Fandom Radio, Friday, June 22, 2007
"Good evening, Fandom! Congratulations on surviving your first whatever the heck that was that I'll be discussing later on in the notes. I, of course, was safely enjoying the relative cool and safety of my basement and missed everything."
"Hah! Faked you all out. No invasion yet. You're all just going to have to pay attention to the rest of the broadcast."
Classes: Into the wild blue yonder
"At the little construction project that could, Xander teaches Bel and Connor how to have fun with nail guns. Now, I may be new to the planet, but doesn't that generally involve some kind of fabric and restraints of some kind and...hmmm. You're much too young for that. Come see me in a few years and we'll discuss it. Phoebe and Gwynn show up to ogle. Nice, girls. Well played. The library was quiet, so hopefully Thursday got all of her audiovisual equipment properly sorted."
"In Mechanics, they tried to build simple robots. In Flight and Flying, the students boarded an Imperial Shuttle. With Anakin Skywalker, of course. And now I know there's a ship in town and...never mind about that either." *sounds of writing* "Students had the option of wearing space trooper outfits--oooh, interesting choice there, Anakin--Luke didn't want to wear his, maybe because Mel told him he was too short. Did they make you look stumpy, Luke? I was watching What Not to Wear, and they were very clear that looking stumpy was a bad thing. If so, I applaud your style choice. Anakin flies the shuttle into space, and our intrepid space squirrel reported that the students tested their skills in the asteroid belt and again in empty space. Lucas showed up early for a tour of the shuttle, Billy apologized for missing class, and Aeryn and Anakin discuss wedding plans."
*pause*
"Wait, isn't Aeryn engaged to that obnoxious boy who tried to marry me for sweets? I'm suddenly very confused."
Dorms: No invasions here, thanks, we gave in town
"Oh, maybe this explains it. Apparently John woke Aeryn this morning so they could box together. Maybe she was too good and he called off the wedding? Rikku went to Aravis' room to discuss the less intelligent gender, Karal was working hard--hopefully for my class, Billy writes a letter home, and Bel sends out e-mail. Isabel unpacks and reads a book."
"Later this evening, Tori started out on the third floor, but moved to the fifth floor, to watch the Wormhole X-Treme series finale with John Sheppard. Oh, Wormhole X-Treme! I love that show, especially Alav, who is just charming but absolutely should have punched...never mind, the squirrels have told me that's something called a spoiler and are threatening me at nut-point if I don't stop talking. So, yes. I said nothing. Dawn discusses the show with John like a couple of geeks and she shares some snacks with Robin. Chad and Luke discuss the rollicking good time that was the fun run, Robin meets Chad's mutant cat, and John Sheppard anxiously talks to Chad and the cat. John? Anxious around a feline? Hmmm. Must have been a male."
"Adam meets the freak cat, and he and Chad discuss the fun run. You would think you people didn't get invaded regularly. Why is this a surprise? Adam and John also discuss the fun run, and Luke and Adam compare injuries. Ooh, how cute! Do you have matching bandages, as well? Naminé asks Dawn what's so extreme about wormholes and awwws over Chad's cat. Hmmm. Perhaps he has two of them? Adam also waves to Naminé, but he seems to be having some pain in his arm. Awww, poor kid."
"Robin and Luke discussed the invading creatures, Lukewhines complains to John about getting continually attacked, Dawn gets the details of the attack from Luke, including news of Anakin singing--oh, that must have been a treat--Adam promises to help Robin get earlier episodes of the show, Tori and Robin discuss today's topic du jour, Tori and Luke check to make sure the other is uninjured, and I'm sorry, wasn't Luke just complaining about his injuries? Luke tells Donatello that Jaina should never date--oh, I'm sure she'll be thrilled with that, John explains that the dorms are quieter because of a camping trip, and Robin tells Donatello about Wormhole X-Treme. Oh! Did you mention the part were Colonel Stacy...right. No need to point those acorns at me. I'm stopping, I promise."
Town: Where other things happened, but there were invasions
"Christian had a quiet day in the Clinic and Musabi worked for Setsuna in a very quiet Devil's Nest. Xander types up an e-mail, and Bridge shows up to pounce. Hamlet shows up at Luke's Diner to inquire about the lutefisk. Which just sounds...caustic. Yum."
