No.

*chittering*

We've had this discussion before.

*chittering*

It's not 'totally different' if you're 'just storing them'. No fireworks inside the station. If you really want to explode yourselves, do it outside. After you give me the notes.

Let's see, no classes of any kind up at the School, though it was a beach day in the Library, much to Cal and Gray's confusion when they came by to visit Arden.

The Dorms were quiet. Again. While in Town, Adrian was convinced he was being watched at Pick Your Poison, I'd suggest it was paranoia, but I do have all these notes about Rey trying to help him, and Lydia also making an appearance. Speaking of appearances, Raiden was all over the streets hanging up flyers for his new breakfast place. Finally, it was something of a mango theme at Caritas, though sadly, Tino was not a man gone. Summer texted, while Stark was glad Anakin had taken the week off, and Rey was asked for 'jello life choice opinions'.

*muffled explosions*

Outside the station, not outside the booth.

Good morning, everyone, it's Captain Steve Rogers a few days early. Stark--the other Stark--was unavailable today.

Since it's a break week, we're pretty quiet on the island and I can assure you that the park is safe to walk through today. We didn't have classes yesterday, but I am looking forward to seeing everyone back at paintball next week!

In town, Liliana was at the diner for her weekly--

*chittering*

--I am not calling it a "booty call." Her lunch date with Ignis. Stark asked Gladio at the gym for hobby ideas--Tino at Caritas' new hobby is apparently blending things--and gardening is always a good choice too. Pam was helping her plants get through the heat wave. Jaina was in the Perk drinking coffee and reading and both of those would also be hobbies, though in my household drinking coffee is more of a personality trait than a hobby.

Party planning could also be a hobby, and so I hope you all can make it to my party tomorrow. Tony's really gone to a lot of effort for it. Have a great day!

Hey there Fandom, it's me, ya girl, Arden Finch, welcoming you into July by telling you all the cool things that we did to finish up June. Which, judging by the size of this stack, isn't really much? Because we're all on vacation, being beach bums, right?

*chittering*

...Or obsessively listening to a single band on repeat. Thank you, squirrels, very vital for you to have brought that up.

Anyway, With nothing happening in School or the Dorms, it was just stuff in Town that rates a mention. We start with Vi changing back from being a kitten over Pride weekend, and anything that happened between her and Steph after that is their business, not ours. Professor Vess was arguing with a crystal ball in the Infinite Consortium, I guess because she didn't like her fortune, probably? Mystery Sign Theater 3000 was showing What Can A Girl Do? and Mayor Faden came by to catch the movie and tease Mr. Barnes about stereotypes and candy. That's...not a very descriptive note, rodents. Pizza Planet saw Raiden putting in orders for a metric BLEEPton of eggs and potatoes....I'm guessing for his new breakfast place? But that's just a guess, there's a holiday coming up, he might be making a kiddie pool's worth of potato salad.

*chittering*

No, I have faith that Raiden wouldn't put raisins or blueberries in his potato salad. He's a Nephilim, not a monster. Professor James Stark bought out the last of the Pride pastries and brought them to the Clinic nurses, and Officer McGarrett was looking at emails at the Trooper Station. The squirrels are making a big deal about him not answering any, but who amongst us has not read an email and decided to just deal with it all later. I click mine back to 'unread' so that it stays at the time of my email. Also, if I get too many unread emails, I start getting twitchy. Fun Finch Facts that nobody asked for! And, lastly, Tiny was making drinks with sparklers in them, and Mr. Northman was nearby with a fire extinguisher to make sure that Devil's Nest didn't end up burning down.

And that's it for this radio! So long Fandom, this is ya girl, Arden Finch, leaving you with How It's Done by Huntr/x! Have a great day!

pocketpretzels

Hello from Greece, where apparently even being on holiday does not absolve me of my duties regarding the news.

The entirety of which is centered around yesterday's Pride Parade in Town, organized by our own wonderful Miss Stephanie Gingrich.

There was a spot for folks to get ready, followed by the parade itself, full of decorated rickshaws and marchers. And of course along the route there were spots to observe the proceedings, which Stark, Steven, and I took advantage of. And of course following all that there was the Post-Parade Park Picnic, which the squirrels would like me to ask you to 'say five times really fast'. Naturally, given that the picnic boasted cupcakes, Stark was there to partake.

And that's all that was noteworthy about yesterday, I'll see you next week.

imafuturist

I've got to make this quick, we're expected in New York shortly.

So, let's get through the main news of yesterday, the Pride Festival. Over where people could gather up and mingle, Steven and Watts complimented the set up and took some pictures for it. In the business area, Stark and Steven talked about upcoming classes. I had a booth set up to give away some merchandise and Steve was so kind to get me drinks and food to survive the day. Don was disappointed in the selection, I promise that there will be more next year. Stark also checked things out after complimenting the dog. Raiden had his pizza place and the new breakfast place represented with Stark checking in about pairing the mimosas with the pizza. Steve got his previously mentioned treats there too. There were also some games to enjoy, like how Steve... other Steve and Danny did. Oh, and the stage too! But I think the heat kept things low key.

But I really do have to run. Have a good one, folks!

sith_happened

What am I--fine, fine, I'll do it, stop jumping on me!

This is Anakin Skywalker. Miss Lydia Bennett is indisposed this morning and so I am here to report on a party I didn't even go to.

*chittering*

No, that's not actually "very helpful" of you. Let's get through classes first, though, shall we? Dr. Blake took the First Aid students through a simulated mass casualty event and Galactic Travel class went to Alderaan.

*awkward pause*

I'm sure they enjoyed that.

*chittering*

No, it's lovely! I just haven't been there in a very long time.

In non-party town news, Rey and I were chasing a porg around her warehouse in a very dignified way and Watts took a break from work at the station for pasta salad with Steven.

*excited porg sounds* And Henry was in a common room.

*sound of massive pile of papers falling over*

Sithspit. There go the party notes. For those of you that aren't aware, Liliana and Ignis threw a garden party in celebration of their engagement and approximately half the island showed up, so strap yourselves in for five minutes of me trying to make small talk sound fascinating.

*chittering*

I do not find small talk fascinating. It's part of why I didn't go to the party. The other part was Christopher's baseball game. Liliana praised Gladio for wearing a shirt to the party and Ignis told Gladio about a box he could use to stuff Prompto into. That's more fun that small talk and I was never allowed to stuff boring Senators into boxes, which would've livened up receptions considerably. Prompto and only-youngling-at-the-party Noctra congratulated Liliana on her engagement and Ignis caught her--Noctra, not Liliana--before she could inflict plant-based injury on herself. Liliana gave Summer the heads-up that Rey wanted to go shopping, and Summer told both members of the happy couple how glad she was not to have to keep the engagement ring a secret any longer. Speaking of Rey, she was there to compliment Summer's dress, and so was Stark.

Liliana asked Arden how she chose the music at the end of her broadcasts, and Arden complimented Ignis on the air at the party, which is definitely a compliment I've never heard before. Lydia told Arden about her sister Mary's wedding, Liliana told Stark she didn't think the administration would let her teach hands-on necromancy and this is absolutely correct, don't do that, Ignis insincerely welcomed Stark and that made him wonder if he should stay to Rey.

Eleanor was praised for her participation in the ethics class and congratulated Ignis, Arden came over to cringe about how she'd complimented the air, and Lydia told Eleanor that today is her birthday and now I see why she's not here. Rey's dress met with Liliana's approval, and Rey complimented Ignis on how nice everything looked, a mistake she realized three seconds after saying it. Luma chose small talk with Liliana and Ignis and Lydia. Liliana gave Lydia birthday diamonds--

*chittering*

--something I'm being assured is not normally a thing, and was also greeted by Ignis and Rey, who complimented Lydia on her ability to blend in at a party. Liliana was pleased to see Don in attendance--so was Ignis, and then flirted with Tony before they worked on planning the party after next week's party. Ignis made sure to check that Tony would be dancing so he could see Liliana and Ignis' new chandelier. Steve and Tony also flirted before Steve made an unseemly dent in the appetizers, and Jack complained about sex pollen week to Liliana before introducing himself to Ignis.

*chittering*

No, that wasn't really a smooth transition, I agree. Deal with it. Stewart didn't understand garden parties but showed up anyway, Steven and Watts were thrilled by vegan food--someone has to be, I suppose--and then Steven tried to explain why he and Watts aren't married to Liliana before saying hi to Ignis and telling Stark about his upcoming trip to Greece. He also told Nell about it. Watts got a history lesson about Liliana's last name before saying hello to Ignis and Stark. Adrian was greeted by Luma and Lydia, Liliana, Ignis, and Rey. Popular guy.

