Fandom Radio: Thursday, May 24th, 2007
Pam: ...is it on?
Jim: Yep. See that light? The one that says "ON AIR"?
Pam: ...shut up, I didn't see it before. Um, hi people! This is Pam!
Jim: And this is Jim.
Workshops, where you get credit for being obnoxious
Pam: So, to start off, there was some kind of food in the cafeteria, and the whole yay-let's-rebuild-the-exploded-school thing is still going strong today. Nice to see that just because it's a...um, Thursday, you guys haven't stopped. Keep up the hard work!
Jim: Unlike that slacker Bridge, who didn't open up the library so Sam had to. Sabriel turns in an atlas, Setsuna and Ami turn in a pass for Special Collections, and Dean mocks Sam for always being in the library. Listen to him, Sam. If you don't get out every now and then, people might mistake you for a book.
Pam: A really...really tall book. With floppy hair. And, um...no pages? Anyway, Everything You Need to Know About Magic studies divination techniques, and I'm not really sure what that means but it sounds unfun. They use tarot cards, playing cards, apples, dandelion clocks -- what? -- pendulums and mirrors. I wonder what a dandelion clock is. Do you think it tells the times you'll be especially hayfever-y? And how would apples and mirrors be used for even kind of the same thing?
Jim: I think that could be best explained by saying, "It's magic!" In Self Confidence the Ares Way - taught by, shock of shocks, Ares - the students were hapless villagers banding together against an evil warlord. Ares - the god of war - was on the warlord's side. This class is nothing but shocking revelations, I swear. Naminé was unsure of what was going on with her running class, which is probably a bad thing for the TA in Self Confidence to admit, and Katara asked her if Ares was serious. My assumption is that you always assume that somebody who says they're the god of war is serious, unless they're dressed like a mime. Then you know they're really serious.
Pam: What if they're dressed as a clown?
Jim: Then they're serious about bringing the laughter.
Pam: What about slacker clowns and mimes, though?
Jim: They're serious about slacking.
Pam: Anyway, in Glitter, where I guess people are serious about their need for sparkles and stuff, they get homework -- what kind of homework can you be assigned for something called 'Glitter'? "Okay, kids, we're done for today. Your assignment is to watch a horrible Mariah Carey movie and try not lose any brain cells!"? So, then they have sparkly cupcakes, ooh, and...um, a pink sparkly pony was left for Rory. Then she corners Buffy to ask about the glitter-cabin deal, which I think should be the standard method of apology from now on. Oops, Jim! Sorry! I bumped your elbow! I'm gonna go glitter Platypus, okay?
Jim: People are going to know that it was you.
Pam: ...I didn't know I had to be secretive about it.
Jim: It keeps people from getting mad at you when they wake up to a shiny cabin. But that's only if they're the kind of people who would be mad about a shiny cabin. Back to school stuff, History of Magic had a sub today. My notes do not say that he was a serious mime. Substitute Chris asks Lana why she's not in the clinic and I hope she had a doctor's note. The class itself roleplay accusing and accuseeing each other of being witches. Substitute Chris is the judge. Nope, definitely not a mime. Mimes can't be judges.
Pam: Is 'accuseeing' a word?
Jim: Sure it is. Everyone listening has heard it on the radio, so it has to be a word.
Pam: Words don't work like that. In Building a Better Fighter, they had a battle thing and the winner was a...little bitty penguin with a tinfoil sword.
Jim: Is it too late to sign up for that class?
Pam: Maybe you'll find out that someone else already signed you up for it without you even knowing. That would be a fun surprise.
Jim: Oh, hey, time to move on to...
Cabins. Where there's a lot of fire but in a positive way.
Jim: Nothing happens in the morning, but in the afternoon Aeryn beats the living crap out of a punching bag. Qui-Gon stops by and they talk about a planet they've both been to. And then... That can't be right.
Pam: What? Aravis and Vi talk about weapons, and Aeryn and Vi meet, and...Aravis and Aeryn eat puppies and start a bonfire. Either the squirrels are crazy, or Aeryn is scarier than I thought. As is some new kid.