"Leo opens the Photo Hut. The campers and chaperones prepare to head out, Charlie wonders why Marco hates the outdoors, Gavin and Ronan discuss Deadpool getting them lost, but I'm not sure whether that's that they think he's going to, or that they wish he would. Alec and Ronan discuss workshops, Setsuna and Billy discuss injuries--and again, no idea whether that's past, present, or future--Billy and Charlie talk about the camping trip, and Ronan and Haku discuss packing for the trip. Billy and Teddy discuss Deadpool and the chaperones are there. Eventually, the bus leaves, and the town weeps from the heartbreak. Or something. Sokka and Haku have never ridden one before, so that should be entertaining for them."
"Gabriel opens the church, and he and Karal compare and contrast their hair care products. Or maybe their religions. There was a smudge, I swear. Finally, Liz opens the post office."
Friday Event: Will no one think of the teal deer?
"Now, as some of you may know, there was a fun run in the park today, to benefit the teal deer. There was pre-race gathering, complete with something called 'Willow cookies', friendly waving, chatting between Aly and Mary, sympathy for nameless troopers, stretching, and, best of all, recreational gambling. Then, of course, there is some talking. John and Ronan discuss running, Charlie questions the existence of Teal Deer, and Luke gets a good luck kiss from Tori. Aaah, that's more like it. I approve."
"Of course, into each life a little rain must fall. Or, in the case of Fandom, into each race a bunch of meteorites. Which I'm sure is almost the same thing, really. And inside the meteorites were cute fuzzy creatures. Which were, I'm given to understand, skritchable. I haven't even read to the end of the notes and I know this isn't going to end well. I just have that kind of feeling. Anyway, Phoebe thinks hers is cute, Dale takes a lot of notes about his, Mary was unsurprised by the weirdness but thinks her creature is cute, Setsuna pats hers..."
*pause*
"What is wrong with you people? Some creatures fall out of the atmosphere, you have no idea what they are, so you touch them? Just because they're adorable? In what universe is this a good idea? Next you'll tell me you eat everything you find sitting out in a laboratory. Or that a startlingly attractive woman in scanty clothing could gain power by sleeping with powerful men and women. Wait."
*clears throat*
"As I was saying, Aravis is surprised by her creature, Adam is wary of his--see, nice sensible reaction there, thank you--and Tori stares at hers. Which isn't particularly productive, but still understandable."
"The runners were all set to go when the meteorites fell from the sky. And...holy god, how you humans managed to get this far in your evolution is a complete mystery. Right then. Moving on..."
"Mel, who I had previously thought was very sane names her creature, Turtle baby talks--oh my god--to hers before telling Charlie to make them stop being so cute, Steve Peter denies maternity which seems not only cruel, but unnecessarily confusing as far as gender issues are concerned, Ronan pets his creature--not dirty, I presume, Seely wants to introduce his to his girlfriend Cuddles, Andros is awkward around them, Savannah pets hers, and John who has the survival skills of a non-virgin in a horror movie snuggles with his."
"Sheppard, you flunk. I'm not kidding about this."
"In what should be a large surprise to NOBODY, the creatures become vicious and evil. Luke uses Jedi skills--whatever those are--to fight the creatures, and Anakin whipped out his lightsaber. In public? Really? I had no idea this was that kind of a town. Our ever-vigilant sheriff tries to let them off with a warning. Oh, yes. I feel much safer now, thanks."
"Then, in an inspiring moment, Chad plays different music to stop the creatures. Rory ends up singing something called Ever the Same, and Anakin, John Sheppard, Charlie, Dale Cooper, Hamlet, and Willow all joined in with the singing. I'm told this was slightly less than inspiring as far as tonality is concerned. Apparently this was successful, because the creatures ran back to their shells in fear. Wow, it was that bad? I'm almost impressed. Anyway, once they were there, Rikku, Roy, and Aly came up with an explosive plan to send them back where they came from and Tori and Steve Peter offer their assistance. Hurrah explosives! Any plan with explosives involved must be fun. Er, effective. That's completely what I meant, yes. Andros helps round up the creatures and Isabel uses her mojo to change the structure of the net. Finally, Aly and Rikku set off the explosives and there is a very large explosion, which I assume was successful as I am not currently overrun by evil creatures. So, if you see Aly or Rikku, please give them chocolate or baked goods, or a random hug in thanks for saving your stupid unevolved..."
*clears throat*
"Good night. Please remember that just because something is cute doesn't mean it's not dangerous. Unless it's wearing pigtails and black leather, and then it's just plain adorable."
