Fandom Radio, Sunday, August 26th
*piano music starts*
Now you're at school, where you'll learn a great many things
About the world and who you are
But is that it?
No. Definitely no. Positively no!
Decidedly no!
You see there are squirrels following you
Writing everything down
Then they give those notes to me
I'm Yakko, your radio clown
Then me and my piratical cohorts, every morning, every date
Will share your tales of derring do
And whatever's on your plate....
It's the news
It's the news
It's our local Fandom pirate radio news
We report on every single thing that you do
You'll have no secrets at all when we're through
Every cooooooonversation you take
We'll talk about as soon as you wake
Now you can go to your room and lock the door
After searching every crack and crevice on your floor
Cram the vents with gremlins if you believe that lore
It's our news
It's the news
It's the news!
We'll share your conversations, their locations in space
We'll mention all your actions, who threw what in your face
Don't bother watching for us, we won't leave any trace!
It's the news!
It's the news!
It's the neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeews!
There's plenty here, so let's jump right into it. I'm saving the Welcome Picnic for last because I don't wanna do two musical numbers in a row without some kind of buffer. So as I run through the town and dorms news, if you don't recognize some names, just remember that you'll hear more from them later on.
TOWN NEWS
Starting in the Causeway Parking Lot, Jackson and Stiles met for the first time in Fandom, but apparently not the first time in life, because they kind of hate each other already.
Mary was trying to find picture's of Prince Harry's Crown Jewels at the Arms - Goodnight everybody! - while Zayne sat around not looking at any naked pictures at all at MCA and Carl read crazy people letters at the Fandom Gazette.
Over at The Devil's Nest, Tiny had to wear the moose antlers that Bo wore last week. Derek needed someplace to lurk after getting thrown out of the welcome picnic, so he stopped by and was creepy to Bo, which is MY job, and I'm nice enough to do it at a distance, and over the radio where everyone can hear. Kenzi tried to ask Mr Starey some questions, but he ignored her. So instead she checked in with Bo and how her tiara from Amazon is lost in the warehouse. I'm pretty sure I got that slightly wrong, but there's no time to dwell!
DORM NEWS
Jessica broke in her new room by goofing around on her phone and over in the third floor common room, Maeby could've been watching a special show called Redneck Island. Olive stopped in to see what was on, and because Chaz is stalking her, he was there immediately to let her know that he isn't stalking her. Maeby and Olive might have talked about their families back in SoCal, and Maeby and Chaz at least considered talking about reality shows and comparative ratings.
But now for the reason we're all actually here....
*music starts*
So you're new in Fandom Town
And you don't wanna frown
Meet people with whom you'll click
Meeting at the Picnic
Maybe you will find your new true love
Or a new rival you won't speak of
Will that stick
We'll see at the Picnic
That's where rooms and siblings get doled out
And even crazy teachers aren't showed out
'cause they'd pout!
So let's see what happened
A friending spree, or who fled from there
Right quick
From the Picnic
Starting with the sibs! Jessica got to meet Dany's dragons, which was only the start of the "this place is nuts" discussion. Stiles was prepared for weird after meeting a different version of Jackson at the parking lot, but he wasn't really prepared for girls, like Sia. Olive and Rilla had some awkwardness with Olive having a potty mouth and Rilla having 1915 sensibilities because she's from then, which just confused the new kid. Dave took baby steps toward explaining how zany this place is with Chaz while Cade whined to Karla about non-space technology.
Korra didn't expect to be in Fandom or school, which made life oh so very easy for big bro Toby. Jackson and Sparkle both agreed that the school was nuts for putting Sparky in charge of anyone, but they're overlooking one important fact. They let me and Pinkie Pie teach. The inmates aren't just running the asylum, they built the place for their comfort. And I have to say, the amenities are pretty great! Jim is from a future where they shun nametag ettiquite, so Juliet had trouble finding him. But she paid him back by describing magic. Take....... THAT Jimmy. And Yeul gave good tidings to Ace as they bonded over nicknames and the Fandom wacky.