Liz and Prompto talked about getting Noctra to nap, but Liz also complimented the party to Liliana and Ignis. Liliana praised Steve for letting Tony throw him a birthday party, and Steven apologized for missing the upcoming party because he's going to Greece. Liliana wanted Flint to open the bookstore more often, Lana brought congratulatory wine, Hannibal decided that an engagement party was a good time to tell Liliana about his cursed weddings, and Jon's presence reminded Liliana that she should re-teach her self-indulgence class. And Nell's dress matched Gladio's outfit.

And that's finally everything!

*chittering*

What.

*chittering*

And then people danced under the fancy chandelier. There. Now I'm finished.

*chittering*

No, I will not add more "pizzazz." Enjoy the weekend celebrations, everyone.

heroic_jawline

In classes, Liliana learned how many do-gooders she had in her class when she gave them an option to save stranded people, Breakfast Foods got a sneak peek at the menu for Raiden's new restaurant, Hannibal had everyone bring in their signature dishes, we visited Crater Lake with Sam Eagle, and the library was being predictably weird for Belle.

In town, the Museum had a sign to remind everyone that it was air conditioned. Are there places on the island not air conditioned? It's one of the best parts of this century.

...someone check on that cranky bookshop owner. Liz was finding it hard to focus at the Photo Hut, Tony invited everyone to my birthday party, happening the day before my birthday so it doesn't interrupt your July 4th plans, Thor was experimenting with mead--you should try some, it's good--and Vi was stymied in her attempt to help Steph with Pride Weekend stuff by becoming a cat. If I had a quarter for every time that happened here, I'd be pretty well off.

*chittering*

Yes, I am married to Tony Stark. That's not the point.

Finally, Supper Club went for fancy tea in Baltimore. Lydia and Rey wanted to know if the tower of treats would come with a flag on it because we Americans love our flag. They are correct. Liliana offered to give Rey fashion advice and I am not stepping on that land mine, Ignis assured Rey they had everything prepared for today's festivities, and then said the same to Lydia. Flint didn't seem thrilled to learn that tea like this was aristocratic, and then Ignis and Liliana were being, and I quote, 'schmoopy', which I believe is their right. Flint and Rey were formal and awkward at each other, and Flint told Lydia that the delights of afternoon tea would be wasted on his colleagues in Nassau, and then his pocket was mysteriously filled with a flask that Liliana had nothing to do with.

That seems like a suspicious sentence, but I'm not looking into it further. See you all at the party!

wrongkindofsith

*chittering*

No. Not really.

*chittering*

I actually thought you'd decided to stop bothering me. Sadly, I'm not that lucky.

Let's see, the only School news, was Shenanigans, where 'sharing was chairing', where the voluntolds had to share an increasingly smaller number of chairs. I'm sure it all ended in tears, or random passers-by being flung at Anakin. Possibly both.

Nothing much for the Dorms, while in Town, it was date night at the boarding house, and at Caritas ice-cream jello was the flavour of the day. In between the usual nonsense on stage, Atton was quite negative about the jello theme, which might be why Summer sought reassurance from Rey, Stark was mostly relieved there were no horrors, and Stewart was there.

Good morning, it’s Wednesday again and I’m here and -

*chittering*

And the squirrels would like to complain to island management about the heat. They wouldn’t have to deal with it if they weren’t running around spying all the time. They could just stay somewhere nice and cool and they do this to themselves.

So, let’s just read the notes before the squirrels melt. I don’t think they can really melt. They’re being very dramatic. So. Notes from the school. Gladio joined me for Finding New Hobbies and we learned about camping and Cup Noodle™. Thor brought his Norse Life students to a feast with singing. Everyone ended up very colorful during The Wonderful World of Art because Aphra and Isabela had everyone throwing dyed water balloons at each other. And in Paintball! there were buckets of ice water to go with the paint and Arden won our final game.

Nothing from the dorms for yesterday and the porg would probably be upset but I think he’s hiding from Anakin right now? Or swimming? Perhaps both.

In the town poor Kitty had to deal with Tino as usual and with the zombie band playing songs about heat. I’m sorry, Kitty.

Steph went around town putting up posters about Pride this weekend. A festival and a parade. Good. I like those. Both of those.

And Tony was trying get more things to hand out for Pride and telling Steve about it and promising to ogle him. Right.

That’s all I have from yesterday for today. I have to do a better job avoiding Anakin today than I did last week. I hope you all can do the same.

afraid_of_marshmallows

Gooooood morning Fandom! It's ya girl Arden Finch here, reminding you that next Tuesday is the first day of July, which means, the end of - official - Pride. So get your Pride on over the the next week if you haven't yet!

Moving on from warnings of tomorrow to news of yesterday, we kicked off the final week of this summer session in School! Teamwork had us write bitchy letters to people or an institution that made us mad, and then share our letters with someone else so they could help us bitch it up a notch. I wrote to Callista but then I shredded it. Creative Problem Solving had people composing...love songs to Dean Skywalker?! And then lip-synching to them again???! Wow...that sounds like a Wednesday Shenanigans he just couldn't find a way to incorporate slime into.

*a long pause*

Please don't take that as an idea, sir. [BLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP] Uh, anyway, uh, then National Park Adventure Team got to go to the Golapagos Islands!

No notes from the Dorms and I've decided it's because there is fly paper over all the doors and windows preventing squirrels from getting in. Tune in next week to see what bizarre reason I can make up!

Some notes from Town, starting with Professor Vess at the Infinite Consortium debating what class to teach next session. There were...tentacle...things...at the Magpie Emporium. This note gives no more detail than that so watch out for tentacle things? [BLEEP], that woulda been a way better reason than fly paper. It was National Pink Day at Turtle and Canary, but Professor Smith didn't notice because she was busy with Rage...Fest...? Okay, y'all squirrels really need to get with the contextualizing details please! Professor Argentum was debating over his best pictures from Friday at The Photo Hut, and Officer McGarrett was making all the troopers at the Trooper Station take a cybersecurity training while he...also did the training. Yup! Everyone was appreciative of the AC at the Clinic - aww, it's not that hot yet, y'all!

*squirrelly chittering, including a word that sounds suspiciously like HVAC*

Listen to me you little rodent hooligans, you keep your mouths shut about stuff you're supposed to keep your mouths shut about, or else Leroy won't be the only one with a picture on the back of a milk carton, we clear?

Aheeeem, ANYWAY, we finish up our broadcast with Mr. Northman being shirtless at the Devil's Nest, when Professor Fel came in and learned about Shirtless Mondays. And Thursdays. Because that's how we roll on Fandom Island.

And that's it for me, folks! So this is ya girl, Arden Finch, signing off with one last Pride anthem for y'all to enjoy: We Are Family by those icons, Sister Sledge. Bye!

Lydia: Good morning, everyone, and I see that we have quite a stack of notes–

*chittering*

Lydia: What? That was yesterday? I missed a party?

*more chittering*

Lydia: Why should it matter whether I know her or not?!

*door opening and closing*

Tony: …wait, what day is it?

Lydia: Good morning, Mr. Stark. I’m reasonably sure it’s Saturday.

Tony: Shi---oot. I'm not normally kidnapped by these reprobates until Sunday. But I'm here and… wow, that's a pile of notes.

( Beach Party Radio )

heroic_jawline

Good morning, everyone, it's Steve Rogers with the news.

In classes, Art of Breakfast made hash browns and home fries, Ethics talked magic and technology--one of Tony's favorite arguments--we went to a giant Kentucky cave in National Parks, Philosophy of Food talked economics, and there was a summer reading display at the library, complete with sand and gremlins in lounge chairs. No word on if they were in swimwear, so I'll leave that mental image to your imaginations.

In town, Liz was unpacking boxes at the Photo Hut, Jack was working out with his lightsabers, Watts and Steven talked anniversary vacation plans, and Ignis and Liliana have invited all of us to a party next Friday, so clear your calendars. Luma was exploring the colors of nail polish available at Pixie Dust, Stewart worked on his set list for Summer's party today, and Thor celebrated Juneteenth with red drinks.

The Supper Club went to the Lobster Hut--

*chittering*

I did so pronounce the "r". Rey and Lydia congratulated Liliana, Adrian told Rey about how the island hated him and was punishing him through terrible music, and Rey and Lydia agreed that the dean should never ever have a lava-based Wednesday event. Liliana and Ignis talked about Summer's invitation to RageFest, Adrian and Ignis discussed Adrian's excess of produce--really?

*chittering*

You make it sound like a euphemism that way.

