Well, that's over with. All the invading visitors have been run off, or disappeared, back to wherever it is they are when they're not here. Are you relieved? That might be the one time I have anything in common with you, so don't get used to it.
School
Ordinarily this report would be as free of school-related activity as a certain spherical idiot is of brains, but that whole pesky Parents' Weekend thing means that Kaidan had office hours and got a happy birthday phone call from . . . reportedly, his parents, but are we sure about that? Technology and all, it's really easy to -- anyway. Anakin Skywalker was prepared for any office-invading visitors with coffee and aspirin. How he planned to use them, the squirrels haven't bothered to tell me, but throwing seems like a good idea.
Dorms
Nothing was going on in that thing you call a dorm. All of you could have been hiding. If you were, congratulations. If you weren't, I don't know what to tell you, but I have my doubts about how well you'd score in a self-preservation test.
Oh, wait. Another squirrel just showed up. All of you who showed up in the fifth floor common room to join Jessica and her Lucas Lee movie are not getting a note in the commendations section of your file. I don't care if there was popcorn. At least Olive was complaining about the movie when she wasn't boo-hooing about how horrible her best friend is -- well, there's some points off for vocabulary comprehension -- or asking about how Jessica's visit from her cousin was, but how the squirrels managed to figure that out when she was facedown on the couch is either a mystery, or says something about the squirrels' . . . creativity. Sia and Jessica discussed the possibility of another, undiscovered high school like this one in a different world. It's a multiversal nexus, of course there's a possibility. When Olive apparently got bored of depriving herself of oxygen in the couch cushions, she switched to eating ice cream instead and talking to Sia about her best friend, Sia's great-grandparents, and avoiding the potato -- I endorse that, actually. Scientific evidence may be pointing to the benefits of minimizing your exposure to starches.
*derisive chittering*
Oh, as if you'd know.
Town
You know how the other night was the full moon? That made yesterday morning a lot of fun for everyone at Derek's mansion. Did Scott know it was going to be a full moon? He wasn't telling Derek. Oh, and Derek's dog likes Scott more, so that's funny. Know what else is funny? Derek trying to convince Alcide to put on pants. That didn't work very well. Stiles didn't mind, at least not until he got sent on an underwear-finding mission. Alcide might not be wrong about him being a well-trained errand boy. He did show up with coffee and the dog and then get into a name-calling fight with Derek over whether or not violence is necessary. Of course it is, under the right circumstances. Derek and Jack did a head-count, realized the number hadn't gone down, and decided to be impressed that everyone survived.
[Two seconds of cheesy prerecorded sitcom laugh track]
Clint was guilty about something when he showed up at the house. In other news, water is wet, Wheatley's a moron, and Derek has a house full of werewolves, but he only filled Clint in on one of those things. Figure out for yourself which one it was.
It was much quieter at Kaidan's house, even if he was watching action movies and drinking beer with Joker. Probably due to the lack of a houseful of werewolves.
Korra was out in the preserve getting hugs from her guests. So we've established you all have working arms. That's nice.
For everyone who tried to keep to a normal schedule, and I do emphasize tried because assuming otherwise is far more faith in human-or-other nature than there's any scientific basis for there to be, a few businesses opened like usual. That doesn't mean they weren't invaded by some of the giant horde of visitors: Sparkle's little 'look at me, I'm overdressed for burning ugly sweaters' shift at Demon Marcus got interrupted by Isabelle. Who was there to do some shopping, but managed to squeeze in some surprise about people not really hiding who they are around here.
*ding* [Irony detector activated. Irony level at --] *FZZZZZZZT*
Coulson apparently decided to make the weekend's theme fit the weapons at Wellspring Arms by making a parent-and-child shotgun display. That's not that strange. Sentry turrets are really good at picking up concepts of social units. It makes them useless to me, but it happens. Speaking of which, the droids at Goodvalor's Little Bivoli had no reported visitors, but looked less than happy. Correlation? Maybe. At the clinic, Stark was reportedly lonely even with cupcakes and the nurses to talk to.
. . . in the event that the cupcakes talk back, you are encouraged to disregard any advice they give. In the event that the nurses talk back, well, that's your fault for starting a conversation in the first place.
I hate every single one of you that started a conversation at the brunch, by the way. You people with your cookies and stickers and make-new-friends bingo cards. Too bad there wasn't a bingo card for planning to spend more time together, or Victor and Hank Pym would have a head start. Jace and Alec had to make sure Isabelle hadn't killed anyone in town . . . yet. Yet? I think I might like her. The squirrels don't like Jackson, though, since there's some very angry, tiny, barely legible scribble here about how someone should throw him in the lake for dumping Lydia via text message. Having her track him down at the brunch about it isn't enough for these bloodthirsty little rodents. Lin and Tenzin had to chase Korra away from the brunch after she ran off. Into the preserve, possibly.
Tahiri is not a student according to these notes, and really I could have left that out because it's funny to confuse you but I'm not that desperate for amusement yet, surprised Anakin-with-the-hair by existing, apparently. Topher confused Hank by introducing himself like someone who'd met a different version of the same person. I don't know why that's so confusing. Oh, look, apparently Percy told Luke about his dad finding out they were dating. Apparently, Percy wasn't taking this too calmly. Anakin -- the little one -- checked in with Jaina -- also the little one -- about whether anything new came up at home. Uncle Bantha thought this Jaina was the other one. [*BZZT!* sound effect.] Congratulations, now you've met two of them. Not-the-little-Anakin got this Jaina confused with the other one too, and then told her he teaches Ethics. That went well.
Rosemary didn't realize Rilla was a student. She was also surprised that Rilla's raising someone else's baby. So much surprise going around this weekend. Like goldfish being surprised by the same things over and over -- that's a lie, by the way. Goldfish actually have a memory span, but it's funny to picture all of you as goldfish. Olive's parents were keeping track of how many boys they've either embarrassed her in front of or scared away. I think I like them. Tommy showed up at brunch without actually having to be dragged there, and discussed tracking down Scarlet Witch with Billy sometime. Bantha is not impressed by Peter's brain or his planet. Unless you can make a face like that gymnast who keeps getting Photoshopped into pictures, Bantha, I'm not impressed either. Jeremy talked to his mother about his classes and what birthday plans he and Juliet have. Is there a surprise? [*party-favor-horn sound effect*] I like surprises.
Speaking of which, Olive smacked Jim in the head for getting to know her friend Rhiannon a little too well. Surprise, Jim! Surprise for you, too, Chuck: you got to meet Jorah, Dany's visitor. Wasn't that fun and intimidating, unlike Ellie introducing herself to Dany?
Back to business news, Jaina, the adult one, for those of you capable of keeping track, brought Jag to work with her at the Devil's Nest. He got to see all kinds of exciting things, like Alcide ordering a beer and explaining that he's not exactly friends with Eric because of being a werewolf, or the lack of poles in the club.
. . . you have a strange sense of fun, rodents. Tahiri came in and talked at Jaina. A lot. In related news, the air in Devil's Nest ran a little bit short on oxygen. Jono came in to celebrate successfully dealing with parents by drinking a lot, letting Jubilee buy him the first round, talking to Jaina about meeting different versions of people they know, and turning down Angelo's offer of going somewhere else to get in a bar fight.
You know, that's not a bad idea, actually. I think I'll go do that now. Oh, don't ask me how. I just will.
