Fandom Radio, Tuesday, November 4th
Jenny: Congratulations, Americans! I've been really worried about what the *censor beep* you were thinking since I came back from the dead, but today you didn't *censor beep* it up. I am so *censor beep*ing relieved, you do not even know.
Reno: And I ain't got no clue what's been goin' on the past few months, but I'm thinkin' somethin' big happened today, so I'm gonna give you a thumbs-up over the radio, yo. Pretend you can see my thumbs. They're up. An' I've already been drinkin'. So it seems like we're set to read news that's a little more local than the big stuff that cut out all the good TV shows I was watchin' today.
*chitter*
Jenny: According to the squirrels, my views do not necessarily represent those of the administration, but I would like to remind you the administration is a drunken pirate. But Reno is right, we report the local news, and there was no election on the island today. Alas.
Reno: So, tonight the news will be brought to you by a British girl, a Midgar boy, a bunch'a drunken squirrels, and... A really happy lookin' blue donkey that's tryin' to eat my shoes. We got notes. The squirrels are holdin' 'em high enough the donkey can't chew on 'em, too.
Jenny: We do indeed have notes. How about you start in on them while I get the donkey a victory drink so he'll stop chewing your feet?
Reno: Sounds like a plan for change to me, zoto.
School: Raisin' Us Right
Reno: We're gonna start this stack of notes with a report on Ethics class, where they did that talk about wrath, yo. A fun topic, ain't it? Students were quiet, right up until they all explained what it'd take to knock 'em over the edge. Sometimes, it takes a lotta people to show where the line's been drawn, huh? After the class, Anakin talked to Toby about what class was handin' out fake babies, and wondered about Toby's fake kid's name. Palmolive? The heck. And then he talked to Ender about the Sith and Ben stopped in to say he wasn't gonna be swingin' by anymore. In Art Class, people drew... people. Again, guys, I draw stick men. So you artsy fartsy types are worlds ahead on me. After the lecture, they paired up and drew one another. Savannah did the TA thing, and Lily lead the pack.
Jenny: I drew stick people in art class, in fact. Hunting 101 tracked a fairy tale person's attacker. First they made plans and formed a group, and then there was their teacher, so I hope he wasn't the attacker. Um. Superhuman Physics talked about multiplying, good luck getting that to make physics sense. During the lecture, apparently a lot of significant looks were exchanged, then there was discussion, and the students could talk to their teacher if they felt brave. Home Ec watched a movie, and then could ask their teacher what the point of the movie was, I suppose.
Reno: In my experience, movies are a pleasant distraction from the harsh realities of life. Or... class. Or the education system. Or something. I dunno. In the library, AminiminyThatGirlWithTheName was playin' with the asses and ephelumps, tryin' to make 'em conga. It wasn't workin. Maybe Dr. Jones' suggestion of using pork did some good, there. And in Music Speaks club, Penelope and Chad talked about the little... animal things. Which are apparently patriotic or somethin'? I know about three patriotic songs, and I think one is actually about some kinda hot dog. "Everyone would be in love with meeeee."
Jenny: That's...not a patriotic song. It's an ad jingle. But, yes, one of the major parties here is represented by the elephant, the other by the donkey, because all the good animals were taken or something. In office hours, the librarian argued with a tiny donkey and elephant and is probably doubting his sanity, and Miss Bennet shared tea with them in a stunning display of interparty cooperation.
Reno: On a less cooperative note, the main office today had a "NO POLITICS" sign up. Which didn't stop people from wearin' red and blue hats. I'm sensin' a color scheme for the day, yo.
Dorms: Sleep We Can Believe In
Jenny: A donkey and elephant kept Buffy out of her room, while my cohost sicced his weasel thing on a pair in his room, which is both a weirdly apt metaphor for the political process and mean. Did the elephant lose?
Reno: The donkey kicked the elephant in the face, sure. But Mako won. He's a scrappy little sonofaweasel. And he honks. Ask Romeo, he was totally there to see. Somewhere else in the dorms, Angela had a parade of blue and red weird animal things. Which was apparently adorable, according to the squirrels. Meg, meanwhile, was checkin' up on election stats and takin' the side of the donkeys. I dunno if that's a political statement, or if it was because donkeys don't crap as much as elephants on the dorm room floors. Chad asked her about the elephants outside her door, which were apparently sad about the election results tonight, yo. Sam was in his room readin' tonight, and Dean stopped in to let him know that he was headin' off with Ben to his mom's funer-- Aw, jeez, man. I'm sorry. That's even more harsh than the conversation Worf and Cal musta had in the gym about Cal's breakup and... feelings. An' shit.