Rey and Lydia also congratulated Ignis, Lydia was surprised that Adrian's cat didn't come with him to get fish, and Captain Flint made it very clear that he wouldn't be wearing a bib for anything. This led to a discussion about laundry with Lydia, why Flint had thrown Beaker around on Wednesday, and how a bib would ruin people appreciating Liliana's...assets.

*chittering*

I know what you wrote. I'm not saying it. Adrian assured the captain that he was quite formidable and the island's sense of being afraid of people is just broken. On that happy note, I'm out of notes. I'm grilling at Summer's beach party, though, so come down and say hi, okay?

sith_happened

Good morning, it's Anakin Skywalker, here to speak accurately of the glories of yesterday's teambuilding.

*porg noises*

And to reinforce that porgs are not for throwing, even if they get into a bucket on a raft? Porgs should be more careful.

*sulky porg noises*

We met at the pond yesterday where four teams of four had to pass an object from one raft to another without falling off and while wearing attractive thematic shirts. Vi and Steph made a side bet about which team would do better. Then everyone participated, throwing balls, shoes, rubber chickens, and Beaker. But not the porg, so thank you, Quinn. Congratulations to Cowboy Raccoons--

*chittering*

--and the squirrels say the raccoons are prepared to make you very fair offers for those shirts if you are looking to part with them.

Arden had her own personal raincloud in the library, but it didn't get any of the books soggy.

In town, Quinn was checking to see if the dog toy she'd picked up at Shenanigans was cursed--probably not--Adrian was definitely being cursed with the constant repetition of 'It's a Small World'--

*'It's a Small World' being played for ten minutes*

No one asked for that, Intern Porg. No one.

Finally, at Caritas, the night included karaoke, one of which was just screaming, which might be better than 'It's a Small World', but probably not.

*chittering*

Taylor Swift is definitely better than both of the other options. Liliana stopped by to wish Summer an early happy birthday and to invite her to something called RageFest, Jack brought Summer 'space booze', which is a very broad category, Stewart brought her a non-space booze gift, I am assuming, and Stark voluntarily drank a pickle shot.

And that's everything. I'll see most of you in ethics class.

stykera

Good morning, it’s Wednesday, again and I’m here, again.

We’ll start with the school, again. We went looking for birds during Finding New Hobbies. Thor took his Norse Life class…boar hunting. All right. The Wonderful World of Art made jewelry. Hmm. That could be a hobby, couldn’t it? And Summer won at Paintball!

I have nothing from the dorms but a few notes from the town. Ignis was at Luke’s with his own specials this week, not generic ‘fancy’ ones. Liliana visited, as always, and complained of being cold after hunting boar with Thor.

Gladio had a new flavor of Cup Noodle™ in his machine at the gym. I didn’t know it came in pickle flavor. Probably better than the pickle tiramisu from Raiden…but the pickle pizza is good. Right. Nell stopped in, as she usually does.

And at Pixie Dust, Boc was enjoying all of the parasols. Those are…
*chittering*
Oh, the pretty fancy umbrellas.

That seems to be all for today from yesterday. Good luck avoiding Anakin.

afraid_of_marshmallows

Hey there island! It's me, ya girl, Arden Finch, wishing you all a bright and cheerful Tuesday morning. It's June, it's Pride, we're more than halfway through the first summer semester, and Juneteenth is in two more days, let's go!

Starting at the School because I'm not sure what will happen if I deviate from the chosen template, possibly a squirrel riot, Creative Problem Solving had to...shove a banana in a bottle, according to this note, and from the way the squirrels are snickering, I have no idea how accurate that summary is. The Art of Conversation acknowledged that nobody liked small talk, and wanted to know what people did like to talk about instead. At least, the people in the class, anyway. And National Park Adventure Team got to visit Ras Muhammad National Park in Egypt, where snorkeling and scuba diving were on the agenda. It was dope, actually.

The expected number of notes in Dorms, so onto Town. Professor Vess was looking at some word that is heavily scribbled out here at the Infinite Consortium, and Professor Smith brought her cat into Turtle & Canary, much to the canary's dismay. Wait, is there an actual canary in there? And a turtle? Damn. The more you know, I guess. At the Photo Hut, Professor Argentum did some tidying and reshelving before settling in to work on photos, which, y'know, tracks with where he is. Magpie Emporium had Vi digging through the inventory for her homework, and Professor James Stark was in the Clinic being taunted by the crab. Um. I'm sorry? And, finally, over at the Trooper Station, Officer McGarrett was looking around the office "very sus." That is, of course, a direct quotation from my notes.

But that's also it for my notes, so this is ya girl, Arden Finch, signing off. Gotta go kick Cal's butt in Paintball today. It's my day, I can feel it! Have a good day yourselves, folks, and enjoy Honey by Kehlani. Bye, island!

pocketpretzels

Good morning. It is Monday once again and thus you are hearing from me once again.

The action yesterday was, I'm sure you're all shocked to hear, all taking place in Town, with Mrs. Argentum and the Little Miss were making a Father's Day breakfast for Mr. Argentum, and they- Mr. and Mrs. Argentum, that is, the Little Miss mostly being focused on the pancakes, solid show of priorities right there- discussed what they ought to do to celebrate the day. Mr. Boc stopped by J,GoB for his usual cinnamon roll, and was confronted with questions from the staff regarding his plans for Father's Day. A gambit that ended rather awkwardly as Mr. Boc does not have a father. I also grew up without a father, so you're in- well, you're in company, Mr. Boc. Suppose whether it's good is entirely subjective.

Stark was in the park. *squirrely chitters* Yes, thank you, I'm aware that was a rhyme. I'm sure no one's ever pointed that out before. Continuing on, I stopped to chat with him about my plans for lunch. The squirrels are giving me judgemental looks for not having a 'juicy' conversation, whatever that means.

At the Stark-Rogers residence, Mr. Rogers was concerned about Mr. Stark, and eventually coerced him out of his laboratory for a meal.

And that, everyone, is all of note that happened yesterday.

mustbeawitch

Good morning, everyone, and welcome to another Saturday of the news as presented by the drunken squirrels who spy upon us all. It's fine. It's perfectly fine. I remain Miss Lydia Bennet, here to read said notes to the best of my ability given the squirrels' atrocious handwriting.

Let's begin, shall we, with the school, where Relax and Chill took naps, whilst Galactic Tourism visited Hoth, which is so cold Mr. Rand complained. Dr. Blake talked with his First Aid students about what to do when the situation is rather unexpected.

We've no notes for the dormitory; the porg and I have talked about this; on to the town, where Miss Zarrin was I'm sure hard at work at Plant Parenthood, whilst at Turtle & Canary a celebration of some sport with a soft ball was ongoing. At the Trooper Station, Detective Watts was confronted by quite a lot of oranges, and Mr. Grant planned to take some of them home with him after luncheon. At her warehouse, Miss Skywalker was likewise faced with a plague of round objects, but hers were not delicious oranges but rather "ping pong balls," which are apparently plastic, and which she warned Dean Skywalker of, lest he slip and fall and break a hip. Lastly, Mr. McGarrett was at his home looking for food, which I should certainly hope he has, and Mr. Williams wanted to discuss his activity levels. Apparently Mr. McGarrett was upset he was not chosen for Dean Skywalker's Wednesday madness, and I cannot imagine why. I'm not sure I shall ever get the stains out of that dress, and that's with magic.

That is the last of my notes, dear listeners, so I shall bid you farewell until next week. Remember: avoid the park on Wednesdays if you value your clothing!

wrongkindofsith

*sounds of porgly excitement and also fireworks*

Not inside! Who even gave those to you? How did you set them off without thumbs? Why am I even trying to understand this?

At least you didn't set the notes on fire. Or anything else considering the fumes.

Up at the School, the Library was decorated for Halloween, confusing both Gray and everyone listening.

Meanwhile Shenanigans involved a greasy pole, and free Moobyland as s prize, truly a puzzle as to which was the worse option. Though for some bizarre reason one of the Steves was in the stands and very sad about missing out, the voluntolds prepared themselves, and not even the horrors were enough to stop the inevitable flirting. And then there was the Pole, were only a few, namely Jaina, Eleanor, non sad Steve, and Vi, made it across to claim their dubious prize, though Lydia did get a pair of water wings out of it. Not that I have any idea what they are, but I'm assuming they also lack basic dignity. Also, Belle did not hug Anakin.

Over in the Dorms, put that firework down, or rather just outside them Lydia's walk of shame crossed pasths with Charlie's walk of no shame. Good for them, I guess.