Once everyone was done there, they moved five feet to the left, switched places, and met their new roommates. Atton wasn't thrilled to be rooming with Jessica, but he promised that he wasn't going to be getting all Rand-y around her. Karolina and Olive joined forces to create a California girl power room and talked about how they came to be at Fandom. I'm pretty sure they're good stories if you ever get the chance to hear them.
Stiles promised roomie Cade that he'd never give Big C a reason to shoot him, which I think we can agree is the thing you should most look for in a roommate. Jackson and Jim got along like a house on first that then exploded and got hit by a meteor before being hit by a tornado and having a monster attack, or what I like to call the Maxis Cure for Boredom. Darcy gave new girl Yeul more info on Fandom, and Chaz and Korra were awkward about co-ed rooming.
And yet the picnic had still JUST BEGUN! Next it was time for everyone to meet the teachers!
Lannisters both large and small planned to be drunk all semester because they were remembering what they were like as students. The unrelated and differently named Wonder Twins were now teaching buddies and caught up on classes and home worlds. And Kaidan was kind enough to give Principal Mac some more information on what she's gotten herself into.
Steve and Jaime talked classes and Stannis, while my office neighbor Anakin made sure Principal Mac wasn't like the Once and Never Again Dictator, Burnt Umbrige. Then he checked in with Jaina to see how she was doing now that she was back.
And speaking of guys with swooshy capes, Magneto showed up, with Jono being less than happy about that, probably because he didn't have a swooshy cape, too. Jaye took pictures of that entrance, but Maggy's cape drooped a bit when he found out she had no idea who he was. But Loki cheered him up by being tiny and adorable and probably showing pictures of cats eating invisible cheezburgers and just making you want to pinch his cheeks! Jessica recognized him, too, but this wasn't the him that she knew, on account of him not being a complete psychopath.
But none of that's important! Because now I present to you, ROBE VS CAPE! SWOOSH VS BILLOW! ANAKIN VS MAGNETO: ROUND 1. Things started out heavy as Anakin called Magneto a drama queen, but Magneto threw a sucker punch by BEING CIVIL! WHAT A FIGHT! The judges give this one to Magneto, because his creepy politeness was just too much for initial snark. Stay tuned all semester to see what happens in this true story (TRUE STORY) of two guys who can't enter a room quietly and find out what happens when they stop being passive aggressively polite and start getting real.
Jono and April couldn't figure out why they were being allowed to teach or drive buses, but I remind you once again. Pinkie. Yakko. You shouldn't be so surprised. Speaking of Pinkie, she's April's happy, sunshiney teaching buddy! See? No surprises! Meanwhile, Ronan gave Jono a new teacher pep talk.
And then it was time for more Face Time with Principal Mac! Jono tried to size Mommy Mac up and was left impressed. April decided to get some face time with the new boss, who in some ways is the same as the old boss. And somehow, Mac received a pie and DID NOT ASK ANY QUESTIONS. No word on who gave it to her or why. *whistles innocently*
And now we jump into the less structured portion of the picnic. That's right! Chaos! Anarchy! Possible shirtlessness? MINGLING!
After seeing Korra's polar bear puppy, Loki convinced Evan to get a pet puppy and use it as transportation. Dany was welcomed back by the Loki-Loo and scolded him for recording the poor innocent new kids as their brains were broken. Derek creeped on Stiles, who asked why he was creeping on him, but he didn't know what he was talking about, and Clint came along (after questioning Lurksalot earlier) to clean up all the pronouns and stop Derek from giving Stiles Shaken Newbie Syndrome.
Of course, Britta tried to pick up the creepy, shakey lurker. Oh, Britta.
There was a lizard war as Dany and Karla caught up about their summers, and then Susan filled Dany in on the Gloriously Brief Reign of the Umbo. Petra gave Dany a welcome back hug and got updates on political issues back in Dany's world. Speaking of....
Tyrion caught up to Dany and warned her that his brother was around and pointed him out so Dany could avoid him. But it didn't quite work out because Jaime found her and they had a very nice discussion about puppies and sunshine and flowers. At least that's what I assume, which makes all of us mules!
