Perks of being a Fangirl

New Kids

So it's Homecoming at my school. Still not sure what the big deal is about American football and the dance. We had a pep rally at my school, and I realized how unfair it was. At my school, it's basically a bunch of contests to find out which grade wins the "spirit stick". It's literally a glorified paper towel roll, but it's still cool to some people. They rig it towards the seniors, since it's their last year in high school. But they also make it so that the freshmen are made fun of. For a school that has a "no tolerance for bullying", they seem pretty fine with making the freshmen feel inferior because they're younger. They basically tell them they amount to nothing because they're new and "little" compared to everyone else. The football team are assholes, as they tear down the freshman's hall decorations. (there's a contest to see who is the best at decorating a hallway. And honestly, the seniors did win fairly this year.)
What if it was different? What if they made it fair, or rigged it towards the freshmen? They would enter high school feeling insecure and completely lost. But then they get this initiation of a sort, and they feel like they fit in. As they go into higher grades, they understand that the freshmen are insecure (because most of the people at my school forget how insecure they were as freshmen and look down upon them) and accept them. But seriously, if you put freshmen against seniors in a tug of war, who do you think is going to win? Not the freshies, that's for sure.

But anyway, headcanons for the new kids of different fandoms.
Headcanons for a perfect world at least.

Not a headcanon: Everyone claps when first years are sorted at Hogwarts.

The beavers help Lucy, Peter, Susan, and Edmund when they first come to Narnia

Firestar welcoming kittpets, new warriors going through that first night silently guarding the clan, how everyone yowls their new name when it's first given

New Roman demigods getting their SPQR tattoo

Headcanons: Seventh years help first years find their classes, like older brothers and sisters. They tell off people like Ron (and I bet Sirius and James did this as well) who called them "midgets" and other names, reminding them of the first time they walked through the doors.

Demi-gods in the Hermes cabin trying to help new kids guess their godly parent. Older campers choosing a new kid and showing them around camp, and teaching them camp fire songs and Greek myths. The new kids older siblings (or younger, just the people who have been there longer) explaining the rules of the cabin, and not having a system of organization based on how long you've been there or how young you are (like making the new campers clean the bathrooms or something)

When Percy or Jason show a new kid around they just show them everything and connect it to some quest, using pop culture characters to explain gods and goddesses
"Yeah that's the Iris cabin. Don't buy her brownies."
"So Khione is like... Elsa if she was evil."
"That's the big houses. Oh, and when the hunters of Artemis visit, don't let my sister tell you I tried to eat the stapler in there. That was once. And a different stapler. "

New shadowhunters getting their first rune, a little nervous, and having an older shadowhunter show them where they got theirs. The older one telling them not to worry.
When the new shadow hunter goes into battle with a demon, no one under estimates them because they're new.

Different initiations for different factions, Amity having a full on celebration for them, Abnegation having the new kids go on their first mission trip, Erudite putting their people in a library and telling them they can read what ever they want, Daughtless has its zip line, Candor having a truth circle with the new kids to practice not hiding anything.

New victors of the Hunger Games going through training their first tributes, and the older victors helping them deal with watching their tributes die (or just suffer if they win) instead of laughing or saying that they must suck as trainers, because they remember when their first tribute died.

Max comforting new experiments, even if she knows they'll die the next day. Fang showing some emotion behind the flock's back when a new kid is especially afraid, and telling them that it probably won't be okay, but someday they'll get out of there, even if it is through death.

The Doctor helping his companions through different time periods and planets that they don't know, (like how ten stops them from making a fool of themselves when they try and speak the language or eleven supporting them when they try)

John telling people that "Sherlock's always like this, don't mind him. You'll get used to it."

Henry welcoming new characters to Storybrooke by showing them their fairy tale and the disney movie based off of it. (Hook was really confused when he watched Peter Pan)

Basically a perfect world that is so much better than our own. :)