In Town, Pick Your Poison was decorated for Christmas, just to spread the confusion around. Rey offered to help Adrian undecorate, while Lydia wanted henbane for 'non poison reasons', and why do I have a random parchment that reads 'don't eat the nutbread, not even once' mixed in here? Prompto gave his child a camera at Furnado. Harley did her washing and Mark was there. Everything was butterfly themed at Caritas, including the singing. Rey appreciated the colours, Atton was there, Stewart did not bring suspicious brownies or dubious nutbread, but Stark did bring cupcakes.

stykera

Good morning. It’s Wednesday again and I’m here again because this is one of the things I do every week and have done for years now.

Let’s start with the school where in Finding New Hobbies we drew or colored. In Norse Life they played a game called…what?

*chittering* A game called hunh-something? I don’t know. A strategy game of some kind. In The Wonderful World of Art they watched a movie about…I’m not sure. The squirrels don’t seem to be either. And in Paintball Cal won again and the floor was lava but not really lava because Anakin was not in charge.

Nothing from the dorms and the porg is sad like he usually is so it’s time for the town.

Ignis was late to the diner and the staff put fancy specials on the menu because they didn’t think he was coming at all. Liliana came to visit, as usual.

Gladio had a gremlin in the claw machine at the gym and Summer did not want gremlin flavored noodles. That seems wise. Nell was there for a swim. Good idea. A nice warm pool and not the freezing ocean. Nell was also in her shop and in a very good mood. At Pixie Dust Boc was baffled by jelly shoes. Wait, what? You can’t make shoes out of that. Can you?

Charlie didn’t have anything made of jelly at Groovy Tunes and was listening to a song called ‘The Point.’ And at Caritas Kitty had to duct tape a zombie arm. Repeatedly. I’m sorry, Kitty.

And that was all the squirrels gave me from yesterday for today. Be careful of Anakin. You should always be careful of Anakin.

afraid_of_marshmallows

Hey there Fandom, it's ya girl, Arden Finch, hoping everybody's properly over the nonsense that hit us this weekend. I'm totally not still feeling spiteful about being a forest for the whole weekend, honest.

Anyway, we still had School because we're not about to take it off for something as silly as being other people - or other landscapes! That's quitter talk! Teamwork had us crossing scary bridges, standing on seesaws, and trying to get out of boxes, all of which had to be done as a team. Which makes sense, considering the name of the class. Creative Problem Solving was very quiet due to 'hangovers from people who should know better.' Yeah, no wonder you recognized the signs, you furry, drunken miscreants. The Art of Conversation wanted to talk about the weather all class. That sounds terrible. Luma and Professor Sims managed to have a whole conversation about the weather, while Luma and Mr. Blackwood talked about why small talk exists. Professor Sims seemed to think it was because people liked it. Yeah, I'm gonna go with probably not, Professor. And then National Park Adventure Team visited Beringia National Park, where there was a ton of stuff to do, including whale watching! Guess what I did!

The expected no notes for the Dorms, but Town was busy bright and early this morning. At IX Serendipity Place, Professor Fel returned from being a car, and Professor Solo-Fel managed not to mention it to him for a whole five minutes. Hey, did he turn back with clothes on? Because if he did, I need to speak to the island's manager, what the BLEEP! MCA #0 also had a wakeup, complaining about how Officer McGarrett had eaten all the food over the weekend. Hey, at least you both were still people, okay? Professor Fel gets me. I woke up naked at Selkie Cove, but Raiden rescued me by bringing me clothes and making me an amazing breakfast.

*coughing* ANYWAY, MOVING ON TO PEOPLE ACTUALLY DOING NORMAL MONDAY THINGS! The Infinite Consortium had its usual lunchtime visit from Professor Scientia, who challenged Professor Vess to a guessing game. Why are there smirky emojis all over this note? Professor Argentum was at the Photo Hut sniffing himself and I'm not even reading the rest of this note, we're just gonna go to the next one, thanks. 'Turtle and Canary National Earl Day'? What the BLEEP does that mean? Earls like the name? The rank? The--I'm thinking far too hard about this, next note. Something sane, I hope.

Well, it looks like Ms. Nell spent the morning chasing down expensive flowers at Covent Garden Flowers. I hate that my first guess is that her flowers were suddenly ambulatory today. Because that's something that absolutely could happen here. I'm not sure that it didn't. The Magpie Emporium got the paints and flags out for Pride, with Steph coming by to give the store robot a flag to carry. After his breakfast was delivered, Officer McGarrett went in to work at the Trooper Station, even though the squirrels are firmly convinced he should have stayed home. Sorry, Officer McGarrett, but when even the squirrels think you're being dumb about something, that's probably an important sign. After being a total hero, Raiden opened Pizza Planet while arguing with Castor about the provenance of art. Uh-oh. Professor James Stark asked about everybody's weekend at the Clinic--why would you do that? Fortunately, Mr. Northman was doing the exact opposite of that at the Devil's Nest, trying not to hear anything about Tiny's weekend. Hopefully Ms Blake's text was a good distraction, she was letting Mr. Northman know that she was...trapped in LA? Okay then.

Anyway, that's it for today's notes. This is ya girl, Arden Finch, signing off and leaving you with another song for Pride, Honey by Halsey.

pocketpretzels

Good Morning all, and hopefully everything is back to rights after what from all reports was one of those strange weekends. And speaking of reports...

In the Dorms, Flash the sloth was inching his way across the lobby to the door.

The rest of the action, such as it was, was in Town, with Miss Skywalker unable to hold tools and yet capable of holding an iced coffee. And speaking of coffee, Mr. Jenson was at the Perk with a dog hoping to 'pick up' women. Finally, later in the evening Mr. Lockhart is enjoying some cheese and wine while soaking in a hot tub, before he is joined by Mr. Jensen, whom the notes want to make very clear was sitting 'five feet apart' from Mr. Lockhart.

That's all from yesterday, this is Detective Watts signing off.

imafuturist

*chittering*

What in the actual *BEEP* is happening here? I've been kidnapped again. By rodents.

*angry chittering*

I don't care! I'm not your prisoner!

*door slamming and locking*

This place is so messed up. You all know that, right?

*chittering*

So, if I just read these, I'm free to go. Right? Fine. Bring them on. Let's do these weird notes. In the dorms--you know spying on kids is just messed up--there was a piece of cheese in a common room. What the *BEEP* does that even mean? There was also a sloth trying to make it's way downstairs. Doesn't look like it was getting there anytime soon.

In town, some lady named Padme woke up with Dean and was confused by it. Yeah, welcome to the club. I woke up with Jensen and was viciously assaulted by a dog. Some guys named Steve and Danny talked about punching Nazis and safehouses. Right. Totally normal. Posiedon--now I know these notes are all messing with me--well, Poseidon was on the beach. He got to meet Johnny Splash who is, get this, a shower. Right. So we're all being drugged. That makes more sense, yeah. Stark tried to say hi to the shower guy. Donald Duck and the shower guy got into a fight. Posiedon liked the hat. The little sailor hat deal. This Stark guy also met Donald Duck before not really explaining anything to Posiedon.

In the... mansion in the woods. Seriously, what is wrong with this place? Princess Lili woke up with a game show host named.... Sassy Chap. That just sounds like a messed up code name or something. She eventually ran off to the very specific Arden Woods to try and find some guy named Jack. Jaina found out that her husband was a Jaguar. The car. I'm... sorry? Or congratulations? I really don't know which. Watts and a Steven had strawberry shortcake in some boarding house and somehow that's so normal it seems ominous. There was some masked guy running around town to... fight crime? I really can't tell from this note.

That Padme lady from before ended up at the bar and the bartender there dressed up like her? Okay, I'm glad I didn't find that place now. Anakin apparently knew her and said it wasn't a kidnapping. Which I really don't think is true. Since I'm freaking STUCK IN HERE.

*chittering*

Well, I am. Jaina ended up telling Anakin and Padme about the car thing and how they knew each other. Kind of. Rey who was a Lego... okay, you can't just put that on a note and not explain what the hell it means. But a Lego ordered a drink from Padme and explained that she knew Anakin who looked different. Stark was rightfully confused by the Lego person, but for the wrong reasons. He found out that Anakin was a childhood friend of Padme and that Padme had a lot of experience with being kidnapped. Ahsoka--sure, why not another weird name--had a drink offered by Anakin and a shocked look from Padme. And Jonny ordered a very manly drink.

There. That's all you shoved at me. Can I leave?

*sullen chittering*

Okay. Good. Bye. Try not to get kidnapped by freaking squirrels.

mustbeawitch

Ow! OOOOOWWW! Help! Help! Somebody help me! I'm being attacked by--by filthy squirrels!

