Fandom Radio :: June 12th.

[stocksgrrl.livejournal.com]

Turtle: Good evening, Fellow Fandomites, and you're listening to WTFH radio this Friday, for all the news that's fit to broadcast...

Valentine: ...and all the news that isn't. Which is usually the broader category.

Turtle: And there hopefully won't be any fire drills tonight! That was lame. And some of you still owe me money.

Valentine: I'm still holding out for a flood. But let's get to the news.



SCHOOL

Turtle: It was announced this morning that Claudia Kishi, Leda, and Peyton Sawyer all have detention with Miss Davis tomorrow. I hope you all learn your lesson. And it turns out that the office didn't really enjoy the fire drill, either. Probably because they knew to blame the moose.

Valentine: Sophie was heavy into her research during her office hours, while Sarah caught up on news in hers. Gibbs got a call from Worf about him missing class, and then talks to Ben about how he's fifteen and should have someone to talk to about things he's been through...

...yeah. Good luck with that, Gibbs. Dr. Brennan worked on her novel, and Bond was shirtless in his office. No overactive cops showing up this time, so this very appreciative squirrel can have him all to herself.

Turtle: On the classes side of things, Mister Max was back for Slacking, informing the class to pair up and plan a goal, then let him know the plan. Fiona was, of course, their intrepid TA.

Valentine: Effy and I will actually be holding a beach party, so keep an eye out for when that is?

Turtle: Really? You need any help with that?

Valentine: We...might. I'll keep you posted, Turtle.

Turtle: Awesome. I love parties! Anyway, TeeVee for Beginners talked news programs. I would say like this one, but this isn't TV. Which is too bad. We'd be cute on TV, Val. Anyway, they watched two very important British news stories of epic coverage: the coronation of Queen Elizabeth and the death of Princess Diana. Then, they had to present something of their own lives as a news story.

Valentine: How to Dress Like a Pop Star talked hats, which apparently leads to steam punk plus religion for a theme. Harper was intrepid in her TA-ness, if tired.

Turtle: Miss Upland was upset with us in Public Speaking, so no cookies this week. So we had to work on rough drafts today, which, for the record, Joan and I were very dilligent about, before telling Miss Upland what we were going to give our speech about.

Valentine: Rangering! was working on tracking and plant finding today, going into the woods in pairs. They also had the usual sparring and target practice activities. Edward was the intrepid TA, and, after class, Arthur asked about Minsc's future teaching plans, and then they talked about Minsc's hamster.

Turtle: So glad that's an actual hamster.


DORMS

Valentine: John Sheppard got ready to leave early this morning, and then Turtle went over a list of the people she scammed last ni--

Turtle: It wasn't a scam!

Valentine: I'm just reading what the squirrel wrote.

Turtle: Well, the squirrel is a big fat liar. I was just keeping track of who got good deal on umbrellas last night, when Leto came in and was annoying.

Valentine: Tahiri was a little mopey, but Blysse came in to talk with her about it and make a date for tomorrow.

Turtle: And then Merlin was in his room, working on getting laid with coo--

God, why do I read some these things directly? Ugh.

Valentine: Ben snipped off his braid today...

Turtle: Big deal! At least he got to do it himself and didn't have someone snip it off in the middle of the night!

Valentine: Er, well, Turtle, I think it might actually have some significance.

Turtle: So did mine!

Valentine: Chuck is cacooned in his bed with the occasional sustenance of scotch, and, in a few weeks, he's sure to emerge as a beautiful butterfly. Sam Winchester shows up to bug him, but Chuck doesn't want any of that. Not now, anyway. Instead, they talk about how Sam's advice for making things up with Blair didn't work because he was a douche. Who? Chuck? You're right, Turtle, these squirrels are full of it.

Turtle: I don't know if you can say that on radio, Val...'douche.'

...Oh, crap, now I said it. Great. Anyway, Serena's having fun on the first floor, and, in the afternoon, Karla went to the salle for a lesson with Leto. They go over what they learned last time.

Valentine: ...no bitchface?

Turtle: I don't bitchface, Val, shut up!

Valentine: And, this evening, Joan got a fire going on the deck, and this is why we have late night fire drills. Either way, Hannibal caught up with her over both the drill and the week of awry hormones, and Ellie was thinking it was nice to have one of these again since there's been a severe lack of campfires and s'mores since we got out of the cabins. Joan also can't help but note that Fiona is looking pretty happy. A new hat'll do that for you.


TOWN


Valentine: Morgana and her lovely breasts...

Turtle:...don't do that.

Valentine: Do what?

Turtle: You know what, Val. You can't get away with that now that I'm actually here.

Valentine: Get away with mentioning Morgana's lovely breasts?

Turtle: Yes. That.

Valentine: But if the squirrels think they're lovely, shouldn't we communicate the compliment?

Turtle: No, the squirrels are perverts. Give me that. Morgana set up for the CPR session at the Support Services meeting in the park today. There was a sign for cookies at the price of a cell phone number as people started to gather. Arthur took up on that before retreating to the back, Leto was there, and so was Gabrielle, who Francine talks to about the extra cookies under the table and all about cell phones.

Valentine: Claire appeared well rested, and I chatted with Jack about his getting to know early twenty first century technology. My esteemed cohost was there, as was Priestly.

Turtle: And so were you, Val, and Shilo, and Angela.

