Fandom Radio, Monday, January 11th
-- I have tried to explain to her that chasing after the squirrels with notebooks will only lead to frustration, but it is her propensity to hunt small furry things. Also things with many legs and anything with feathers. I hope she hasn't caused you any undue harm.
*chittering*
What's this?
*shuffling of papers*
I see. And this is how your . . . 'radio' receives its information. Fascinating.
*chittering, clanking, a flutter of feathers*
What are you -- no, I really don't think -- *sighs* Very well. I suppose this will simply add to my understanding of the residents of the island. *clears throat* Good evening. I am Castiel. The squirrels wish me to read these notes.
School:
Classes today included Build Your Own Philosophy, which admittedly I believed that each of you did over the course of your lives, anyway. You're certainly not very prone to listening to us on the subject. Today's topic was Plato's Theory of Forms, with a physical demonstration using red bouncy balls. I don't understand what spheres of rubber have to do with ancient Grecian philosophy. The students then discussed perfect forms in pairs, a task taken up by Raven and Dinah, Jak and Hayley, Marco and the boy who isn't Dean, Ino and Liir, and Mulan and Joan, despite the fact that none of them, as humans, has ever actually experienced perfection.
*chittering*
Yes, I do, in fact, know that. Joan provided something called "TA" and had a discussion with Raven regarding mistaken messages from the weekend. They were both lucky, in that neither of them called me. Neither did Liir, who was also there to "TA", or Tyler, who discussed flying cars with Ino. Trust me, you don't actually want your cars to fly.
Horror 101 received a lecture on demons and monsters, which hopefully covered various methods of dispatching them. Kate apparently made a helpful observation regarding a fellow student's skin color, which I hope had little to no bearing on the actual topic of discussion. Humans do have the tendency to digress. They then viewedmeta for Frankenstein and threw things at each other.
*chittering*
I'm sorry, that's Tony throwing things at Jason, in what I can only assume was a helpful manner. The class discussed what makes a monster, which is an excellent topic for discussion that I believe it may be helpful for the church to tackle as well. Hopefully I will see you all there on Thursday. Alex, whom I'm told is female, and Chloe were present for "TA" duties, and the instructor, Mitchell was present as well.
Japanese Etiquette and Tradition received a lecture on Japanese honorifics, as is befitting a class of that title. Their assignment was to assign the honorifics to people in their lives. I would be properly referred to as the Angel Castiel, only in Japanese. In this class, Ino served as "TA", and Algren-sensei was introduced to Jill, who apparently did not get her introduction last week.
Outdoor Fitness and Strategy, which sounds like an excellent course that I hope all of you are enrolled in, went to the preserve to run an obstacle course. They warmed and partnered up -- Jonas with Kurt, Rose with Beka, and Jon with Zayne -- and ran the course. Codex -- which I must assume is a name and not a reference to ancient books -- attempted to convince Mr. Bond to let her skip the activity and Jon made his excuses to the same regarding his previous absence due to an alien plague. On an unrelated note, Rose served "TA" duties.
World Mythology covered Mesopotamia, today, and paired up -- Karla with Ben, Blysse with Jacob, and Menolly with Diana -- to come up with their own creation myths. I hope that each began with "In the beginning, there was the Word", but experience has taught me to doubt that this is true. Menolly and Jaina both performed "TA" duties, and Ghanima was present to receive Diana's excuses regarding her absence last week due to cheeseballs and leprechauns.
. . .
Truly, I marvel at human creativity.
Summer ran the day's Study Hall, where Clark was present. One assumes he was there to study. Gabrielle opened the library, where she and Henry discussed shipping supplies and not letting books out of one's sight -- which seems to me to be a waste of energy, as books are seldom sentient -- and Cindy arrived to discuss misplaced messages and baby pictures. Are these common topics for discussion?
*chittering*
Of course not. I don't have any baby pictures.
There. I've read your news. Now, if you'll excuse me, I was in the middle of a very important discussion on --
*angry chittering, fluttering of paper*
. . . That is rather a lot of notes.
*chittering, clanking*
Yes, you do have a great deal of rum. What does that have to do with -- ah. I see. You make an interesting argument.
Dorms:
*Burble, chink-chink, glug*
This morning in the Salle, Arthur performed weapons maintenance and was "cranky". I find that difficult to believe. He regularly attends services, and has always seemed to be very even tempered. Dinah wished to know if she had left Merlin any odd messages, and questioned her classmate's ability to control their impulses. The answer, Dinah, is no. They don't have that ability. None of you do. You're human.
*Burble, chink-chink, glug*
This is very good rum.