*chittering*

What do you mean, 'We do this every Satur--' The squirrels can talk. I can understand the squirrels. Why, I always knew that I was special! And you want me to 'Just read the notes'? I can do that! I'm not much for reading, you know, but some little piffling notes will be no trouble! La, what a lark.

*silence*

*chittering*

I'm reading the notes! Just like you--oh, you want me to read them aloud, into this black thing...squirrels are so very odd. And you want me to say that these are from the school? All right, then. Here we go. Relax and Chill--that's a class? That's a class--watched a film, whatever that is, and Galactic Tourism went to Coruscant. I don't know what a galactic is or a Coruscant, but I hope a grand time was had on tour. Miss Smith and Mr. Rand discussed their familiarity with the place, and Mr. Rand asked Miss Beniko to accompany him to New York for the week end. That's far too far to go for such a short amount of time. I suspect these squirrels of writing nonsense! But I am bound to obey them lest they snatch out all my hair. Lord, I do suffer so. In First Aid Mr. Thor told the students what to do if someone suffers a broken bone, or a shock. I shall simply call for help very loudly.

Those are all the notes from the school, so I shall move along to the--

*chittering*

'Tell them--' Who's 'them?'

*chittering*

People are listening to this?! I--hello, mysterious audience. The squirrels oblige me to tell you that there are no notes from the dormitory, and I believe that very odd-looking bird is sad about it for some reason. There are, however, notes from the town, and I shall read them now in the hopes that my captors will release me. I don't know where George is and why he has not rescued me yet. It seems that a Miss Skywalker was at a warehouse where woodchucks were trying to get into the food. What is it with rodents in this place? Dean Skywalker and Miss Skywalker discussed his daughter before Miss Skywalker went home for an evening with her friend Miss Smith discussing Miss Smith's recent romantic complications. Oh, I do so love a romantic complication! Tell me more!

*annoyed chittering*

These talking squirrels are no fun. Miss Zarrin was hard at work at Plant Parenthood, it seems, whilst Mr. Argentum attempted 'yo yo tricks' at Turtle & Canary. Dr. Quinn found a statue at Needful Things highly suspicious, and at the Trooper Station Detective Watts received a floral arrangement courtesy of Mr. Grant. How odd. Did someone die? No matter, because we've the last note,which says that Captain Flint opened The Ink Spot, and now I'm finished, can I be free?

*chittering*

Thank heavens. I probably have some dreadful rodent disease now.

*sounds of complaining getting fainter and fainter in the distance until a squirrel shuts off the mic*

heroic_jawline

Good morning, everyone! It's Captain Steve Rogers with the news of a much less...well, I'd say 'emotionally heavy' Thursday, but the squirrels are holding acorns like they aren't afraid to throw them, so I'll keep that to myself. Even though it was funny.

*sounds of acorns being thrown*

Quite a start to the day. Let's get to classes. Ethical Dilemmas was given the day off--thank you, Liliana--Philosophy of Food took a quick trip to a museum exhibit in London, and Breakfast Foods worked on mastering pancakes, waffles, and French toast.

In town, Liz was bravely facing down month-end spreadsheets, Luma was expanding her knowledge of the dresses and makeup for sale at Pixie Dust, and Steven stopped work at the museum for lunch and selfies with Watts.

Finally, it was open mic night at Groovy Tunes, with Stewart performing lightning-themed music, Charlie playing Viking songs--like cheers for the football team?--and Jack,after some prodding, playing piano.

And that's everything! Have a good weekend!

wrongkindofsith

That's everything?

*chittering*

Quiet day.

Up at the School, the only things that was happening was Shenanigans down in the park, where Anakin inflicted socks upon the voluntolds, which needless to say certain people used as an excuse for flirting, because they cannot get a room, Stewart was very attached to his 'adorable shark' socks, baffling Hannibal. Then everyone had to balance tanks of mysterious liquid on their feet, to varying levels of success.

Nothing for the Dorms, while in Town, Adrian dipped his wick making candles at Pick Your Poison, while at Caritas, Tino implied there were others like him by claiming it was his brother's birthday, though neither person taking the stage seemed inclined to celebrate. Stark was...awkward, Stewart brought along dubious brownies, and Atton was remarkably judgemental for someone who deals with his problems by faking his death.

*chittering*

Oh, I know I am, but I've never done that.

stykera

Good morning, it’s Wednesday, I hope you all know to avoid Anakin by now but having said that it’s time to talk about what the squirrels have written for me today starting with the school.

My class on Finding New Hobbies made brownies with whatever sorts of things people might want to add to them.
*chittering*
Well, I hope not during class! Norse Life practiced axe throwing and I hope no one had to visit the clinic after it was over. Or while it was happening. The Wonderful World of Art was going to draw people but the only person who was willing to model was Tino so thankfully they had to draw fruit instead. And then there was Paintball! where Anakin probably cheated while everyone else was trying to shoot each other or buckets or both.

Nothing from the dorms, sorry Porg, so we’ll move on to the town.

Nell was grumpy and tired at her shop. I hope she’s all right. Charlie was more cheerful and listening to viking rock, I don’t know what that means, and Stewart approved of her musical choices. I suppose that’s good? Bucky was at the movie theatre with a lot of M&Ms and Jesse came in to visit him at work.

Finally I have that Gladio was at Atlas Gym with a magic treadmill or haunted treadmill or some sort of treadmill that won’t stop. Summer was there to fl- … to work out. And Nell came in to see Gladio and seemed to be doing much better than she was while she was at her shop. Good.

That seems to be all. Be careful of the park and I’ll be back here again next week, I think.

afraid_of_marshmallows

Hey there Fandom, it's me, ya girl, Arden Finch, welcoming you to June and the beginning of summer proper, even if we are already halfway through our first summer session.

Which makes for a good enough transition to talking about School, I suppose! Teamwork had us doing trust falls out on the lawn and there are way too many laughing squirrels around me right now. Creative Problem Solving where the Dean judged everybody's art and then they threw water balloons at people. Especially Cal. Sorry, babe. The Art of Conversation practiced insincere enthusiasm - wow - and National Park Adventure Team where folks got to look for snow leopards or go on a bird and wildflower tour.

No Dorms and very little from Town, it looks like. The Infinite Consortium had its usual lunchtime guest in the form of Professor Scientia, who convinced Professor Vess to leave for vacation after work...on a Monday. Okay then. Vi was working on her art project for class at the Magpie Emporium. And at the Clinic, they welcomed Pride Month with rainbow cookies and crab paintings.

And that's what I've got for notes, so it's ya girl, Arden Finch, signing off and leaving you with the first of our Pride Month songs, Red Wine Supernova by Chappell Roan. Bye!

pocketpretzels

Good Morning Fandom, it's Monday, so once again it is Detective Watts bringing you everything that happened on Sunday.

Which consists of a single note from the Town, where Mr. Boc was indulging not just in his usual cinnamon roll but also a fruit tart. Stark came in and they discussed the idea of learning to cook, which Mr. Boc is quite dead set against.

And that is all there is to say about yesterday's goings-on. Until next week, then.

imafuturist

Oh, just the one? Are you serious? I could be sleeping.

*chittering*

Fine. Fine. Ahem. Hello, this is Tony Stark with the news from yesterday even though I think everyone was busy hiding out after the whole luggage thing. Gray was in one of the dorm common rooms, doing a little retail therapy. Which I never disapprove of.

But that's all there is. So hopefully everyone is feeling refreshed now and ready for the week ahead. And I'm going back home to take a nap. Ciao!

mustbeawitch

Good morning, everyone! It is I, Miss Lydia Bennet, here to bring you all the news the squirrels saw fit to import. You know how this works, or are else rapidly learning, so let's get to it, shall we?

We shall begin with the school, where Relax and Chill broke things, which doesn't sound terribly relaxing to me, but perhaps I am missing something. Galactic Tourism visited "Voss-Ka," which sounds a lovely place. There are shrines, and more importantly, shopping. First Aid learned that some people can fly, and relatedly what to do when someone falls from a great height. My plan is to scream for help very loudly. In non-class news, Miss Vess spent some time in her office, where she was visited by Mr. Anthony Stark.

