Reno said with the shit-eating grin of a guy who once did a lecture on safe sex out in public entirely to spite some crazy witch who had some kind of hangup against public displays of affection. "Enjoyin' it at least?"
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
"It's actually really fun," Kathy said. "I get a kick out of making the displays and I've got a good deal with the Hobby Lobby for birth control stuff. I could do with a few more employees--" like, say, any "--but I like not being beholden to anybody."
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
"What, students around here too shy to throw a few toys on a shelf?" Reno smirked a little at that. "Though hey, good to know you're hirin'. Maybe I'll keep you in mind if I ever end up in this neck of the woods again."
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
Dite's was actually very nice and rather tasteful. Ish.
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
Reno laughed at that.
"Shit, knowin' teenagers it'd probably just result in nobody ever bein' able to get mail again without people speculatin' what's in the package," he noted. "Which could be hilarious all on its own, granted..."
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
"People won't know if it's a package for them, or a package for their package," Reno snorted. "Shit, if that ain't the most beautiful thing I heard this week, I don't know what is."

...Look, there ain't no way she was curtseying in her old junior prom gown.
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
And also at least in part because it wasn't a half-dead world where people still struggled to grow enough food across most of the planet.
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]
No, Reno. Barney had tolerated you because he appreciated that you wore a suit, and Ghanima liked you because you were a fierce little shit who took all the right things seriously. Probably.
