Fandom Radio, April 25
Hello and good evening, Fandom! This is Tuesday evening, so this is Archie Kennedy at the helm, and let me assure you that I am one hundred percent sober. Well, all right, ninety-five percent. Veronica bought me a drink. Anyhow, this is Royal Navy Radio, and from going over my notes it has been an interesting day in this fair town. So I suppose I should tell you about it.
*long, dazed pause*
I'm . . . sorry, ladies and gentlemen. These rolling hedgehogs are rather mesmerizing. Where was I? Ah, yes.
Schooling
Preparations for the end of the semester are in vogue, apparently: Art classes spent the period reviewing, as did Business classes. In Speech classes, the 201 students gave their final speech presentations, while the 301 students were down to their last chance to convince Professor Cregg to not give them a final. I suppose that counts as preparing for finals, one way or the other, doesn't it?
Also preparing were Classics and Foreign Literature, who worked on their final projects, and Political Campaigning, which did the same. One wonders if Advanced Journalism will cover annoying Professor Skeeter on their final examinations, as that's exactly what they did today. On the not-at-all-unlikely chance that the animals John Crichton the Menagerie Man has been will end up on that final, the students got a bit of a break.
Because John Crichton stayed human all through class today.
Yes, that's right, folks, the Apocalypse is back on.
Oooh, a chartreuse hedgehog!
If any of you are buried in your finals review, ask an Introduction to Archaeology student: they learned about excavation methods today. As for Advanced Criminal Justice? Well, we watched an episode of Crime and Punishment. I still don't understand that show, and I still think that the clown's secret was that he was too happy as a child.
Things were fairly quiet in the library, opened by the lovely Miss Angela Chase today, but she did talk with Parker while at work. In the assistants' lounge, Bel was there for half the day, and Parker came to visit.
Happenings in the Wardroom and the Chain of Command
Did I mention the hedgehogs? The announcements did, today. The trees are apparently still flinging acorns, and there was some other incredibly uninteresting trivia as well. But the hedgehogs are willing to play croquet. You don't often find hedgehogs who do that. Vice Principal Pierce was looking for people willing to help with graduation. Perhaps the hedgehogs can be persuaded? They're very earnest. Eager, even.
No, I'm sorry, I don't have a croquet mallet. Ask Zero.
Professor Cregg held office hours and was visited by Parker and Maia. It's presumed that the rest of the faculty was around somewhere, but evidently not so newsworthy.
Everyone is still in good health, as evidenced by the fact that the school nurse resorted to constructing carousel contraptions in the infirmary, and both Doctors Troy and Lambert resorted to solitary ways of occupying the time on their clinic shifts.
And there was tongue in the cafeteria. Er. Tongues. As in speaking in them, which is what Nadia and Pippi were doing.
In the Crew Berths
Just outside the dorms today, Isabel was having fun with the acorn-flinging trees, and rescued Walter from some of the nutty little projectiles. Anakin also stopped by, and talked with Isabel about his homeworld and his past.
Candy seems like a strange thing to eat while watching something called Kill It Before It Dies, but nevertheless that is what was happening in the third floor common room tonight with Ivanova, Pip, Pippi, Maia, and Alphonse. Something called Rote Muhle with little dots over the 'u', and don't ask me how to pronounce it, was playing in the second floor den of iniquity. It sounds sordid. Fitting, for that floor, where Parker and Isabel schemed about Professor Lyman and Angela succeeded in -- did I read that right? making Jaye's toaster emo. And the ubiquitous Bitterwoman was playing in the fifth floor common room, watched by Nadia and Pippi.
*pause* Well, that beats the hedgehogs -- ouch, not my ankles, please?
Waking up with someone else seems to be a popular pastime today. John and Aeryn did it, as did Ivanova and Maia. Cameron did not, as far as I can tell, wake up with someone else, although he did have a troublesome dream. He was later visited by Menagerie Man John, who interviewed him for journalism, and by Molly, who told him that she -- broke up with Blair? In the sewers? I don't think I can cope. Blair told Ivanova the same thing.
Pippi had a run-in with some of the odder hedgehogs, and Maia indulged herself in a shower after classes today. Sydney was seen heading toward John Connor's room tonight, and caught up in the frenzy of finals fever, perhaps, Rory was studying and visited by Aeryn; talk of prom commenced. There was talk of goldfish and babies in Cally and Anders's room, and dear God, I beg of you, Samuel, do not procreate. Ever. Please.
Pip was packing tonight, And Draco was feeling out of sorts tonight for reasons that I'll get into momentarily.
Beat to Quarters?
Things certainly started off interestingly in the East Attic today, didn't they? Veronica made coffee for herself, Chloe, and Piper this morning, but Piper was in quite the nasty mood and left in a huff. Or a puff, rather. Naturally, this didn't go over terribly well with her roommates, who were joined in the East Attic by Bel, Phoebe, Paige, and Lindsey in order to determine what was going on: namely that Piper had been turned into a Fury and would be going after evildoers, as Furies do. Or at least, as I assume they do. I'm rather unclear on it.
Piper was not so unclear about her intentions to pay Angel a visit, though she appears to have left somewhat frustrated, only to have her visit followed up immediately by one from Veronica and Bel. She caused Draco some difficulties, as I alluded to earlier, before being summoned back to the East Attic and subsequently taken on a trip by Veronica and Paige.
You know, it somehow made more sense before I read it out loud. I swear it did.
On Shore Leave
Not much happened in town tonight, it seems. Over at Empire Records, Marty was at work, and Anakin was buying bleach at All and Sundries. Why, Anakin? Your robes are always impeccable as it is. Ivanova was there too, and bouncing. Clearly Blair is rubbing off on her.
At the Fourth Sin, Jarod was distracted from his poor broken laptop by a phone call from Parker. Well, that was a welcome distraction, I'm sure. And -- *papers rustling* -- what? In distractions of the welcome or perhaps not-so-welcome variety, Nadia and Sydney discovered that they are, in fact, sisters, over dinner at Ching Tai. Er. Congratulations, you two? Cafe Fina could have used some distractions, I'm sure, but was unfortunately empty tonight.
The . . . illustrious Professor Skeeter is taking a trip out of town for a few days, it seems. And I was at Caritas as usual, where I asked Veronica out. I think she tilted her head at me. I can't be sure.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is all the news from our fair town tonight. So this is Archie Kennedy striking colors, wishing you all a fair wind and clear skies, and a very smurfy good night indeed.
*pause*
And no, when I say striking colors, I don't mean hitting these rolling hedgehogs.
*long, dazed pause*

And yet...found herself not needing to!
Perhaps he was distracted by hedgebogs. Chartreuse is, after all, a very distracting color.

Then her eyes nearly popped out of her head when she heard the news that Nadia and Sydney were sisters. She wondered how they figured it out.
And then she laughed at the end of the broadcast, before realizing that Marty was now going to be insufferable next time she saw him.
[ooc: OMG! *dies* So very much love]
no subject
He decided he should be insufferable the next time he saw V and started to work on his navy/sailing metaphors.

no subject
A new toaster friend? Should be bliss
But, Toasty is the jealous type
So, Toasty might hit this new thing with a lead pipe.

But she managed to smile when she heard that Archie asked Veronica out. She'd have to talk to her roommate about that later.