Dany and Stannis decided that both of them look like members of their respective families so they started talking about who they were. And finally, Ulrik complimented Dany's 'dragons' if you know what I mean (I mean dragons) and they talked about Dany's Lannister issues, which are priced very high by collectors because they were published by EC before the Comics Code destroyed them.
Olive was a little lost before Matt used the blind guy schtick - and stick - as an excuse to chat her up. Don't believe me? Just wait! Anyway, she suspected she was drugged. Nope! All real here! Tony stopped in to talk to Olive and confirm that no, it wasn't drugs. Chaz was still not stalking Olive when he came up and made sure they knew each others names and it turned awkward when jokes failed. That's why you have to have twenty or so lined up. Throw out so many, nobody knows how many unfunny jokes you even made! And Petra checked in with Olive as a Student Council member who knew how crazy Fandom could be for new kids, which is just way too helpful for a politician. Somebody check her tax records, she's hiding something.
Karla struggled to keep her dinosaur from viciously attacking poor, innocent, defenseless squirrels who probably need a charitable fund started in their name to pay for their therapy now. Victor recognized the dinosaur as one that Warren took during a drunken road trip. Evan checked in with Karla and confirmed that she's not just someone new who just looks like her.
Matt used the blind guy thing as an excuse to bump into Jessica, who apparently didn't realize he was a spree girl-bumper-into-er, because she was okay with it. She and Tony ended up bonding over science and his last name before Petra stopped by to assure Jessica that the insanity became commonplace after a while. Not if you take my class, it doesn't. Sia checked in with Atton's new roomie and got a bunch of science talk about blah blah blah and Hanna introduced herself to the new kid and they discussed their homes.
Stiles was apparently convinced there was a Cheetos shortage and basically worried everyone as the orangeness spread across his hands. Olive tried to get him to spare his pigmentation and slow down, but he just offered her some. There was some doppleganger shenanigans as Stiles mistook Victor for someone named Scott, but that got sorted out. Topher was territorial about the Cheetos, but helpfully pointed out everyone he knew that was more annoying than himself. Tony explained to Stiles that there's plenty of opportunities for free food, and Petra provided a bookend by trying to get Stiles to slow down with the snacks.
Karla knocked Peter down while chasing her squirrel-tormentor, so he yelled about the dino and eventually there was a discussion about how good Adult Special Hugging Time was in the other reality where Umbrige was watching over at all times and had a very active interest in people's Adult Special Hugging Time lives. Probably not very good if people like me made sure that nobody forgot how interested Principal Um was in that stuff. And Victor introduced himself to Peter at Topher's encouragement, so they talked about their homes and Haiti.
Atton sat around playing pazaak, which is just space blackjack, when Cade came by to play and be future space sassy. Olive arranged to teach Atton how to play UNO if he'd be her human shield when anything attacks, but she better hope he doesn't play a reverse card on that arrangement. And Sparkle objected to new people existing.
Sia had a surprise when Cade came by and clearly knew who she was even though she denied it. Psst, Sia, tip: use a fake name. Atton dropped in to complain about having a roommate and tries to get Sia to share in his misery by complaining about her little sib but she refuses. So he invites her out drinking instead, and I think I hear the sound of romance, everyone.
Susan spent some time under a tree, where Alec introduces himself and Matt bumps into her. A little clumsy, this Matt kid. Clumsy like a fox. Clear of that klutz... like a fox, Hanna checked in on Liara and discussed their homes. Alec was uncomfortable not being the awkward new kid anymore, but Jace gave him a pat on the head and asked about a conversation he had with Natalie.
Korra and her polar bear dog, Naga, were hanging out by the food when Sholeh came over and got adorably attacked by the bear puppy's tongue. Topher focused in on the pet immediately, but took some time to tell Korra about Cheetos. And then Loki's bird Ikol made friends with Naga and somebody probably posted a picture to Cute Overload while Loki and Korra met.
Still listening? Because there's still plenty to go!
