Fandom Radio, Friday, January 5th

[http://users.livejournal.com/weissguy_/]

"Hey folks. Eric Weiss here for what will be my last regular radio broadcast. That's right, I'm leaving the airwaves. I can already hear Bel celebrating. I'm pretty sure Anders is with him.

School

Nothing but some office hours: Kevin Flynn, Dr. Orpheus, and Ares.

Dorms

In the gym, Tori joins the Hot 'n' Sweaty Women's Workout Team. President Aeryn Sun will be proud to have you aboard, Tori.

Balthier's cleaning his guns. I hope that's not a euphemism. The squirrels have it highlighted and underlined, though. Ew.

In the 5th Floor Common Room, Pippi's pounding out the pancakes. She apologizes to Snorepick about some confusing thing with her royal title. See, now I need an apology because royal title? What? River explains Berthold to Deerhike. Because everybody should know about the care and feeding of one's tentacle monster. Walter and Beer-fight go OMGWTFDOPPELGANGER. Do they really look that much alike? I don't see it. Annette asks Smearheight out on a kindasorta date. Bonus points to Annette if she actually remembers his real name at the end of the date. Annette meets Walter and Annette is awfully nice to him. I'd like to see her in a room with Vader. She'd paint daisies on his armor. River got some bad telepathic vibes over vacation. She's picking up bad vibrations, people. Valentine thinks Fandom is mundane. Only if you come from Crazyland, dude.

Posters went up for Evil Pink Pony Awareness. An important message, dude. Gotta keep an eye for those guys.

Posters went up for Cheerleader Tryout Awareness. An important message, dude. Gotta keep an eye out for that school spirit.

Over in the 2nd Floor Common Room, Dick watches CFD. Wait, we have a student named Dick now and I'm quitting the radio? Completely lame. Dick tries to pass off beer-swilling as a superpower. Cassie ain't buyin' it. Tannim explains pancakes to Balthier. Is this gonna be one of those wacky sitcom situations where we're all brought together by explaining random crap to this guy? 'Balthier, the spork's not for gouging eyes out! Silly Balthier!' Summer accidentally lets slip the new student initiation conspiracy. Aw, now I've let it slip. Actually, the funny part of the conspiracy is we tell you all this weird stuff, you think we're putting you on, and then the island gets invaded by Weebles and you wish you'd listened. Balthier complains that Fandom is slow. Dude, you're the one who needed pancakes explained to you. If you're gonna talk slow, bring it back home. That's all I'm saying. Floppy-haired Peter coulda been somebody. He coulda been a contender. Or he will be somebody, he could be a contender. This semi-prophetic stuff weirds me out. Summer tells Floppy-Haired Peter that being drunk is not a requirement of doing radio. Like hell it's not. I've got a full mug of this weird green alcohol I just made the acquaintance of today. It's half-empty. It's gonna be all empty when I'm done.

Zuko's practicing fire bending in the Salle. No fire detectors were harmed in the making of this news story. He and Mel flirt using fists and fire. If only all courtships were so straightforward. They gather a crowd and Seely starts taking bets. After the fight, English Peter gives Zuko a dagger. Yeah, because he doesn't have enough outlets for his violent tendencies.

Pippi, Mr. Nelson, and Walter attempt a stealth attack on Locker 327. The locker is unimpressed.

Phoebe and Bel talk about the new nephew thing. Bel swears up and down he hasn't slept with either one... yet.

Henry writes in his journal. Annette writes in her dream journal. 'Dear Dream Journal -- horsies and kitties again and they were all singing my favorite songs! Love and Sunshine, Annette.'

Luke's home and he's got a new robot friend, R2-D2. Talk to Bridge about souping that guy up, Luke. I bet he could install iTunes on it for you. Luke fills Rory in on his trip. English Peter, Aeryn and Z all give Luke a hearty welcome back. They really wanted to see the robot, though. Who wouldn't?

Dawn writes a letter. She chats with me about stuff that totally blew up in my face today. Buffy wants Dawn to show her school spirit with the cheerleading squad. Isabel pops by to do crafts!

Marty and Angela are cute. Also, puppies become dogs when they grow up. I'm full of interesting, little known facts.

Greg begs for mercy from Isabel. She makes him crawl like a worm. Or maybe I just got that thought in my... EW. I'm sorry folks, there was no call for that.

Buffy's back. River and Alec are pleased.

Parker has a birthday party. She just turned 18. In attendance are Wyatt, Jake, River, Neil, Chad, Turtle, Anders, Buffy, Tannim, Zero, Shawn, Bridge, Chris, Jack, who gives terrible advice, English Peter, Cam, Isabel, D'anna, Angela, Molly, Seely, Billy, Door, Sam Carter, R2-D2 cake stealer extraordinare, Tori, and one very stupid radio host.

Nadia stands on the roof in the rain. She also like pina coladas. Nova tells Nadia he was built for combat. Which is probably better than telling her you were built for love. Setsuna has a boy in her room, omg. Cally totally wants to get liquored up on cheap Viper moonshine. Billy's asking too many questions about Cally's still, see? Somebody's gonna have to make with the cement shoes before he stool pigeons, see? Balthier eats apples and stargazes. Balthier figured out apples all on his own. Very good, Balthier.

Townies

Over at Aromotopategima, Jack and Lana exchange belated Christmas gifts.

Jane's in a really really good mood at All and Sundries. Please don't tell us why. Please.

Sporebike wanders into Empire Records to figure out what it's for. Records is my guess. Willow checks in on Kaylee. Later, Willow will be competing against Annette Hargrove for OMG Nicest Person in Fandom. Henry would like a radio, probably to listen to the Friday news broadcast. Hate to disappoint you, dude, but this is my last week on the mic.

Devil's Nest is open for all your drunk under the table needs. Emma Frost has a beer. Clark does, too, completely breaking my white bread image of him. I'm scarred. I don't know enough about Yondaime to be surprised by his drinking, though.

At the clinic, Nadia stayed overnight with Wilson. Not dirty. Aziraphale shows up later. Possibly dirty. Wilson's awake for the evening shift, but he's still in bed. Recover quickly, Dr. Wilson. We need you to come back to school and freak out at Neil.

Well folks, that's all from me. I mean, really all. It's been a wild ride. Have a good night and don't forget to tip your radio newscasters."

"................." There was a long, long pause as Demyx stared at the radio. He didn't really hear most of the broadcast, still processing what he heard at the beginning. "...Why would Anders be...oh..."

Valentine crossed his arms as he turned off the radio.
"Crazyland... puh. It's just quirky enough to keep it interesting."

What with the sentient books and flying fish and stilted-beetle-police and all.

Parker listened to the radio broadcast, frowning during certain parts. Then she replayed it. Hunh. Weiss was quitting Radio. That was annoying. "Hmmmmm." On the other hand....

Thinking over certain things, Parker smiled as she drifted off to sleep.


[ooc: damn, and adios, and great job, and applause.]

Jack facepalmed as he listened to the radio. "It was great advice. Seriously. What did you do?" And then he realised he was, you know, talking to the radio which couldn't hear him and facepalmed again.

[ooc: Woes that you're quitting radio! Awesome work, all round!]

Henry put down his radio after listening to the broadcast. How did they know?

Nicest person in Fandom? Cool. My kind of sort of date with Strikepike has been handwavily postponed. I wonder who Willow is?

(ooc: omg *dies* laughing! Brilliant! so sorry to see you leave the radio!)

Blew up in his face?

Dawn wondered if she was going to have to frying pan a bitch.
