Fandom Radio, Saturday, February 2
Sam: Good evening, Fandom. I guess that should be addressed to anyone out there who might be listening, whether you live here, or are just visiting for the weekend.
Dean: Unless you're of the demonic persuasion in which case, get the hell off our island.
Sam: Yeah, we're way past being in the mood to deal politely with that sort of thing.
Dean: So you're fairly warned.
Sam: Judging from the stack of notes here, it looks like those of you who aren't demons were very busy today, hopefully being good.
Dean: Yeah, probably not. You want to start or should I?
Sam: I'm trying to hold onto at least a little hope. And you can start.
School, where the learning gets smacked with the pause button on the weekends
Dean: As usual on Saturday Mac opened the library and Liir came by to get books.
Dorms, where the fun gets paused until everyone gets out of bed
Dean: Over in the dorms, Hoshi worked at mastering a dead language. Been there, done that, have the conjugated Latin to prove it.
I went and talked with Karal about things that aren't any business of squirrels and Andrew gushed at Karal about his date with Liir.
Later on, Nana caused Jeff and Karal to fall into locker 327. Aw, crap.
Sam: Maybe they'll come right back out tomorrow? After having had a completely safe and not harmful trip?
Dean: Stupid portals. Lana was sick and Adam hung out in his room.
AJ and Beauty woke up in a hayloft and he tells her she's his girl. And Peter Petrelli visited Romeo to ask if he was into Brooke. And wow is this broadcast getting girly.
Sam: Hey, Peter is not girly, even with his hair.
Dean: I was talking about the matchmaking thing but now that you mention it...
Sam: Oh, shut up. Jerk.
Dean: Bitch. Amber called home to talk about her egg baby and Luke called home to break some news to his sister. Possibly about egg babies, it doesn't say.
Reno took Rikku to the woods and talked about his issues with mercCon.
Down in the gym this morning, Liir practiced some of his training. John came in to work with the speed bag and Liir gets all blushy when he talked about dating Andrew.
Dawn looked tired but got on the treadmill and then talked with Liir about... pretty much everything it looks like. She told John that she was trying to tire herself out and he suggested something dirty. Do you want to hit him or should I?
Sam: That's definitely my job.
Dean: I'll leave you to it then. Though let me know if you need backup. Andrew staked out a spot on the bleachers and talked to Liir and there apparently was kissing and hand squeezing and stretching.
In the fifth floor common room this morning Tamaki ate cereal and sketched costume ideas. Valentine wandered in and Tamaki offered him cereal.
Sokka discussed epic chicken love triangles with Valentine. I'm not even going to ask.
Romeo and Valentine introduced themselves and discussed jello dragon semantics. Y'know it says a lot about this place that that doesn't sound remotely weird to me.
Sokka reminded Tamaki that he owed him food, Romeo and Sokka disccussed comraderie in Girls With Guns, and Tamaki and Romeo met.
And Jack looked for food.
Then this afternoon Sky napped on the couch in the fourth floor common room. Adam got a drink but didn't wake Sky up and neither did Troy who came in for pizza and got a blanket for sleeping beauty.
Sam: Meanwhile, if I fall asleep in the common room, I wake up to find myself being drawn on and teased. How is that fair?
Dean: Who says life is fair, princess?
Sam: Who said you can call me princess without me getting annoyed?
Dean: Go ahead and get annoyed -- give that bitchface a workout.
Town, where the fun never gets paused because no one sleeps, or so we've heard
Dean: Down in town, Mike and Mary came back from Vegas where Mike had accidentally got married. Okay, dude? You might want to stick to drunk dialing instead of drunk marrying in the future.
Sam: How do you accidentally get married? There's more than one place to stop things if you need to.
Dean: You're really really drunk, I think. Really. Jeff was at the Arms. Tusky and Weasel, Murdock,Natasha and Bucky,Beatrix and BB, and Jennifer all had breakfast. And Mary slipped into the hotel. Probably to have breakfast.
GMB was at the banana stand and Gourry Gabriev stopped by to purchase a huge order. Again I'm manfully resisting the obvious jokes. Mary and GMB reunite and Mary reassured him that everything was okay. No drunk weddings for her.
Turtle had a buy one get one free sale at T&C and G'kar stopped in to talk business and Marco wanted numbers crunched at him.