Valentine: Ellie and Priestly caught up, particularly with how she's making progress in not thinking everyone here is on drugs. She says she'd tell her brother about these sorts of things but doesn't want him thinking she's on drugs. Vicious cycle. Maron, Dinah, Harper, and Karla also all joined those trading info for cookies.

Turtle: Rachel was already in the park and decided to check things out, while Penelope joined the group, as well. Agnes did write down a cell phone number, just her room number, and got cookies anyway. Merlin was hanging around, too.

Valentine: Then Dr. Jones, with the help of Morgana and he--

Turtle: Doooon't!

Valentine: ...her volunteering self, was what I was going to say. With the help of Morgana and her volunteering self, Dr. Jones gave a lesson on cardiopulmonary resuscitation, or CPR. Gabrielle and Karla discussed how the demonstration was very informative and education and not dirty at all. Dinah wants to know if you can break someone's ribs by doing CPR too hard. Remind me not to need CPR around Dinah. And then people paired up to practice. Claire and Jack got to know each other better...

Turtle: Wink wink?

Valentine: Well, it is CPR. Priestly told Francine that he's used to doing this with dummies, which is a terrible thing to say, Priestly.

Turtle: Shilo and Agnes agreed that this was pretty awkward, but Angela and Ellie didn't seem to have a problem.

Turtle: Morgana and Francine were around if anyone needed them.

Valentine: Arthur comments on how much attention....Morgana is getting, and then Karla brings all the potions she made to Francine and Morgana and explained all the things they could do.

Turtle: And, today, the teachers had their staff meeting at the spa. Luuuuuucky. Principal Winchester started with a little bit of business before the faculty could just go and relax.

Valentine: Daisy and Loki were all flirty in the hot tub; last week, that probably would have went very X-rated. Mitchell hung out in the pool, while Minsc and Deadpool discussed how Minsc's hamster is so youthful and spry because of a healthy diet of cucumbers and being from space. I am so glad that I found out that he actually does have a hamster.

Turtle: Ew. Detective Constable Day and Mister Bond both enjoyed massages, and Veronica and Mister Deadpool talk about how he's her favorite vice principal, but she's only his third favorite teacher. She got beat out by Hamster Dude and Fashion Midget.

Valentine: Harsh. Dr. Brennan and Mr. Gibbs talked toenails and haircuts, while Sarah and Veronica focused on business with talk of CIA and future workshop ideas. Skywalker explained to Sarah that he's too busy fretting about his wife about to pop out a baby to relax, despite the principal's attempt to convince him to do just that.

Turtle: Mister Minsc chatted up Miss Upland as she was very picky about her nailpolish, and giggly because apparently she's ticklish. Principal Winchester enjoys a pedicure and Mister Deadpool does the cucumber over the eyes thing. With his mask still wrong. I think he's doing it wrong. Mister Gibbs? Just wants a haircut, but Miss Mode and Miss Garrett were all about getting the most out of the spa visit. Miss Atreides and Miss Deveraeux enjoyed the decadence, and I'm skipping over Mister Rimmer because it just makes me uncomfortable after last week. Principal and Vice Principal were around if anyone needed them, but they were all too busy getting their hair done and their nails did.

Valentine: Dani took a horse out to ride around the Gig, and the cable's out at the hotel. We had cable?

Turtle: And Harper worked on her homework at Things Reborn and absolutely did not take any naps or wind up sleeping. Really. And Dinah was walking around the graveyard, talking on her cell phone. Like you do.

Valentine: Meanwhile, at the magic store, Agnes found herself in the company of a cat statue come to life, not entirely intentionally. And Arya was tense at the medicine shop, which probably didn't help when Jack came by and she thought he was someone she knew. Oh, crazy double action.

Turtle: Not dirty.

Valentine: Thank you, Turtle. At the Trooper Station, Ray and Daisy talk about potential things that might invade, which makes sense. We'd want them to be prepared for whatever it throws at us.

Valentine: Dinah met with Tony at Chilly Boulder, where they talked about Merlin's Duty to Arthur, with a Capital D. And Jon and Claire met at El Burrito Loco for a date where they talked about getting tattoos and piercings, which is more of a third date sort of thing, really, so look at you, Jon, just dashing right into things. They also talk about cheerleading.

Turtle: Rah-rah-rah. Eve had a headache at the York Gallery, while Jenny was cranky at Pixie Dust. Karla and Emma went on bit of a shopping spree while they were there. Hope mostly ignored Apu at Turtle & Canary, which is usually a good idea, and Hurley is resting his eyes, really, at the flowers shop. And Jen was evil and armed with cookies at Pizza Planet. I...have trouble seeing how those two things are directly related.

Valentine: Ender took out his raft tonight; likely to stay there all night, too. And Mina ignored all the odd looks she was getting during her clinic shift.

Turtle: Mister Tino was annoying Mister Jolee over at Caritas, which is definitely nothing new. And Detective Constable Day stopped in, too, because she's a lush, and that's nothing new, either. Mister Reilly got a club soda before talking with Detective Constable Day, and Mary gets a Shirley Temple. The drink, the the precocious little darling.




Valentine: And there you have it, today's news. I think we're feeling a little residual tiredness from the fire drill last night, so we don't have a clever and witty closing. Instead, we shall just bid you good night...

Turtle: ...and have a prosperous tomorrow!