I am not seeing any notes for the dormitory, so we move along to the town, where Mr. Rand was at the Perk, where he and Miss Vess discussed television programming. So far I have only encountered 'curling,' which is...not to my taste, I think. At Plant Parenthood, Miss Eleanor was considering the classes she missed on Thursday--oh, yes, staying in was very wise of you, Eleanor, I wish I had thought of that--and at the Trooper Station Detective Watts was dealing with some sort of labeling drama before he was joined by Mr. Grant for luncheon. Miss Skywalker tried out a machine that rows for you at her warehouse--

*chittering*

The squirrels say the machine is so that you can pretend to row. Why on Earth would anyone ever want to do that? A sentiment Miss Skywalker echoed to Dean Skywalker, who wanted to place the rowing machine in the lava. I am pleased to see we are all in agreement on the utility of the device, then, and that brings me to the end of my notes. Until next week, dear listeners, farewell!

heroic_jawline

*chittering*

...I didn't realize you had such strong opinions about facial hair. Thank you for the input, but it's my face and I'm going to do what I like with it. Good morning, everyone, it's Steve Rogers with the news of yesterday and to tell you that the rain of bags has ceased. Liliana, Sam, I apologize for my absence in class yesterday, but I was blocked into the tower. Judging by the stack of notes, Tony and I weren't the only ones having problems, so let's get to it, shall we?

In classes, Ethics was having a field trip in the Danger Shop to Omelas, a shining city that isn't so shiny; American National Parks went to New River Gorge in West Virginia; Philosophy of Food had to explain their food choices between several options; and Belle and her 'avoiding home' bag were hiding in the library. Raiden was using his class as market research for breakfast food preferences.

In town, Liz was dodging bags at the Photo Hut, Sabine was doing the same at Wellspring Arms, and Pixie Dust was staffed by a wolf. The squirrels are saying that they weren't getting any closer to find out why there was a wolf as they like to be un-eaten. That's fair. Don was dealing with bullying baggage in his rooms at our tower, where Tony and I were trying to figure out whose bags belong to who in our apartment.

McGarrett and Danny couldn't stop tripping over McGarrett's baggage, Steven told Watts he wasn't letting Marc out today--the bags were annoying, but I don't think it rose to the level of locking your friends up, and I'm sure the sheriff also said so--and Vi and Steph worked a shift together while rather aggressively agreeing that everything was fine as bags showed up. Jaina was in the park working off baggage frustration and assured Stark that he wasn't bothering her, even if his baggage said he didn't entirely believe her. Watts took the opportunity to explain coffee, tea, and what a detective is to Henry as a welcome distraction to the baggage at the Perk.

At the Devil's Nest, Thor and Eric spoke in Ancient Norse--you speak Ancient Norse?

*chittering*

Thor and Eric spoke in a language the squirrels are assuming was Ancient Norse, the baggage followed the Supper Club to Baltimore, much to Lydia, Rey, and Liliana's vocal displeasure, and Illyana, Steven, and Watts threw their baggage off the roof of the boarding house and into portals, where I am assuming for my own peace of mind that they weren't landing on innocent people in other dimensions and knocking them out.

Hope today is slightly less stressful. Have a good one.

wrongkindofsith

No.

*thud*

*chittering*

No. Notes. Now.

Up at the School, Arden napped in the Library while Cal tried not to wake her. Which could have been cute or creepy.

Anakin inflicted rubber chicken tag upon Shenanagins, again. The minglers mingled, while amongst the voluntolds, Kitty felt personally attacked, even though she got picked to hit people with pool noodles, Vi explained her case of deja vu to Flint before flirting with Steph, giving me deja vu, Isabela explained how it was a sex thing to Sam, as you do, while Ignis and Flint considered their lost dignity. And then everyone ran around with rubber chickens on their feet trying to avoid getting smacked with pool noodles. As you do.

AS usual, nothing happened in the Dorms, while in Town, Adrian dealt with an aggressive phone caller at Pick Your Poison while Pamela suggested violence as the solution. Over at Caritas, there were all the limes. All of them, Stark was impressed by tiny pies, while Atton judged the limes, which I guess clears up the zombie clone question.

stykera

Good morning it’s Wednesday again and this week I will be staying far away from the park. I hope. But first I have to read the notes from the squirrels about yesterday. Not too many notes so perhaps I will be able to get back home before it becomes dangerous to be outside.

We’ll start at the school because that’s the order these things are always done in. Finding New Hobbies had me providing plants and dirt and pots so people could do some gardening. There was rowing in a longship with Thor for Norse Life. Students in The Wonderful World of Art made art that was abstract and then had to explain it. And finally there was Paintball, with buckets, and Anakin probably cheated.

I have nothing from the dorms but I do have one note from the town. Kitty was at Caritas a little late and Tino was giving her odd looks which seems unwise since she is the one who pays him.

And that’s all for today from yesterday.

afraid_of_marshmallows

Hey there, Fandom, it's me, ya girl Arden Finch, hoping y'all had a great Memorial Day full of picnics and grilling and neither of those things are barbeque, as a reminder. If it doesn't involve cooking on low heat for many hours, it's not barbeque. I don't make the rules, but I will die on that hill.

Anyway, things were pretty quiet on yesterday because of the holiday. School was still in session, and Teamwork had us fighting in spaceships, which, oddly enough, is a sentence I have not said before on this island. It's weird, it feels like something that should have come up before, but apparently never before, at least for me! Huh. Creative Problem Solving went from showing pictures of eggs - also a sentence I've never said before, but it would have been weirder if I had - to taking pineapple off of pizza, and y'all just don't know what's good, that's the problem here. And Art of Conversation ~~which I definitely saw yesterday and didn't just spot, honest!~~ talked about the art of explaining politely.

No Dorms, which I'm pretending is because of the holiday, but we did have stuff in Town! At the Stark Towerlet, Captain Rogers got ready for his day at Arlington, and then was very happy to be home again with Professor The-Rich-One Stark. Eeesh. I'd say I can imagine, but I'm pretty sure I can't and I'm even more sure I'm glad I can't. The Infinite Consortium got a shipment of poetry books, which somehow made Professor Scientia late for lunch and I'm not asking, and yesterday's Turtle and Canary holiday was World Redhead Day; hope you redheads got your discount shopping on! Professor Argentum was doing some photo editing at The Photo Hut and the Magpie Emporium maybe should have called him so he could help with the egg photo shoot that Vi was doing for class. The repetition didn't make the concept any less weird. Officer McGarrett was also setting up an egg photoshoot at the Trooper Station. Speaking of continuing weird, the Clinic was normal, but normal for it, which involves a possibly malevolent crab, so...yeah. Raiden was in a great moon at Pizza Planet, and, honestly, I think the idea of Raiden not in a great mood is something to be avoided at all costs. Lastly, both Tiny and Mr. Northman were shirtless at The Devil's Nest, and Professor Solo-Fel assured Mr. Northman that the invading mini-zillas were very boring to fight.

...

I don't know if she's just comforting Mr. Northman because he missed it, or this island is full of very weirdly jaded people. Either way, that's my last note, so this is ya girl, Arden Finch, signing off and wishing y'all a great rest of your week. Enjoy the week and this throwback hit, My Oh My by Camila Cabello, ft. Da Baby

pocketpretzels

Hello, Detective Watts here, once again with a single solitary note from Town which this week consists of the fact that Mr. Boc was enjoying his usual cinnamon roll as well as a 'summer themed' pastry, whatever that might be, at JGoB.

Until next week, this is Watts, signing off.

mustbeawitch

Good morning, everyone! It is I, Miss Lydia Bennet, here to bring you yesterday's tidings, now with many fewer giant lizards than last week! I am sure we are all quite relieved.

We begin with the school, where Relax and Chill learned about meditation, and surely no naps were had. Galactic Tourism visited Ilum, where it was cold but apparently quite beautiful, and First Aid learned what to do if you cut a body part off with one of those sabres made of light...or anything else, for that matter. Please no one do that any time soon. And...the rest of my notes seem to be missing. I've nothing for the dormitory, nor for the town. I do hope some of you did something yesterday, and it is merely the notes that are misplaced. Perhaps they are with Leroy, wherever he may be. Well. Now that you know that classes happened, I am off to get a cup of tea. Farewell, dear listeners!

heroic_jawline

Good morning, everyone, it's Captain Steve Rogers with yesterday's news.

Let's start with classes! Belle was in the library supervising gremlins making a collage. It's important to embrace your creative side. Ethical Dilemmas had our first hypothetical question, and if you weren't in the class, well, you should've taken it to know what the question was. We visited St. Louis and saw the Arch in our National Parks class. Philosophy of Food discussed what foods were better served at a dinner party versus a picnic, and The Art of Breakfast learned all about eggs: I prefer mine sunny side-up, which Tony thinks is entirely too perky an order for the morning.

