Fandom Radio, Saturday, March 24th

Peter: Good morning, listeners. This is Peter Wiggin for WTFH, and this is my sidekick...

Topher: Hey! I'm not a sidekick!

Peter: My sidekick, Topher Brink.

Topher: Not a sidekick!

Peter: Topher, you can’t even lift a paperback novel or manage interaction more complicated than calling out for pizza. Sidekick it is.

Topher: Ugh.

Peter: You’ll grow to like it.


SCHOOL

Peter: Everyday Skills put us through the wringer of... everyday skills by dumping us in a dark room. Some days, I wonder if Oz thinks we’re all six.

And continuing its streak of teaching people all the important tricks of being a leader, Leadership class talked about when to dump everything on something else and mindlessly take orders. Very educational.

Topher: ...that does not sound very leader-y.

Peter: My point, you’re getting it. Art of Scrap put all your old newspapers to good use with a scintillating class on paper mache, while after school, the leader of Apathy Club turned out to be too apathetic to turn up, so Squall did, instead. Finally, the library was back to its usual Friday self, what with Wesley reading about demons and eyes in the back of your head and all that stuff.

Topher: ...okay. And also Jaye was throwing paper in the trash. For her whole office hours. Sounds productive.

DORMS

Topher: On the sixth floor there was some kind of beach party that you had to be invited to go to. Or whatever. Rapunzel said hi to Stacey, fascinating, and Rebecca complained about some subpar decorations to Annie. Who I guess ran the thing because otherwise that complaining would not have been helpful. Then Rebecca talked to Anakin about gremlins and Jedis and how apparently he's an intern. Wait, that's a thing? Can I be a Jedi intern?

Peter: I think it’s better for everyone if we nip that idea in the bud, Christopher.

Topher: I'm gonna talk to Ben about it.

Peter: Ben? Please do us a favor and call in to shoot him down so he doesn’t need to head up to your room and get traumatized again.

Topher: What do you mean, again?

Peter: I’ll tell you when you’re older.

*sighing*

Topher: Then Bruce talked to Rilla and then Rebecca about weird phone messages from the other day. Oh right I actually got one... that I will not talk about on the radio! Never mind. Then he talked to Hanna about glitter sandcastles -- Peter, have you ever made one of those? 'Cause that one weekend you seemed sorta into it.

Peter: I don’t want to get near a single speck of glitter again in my life.

Topher: Trauma?

Peter: I don’t want to talk about it.

Topher: Then Chuck talked to Rilla and thanked her for the invite, yawn, and then to Rebecca about how you shouldn't eat glitter. Peter.

Peter: Yeah, thanks. I really didn’t know that.

Topher: Well, you know. There was that one time. Hanna talked to Chuck about the weird phone messages. Then Rebecca told Rilla about that lantern and Rilla fixed it and saved the day. I'm sure everyone's lives were better for it.

And then Tara and Rebecca talked about drinks and college and I guess those things go together sorta. And Rapunzel and Kenzi talked about painting buildings together. Okaaaay.

Peter: Well, I know I’ll be putting plastic wrap around my window tonight.

Topher: ...maybe Dave will do ours. Hanna and Rapunzel talked about the glitter, whatever. Quinn and Bruce were gushing about getting to perform for an audience. Then Elphaba and Hanna talked about the glitter. I had no idea it was such a popular subject. Annie and Kenzi talked about future plans -- wait, Kenzi has those? Did you know about this?

Peter: I don’t think Kenzi has future plans that extend past the next wallet.

Topher: Yeaaah. Then Jace talked to Rilla about how they can't go to prom 'cause they're sophomores. Oh, we don't have to go to that one? Awesome. Then he talked to Rebecca about where he got the invitation from, and then they went to hang out or something, I don't know.

Peter: Seriously, Rebecca? I don’t know whether to be impressed or disgusted.

Topher: ...wait, what? Nathan informed Rilla that it's okay to be plain because it means she can make up for it -- oh that's just gross.

Topher: Oh, and Peter talked to Rebecca too. And he told her to be more direct, which I didn't think she really needed to be, and they wound up going to --

*choking noises*

Peter: Here. Have a glass of wat-- oh, wait. It’s rum. Seriously, squirrels? You have rum on tap?

Topher: Peter. Again? Really?

Peter: What are you, the sex life police?

Topher: PLEASE DO NOT SAY 'SEX LIFE.'

Peter: I really think you should take the rum.

Topher: It's like eight o'clock in the morning.

Peter: It’s that or we hash out this Rebecca thing on live radio.

Topher: Saying 'Rebecca thing' is also ew.

Peter: Making the beast with two backs?

*gagging noises*

Peter: Thought so. Moving on.

TOWN

Peter: Skywalker kept up with the news while wasting time over at Stark Industries, while Toby made snow-cones at Goodvalor’s. No news on whether they’re related. Kenzi certainly upped the class factor with her Petey Sci-fi range of naughty underwear at Dite’s.

Topher: ...ew.

Peter: Which reminds me - since I’d forgotten -, yesterday featured the opening night of Petey Sci-fi down at the theater. Hope nobody broke a leg; apparently there were a lot of backstage freak-outs going on.

Peter: There was in fact an audience for this whole thing, which included, of all people, my sidekick here. Really, Topher? You went to see Petey Sci-fi? I’m impressed! You’re not even cowering under a desk somewhere.

Topher: ...Billy told me to go.

Peter: I see.

Topher: ...shut up.

Peter: Uh-huh. Bo turned up mostly to show off her corset - from what I’ve been hearing, they probably won’t be able to distinguish you from the actors, Bo. Might be bad timing. Not that it kept Kenzi from noticing. The performance itself ensued, and it sounds like no one wound up with any major injuries, so there’s that. Some of the actors hung out backstage afterwards, including Natalie, who told Topher that it wasn’t ‘that bad’. I really should check that out, shouldn’t I...? Her boyfriend also showed up to make out, but I don’t think that’s anywhere near as significant.

Topher: Nope.

Peter: One of the people in charge of the play, Jono, also hung back after the show. Raven came to find him; they talked about their future plans and about Jono’s part in the making-of this spectacular extravaganza.


Oh, and Kenzi was enthusiastic. Someone hold me, I think I’m about to faint in surprise.

Topher: Ask that squirrel to do it.

Peter: What, the burly one? No thanks.

Topher: Maybe that one there with the bracelets?

Peter: No, on second thought, I think my fainting spell is passing.

Topher: Good, so we can leave.

Peter: Yes. And right now, please and thanks.

"You are the sidekick," Kenzi told him, then pretty much laughed through the rest of the broadcast.