Jim: On behalf of both Pam and myself, I'd like to take a moment to say that we do not condone the eating of puppies. Bonfires are okay. Eating puppies is not.
Pam: Well, eating puppies without babysauce is not. Let's be practical here.
Jim: Good point. At the Cthulhu campfire, Dawn was sore after class and Dean was nice enough to give her painkillers. Considering the circumstances, I'm sure they'd plea down to painmanslaughterers. Molly told Dawn
about how she was attacked in the woods,
Willow told Dawn how to spar with a slayer, Naminé asks if Dawn's okay, and Sam is a dork at Dawn. No word on if she thought he was a book.
Pam: Probably not. Just a guess. So, over at the Sphinx campfire, a stuffed cat talks to a princess. ...ooookay, I'm not sure whether it worries me or not that none of those things surprise me anymore. And last night, our cabin was busy -- looks like Isabel got in late and then wrote a letter, but didn't wake up Annette, who -- HEY, Annette is the talker! I thought that was her.
Jim: It should be both. In the Basilisk living room, Teddy napped. Meanwhile, Chad and Inara try to figure out how to stave off boredom without poking holes in your side. That can't be healthy.
Pam: I bet it'd be okay if they were made of clay like that one green guy. Savannah and Eve talk about magic, and I really hope that dandelion clocks came up in conversation. Meanwhile, Jude tells Rikku about a bad phone call from home. Uh oh.
Jim: Moving on from that potentially unpleasant news, we move to...
Town. Where people live and sell things.
Jim: Mel patrols the graveyard only to find Bridge. Bridge finds Twinkies in Mel's future. It's a match made in Hostess. Sokka opened the post office and probably found an envelope. Mary opened the Arms Hotel and hoped to find a chef. Gwynn went into the Preserve and was found by a scary guy and then Conner. Buster Bluth was in the Preserve, too, and the scary guy found out that Buster is a monster. A MONSTER.
Pam: ...isn't that your teacher who th...who KNOWS you're a cyborg?
Jim: It takes a mechanical monster to know one.
Pam:I guess he isn't solar-powered like you, though.Jude opened Luke's Diner, and was visited by the princess and the stuffed cat. And Charlie opens Groovy Tunes and is visited by the princess and her toy cat, a singing Dean, and Melody.
Jim: Roy opens the Trooper Station and meet the princess and the cat. The Perk is busy and Dale is there to lead the parade of customers. He talks to Emma, Mary, Aly, Kenpachi, Yachiru, and Laura. Aly and Emma also talk to each other. And I just got to call a bunch of teachers by their first names and there's not a thing they can do about it. Not that they care, but still.
Pam: I'll give you a dollar to do it in class.
Jim: ... Okay. It's a deal.
Pam: Yay! Okay, Millie opens Book Haven, and Tannim opens that one magic store, where I hope dandelion clocks are sold. Turtle and Charlie stop by. Meanwhile, Dr. Wilson and Mr. Aziraphale talk about growing up, and see how I didn't use first names? Mr. Kenpachi stays at home for the night, too, and he gives the tiny penguin back to Mr. Deadpool.
Jim: Tino was alone in Caritas, while the Devil's Nest had a few more customers, including Aziraphale (who made origami ducks) and
Squall. Lucifer and Aziraphale had a chat that involved no violence. Good job, gentlemen.
Pam: Over in the clinic, Dr. Wilson is a little preoccupied, and Johnny visits Lana and Jim. Later, Doogie's quietness was short-lived. Conner brought in a bloody Gwynn. Oh, ow. I hope she's okay. I have a really nasty paper cut on my thumb and it hurts like hell, so...my sympathies. And finally, the princess and her cat wander around the park and Stanley is confused.
Pam:...and I think that's it.
Jim: Yep. That's the end of our notes. Thank to everyone out there who made tonight possible. Pam, of course. The squirrels. My parents, I couldn't have done it without you. And Nicholas Tesla, one of the many people credited with the invention of the radio. I choose you because you have a cool name.
Pam: That is a cool name. And you're a dork.
Night, everyone!
