Fandom Radio, Thursday (9/5)
Keyleth: Happy first Thursday of the semester, everybody!
Beau: Aw, can you not, I have a headache.
Keyleth: What do you have against cheerfulness, anyway?
Beau: It's not the cheerfulness! It's the volume. And the squealing.
Keyleth: I do not -- no, you know what, I'm ignoring that. Anyway, hi, new kids still getting used to this whole radio concept, I'm Keyleth.
Beau: Who nearly got herself chased by a mob of squirrels for trying to turn into one to sneak past the picket line outside. Anyway, this is Beauregard. 'sup. How're you all adjusting to the whole wildlife voyeurism [BEEP] so far? It's kinda slightly less weird when it's the squirrels, I gotta say. This gremlin thing is a little disturbing, no, Keyleth, do not even try to say they're kind of cute.
Keyleth: But --
*rustling noises*
Beau: Maaaaaaaaaybe you can go read the School notes since that's sort of your beat, you know, since you go there.
Keyleth: Oh, sure! I can do that. Ethics did introductions today, and that's going to be a theme this week so, you know, I'm not just repeating myself for no reason, okay? Eleanor was kind of really hung over in class and got some sympathy from Tisarwat for it --
Beau: Yeah, I feel you. Like, right now, actually.
Keyleth: -- and then we all had to introduce ourselves and talk about the second dumbest decision we ever made.
Beau: Man. You know, I thought it was gonna be, like, super boring not having the weekly shenanigans to report on now? But Anakin just switches to more, I don't know, academic ways to [BEEP] with everybody, I guess. That's kinda impressive, dude.
Keyleth: And -- wow, can you believe we actually have a class called So You Want to Be a Pirate?
Beau: . . . not a career choice I've ever considered.
Keyleth: There isn't exactly a whole lot of ocean in your part of Wildemount, is there?
Beau: I mean, there's lakes and stuff, but -- anyway.
Keyleth: Right. Anyway. Duke had the class meeting on board a ship -- not a real one, it's in the Danger Shop, and you'll all get used to that too, I promise -- and for introductions they had to talk a little bit about their favorite pirates. I'm not sure I've ever thought about having an answer to that question, myself. And then -- oh, that's neat! My new little sibling Elisabeth found the library and was really excited to find out that the books are alive because it reminds her of the Great Library back home. And then Constantine gave her a job as a library aide since she just started putting books away like an expert, and wow, congrats! That was easy!
Beau: You know, I used to work in a library for a bit -- wait, back up, did you say the books are alive? Hang on. Look where we are. I don't know why I'm asking. Nothing going on in the Dorms today, but --
Keyleth: You know, I was telling Sabine the other day that I think we're overdue for a party?
Beau: . . . sure. Anyway, Town was pretty busy. Peter was lecturing the plants at Covent Garden Flowers about how it's not cool to eat people, 'cause that's totally normal flower shop behavior, and Regina was super suspicious because everything at Luke's seemed normal, and that includes the busboy, like, diving into the freezer while yelling about how everything was fine. They're hiring, by the way. So is Turtle and Canary. Shunsui was sleeping on his shift, a totally legit thing to do, and then Eleanor showed up all hung over, still, to buy a bunch of snacks and booze. I like your priorities, new kid. Plus she got Shunsui to give her a 50% discount that I guess involved drinking a shot of sake? I'd be into it if more businesses followed that example for sales and [BEEP]. Over at Caritas Tino was trying to pick fights with Summer through the suggestion box, and look, man. I'm not against a little passive-aggressiveness sometimes, but that's just sad. Seivarden wanted whiskey and nothing pumpkin, and told Summer that after the summer we had she wasn't going to complain about this place being boring.
Keyleth: Yikes. Yeah. Why invite that kind of trouble?
Beau: I was gonna say boredom, but. Yeah. Rey had some questions about the pumpkin pie Jello shots and talked to Summer about her training and her new apartment and Summer's big move prep. She also met Seivarden -- sorry, Rey -- who remembers reporting on her on radio because she was like always calling Kanan on Fridays. That doesn't make this whole radio thing sound less creepy, you know? There was axe throwing going on at Devil's Nest -- wait, what? So, big surprise, Amaya was where the weapons are, catching up with Jack and testing out the axes.
Keyleth: I . . . think I'll stay away from there. I don't think maiming is a good look for me.
Beau: I mean, they wouldn't let you in anyway, that's the bar that actually has, like, age restrictions. Duke like, super needed a drink after teaching his class and was surprised that the axe throwing thing was real, and heard a bunch from Jack about the weird [BEEP] that happens around here. You get used to it. Like ninety percent of it's actually not that bad. Weird, obviously. But kinda okay. Ish. Sparkle wanted to know if he had to save the drinking for after the axe throwing, and. Why? I wouldn't.
Keyleth: Oh, wow. Really? Really?
Beau: What?
Keyleth: Never mind because oh my gosh don't you want to read this note because it's about your friends?
Beau: Huh? Sure. So I guess Liam and Verity had like a picnic date out on the beach and then . . . Verity proposed to Liam. Who was all surprised because he was planning the same thing except she beat him to it. So like. They're engaged now. Oh yeah, that's a thing people do sometimes, huh?
Keyleth: Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Beau: Dude. You're going to make all the dogs at the shelter go out of their minds.
Keyleth: Can we focus on the important things here? I'll see them in class in a little bit but oh wow congratulations!
Beau: Yeah. Yeah, um, congratulations? And, like, good job on being faster there, Verity. And thanks for not making me have to report on something [BEEP]ing [BEEP]ty happening to one or both of you. For once.
So anyway, like, yeah. I think we're ending on that note before my cohost here shatters glass, so . . . until next week, everybody.
Keyleth: Bye! This is Radio Ex--
Beau: Oh, for --
