Fandom Radio, Monday, February 22
Zoe: You know, you didn't have to drag us over here. I'm sure we would have come willingly. At least, I would have.
John: I still say you should've let me shoot them.
Zoe: You can't shoot them, they're a necessary evil. If they touch Grace though, I think we could get away with injuring them.
John: We could always see if we can make squirrel tail hats come in style.
Zoe: Oh, I like the way you think. I do believe we're getting little squirrel glares now.
John: Not exactly the most intimidating thing I've ever seen.
Zoe: Definitely closer to the "adorable" end of the spectrum. I suppose we should take their notes before they try to look fearsome and hurt themselves.
School and Dorms
Zoe: No news here, because you're all in the Bahamas, or at home with your families, or off by yourself in a huge city doing god only knows what and not getting into trouble there if you know what's good for you. Hypothetically speaking.
John: At least try to keep plausible deniability.
Zoe: And call if you run into trouble. That goes for all of you, actually.
Town
Zoe: Angua had a quiet day with the troopers at the Trooper Station, and Lacey was having a somber day at Luke's Diner when Angua stopped in for lunch; they got to talking about Lacey's choice of specials, and whether or not they prefer the island in its currently near-silent state.
Dani got to deal with loose chickens at The Gig, Irulan had all kinds of new hats to put out at The Imperial Brim and Adrian arrived at Caritas to find Tino with a kitten. Hopefully it's a real kitten, and not a person. Dimitri came in for his weekly Adrian-watching duties, but really, they just played with the kitten the whole time. That's the effect kittens have on people, I think. Alysha stopped in as well, and once Dimitri checked her out, she and Adrian played with the kitten as well.
Spring Break
Zoe: Well, it looks like things are off to a good start in the Bahamas. George tried to help Kyle find clothes that would help him fit in among the crowds of people on vacation. Kennedy and Tara slept in, and then made plans for what was left of their day. Dinah and Triela worked together to get Triela into her new bikini, and I want every single boy who's listening to this right now to get your minds out of the gutter.
John: Do you have a bikini?
Zoe: I might have something bikini-like. You'd better get your mind out of the gutter too.
John: That's not what you were saying last night.
Zoe: Shhh, save that for later. Or for our trip so I can watch Mal's eyes bug out of his head. Over on the beach, Ender was working on his laptop when Ben spotted him and pointed out that spring break means not having to work. Ender insisted that he was relaxing, and that had better be true, because we don't convince the school board to send you on these trips so you can stay stressed out.
John: How do you convince the school board to foot the bill for these trips?
Zoe: I am very, very good at being persuasive, and in return, I don't ask where they get the money from. Tahiri was being good and actually relaxing on the beach. Ben helped her with her sunscreen and they talked about how amazing the beach and the ocean are there. Leia was soaking up the sun, until Anakin saw her and disapproved of her swimwear, particularly the small amount of fabric that made up said swimwear. I think that in addition to dating, wearing bikinis should be on the "Things Grace Isn't Allowed To Do Until She's 30" list.
John: She can wear one, we just have to make sure her brothers are around to kick anybody's ass who tries to take advantage.
Zoe: Hmm. I think I can live with that. Jaime was enjoying the scenery at the beach - and that had better mean the ocean scenery - when Dinah found him and asked him how his trip home went. Mat was wearing his brand new shorts, which Alex found to be a little too loud. Aravis' complaint, on the other hand, was that he was lying on the beach and not doing anything active to enjoy himself.
Aphrodite and Max talked about how to make the most of their day, since there's nothing like the Bahamas in Max's world. I'd say that's probably true for a lot of people from Fandom. Dinah teased Aphrodite about being on the trip with Max, and Karla caught up with Aphrodite and Max so she and the goddess could go off to the Olympics.
Priestly told Dinah that she was crazy for wanting to learn how to surf, Emma and Sookie read books and worked on their tans, and Triela and Leda commiserated about the discomfort of wearing bikinis. Girls, you can all look just as pretty in one piece bathing suits. Will you back me up here?
