Fandom Radio, Monday, March 16

[likethegun]

Sam: Good evening, Fandom. I hope everyone's enjoying being back to the right size and age.

Dean: And didn't embarrass themselves too badly.

Sam: I don't remember seeing a lot of embarrassing things going on, so I think that's a good sign.

Dean: You were too busy competing with Peter to see who had the biggest puppy eyes.

Sam: Hey, when you have a skill like that, you've got to use it every chance you can get. It's practice.

Dean: Uh-huh. I think if I had to judge, Peter out-puppied you.

Sam: Honestly? I think he did too. Clearly, I need more practice.


The School

Sam: Vice Principal Deadpool was in charge of Business 101 today, and had the students watch and discuss a recent argument between two television personalities about the economy. So You Want to Make a TV Show covered teleprompters and screen testing by having everyone write up an intro to a fake show and present it in front of the camera.

Tony Stark was the substitute teacher for Sex Ed today, and talked about kinks and fetishes and other things that I imagine no one actually wanted to talk about because it was far too embarrassing.

Dean: That's because you're a prude.

Sam: That's because I'm a sensible person who thinks those kinds of things should only be discussed with the person you're sleeping with. No one else needs to know, or think about it.

Dean: Except, dude, that everybody does.

Sam: Not all the time, I swear. I know I can't be alone here. Anyway, as soon as the lecture was done, Mr. Stark left, and Dinah told Eric that he owes her for convincing her to sing at Caritas while she was little. Mad Kings and Queens talked about...uh, an Egyptian ruler whose name has way too many accents for me to even try to pronounce it, and whether or not he was really crazy, while Ben and Tahiri did a flirty eye thing at each other.

Cal was around for his library shift, and got a visit from Claire. He didn't want to talk about the weekend, so they talked about Claire getting a college rejection letter instead. Awww. sorry Claire.

The Blank Page Art Club planned for their Art Crawl, and let their creative mojo flow on their own projects. Angela and Peyton talked about their respective mornings, and I'm just going to hope that not much detail went into the conversation. For no reason in particular, really.

The Young Entrepreneurs worked on a list of the things they want to put in their Fandom survival kits, to make sure nothing gets left out, and then they did their networking thing. Turtle thanked Ned for bringing pie again, even if it was a weird crustless one, and Alice and Leto talked about what their weekends were like compared to their actual childhoods.

Tyler worked on lesson plans in his office hours, Constable Fraser got to his office early in case those who were kids were still little, and Minsc turned Reno into a chocobo for the assignment for his class. That doesn't sound like something pleasant to be turned into, but I'm not sure.

Dean: Sounds like some new dessert.

Sam: For Reno's sake, I really hope it's not.


The Dorm

Dean: Over in the dorms - or at least the stables - Merlin and Arthur woke up and were no longer kids. The strange places kids go to sleep, huh? Leto woke up not-small as well, and Arthur came back to the room all cranky about the weekend.

Gavin woke up on his floor and immediately went for the showers. Romeo and Dojima woke up, and they decided they missed each other and should fix things. Aw. Peyton was sleeping with the door open, music on, and with a baseball bat. Um, yeah. Sorry about that, babe. I'd totally protect you from the boogeyman.

Sam: No matter what age you turn into.

Dean: Yeah, pretty much. Angela woke up in Chuck's room and found Sammy spooning Chuck, and took pictures. Okay, seriously? Dude, can't I leave you alone for a minute?

Sam: Maybe I should read the rest of the notes. I think the squirrels are on drugs or something.

Dean: If someone's on drugs, it's not the squirrels.

Sam: Please don't get mad? It wasn't a big deal.

Dean: I'm not mad. Just need to drill it into you even more that you don't go sleeping with strange people when you're little. And you don't go sleeping with a douchebag anytime. Alice checked with Francine to make sure that both the weekend and the harpies really happened -- they totally did sweetheart, and you were awesome with that sword -- and told her about how she got laid on Friday. Okay, wow, that was not something I wanted to learn about reading squirrel notes. And yet? Still not the most shocking thing I've found out about a sibling this broadcast.

Sam: I think that's a little more shocking than me accidentally crashing somewhere I shouldn't have.

Dean: You'd think wrong. Lois also woke up in desperate need of a shower -- and dude, I hope you took one after the whole spooning thing.

Sam: I'm going to start ignoring you soon, I swear.

Dean: Hey, I didn't wake up spooning a douchebag. Lee needed to clean his room after it was trashed by a pirate princess and Claire told Penelope about how she didn't get into college. Aw.

John woke up in need of a shower as well, but there wasn't any hot water left due to all those other people needing one. Like Amber; she woke up a mess, as was her room.

Angela came back to her room and told Hannibal about how cute and snuggly Chuck and Sammy were. I'm going to throw up.

Sam: Can I die now? I think I'd kind of like that.

Dean: I'd just have to find a way to bring you back, so you might as well skip it and save us both the trouble. Blysse woke from a nightmare and took off from her room, and Reno flirted with Rikku through her door.

Tahiri helped Jen work on her ship on the beach and they had a long talk about how going back in time to save people is bad. Probably a pretty good thing I don't have the ability to time travel then because I don't think I'd be able to help myself.

