So you've all decided to lift the radio ban again, huh?

*chittering*

Alright, makes sense. And what if I don't want it?

*more chittering*

I'll remind you that I have a squirrel-specific Crumbler.

*silence*

That's what I thought. *sigh* Anyway, let's get through this, I've got work to do. Hello, everyone. Amaya here. Amaya Blackstone, local blacksmith, and now that Graham's off fulfilling his dreams of being an upstanding knight for the realm of Daventry--*snort* Good luck with that, kid!--there's a gap in the radio schedule and I got volunteered to fill it. And I can't say I blame 'em for trying, if there's anything you needed fixed, rest assured, I'm your gal. With over twenty years experience under my toolbelt, I--

*chittering!*

What? You don't get to be self-righteous about dragging my butt in here and then not letting me at least advertise my business! *sigh* Zards, fine, alright, alright, I'll just read the notes.

*clears throat*

For classes at the School, Booze Tasting and Drinking Games enjoyed bourbon and Truth or Dare--Dare, always pick Dare--this week, and Philosophies of Mana was canceled due to 'unforeseen circumstances,' but the squirrels all know it was because the teacher was a cat. Arts and Crafts for Beginners played around with making their own glittery temporary tattoos, and in Arts and Crafts but with Metal, we welded scrap metal sculptures. A Shot in the Dark, which is not about archery but would be very funny if it was, took a trip to a coffee plantation, and Cultural Appreciation got an impromptu performance from one of their teachers--sadly, not Beaker!--and made something called a karma chameleon.

And, finally, in the library, Belle was dealing with some play-acting gremlins.

There are no notes for the Dorms except the waste of paper that is the note telling me there's no notes for the Dorms, but over in the Town, Sabine was making questionable fashion decisions at Wellspring Arms, Tara had made some questional life decisions at the Infinate Consort-- no, before you say anythng, I am not saying it like that, and why is Leroy--you know what? Never mind, I remember I don't even want to know--and Kamala woke up as a pony.

Yeah, that happens sometimes. Glad to hear it was just a personal thing this time around, though.

The staff at Luke's Diner wanted Duke to drink some tea for his benefit, and then he was spewing apparent nonesnese once he finished there and headed home to the Cape Rouge, much to Octavia and Lucifer's mutual bewilderment. Eleanor tried to light candles with magic over at Plant Parenthood while Boc apparently embroidered all the things at Pixie Dust. Liz was busy with her paperwork at the Photo Hut, and Steven was busy with signs and displays at the Museum, and Watts stopped by with lunch and they were very mushy about it and I'm very unhappy having to read about anyone's mushy stuff.

Annie was trying to get into the summer holiday spirit a little early at the Devil's Nest, where she and Gladio discussed whether blending and adding sprinkles to a White Russian still made it a White Russian, although I'm not one for the fancier stuff, but I'm pretty sure that literally makes it a Multicolored Russian. Nell decided to be adventurous by getting drinks with actual booze in 'em for a change, especially with Gladio there to help get her home, and, good thing, too, according to these notes, since apparently, that booze went right through her. Watts also popped in and chatted with Annie about the twins getting out and socializing during events like the upcoming picnic this Money, which she also talked to Steve about....that and the urge to get another tattoo...and Watts learned that if you set up a Blue Hawaiian drink special, a wild McGarrett will appear.

And now you've all got that knowledge, but I'm sure Steve'll appreciate if you didn't go about testing that at all hours of the day. Or maybe he would! I don't know the guy very well.

But that does look like we're done with the notes. I'm gonna get out of here and see about adding some new upgrades to the squirrel Crumbler because it's current iteration isn't---

--yeah, that's right, you little furry rats! You heard what I said! Don't forget why you banned me from doing this in the first place! Forget the Crumbler, someone just get me some good, sturdy skewer--

**CLICK!!*

Fandom Radio, Saturday, May 25

[mustbeawitch]

--wanted me to come every Saturday you could have simply told me, there was no need to...is that thing on? Have you--ugh. You're all so very rude.

Good morning, everyone, and this is Miss Lydia Bennet, apparently your regular Saturday morning squirrel note-reader, which it would have been nice if the squirrels had told me, but then I suppose that might be too much to ask from inebriated rodents--don't even think of it, Leroy! I showed you last time what happens when you pull my hair!

Ahem. Let's begin, shall we? There continue to be no notes for the dorm, which, as a resident thereof, I do greatly appreciate even if there is now a porg using my skirt hem as a handkerchief, so we move along to the school, where Doctoring 101 took a "field trip" that was not to a field but rather a swamp or perhaps bog, to learn all about leeches. First they hunted for leeches and then learned how to care for them and brought them home, and I'm sure we are all very glad to know the island is well-supplied with leeches for any medical needs that might arise. Food Network Appreciation watched a programme called Iron Chef in which the chef is, apparently, not made out of iron, and ate strawberry-themed treats. Camping 101 put together "first aid kits" appropriate for camping, and then went for a hike before gathering around a campfire. Additionally, Mrs. Ingram & Mr. Amicitia spoke of the night before. In Yoga class, Miss Diaz taught her students about the "sacral chakra," and in Wonders of the Weave, Mr. Dekarios had us discuss our different kinds of magic.

That finishes the day at the school, so we shall move along to the town, where...Dr. Navaan took a nap at the clinic and Detective Watts tossed his hat in the air and tried to catch it on his head at the trooper station. Ah, and Detective Watts also got a coffee delivery courtesy of Mr. Grant. Mr. Ghoul was working at Wellspring Arms, while at Needful Things Mr. Spector stopped by and Dr. Quinn told him about how she's looking for haunted objects. Personally, I wouldn't. At Pick Your Poison, Miss Hanson was busy on her laptop, and Mr. Sims stopped by with a coffee to ask if there had been any word about one 'Eliot' and also to discuss banks. Dr. Quinn also stopped by to purchase bath products and discuss magic. At The Devil's Nest, Mr. Lucifer had Mr. Tiny "laminating" things, and I don't know what that is, so we'll just assume it's nice, shan't we? Mr. Winchester stopped by and discussed Mr. Crocker's troubles with Mr. Lucifer, and then bought Mr. Crocker, whose trouble is apparently that he can only speak in nonsense--sounds curselike--a drink. Mr. Lucifer then attempted to communicate with Mr. Crocker via cards, with some success. At Mr. McGarrett & Mr. Williams's apartment, Mr. Williams discovered Mr. McGarrett's new tattoo, while at Miss Vess's house, Mr. Scientia was quite pleased to find Miss Vess no longer a cat. Miss Khan got a telephone call from her mother at the boarding house, where Miss Finch spoke to that cad Mr. Kestis and showed him her new tattoo. And finally, Miss Skywalker returned from a trip to her warehouse, where Mr. Skywalker the elder told her about the leeches. So you see, it all comes back to leeches in the end.

And now I shall bid you farewell, and we will meet again next week, now that I know what these dratted squirrels want. Good day, Fandom!