Michael opened Luke's and Ino stopped by all excited about the mercCon so Michael asked her to go with him tomorrow.
Isabel had Fast Eddie's all set up for Wyatt's birthday. There were presents and mingling like there usually is at parties.
Isabel was happy that Michael showed up and then proceeded to TMI at him. Ah, the joys of freaking out your little brother.
Sam: I don't know what you're talking about, there's no joy in that at all.
Dean: Trust me. There totally is. She also welcomed Johnny and Savannah and Hoshi, and asked Bridge about the Barbados.
Anders was there and so was Meg who discussed evil bats and cheesy rewards with Isabel and also discussed getting lucky with me.
Yeah, I was there too and Isabel and I discussed how our doubles are oversexed but how mine isn't a sewer rat.
Sam: No, he's part cat. That's totally different.
Dean: Trust me. It really really is. Bridge told Xander that next vacation, he's taking Xander along.
Wyatt got surprised and got smooches and flirting from Isabel, and Bridge teased Wyatt about being five years old. Only in the same way I'm actually 29.
Sam: I like you just fine the way you are, and not nearing 30.
Dean: Yeah, me too. There was also a monthly market that had booths from The Perk, JGOB, Stuff for Sale, and Chilly Boulder.
Jim had set up a booth to prank mercanaries, such a safe and boring business idea. He got hired by Sheppard to prank Gavin. Hear that Gavin? Duck and cover, dude.
Jen Scott opened the Pizza Palace, and Tino set up for D'Argo at Caritas, where Doom caused mischief. Over at the clinic Adah had the day shift and Wilson had the evening shift. Where nobody we know was actually a patient, which sounds like good news to me.
Sam: Very, very good news.
MercCon, where the pause button is too afraid to go for fear of accidentally getting assassinated
Sam: Elsewhere in town, the mercenary convention was seriously hopping today. There was a job board available where people could stick information about themselves for potential employers, as disturbing as that sounds. Taskmaster, Murdock, Heroes for Hire, Executive Operations, B. Kiddo, The Assassins Guild of Ankh-Morpork, and The Gunsmith Cats all took advantage of the board.
There was also a place where jobs could be posted. There was one to get a tattoo on the backside of Scott Summers, and another to kill someone named Wendy-bird. Seriously, we willingly let these people into our town?
Dean: Sounds like the prank booth back in the market.
Sam: I really wish it was. Finally, there was a place for people to meet and discuss contracts, and Jennifer used that to meet with Beatrix, to ask her about working for Jennifer’s organization.
There were morning panels, which is making this sound just like a sci-fi convention, if those sorts of things hosted people who kill people. The first panel was When to Bail if a Job Goes South, hosted by Puss in Boots, Jack “Weasel" Hammer, Beatrix, and Deadpool. They talked about "when to say when" on a job, and answered questions. Danny asked Weasel if he’d learned to not screw around with computers, and Beatrix hired him to punch Weasel. Then Beatrix was asked what it would take to make her run away.
After the panel, Danny, May, and Rally hung around to mingle. Where did some of these people get their names? Geez. Murdock decided he’s crazy for seeing a talking cat. Hopefully he won’t run into our talking frog while he’s here. And May complimented Puss on his hat.
The second workshop was "C4, your new best friend", hosted by Minnie May Hopkins. Jennifer wanted to know how old Minnie May was, and if she was selling, while Rikku was just curious about how C4 is made. Can “nowhere near the dorms" be part of the instructions?
After the panel, Rally informed Kerrigan that Minnie May knows her stuff, and Minnie May was there for anyone who wanted to talk to her.
The third panel was Mercenary Work for Good Guys, hosted by Danny Rand, who might be the only worthwhile person at this con. Jennifer wanted to know if it’s possible to complete missions without killing people, and Danny said yes. Deadpool wanted to know about Power Man, and Rikku wanted to know about what to do when there’s no one to turn the bad guys in to.
After the panel, Murdock said his group is a lot like Danny’s, except they don’t advertise, and Rikku wanted to know if it was really possible to be a mercenary and a good guy at the same time. I say no, but I’m not exactly a voice of experience here.
Dean: There's a lot of people who would say that about hunters too so glass houses, stones, etc.
Sam: Yeah, but hunters only go after people and things that are evil.
Dean: And we don't know what any given merc is going after so...