In town, Stewart was playing music at Groovy Tunes, a good place for it, Luma was inspecting Pixie Dust's nail polish inventory, and Prompto delivered Jello and sympathy for Liz's never-ending reports at the Photo Hut. Steph was prepping for a new game release at Magpie Emporium, the Supper Club went out for sushi, Thor was serving mint juleps at the Devil's Nest...does he know that the Kentucky Der--

*chittering*

Oh, good, he knows.

And that's everything for yesterday! Have a great today!

wrongkindofsith

No, he's very worrying, but I'm not worried about Leroy.

He knows what he did.

Up at the School, things were again quiet in the Library, while Shenanigans involved a lot of smile. Because Anakin did in fact take teh advice of tiny children in designing this. Minglers mingled. While Voluntolds prepared themselves, including the two Steves, seeking out their respective teammates Luma and Summer. Not that you can really prepare yourselves for this amount of slime. There was trivia under ominous buckets, rearranging things with your face, and waffles.

The Dorms were still quiet, while in Town, Prompto's hopes of a quiet morning at Furnado were dashed by attempted bird escapes, while at Pick Your Poison Adrian was doing some kind of star maths. Caritas had a pool party theme, though thankfully no actual pools, full of Jello or otherwise were in evidence. Atton's zombieclone auditioned for the band, while Stark was highly dubious about the cheeseburger shot. As he should be.

stykera

Good morning and welcome to another Wednesday where I tell you about Tuesday based on notes from…squirrels who still aren’t Leroy.

We have notes from the school. I took my Finding New Hobbies class to the library to find books and then Steven came to find me there to talk. Thor and his Norse Life class went to fight a giant snake. That’s more exciting than the library but also we didn’t need weapons in there. We did need weapons for Paintball! but not for fighting snakes. Just for shooting each other which we all did and Cal won. Anakin shot me because he is terrible. The Wonderful World of Art watched a movie and yes it was the movie you expect. Unless you don’t know about the movie and then you might not expect it.

The porg is very excited to inform me and all of you that he has a note from the dorms. Henry who is new I think was in his room. Luma who is also new came looking for him and they discussed being out of their own times and Henry thinks he may be dead. He also discussed being dead or being in Hell or both with Gray who had fallen asleep outside his door.

Now we have notes from the town. Gladio had new treadmills that play games at the gym and Summer was there even after Monday night and the…pickles. There were a lot of pickles.
There was also pickle vodka at Caritas and I am curious about what Kitty and Tino came up with but I also don’t really want to know.

Ignis had a lot of chickpeas at the diner and Liliana came for her usual visit and to ask Ignis if he would object if she were poisonous. I…all right.

At Pixie Dust Boc had some newly torn clothing to mend and…I may have something to bring him I should check. Right. Nell had raccoons at Plant Parenthood offering her dogs…all right. I don’t understand why and I hope the dogs are all right.
At Groovy Tunes the squirrels have written ‘maybe Charlie was there or maybe not we aren’t telling.’ Fine.

There were definitely people at Pick Your Poison. Pam was working in the dirt, Watts stopped in to offer bread and take a leaf which the squirrels think was a very bad idea. The leaf not the bread. Harley was surprised to see Pam and they still aren’t the original Harley or Pam that the other knows but they do know each other now and Pam explained where she’d been when she left. And then Adrian asked if he could change the day he works in the shop to Wednesdays instead of Thursdays. Maybe he’s avoiding Anakin. Good luck, Adrian.

Good luck to all of you. That’s all for today from yesterday.

afraid_of_marshmallows

Hey there island, it's me, ya girl, Arden Finch with yesterday's gossip from today's drunken squirrels. Except for Leroy. Has anybody seen Leroy? In...weeks?

I will be so mad if I actually end up giving a BLEEP about that squirrels whereabouts, hand to the goddess.

But before I start looking for him, let's get to the news. Starting in School because I'm scared of what will happen if I go out of order, Teamwork had us trying to order lunch for everybody. Illyana started by asking if anybody had any dietary restrictions, so of course I had to speak up, and then Luma picked a menu, but the Dean wanted something else, and Luma was fine with that. Dean Skywalker continued causing problems on purpose in Creative Problem Solving, where first he judged people's bribes, and then the class had to build a potato bridge, with no word whether the bridge was for or made out of potatoes. With that class, I'm not ruling either interpretation out. Art of Conversation covered starting a conversation with questions, which the class was really good at, apparently, with Luma asking Professor Sims if he liked teaching and Mr. Blackwood asking why Professor Sims kept letting the moose decide what classes he was going to teach. The answer is because it's a moose. Megafauna don't BLEEP around. No word on whether Mr. Blackwood's familiar participated in class, apologies to everyone on CatWatch. And lastly, National Park Adventure Team went to Los Glaciares National Park to check out the glaciers and have an absolutely amazing meal.

There is a shocking zero notes for the Dorms today, so on to Town we go! The Infinite Consortium was itchy today, with Professor Vess upset about mosquito bites, though Professor Scientia asking her not to defoliate the island and Dr. Quinn asking who BLEEPed in her Lucky Charms. Amazing. Professor Argentum was editing photos at the Photo Hut, and Vi was going through the dice bin at the Magpie Emporium for a bribe for class. Fortunately, Steph was there with donuts and a suggestion for terrible dice. Professor Smith was arguing with Mr. Nahasapeemapetilon Turtle & Canary about the day's holiday, and then Mr. De Rolo came to replace his phone, because the last one got...melted? Okay then. The crab was kinda sus at the Clinic, which means it's a day that ends in -y, and Ms. Nell was getting hassled by raccoons at Covent Flowers. I guess they're worried about her Vitamin D levels or something. Everything had pickles at Pizza Planet, and Professor James Stark actually bought both the pickle pizza and the pickle tiramisu. No word if he survived, but the Trooper Station was looking up egg photography - what? - and not a missing persons report, I'm guessing he did? Or no one has discovered him yet, but let's hope for the former.

Speaking of missing persons, I'm not quite willing to go look for Leroy yet, but has anybody seen him? Let me know if you do, okay? Until then, it's ya girl, Arden Finch, signing off. Have a great rest of your day, island, and enjoy Youngblood by 5 Seconds of Summer. Bye!

pocketpretzels

Good morning Fandom, this is Detective Watts, bringing you all the news of import from yesterday.

Which consists of a single note, from the Town, where Miss Skywalker was dealing with phone calls that are for some reason making the squirrels snicker.

Until next time, everyone.

imafuturist

We're back again! With no semi-giant lizards here to attack us. It's, again, something you just get used to happening in this town.

Sorry, new folks. You could see if the squirrels will share old broadcasts if you're really interested in some of the things that have happened in the past. If they're sober enough for it... Maybe just ask the intern.

Let's see how everyone recovered yesterday. First up, we had Raiden finding out that the Waffle House had returned once more. Steve--my Steve, not the other one--found out that Raiden fed the lizards pizza. Which... doesn't seem healthy for them. Stark talked to Steve about his getting dragged into helping with radio as well. Stark also got hints for Raiden's class on what would be covered in conjunction with Waffle House food. Jane was at Caritas, upsetting Tino about his dating habits. I don't think I honestly want more details on that one.

And there we have it! The last of the news. Everyone stay safe out there.

Good morning, everyone. I trust you are all well after yesterday's...excitement. That seems a good word. I am as always Miss Lydia Bennet, here to bring you all the news, giant lizard-related and otherwise, the squirrels saw fit to bring me.

( Godzilla-fighting radio under here! )

Good morning, everyone, it's Captain Steve Rogers here with the news of yesterday--

*chittering*

--and breaking news of today, too, it seems. We are being invaded by giant lizards?!

*chittering*

Okay, giant to you. How tall for the rest of us?

*wishy-washy chittering*

Tall as a building?

*more chittering*

As tall as a very short building. Right. Well, I'll be doing some reconnaissance after this is over, so let's get through the news quickly today, okay?

We had our fourth day of classes. About half of you were in there with me, so you know we began the day with Liliana's Ethical Dilemmas, where even the introductions got a little uncomfortable, and then it was off to Yellowstone with Sam Eagle's National Parks class, then Dr. Lecter's Philosophy of Food, where he checked in about allergies but did not have a waffle bar like Raiden's Art of Breakfast Did you eat from the waffle bar?

*awkward pause*

Right. That's not very professional. Belle was being haunted by ghost stories in the Library. Literally?