John: If you're asking about the students, then my answer is yes. If you're asking about yourself... no, you need a bikini.
Zoe: ...I can't really argue with that answer, can I? In addition to the spa, there were all kinds of activities to do on the trip. You can't say we don't know how to pick a good vacation spot. Jack and Leto went to the restaurant and enjoyed their version of a pina colada. This is me being good and not commenting on any of your drinking habits. In healthier news, Kennedy tried the rock climbing wall, and was joined by Jaina, who wanted to give it a shot as well.
It looks like a lot of you managed to find your way outside of the resort too this morning. There was a trip to Dolphin Cay, where Bod and Didi talked about what a wonderful time they're having so far. I'm starting to not mind getting dragged into this so much now. Didi and Robin played with the dolphins while Claudia and Jacob played with sea lions and talked about never having been to a place like the Bahamas before. Again, I'm going to assume that goes for most of you, considering how many of you went on the water adventures too. I hope you don't mind that we're going to be missing out on water adventures.
John: I'm sure we'll have our own adventures, water completely optional. At the Regal Towers, where everyone is staying, Jonas was spending the night in with a book, as did Sookie, though not together, the squirrels assure me, or in a dirty way. Karla got back from the Olympics and put on her bathing suit and the squirrels want me to insist they are not pervs. Hate to break it to you, but if you're reporting on girls putting on bathing suits, you're probably skirting the edges of it at least.
Zoe: And it isn't like what you do isn't perverted to begin with.
John: Squirrel tail hats. I'm just sayin'. At the Aura Nightclub, Alex Karev got a drink and found a spot at the bar. Jaina took some time away from the casino at the bar where she was surprised to run into Puck.
Griff hit the Atlantis Beach Bar, as did Hannibal who got a drink and then stretched out. Summer also got a drink and was watching the ocean, as was Aravis. Which I think is the squirrels way of saying that vacation makes this a slow news day.
Zoe: As long as it sounds like everyone's enjoying themselves, I'm perfectly happy with the speed of the news.
John: Because of course if nothing happened, it's impossible to just say that and not drag people to the radio station to go into detail about exactly how much nothing it was. At the Temple of the Sun Casino, Fraser consoled Robin over the US beating Canada in the hockey game. Jim couldn't take the camera into the casino, which irritated Angela Martin because she wanted to complain to the camera about her trip. Is it just me or are there some people who are just not getting what being on vacation means?
Zoe: I think some people need vacation assistance. Hopefully they'll be able to relax before the week's over.
John: Hopefully. But not our problem this week. And since it is a casino, some people were actually gambling. Jaina sucked at blackjack, while Mat was doing extremely well at the craps table, and taught Rose how to play. And everyone, ignore the fact that the squirrels have me and your principal reporting on things like students gambling.
Zoe: If I can ignore the drinking, I can ignore the gambling too. I just hope no one's trying to do both at the same time.
John: Yeah. The trick is to make everyone else think you've been drinking while not actually doing so. Then you can... Right. Shouldn't give hustling lessons on the air. Bod had dinner at the Point, Angela Martin had had it with the prices at the shops, and Rory and Anakin had ice cream at Ben and Jerry's before calling Lorelei again to check on Juliet.
Zoe: I don't think I can mock that. I know how I'd be if we weren't taking Grace with us on vacation.
John: Depends on who we leave her with. We managed to not be neurotic about phoning home when we were on our honeymoon because the boys had her.
Zoe: That, and someone was keeping me very well distracted.
John: So I guess that means that Anakin is falling down on the job.
Zoe: I'm sure he'll take care of the matter later. And speaking of matters taken care of, I think we're all out of notes. If we can get released here, we can get Grace into bed.
John: She's out like a light anyway, which is the only reason I haven't started in on the squirrel tail hats.
Zoe: Maybe we should get you out of here before things get violent. If anyone's still listening, have a good night.
John: I still say you should've let me shoot them.
Zoe: You can't shoot them, they're a necessary evil. If they touch Grace though, I think we could get away with injuring them.
John: We could always see if we can make squirrel tail hats come in style.