Back to the showering brigade, Priestly tried to clean up, in the second floor boys bathroom, the mess his child-self made of his hair.

And in the third floor common room this morning Joan and a bunch of others woke up all curled up together, the result of the slumber party from the night before. Mac woke up with a groan and found out from Joan how much ice cream they ate. Alex groaned and didn't want to get up, Summer was still tired and Naomi was all sprawled out. Peter facepalmed over waking up cuddling with Joan. Don't worry Peter, certain other people you usually cuddle with woke up in even more embarrassing circumstances.

Sam: Circumstances I'm never going to live down, from the sound of it.

Dean: At least until the next embarrassing thing you do. Francine celebrated being big again with lots and lots of breakfast in the fifth floor common room. Ino thought Francine was probably adorable as a child and complimented her on her cooking. Jamie offered to cut his hand off to pay for breakfast, but Francine told him that wasn't necessary. Damn right. Severed limbs? Always a bigger mess than you'd think.

Katina declared she didn't want to talk about it, which Ino took as a prompt to pester her to talk about it. Jamie wanted to talk about 'it' lots and lots, and thought Katina needed coffee, and Francine gave Katina a good, syrupy kiss. Yay, girl kissy.

Hurley tried to say hi, but Katina was, let's say, less than welcoming. And Ino wondered if Jeff was dying.

Sam: I think that's just what Jeff is. Like, all the time. Jeff made the mistake of trying to talk to Katina, and nearly got his head taken off for his trouble. Talking to Francine was probably no less awkward, since all he apparently did was talk about breasts, but Jeff also talked to Jamie, and managed to tell him about turning into a rock. Clearly, the issue is just with girls here.

Ino assured Hurley that the weekend wasn't a dream while debating whether or not the things that happen in Fandom would make a good book, and Francine was just horrified that Hurley actually ate vegetables over the weekend, since he didn't have a sweet tooth yet.

Arthur was in a cranky mood in the salle today. In other news, grass is green and water is wet. He and Blysse discussed how they managed to survive the weekend, and after seeing her skills with a bow, he invited her to go hunting with him. Alice was in the salle as well, and thanked Blysse for being a mediator for her.

Reno asked Arthur if he suffered from the weekend at all, and they talked about how annoyed they are by the whims of the island. Reno and Alice talked about everything that's happened since the harpies, and whether or not it can all be chalked up to a really weird dream. It does feel like that sometimes, doesn't it? Some things are a lot easier to think about that way.

Dean: Or nightmares. Like certain waking up situations...

Sam: Wow, you went like, two whole minutes without saying anything about it. I'm impressed. Arthur helped Dinah work on her sword skills, since she won't always be able to rely on throwing things in a fight like she did with the harpies, and Dinah checked on Blysse to make sure she made it through the weekend with her sanity intact. Dinah also thanked Reno for helping to look out for her when the harpies attacked, and was disappointed when she found out that Ronan's weekend wasn't that great.

Arthur talked to Alice about taking up the light sword for practice, and Dinah and Alice both agreed that they were far less aggressive as children. In the evening, Chuck was on the roof, thinking about things that I'm sure had nothing to do with this morning and Dinah spotted him and apologized for pestering him so much over the weekend.


The Town

Sam: Tony Stark and Tyler hung out at Tyler's place and talked about Tony's experience teaching sex ed. Worf had his replicator with him at Wellspring Arms, and was attempting to replicate a cake. If that doesn't sound like a Dean Winchester-approved project, I don't know what is.

Dean: Sounds like the kind of thing Bridge used to come up with.

Sam: Yeah, it does. It's something very useful, at least. Ender was hard at work at Stark Industries, and Ben stopped by to tell him all about trying to fix his droid as a three year old. Lacey opened Luke's Diner, and decided that caffeine and sugar should now only be available to people who aren't little kids. I think someone witnessed one too many sugar highs this weekend.

Joan opened Covent Garden Flowers, despite the fact that she didn't feel well, and Liz was very glad to be back to normal when she got to the Arms Hotel for her shift. Daisy had a good time transcribing the radio reports from this weekend, and she and Dale talked about what it would be like if what happened to us happened to the police force. Oh, really, haven't they been here long enough to know that you don't think about things like that unless you want them to happen?

Chad was happy that there wasn't a mess to clean up at Groovy Tunes, and Alex was glad to be back to normal at the Magic Box, as was Harper, who stopped by to visit Alex and bring her some coffee. Bender threw out the remains of the candy he'd collected at the Gig, Sokka put the candy on sale at Turtle & Canary, and Tony found a rat at Coyote Medicine, but refused to feed it. I think, in general, that's what you're supposed to do.

Dean: Ya never know. I mean look at what the squirrels are like 'round here.

Sam: Busybodies who love getting people into trouble? I don't think I'd feed them either.

Dean: Now Sammy, it's not their fault that you made a bad choice.

Sam: No, it's just their fault that you know about it and have something to use to make fun of me for days now.

Dean: Dude, apparently there are photos -- this wasn't going to stay swept under the rug.

Sam: I don't want to think about the photos. In fact, I think I'm perfectly happy not thinking about this morning at all anymore. Are there any more notes?

Dean: If there are, you've successfully hidden them.

Sam: Then we should probably say good night before I get embarrassed further.

Dean: Good night.