Merlin and Arthur discussed the cheering capabilities of violent activity -- perhaps another sermon topic to consider -- and Arthur claimed not to listen to radio. I would commend Arthur on his display of wisdom, but I'm surrounded by squirrels. Fiona discussed Thailand with Dinah -- it is a very interesting country, rather more rife with dens of iniquity than this one -- and nodded at Arthur. *Burble, chink-chink, glug* Dinah professed her competence to a disbelieving Arthur, and they compared --
*chittering*
What? I'm reading the notes. *burble, chink-chink, glug* Gunn showed off his axe to Arthur -- I'm really quite certain that there are those among humanity who would take statements like this in entirely the wrong way -- and offered it to Merlin, who worried about the safety of his foot. *Burble, chink-chink, glug* Merlin. You're supposed to hold it in your hands. Where's that -- ah. *Burble, chink-chink, glug* Dinah thinks his axe is cool, which it quite likely is, as metal tends to be a very efficient conductor of heat energy. Roy asked where he could shoot his bow. I assume he means in the manner of archery and not anything . . . else, especially since he and Arthur then agreed that they dislike guns. Me neither. They're excessively noisy and there is one in existence that could quite likely kill my kind.
I possibly shouldn't have mentioned that.
*Chink-chink* Oh . . . Hell . . . *crash* Bottle it is, then. *Glug, glug* Where was I? Ah, yes. Weapons.
Roy thinks that Fandom is weird. I suspect that Fandom may well think the same about Roy. Merlin said you get used to it, which I suppose he must know, though I have now been here for nearly six months and I find it still manages to surprise you. Of course, I've been observing humans for over two thousand years, and they still don't make any sense, either, so that's possibly . . . *glug, glug, glug* I believe I'm beginning to understand rum, though. Roy and Dinah flailed at each other. I'm assuming using real flails, in which case, I would like to say that I'm not cleaning up after them. It was something regarding phone messages, and I don't do phones. Just ask that Millie person.
In the common room of the fifth floor of the dorms, Bod had a book. Also food. And if you think that that is news, then you should see what Mildred the cleaning woman brings over on Tuesdays at the church. Jennifer and Bod discussed the consumability of baking soda, names, and the horror, the horror. Jen and Jack Priest, who isn't, by the way, discussed classes and formed a mutual appreciation society, which seems to be a common human practice, when you're not hitting each other with flails. Bod and Jack also talked class and appreciation, though theirs was directed more towards the open-mindedness of the island. I find it more bloody-minded, myself, but then, I find that to be true about much of what I've encountered in the earthly realms. *Glug, glug* Bod and Roy talked about the silliness of games and children, and of making up for lost time. It's good to see someone is taking silliness seriously. Jack and Roy had not talked in a day. That's nothing. I've gone without talking for years. Not that you all would be able to withstand my real voice, anyway. Your heads would explode. And then the squirrels would be angry. *Glug* Jen and Roy talked about the sugar content of cereal. Is this a common topic of conversation? Should I be reading up? Rose demanded cupcakes, which sounds about right. Not about Rose -- I've never met Rose -- but about humanity. Always demanding things. Really. You should hear some prayers. As though life, free will, and creativity weren't enough. *Glug, glug, glug* I think I need more rum. Jack was willing to make cupcakes, once he got some playful teasing out of the way, as long as Rose promised not to eat them. I definitely need more rum.
*crack, clink, glug, glug*
Thank you.
Roy claimed not to be a baker. Or butcher or a maker of candle-sticks, I'm certain. He then flirted with Rose based on their compatibility of their names. I wasn't aware that names could be compatible. Jen would only be willing to make cupcakes if there was something in it for her, which, again, is very typical. Bruce stated that people found strange ways to have fun, here, which considering that they apparently spend their time hitting each other with flails and demanding cupcakes, sounds rather fair. Roy pointed out that the island is full of teenagers. I am pointing out that I am not now, nor have I ever been a teenager. So he's wrong. *glug, glug, glug* Rose told Bruce that he gives awesome advice, and he said he tried to be helpful. I'm not certain about the emphasis of some of these notes, but in case they mean anything, "awesome" is very emphasized. I can only imagine that Bruce gives very good advice indeed. Bod explained his attempt to procure food without putting down his book, which is, I suppose, what the Lord gave you two arms for. Also so that one can hold radio notes and a rum bottle at the same time. *glug* Jack and Bruce discussed the newsworthiness of the news. If the news is anything like this news, then it's news-worthy indeedy. News. That's a very strange word, when you think about it. Neeeeeeeews. How do you people come up with this stuff?
*chittering*
Very well, then. Mat was deterred from feeding himself by the greenness of Jen. Perhaps he prefers blue. He then explored meat-cake with Bod and told Jack he had to meet Totally Hot Leia. Now, I know I'm not the best person to judge in regards to naming conventions, given that it is not, nor has it ever been, my duty to name. But that seems like it would be a rather unfortunate one to have. You have my condolences, Totally Hot Leia. Stop by the church sometime. Mat also attempted to get Rose to make him dinner, which seems somewhat foolish given how she'd apparently spent her afternoon begging for cupcakes. He was unsuccessful at getting Bruce to make him a sandwich, and one can only assume, eventually starved to death. Though not before discovering that he dated Jaina's mother. Speaking of Jaina, she came in and wondered about daring someone to eat baking soda, which Bod disapproved of. Though perhaps eating baking soda may have saved Mat from his tragic fate. Of starving, not of dating Jaina's mother. Rose told Jaina that Jack was making cupcakes, which Jaina could eat thanks to her "mad Jedi skillz". I'm not certain that that is spelled correctly.