*chittering*

Literally. The Dorms were quiet, but the porg has been comforted with pilfered waffles, so we can move on. In Town, Adrian was dealing with an aggressive sales call at Pick Your Poison, Liz was being slow and careful around the Photo Hut, and I hope her energy was boosted by the lunch Prompto brought her, and Boc was folding clothing after coming in late from his food class. Don't worry about that, Boc, lots of people have adjusted their hours to take classes in the summertime. Speaking of possibly missing work, Steven and Watts had lunch at the museum and discussed their next vacation. Tony and I enjoyed our recent trip to Greece, if you were looking for ideas. And in other exotic locales, the Supper Club traveled to Baltimore--admittedly, not that exotic--to try fancy Syrian food, which sounds amazing. Lydia, Liliana & Ignis, Rey, Flint, and Adrian got over the prices of the menu and spent an enjoyable evening not wondering too long about how Flint didn't know what stop lights or crosswalks were for. Henry, if you're also confused by these words, let me explain them to you. Please. Friends don't let friends get squished by cars. And finally, Thor was, quote, "definitely not sulking" at the Devil's Nest, and if this is paintball related, know, from the very bottom of my heart, my friend, that I don't regret shooting you at all.

And now I'm off to check about those lizards! Stay safe if that's applicable!

One day I'm going to learn my lesson and squirrel proof these windows, but apparently that day was not yesterday.

The only thing happening up at the School was Arden looking up painball tips in the Library, I believe that 'don't get hit' is the main one, and that was because as you all should know and act accordingly by now, Wednesadays are when Anakin inflicts his bad life choices on everyone, also known as Shenanigans, there was the usual mingling, with Jag's small children giving Anakin ideas, so thank you Jag, then the voluntolds were presented with tehir wearable eyesores, with Flint and Quinn being deeeply confused and debatably enlighted by Jon and Anakin respectively, while Steph and Vi flirted over their terrible shirts, like idiots. The ridiculousness of the days was a relay race which took teams all over the island, and while the team wearing monkeys finished first, let's be real, there were no winners.

Nothing happened in the Dorms, while in Town, Prompto enjoyed a rare moment of calm at Furnado, and Quinn suffered the after effects of shenanigans at the Infinite Consortium, though Liliana was happy to dispose of her shirt. It was date night at the Boarding House, and at Caritas, Summer was judging Tino's tinder profile, though why was was looking at it to begin with...Stark came by after avoiding the park, as did the zombie Atton clone I see we've come to a compromise there, while Percy had questions about what was in hot dogs. Probably best not to ask.

Good morning, it’s Wednesday, I’m Stark, I hope everyone is aware that Anakin’s nonsense takes place on Wednesdays. Be alert.

Summer workshops have started so I have notes from the school this week. My class on Finding New Hobbies met this morning and introduced ourselves and our hobbies. One of Anakin’s is tormenting island residents in the park on Wednesdays. Thor began his class on Norse Life with food and finding out what the students already know about the subject. In Paintball! we all shot each other. Anakin probably cheated. Arden won.The Wonderful World of Art did artistic introductions rather than simply talking to each other.

I have nothing from the dorms, the porg is sad, but at least Leroy is still not here. I probably ought to be worried about that...not about him. About what he might be doing.

And now, the town. Pam was at Pick Your Poison working in the garden which the squirrels have made sound very beautiful. Remy had old books for sale at Needful Things but no baby alligators were there this week. And last night at Caritas Kitty was…oh no. I’m sorry, Kitty. Kitty was dealing with Tino showing her his matches on Tinder. Kitty, I’ll buy you a drink the next time I see you. If you like.

That’s all for today from yesterday. Remember to be careful of the park.

Hey there Fandom! It's me, ya girl, Arden Finch, bringing you all the best of yesterday's news. A hearty welcome to any of the newbies listening, and a bit of advice: it never actually gets less weird around here, but you start getting used to it.

( Limerick Radio )

That's it for the news today! So have a great week, Fandom, because ya girl, Arden Finch, is signing off, though leaving you with Tear It Down by Sam Tinnesz. Bye island!

What are you- oh. Oh. Every Monday? And it must be in the morning? Are you certain? *The sound of a deep, resigned sigh.* Well, all right then.

Good morning, everyone. Detective Watts here, with the happenings of yesterday. And apparently I'm to be a regular fixture from now on instead of only an occasional one.

First off, at the Dorms - yes, thank you - for anyone who was wondering, the, ah, porg is indeed looking quite pleased with itself. Over in the dormitories we've Miss Bennet who made up a pot of tea and had some pastries delivered, with the intent of sharing with anyone who might be about. Such as Miss Zarrin the younger, who came in to discuss, amongst other things, witchcraft and, ah. Sisters. Including Miss Zarrin the elder, who also stopped by to partake of the tea and pastries.

My only other note is that over in Town Commander McGarrett received a text message before having dinner with Detective Williams.

And that is everything the squirrels deigned to share with me, and by extension the rest of you, regarding yesterday's goings on. Until next week, goodbye.

I am tanned, relaxed, and not even annoyed about being ambushed by the squirrels for this. Hello, new folks. I'm Tony Stark and this is the gossip that masquerades as news around town provided by drunk rodents. You get used to it after a while.

All the news from yesterday was at the welcome picnic. With new folks like Henry who just woke up here and had Arden explain where and when he was. Oh yeah, that also happens sometimes. Lydia did the same with him, letting him know about things like plumbing. Well. That'll solve a lot of issues at least. Also new is Luma who Arden greeted and found out she's Eleanor's sister here as a surprise and the squirrels are looking extremely dubious about how nice of a surprise it's meant to be. And I'll actually have to agree with them. Lydia, however, seemed to have a much more friendly interaction with Luma, comparing families and when they're from. Eleanor was suitably surprised by Luma's appearance at the school... and this is just a poorly drawn picture of a squirrel eating popcorn. You know what, sometimes you just take what you're given here.

Jag, who sounds new, and Jaina, who sounds less new, discovered they're teaching a class on teamwork together. Eleanor and Arden discovered that one of the squirrels was trying to put... raisins in the potato salad. I will assume they were drunk. They then compared the classes they're both taking this semester. Jack, also sounds new, talked with Lilianna about music and adventures off island. Prompto found out that Lilliana was teaching a class this year. Oh yeah, I think JARVIS signed me up for that. Stark and Rey also talked about classes and also the new faces.

Summer and Rey talked about how there used to be a lot more new faces during their day and wow does that make me feel old. Lana learned from Summer what a ferret was and then about how her family involves giant fighting robots. That sounds... kind of like they're the Fantastic Four or something, honestly. Stark was apparently involved with the giant, fighting robots. Which is a normal thing I have said here, folks. Gladio mentioned to Lilliana how he wished he'd been able to help out with her time back home. Lyida and Arden decided to make a cat cafe on the island with a tiktok famous cat. Which seems about as much as a business plan as any store here needs, honestly. Rey complimented Lydia's parasol before it turned into a discussion of fashion. Ignis and Liliana discussed cooking for her class and... well, I'd say there's more but the squirrels just doodled hearts on it instead. So let's just assume it was romantic.

Stewart and Arden talked about classes and the struggles of being social. Gray was caught up on the gossip by Arden and complained about people changing the names of things. And then, last of all, Lilianna and Stark caught up with what was happening with him and his being single now.

And that's all they wrote for me. Everyone is hopefully settling in and ready for the next school session.

*chittering*

Oh. Oh! Right. And happy mother's day to everyone.

Good morning, everyone, and a warm welcome to our newcomers, if they have learned about the radio yet. It took me a while, myself. I am Miss Lydia Bennet, and this is Fandom Radio, the program where we report all the gossip the squirrels see fit to scribble down. You will get used to it, I wish to assure you.

Let's see...I've no notes for the school, of course, as the break continued, nor have I any for the dorms, the porg is sad, nothing new there...I do assure you we do things in the dormitory, of course, but speaking for myself, I do value my privacy. We do, however, have some notes for the town, so let's see what people were up to yesterday, hmm?

At the Trooper Station, Detective Watts was dealing with a rash of thefts--watch out for those wily lawn gnomes, apparently--and was joined by Mr. Grant for luncheon. Over on Serendipity Place, some of our new arrivals, the Solo-Fels, settled in, with Dean Skywalker arriving to greet them and Mrs. Solo-Fel telling him about the...assassination attempts...that preceded their arrival. Well! Some people do lead such interesting lives, don't they? Goodness. At Plant Parenthood, Miss Zarrin was making plans for the summer, whilst at Turtle & Canary there was a celebration of buttons underway, and Mr. Argentum objected to being made to do math. A quite reasonable objection, if you ask me. And finally, Mr. Barnes was at The Perk, mulling over some news from home.

Those are all of my notes, and now I am off to the welcome picnic. You will get used to the squirrels spying upon you in due time, dear listeners, or you may do what I do and place wards upon your room. The choice is yours! Until next week, farewell!
