What up, Fandom? It's me, ya girl, Arden Finch, coming at you live from the Maldives. It is beautiful here and I'm pretty sure the only reason they're not serving sweet tea is because they knew I'd never leave, otherwise. Also, a quick shout out to Captain Rogers for covering for me last week when I was busy.

*chittering*

Captain Rogers didn't say anything because he's polite, and I'm not saying anything because you're just being nosy.

Nothing from School, Dorms, or Town - the squirrels keep jabbering on about some kind of outage, but everything looks like it's working to me? Or do y'all mean outings, aka 'what everybody did yesterday'?

During the day, the only person in the hotel was Captain Flint who woke up in the Beach House lounge and pretty much stayed there all day, reading. That's because most people were on the beach, like Rey and Dean Skywalker, who told her about snorkeling and promised extra credit to anybody in swimming class who tried it. Henry was still a bit intimidated by the open ocean, but he and Rey talked about how a bunch of planets she's been on only had one kind of biome, but how Earth had a bunch of different ones he'd be able to see because of Fandom trips. And Ms. Solo-Fel was watching her kiddos catch turtles in the water. The squirrels are making jokes about eligible bachelors but I honestly don't get it.

Other folks went kite-surfing during the afternoon, like Captain Rogers, who kept trying to convince Ms. Pryde-Barton to try it with her eyes open. Other folks opted for more low-key activities; Eleanor - hi, Ellie! - went snorkeling, and Captain Isabela somehow stole a ship for a one-woman drinking cruise and, uh, that's some straight up queen [BLEEP] right there.

In the evening, some folks, like Ms. Wren were enjoying the lobster dinner, while a bunch of other folks watched a movie night out on the beach. Doc Harley talked to Rey about hoping the movie scared folks out of the water, and Professor Sims seemed to agree with the sentiment, though Duke Skywalker thought it was a great movie choice.

And that's it for today's broadcast, so forgive me if I don't hang around. I've got a cute bathing suit to try on and a tan to perfect you know, assuming the internet works tomorrow. This is your reminder - Cal - to wear your sunscreen and drink plenty of water! So this is ya girl, Arden Finch, heading out and leaving you with Take Me To The Beach by Imagine Dragons. Have a good break, Fandom!

*chittering*

What do you mean? I’ve been here the whole time. I’m just enjoying some solitude.

*sceptical chittering*

Hush. Notes, please.

Nothing from the school, of course because we’re here on an entirely different island from the one we live on. And nothing from the dorms because we aren’t there.

I have a little from the town. Octavia and Duke had a date night at Lucifer’s with nachos. And Remy was working at Needful Things while his cats knocked things off shelves.

Now for the trip. During the day Jon went to the spa to treat himself. Liliana joined him for drinks and a conversation about…elves? All right. And Steve enjoyed the swim-up bar at the pool.

Some people went swimming with sharks, including Anakin and Arden who were both excited. Others went snorkeling with manta rays. Rey was joined by Henry who was very unfamiliar with the activity. Harley was also there talking with Rey and distracting Henry. Adrian was taking pictures of Rey in addition to the fish. And Lydia seemed uncomfortable about the whole idea.

And then Flint borrowed a yacht.

In the evening there was a party on the yacht which was attended by Harley, Steve, Henry, and myself.

Liliana set up a watch party to look at ridiculous costumes from…everywhere? Flint was surprised and confused by all of it and that seems reasonable. Ignis was there, of course, to listen to the reactions and Liliana’s descriptions. Jon preferred this to the sharks from the night before. Lydia was enjoying the commentary more than the outfits, it seems.

I believe that’s all. No room parties that I know of, tonight. But perhaps I’ll see some of you somewhere else.