*chittering*
You're absolutely right. *Glug, glug, glug* Bruce explained the schadenfreude of watching others starve to Jaina. Do you suppose that that's what God gets out of the whole thing, too? Schadenfreude. That's a very good word. The Germans should be proud. Jaina aided in the cupcake making, perhaps to save her fellow students from starvation. Not Mat though. He dated her mother. Jaina and Roy discussed the bonding power of watching a man take baking soda from a refrigerator. I'm really quite certain I don't understand that. I may need more rum. Squirrels! More rum! *chittering* Then bring me water, and I'll make it rum. *chittering* Then I will make it rain rum from the very skies!
*a series of crashes, pops, crackles, and screeches of feedback*
. . . It didn't rain, did it.
*sighs*
Chloe was upset in her room, where at least she had her roommate Helen around to comfort her. That is one thing that you people excel at, comforting each other. As I understand it, it involves a lot of hugs. Sometimes in the nude.
There's no information as to what sort of comfort Helen may have offered Chloe.
Tara and Kennedy on the other hand . . . had to deal with Kennedy spontaneously transforming into a hedgehog. Take comfort, Tara. She at least has a large number of very pointy natural defenses. Francine came to comfort Katchoo with takeout -- I wasn't aware that that was a noun -- and there may or may not have been physical comforting occurring there, either. Perhaps methods of comforting would make a good sermon topic. What do you think, squirrels?
*chittering*
I believe I still have the handcuffs.
Ino was bored in her room, and fortunately enough received a call from Romeo. We can only assume that he actually intended to call her, after this weekend's nonsense. She also received a visit from Hayley, involving a trenchcoat and a flash.
Townies:
Luke's Diner today featured something of a fancy menu at Lacey's bequest, though I can't imagine what the occasion might be for such a thing. Ender worked on a prototype of some sort at Stark Industries, thereby demonstrating the creativity and invention for which mortal-kind is known. Ben visited with a usual coffee -- as opposed, I assume, to an unusual one -- prompting Ender to be concerned about ruts. I assure you, Ender, the roads here appear to be well paved. Over at Town Hall, Cable and Jan found themselves confronted with a spontaneous manifestation of a small, free-flowing body of water. In any other community, such a thing might be considered miraculous, or at least cause for some sort of investigation. Here, it's perhaps best to follow Robin's example, and ignore it.
Unless it, say, were to turn into rum.
*chittering*
I'd only be gone a moment.
*chittering*
Very well. Liz manned the desk at the Arms, and Claire decluttered Android's Dungeon, where she got a call from Gunn regarding strange phone messages. Worf demonstrated his particular rationality and intelligence by avoiding his voicemail while working at Wellspring Arms, Alex did inventory at the Magic Box, and Joan put apology bouquets on sale at Covent Garden Flowers. I wasn't aware that flowers were traditional for such things. Surprisingly, I've received not a single bloom at the church.
Karla and Dinah put on magical wings and played tag off of Selkie Peak. It must be quite nice to be satisfied with only flying within the general bounds of the island. I haven't managed a good flight since this summer. I may have to rectify that. Aprhodite took to day dreaming at her Decadent Delights shop before receiving a phone call, which prompted her to turn Drake down for a date, which I can only assume he took with more grace than he did when he attempted to woo me.
*chittering*
Yes, yes, love spell. It's been explained.
Dani was unhappy with a piece of racing news over at the Gig. What was the news racing? Did it win? Claudia opened Book Haven for her first day of work. I don't know if she was unhappy or not. Makita also had her first day of work, over at Pixie Dust, and I must say, I'm impressed by the industrious nature of the students on this island. Sophie put up a new exhibit of star photography at Fourth Dimension. I have not visited the gallery in some time. I should rectify that. Irulan considered artwork for her own store, the Imperial Brim. I would recommend it. Humanity, for all it's various faults, does amazing things with art. Over at Caritas, Adrian found himself confronted with flying zombie bits, which one would hope are not going to be the next things to attack the island. Carnivorous vegetation was quite exciting enough, thank you. And lastly, that Millie woman made imprudent use of her powers to fling things around in the clinic in the name of "straightening up".
And now, if you're all out of notes and rum, I really must be getting back to what I was doing. *chittering* Excellent.
Good night, Fandom. I hope each of you sleeps well if it's in your nature to sleep, and none of you tries to start the Apocalypse. Remember, it's just generally a bad idea.
*chittering*