Sam: Yeah, you might be right. Especially since the next panel in the afternoon was "Butt-kicking for Goodness", hosted by Minsc and Boo. Okay, maybe not all of the people at this con are bad. Or maybe they’re delusional, I don’t know. They gave examples, like rescuing a woman from a gnoll stronghold or helping a guy kill an evil sorceress, and Murdock and Minsc got into a debate about whether or not the sorceress should be killed, while Rikku said both situations could be handled differently. Mr. Teatime said to kill the gnolls, while Ino suggested getting more information on the situation.
The panel also asked why people continue to fight the good fight after they finish their job. Danny admitted he’s in it for the violence, while Rikku said she likes stealing poisons, and Ino said she’s just looking for fun. Mr. Teatime was more interested in trying to figure out what makes a person an evil-doer.
After the panel, Reno and Rikku talked about how insane Minsc is, while Weasel asked Minsc about poker, and stole someone named Boo from him. That’s encouraging, really.
Dean: Maybe we should see about having a Hunter convention.
Sam: That would be awesome, although we might have to make sure Dad's out of town so no one tries to shoot him.
Dean: He does seem to have a way with people, doesn't he?
Sam: If by "way" you mean "bad way" then yes, he does. There was also a panel on "Finding the Weapon that’s Right for you, led by Jack "Weasel" Hammer, Alex Hayden, Beatrix Kiddo, Leon Montoya, Jennifer Mui, Mr. Teatime, and Deadpool. Everyone talked about their favorite weapons and answered questions. Weasel was asked about pressurized bullets, while Murdock talked to Beatrix about backup weapons. After the panel, Arashi said hi to Weasel, and encouraged him to hire someone for protection.
The "Ethics and You: When Booze Won't Help" panel was run by Gourry Gabriev, Reno, Rude, and Deadpool. Reno and Rude argued about their relationship and talked about their personal code of ethics while answering questions about whether or not there’s ever a time when booze doesn’t help. Rikku wanted to know if just sucking it up ever worked instead, and after the panel, she checked on Reno.
Dean: Maybe we should've tried booze after last weekend.
Sam: I thought about it, but I didn't think it would help.
Dean: I probably could've got drunk just off the fumes a few days ago.
Sam: Probably, and it's a very good thing you didn't try. Later, Jennifer Mui, Rude, Slade "Deathstroke" Wilson, and Deadpool did a panel on Risk vs. Reward, mainly talking about personal limits. Reno heckled from the crowd and nearly got smacked upside the head for his efforts.
Murdock held a workshop on the Art of Disguise, and Leon Montoya held a workshop titled "To Silence or Not to Silence, That is the Question".
And, since the mercs clearly didn’t have enough fun during the day, in the evening, there was a dinner for them at the Arms ballroom. Beatrix got her drink on, as did Murdock and Taskmaster. BB and Beatrix ate and talked. Murdock went for the chocolate cake like a smart man, and Beatrix took the time to chat with Mary about the hotel.
Dean: And drunk weddings probably.
Sam: Accidental drunk weddings, even. And that's all the notes I have.
Dean: So we're done?
Sam: I think so. Are you still feeling the need for a drink?
Dean: Maybe. Not for the same reasons as it would've been. You?
Sam: Only if you want to. I don't want you to have to drink alone.
Dean: 'Fraid I'll end up getting accidentally married?
Sam: Hey, around here, you never know.
Dean: Come on. Let's go.
Sam: Awesome. Good night, everyone!
Dean: Unless you're of the demonic persuasion in which case, get the hell off our island.
Sam: Yeah, we're way past being in the mood to deal politely with that sort of thing.
Dean: So you're fairly warned.
Sam: Judging from the stack of notes here, it looks like those of you who aren't demons were very busy today, hopefully being good.
Dean: Yeah, probably not. You want to start or should I?
Sam: I'm trying to hold onto at least a little hope. And you can start.

Later on, Nana caused Jeff and Karal to fall into locker 327. Aw, crap.
Sam: Maybe they'll come right back out tomorrow? After having had a completely safe and not harmful trip?
Dean: Stupid portals. Lana was sick and Adam hung out in his room.
AJ and Beauty woke up in a hayloft and he tells her she's his girl. And Peter Petrelli visited Romeo to ask if he was into Brooke. And wow is this broadcast getting girly.
