Parents' Weekend Meet & Greet! - Friday Afternoon
Hopefully, everyone in Fandom was ready for their guests, because everything was ready for the guests at the park. The weather was behaving (although it still wasn't fall, grumble grumble) and there was a tasteful amount of glitter around the food and decorations. The banner, however, was all glittered out as hung over the entrance:

So, that plan was going well. Or poorly because this was all terrible to watch.
Mistakes were made.

"Why wouldn't he be?" asked the tall black man sitting next to her, looking somehow too straight of spine and too childishly earnest to be here, all at once, as if he was displacing the air around him. "Maybe Lucy has even missed us."
Linda cleared her throat. "He did make it clear he wanted a clean break from... LA."
"It's just a... a phase he's going through, Linda. He's been calling you, hasn't he?"
"Yes. Mostly to inform me how well he's been doing without... LA."
"So there you go! He'll be so happy to see us!"
Linda let her expression do the talking.

Of course, this whole plotting and planning for the least interaction possible would likely be shoved way to the side once she got around to actually recognizing a few of those faces in the crowd that she was intending to mildly glare at.

had literally been just about to ping himhad noticed him long before she'd noticed even her own father here, but she was still working that on out, because this one was definitely much weirder. It helped, though, that Holt would be here on a strictly professional level. So that, at least, made this easier. "Are you actually here?"It was Fandom. It was weird. She felt it wouldn't hurt to check.
Re: Food and Drinks [PW 2019]
Holt was delighted to see her looking so well! He was downright blubbering over it.
"Is there a reason I shouldn't be, Detective?"
This was Holt blubbering, yes.
Re: Food and Drinks [PW 2019]
There was a pause.
"But it's good to see you."
Look at them. Now she was blubbering, too. They were causing such an embarrassing scene.

Miguel had also been planning on minimal interaction; unfortunately Gabriel was - ugh - a bit of an extrovert when he felt like it.
So here, have Miguel and a dorky guy in goggles.
"Hey, Rosa."
Re: Food and Drinks [PW 2019]
Rosa's attention shifted, took in Miguel, took in the guy that was with him.
"Hey," she said, quirking her chin up, then cocking her head toward the other guy. "Who's this?"
She felt she could make a pretty good guess, though.
Re: Food and Drinks [PW 2019]
"Hey!"

Of course, once she had her plate of food, she was right back to glowering.
Nobody mind the grumpy-looking teenager with the jagged scar across half her face making her way through the selection of food Fandom had to offer. "Mira," she said, turning to her sister and practically shoving a piece of pizza at her. "You've got to try this- whatever it is."
Re: Food and Drinks [PW 2019]
"Oh, hi," she said with a little wave. "Are you Jules's guests?"
Re: Food and Drinks [PW 2019]
The few letters she'd managed to exchange with Juillenne had mentioned Keyleth, but hadn't included much in the way of physical description.
Re: Food and Drinks [PW 2019]
"I'm Keyleth, her roommate. She's talked about you two before, so I recognized Mira's name, and . . ." She gave them a bright, if slightly wavering, smile. "Hi?"
Re: Food and Drinks [PW 2019]
(The 'Queen' on Arsinoe's was scratched out with Sharpie)
"Her letters did mention you," Mirabella said with a nod. "She said you're- not quite a naturalist, but similar enough, in some ways?" The letters hadn't mentioned that antler crown though. Or the ears.

Apparently he was just going to take a whole tray of something. Look, did you want Wookiee fur in your finger foods?
Re: Food and Drinks [PW 2019]
The Translator, a person of indeterminable gender in crisp white clothes, including gloves, looked quite excited as she made her way towards the table. The expression briefly turned to disappointment when she had assessed the options.
"Why is there no fish sauce?"
This disappointment faded a little when she found a pizza slice, which she somehow managed to eat while keeping her gloves without a stain.
