Fandom Radio, Monday, August 28th

Heh, just couldn't let me go, guys?

*Chittering*

Yeah, I knew you loved me. Let's see those notes so I can get back to doing nothing of any importance at all, as my Monday mornings really ought to be. Hey, Fandom. This is Kanan in the mornings with drunken squirrel news, bringing you everything you never wanted the rest of the residents of the island to hear. Welcome aboard, new folks. I'll let you in on a little secret early and just tell you to stock up on bribery rum if you ever want anything in your life to be private again.

And with that... Let's start with the dorms, because the excitement over at the school doesn't start until today. Apparently Paris was in a common room yelling at politics on the television, which, frankly, sounds exhausting. Gratuity stopped in to comment on the yelling, chat about the messed-up politics of the world past the causeway and Paris' aspirations for Harvard.

What's a Harvard?

*Chittering*

Ah. Sounds like too much work. Next we have notes for town, which is finally starting to smell less like kriffing fish, and if that courtesy would kindly extend to the hull of my ship now, I'd be ever so grateful.

In the morning out at the preserve, Aloy was pondering ways to get back home in her makeshift camp. Oh boy. Is anyone gonna tell her how hard it is to get out of here if you don't know how to get back once you arrive? This place really likes to keep people. Octavia started Aloy by stepping on a branch, which led to a raised bow and a conversation about people who live in buildings. Or about what the woods are for? I imagine people around this place would all give wildly different answers to that one. Jalian wandered by and offered a more pleasant greeting and an explanation of the island and its money, before handing Aloy what she had left, since she's leaving soon anyway. So, an educational chat all around.

It was moving day over at 33 Apocalypse, with Anders hefting boxes around and Dante practically juggling them, like a showoff. They chatted about getting the rest of their stuff - and the cats - settled in for a while, and then Kathy stopped by with moving day cupcakes, possibly as a bribe for them to forgive her for not helping with the moving.

Over at the Groovy Tunes in what used to be the Boards building, Jono had rearranged the marquee to announce the move. Breq wandered in upon hearing the music from outside, and chatted with Jono... presumably. The squirrels are pretty sure there was telepathy involved, but Jono did end up showing her some of the remaining musical stock. Ino stopped by too, and demanded Jono entertain her, so he played something the squirrels are referring to as a 'perky pop song' on guitar, which she seemed pretty thrilled about... Thrilled enough that it inspired them to write another, perkier one to accompany it. Best of luck to you both.

I was over at Luke's with the usual pancake mountain, mostly just happy that the place seemed more or less back to normal. Summer showed up for her usual visit, which involved a lot of gushing over her, like, totally brilliant Grampa.

Teenagers hurt my head.

And, finally, Sparkle was over at Demon Marcus arguing with insurance folks when Ino paid him a visit with hot chocolate, waited for him to get off the phone, and then went to get more hot chocolate. I need somebody in my life who'll do that for me, clearly. Or at least make runs for blue milk now and again. Or does that sound too domestic? Scratch everything I said if that sounds too domestic.

And that looks like all the notes the squirrels thought to take. If you're new to the island... yeah, you'll either get used to it or hate it, but either way, just remember that bribery rum thing. It'll be useful, I promise.