Town: Where People Who Could Actually Vote Live
Jenny: Robin watched CNN with her dogs this evening, and at Caritas Marshall opened, then talked with John before John started doing shots of hard liquor with Ben. I've tried that, it's really not an effective way of handling grief. But make your own mistakes, kid. Ben, before he got completely smashed, asked about the tiny animals. Worf ordered prune juice, and he and Cal sat around drinking prune juice and water, and I really think they don't understand the whole 'bar' concept. At the park, Momoko was unable to capture a donkey but did bag an elephant, and Daisy tried to convince Momoko to let the elephant go. Francine was following a donkey and talked to Momoko about getting kicked. Those little hooves could hurt.
Reno: I'm predictin' little hoof-shaped bruises in the morning, yo. Also out there in town, Tony and Sarah had what the squirrels refer to as a "daaaaaaaaaaaate," twelve As and everything. The other Tony opened up the Boards, where Geoffrey was apparently a beaver? See, that's what you get for bein' a Canadian in Fandom on election day. He is a Canadian, right? I know O Canada. Or the "OOOOO CAAAANAAADAAAA" part of it. Also, I'm drunk, zoto. Anyhow, the rehearsal was quiet, which works fine for me, yo. At Stark Enterprises, Pepper- what kinda name is Pepper?- was up on the counters, tryin' to avoid the elephants and donkeys. Jack worked on his resume at the Photo Hut, which is in kinda poor taste to do at work, if you ask me. Aravis tried to shoo the critters away from the Gig. Coyote, meanwhile, was smokin' some herbs at Coyote Medicine... Man. I gotta swing by there sometime and see what he's got in stock.
Jenny: Same here. At the clinic, Harley wore her Halloween costume just for *censor beep*s and giggles. Got to get your money out of it somehow. Teyla quieted down the tiny animals at the music shop, and at the gallery poor Charlotte had to deal with both a new exhibit and tiny political animals. Adam opened the Android's Dungeon--not an actual dungeon, I hope--and Sarah was confused by the animals. At the flower shop, Ino brought Liir, who is a cat, to work, and told him to play nice with the animals. Except the elephants. Eat those *censor beep*ers. Hurley was surprised by the elephants--but not the donkeys?--and Cal ditched his fake baby with Ino. I don't have to worry about that. I killed mine.
Reno: .... I'd call you a baby killer or whatever, but I'm probably not one to talk. I just gotta ask how? 'Cause I'm thinkin' those freakish rubber babies or whatever those are that the teachers try to pawn off in every class they possibly can find an excuse to, and we all need more creative ways to get rid of those dumb things, zoto.
Jenny: I'd say that thing was clearly malfunctioning but the principal didn't buy that. So.
*crackling sounds, as of sparks*
Reno: .... Why didn't I think of that? Huh. Movin' on. At Book Haven, Hinata was busy shooin' the critters away from the books, kinda like the squirrels are doin' here with our little blue donkey so's he don't eat the notes. Back at Robin's place, she an' Fraser talked about the election results, and then Robin told him she's goin'. I ain't sure where she's goin', but it involves not bein' here, I guess. And apparently a lotta kissing. In the park, Amber met with Murdock. To do... Amber and Murdock things. At T&C, the unicorn annoyed the crap outta Apu by askin' questions, yo. The weird animals tried to hit on Temari at Wellspring, sometime before Ender asked if she fed them- I don't think it's her job to feed the invasion creatures. She could be at that a while, right? I mean... There's a lot of 'em. And then Jamie stopped by to be all weird, by talkin' in a French accent, yo.
*Donkey sounds*
Reno: ... And it'd seem like the either the donkey or the rum might have just got the better of my cohost, zoto. So I'm gonna maybe ask the squirrels if we can call it a night right now so I can make sure she's still breathin'?
*Squirrel chittering*
Reno: For those who don't speak rodent, the squirrels say, "Yes we can." Good night, Fandom. And congrats.
Reno: And I ain't got no clue what's been goin' on the past few months, but I'm thinkin' somethin' big happened today, so I'm gonna give you a thumbs-up over the radio, yo.