Peter checked in with Anna because he remembered her form Umtown, Ulrik welcomed Sholeh back at the buffet, and Sholeh got a noogie from Sparkle, inspiring her to issue threats back.
Cable and Magneto played the many man stand-off game before picking out timeline issues between them. Juliet and Petra started talking post-graduation plans, which is way too early when the entire school could blink out of existence again another two or three times before that comes around.
Cade took some time to try to smuggle some fruit, but Topher tried to get him to reject health and try Doritos instead. Sparkle decided to join in the food thievery before telling Cade about food precipitation. And Tony tried to get Cade to use a plate instead of acting like he wasn't raised with any space manners.
All the girls swarmed around Jim as Britta, Petra, and Stacey all checked to make sure he was new and probably scope him out for any signs of being attached.
Jackson wasn't impressed when Britta tried to show off her jail cred. Matt tripped over Juliet COMPLETELY INNOCENTLY, just like he did with all of those other girls too. And Topher and Victor discussed the crazy crop of new Fandom pets.
Victor was glad to see that Tony was past what I can only assume was a dinosaur-sized hangover and talked about new girl Jessica, Luke Cage, Daany Rand, and movies. Fawn checked in on Victor, who'd seen a polar bear dog and a guy coming out of the sky, so it was just a typical day. Hanna bumped into Matt metaphorically before he could bump into her literally. Topher and Tony were awkward around each other even though Professor Umbo Week was a month ago now. And Billy and Topher hugged it out after a stressful trip home for the Kap-man.
Matt probably has a bruise the size of Rhode Island by now because he also bumped into Britta, inspiring her to talk about her summer in Amsterdam. Evan give Yeul a rundown of Fandom food and heroics, then Liara and Yeul talked hair, humans, and aliens.
Tony checked in on Billy now that he's back and it's not the happiest story ever, so I'll make whoopee cushion sounds to brighten the place up again. *whoopee* And then Victor said hi to Kitty since they've met in his time, but not in hers, and that's confusing so let's go back to the whoopee cushions. *whoopee*
Okay, everyone, time for the stretch. Let me hear ya!
A ONE! A TWO! A THREE!
Take me out to the Pirate's Nest
Take me out on the town
Give me my notes and pour me some rum
We'll drink and read until we get dumb
For it's root, root root through your privacy
We report with no shame!
And it's one! Two! Three! Just four notes left!
Then we'll do it tomorrow again!
Jessica and Olive compared stories of how crazy this town is. Olive promised Sia to get her some better nicknames than the one she goes by. Jessica and Victor compared their respective worlds' Captain Americas (different) and smells of Wolverine (same, and awful). And Olive bonded with Victor about California before she had to start asking questions about him being part robot.
And that's it! Welcome new people, welcome back returning people, thanks for sticking around people who didn't go anywhere at all, and good riddance people who left! Just remember, no matter how weird things get out there, you'll always be able to hear about that weirdness here on WTFH Radio. *whoopee*
Now you're at school, where you'll learn a great many things
About the world and who you are
But is that it?
No. Definitely no. Positively no!
Decidedly no!

Okay, everyone, time for the stretch. Let me hear ya!
A ONE! A TWO! A THREE!
Take me out to the Pirate's Nest
Take me out on the town
Give me my notes and pour me some rum
We'll drink and read until we get dumb
For it's root, root root through your privacy
We report with no shame!
And it's one! Two! Three! Just four notes left!
Then we'll do it tomorrow again!
Jessica and Olive compared stories of how crazy this town is. Olive promised Sia to get her some better nicknames than the one she goes by. Jessica and Victor compared their respective worlds' Captain Americas (different) and smells of Wolverine (same, and awful). And Olive bonded with Victor about California before she had to start asking questions about him being part robot.
And that's it! Welcome new people, welcome back returning people, thanks for sticking around people who didn't go anywhere at all, and good riddance people who left! Just remember, no matter how weird things get out there, you'll always be able to hear about that weirdness here on WTFH Radio. *whoopee*
