Fandom Radio, June 13
Hello and good evening, Fandom! This is Lieutenant Archie Kennedy manning the tiller for you on a nonsticky Tuesday night. Let's see what today's log tells us about what mischief we've all been up to, shall we?
Workshopping
Chloe's writing workshop met this morning and talked about gossip. But did they actually put any of this talk into practice? Oh wait, folks, that's what I and my fellow broadcasters are here for. Gossip in action right here, ladies and gentlemen. They talked about other things as well: Janet and Marie talked about cheerleading and Liz and Janet passed notes. Cameron asked Chloe why she was teaching them a bad habit. Cameron, my dear smurfy boy, at least she wasn't teaching you to pick your noses or overindulge in alcohol. Some of you don't need any help learning that last one, anyhow.
First Aid also met this morning and learned about the nervous system. People were chatty, as they are quite frequently in classes around here, and practiced first aid techniques on Danger Shop simulations. They also had the opportunity to make posters for the Art Fair.
The Documentary workshop learned about conducting interviews by interviewing the workshop instructors, Jay and Silent Bob. *pause* How much of an interview did you get out of Silent Bob, anyhow?
Moving on to afternoon workshops, Archery used real arrows again, but this time, with smaller targets. And, as is always the case with this group, there was a lot of talking, the majority of which centered around Bel being stuck in his demon form. Really, I'm surprised that Miho hasn't killed anyone yet. No virtual teal deer appear to have died either. I might be sadder about that than about the students.
There was a lot of talking in Scoobying as well, but it's all in gibberish, which is apparently a real language. Bloody hell, learn something new every day around here -- not necessarily useful, but new. After the workshop, Willow stopped by to talk to Xander, Nadia asked about his injury, and Bridge and Xander realized that they almost missed their anniversary.
And finally, this evening, Campfire Stories and Songs met. Professor Ted told the story of "Belloe and the Beast." Then Nadia told a creepy story and they sang a song about what to do with a drunken gremlin. I know one thing for sure about a drunken gremlin: I don't want anyone putting it in my longboat.
Oh, and before I forget, the library was open. Tim acquired his library card, and Elizabeth and Rory -- hello, Rory! -- talked about hair and, er, ancient Egyptian texts. Was there a segue there? I'm not sure how that would happen.
Wardroom, Sickbay, and the Chain of Command
In the mess hall today, Pippi, Seras, Pip, Walter, and Nadia ate lunch -- as one does in the mess hall -- and talked about feeling out of sorts. It would not surprise me at all if those two events were connected. Ranma and Sakurazaki also ate lunch, but I have no reports of any ill effects.
And as ill effects are the domain of the clinics, Doctor Troy had a visit from Sam Winchester, who was there to see Buffy, and John Connor stopped in. Good Lord, John, finally? How the devil have you been expecting to work on those tiny clockwork gears with that arm hobbled? Doctor Lambert's shift, however, was quiet.
Professor Dean Tick was, as far as my notes tell me, sadly unvisited during his office hours.
In the Crew Berths
There were people in the gym this morning. Of course there were people in the gym this morning. I'm pleased to hear that Veronica's self-defense lessons with Cameron are going well, though Cameron, if you leave her with bruises again I may have to be slightly upset. He told her that he was still taking baby steps with Molly, and she told him how to recall email. She's good at that sort of thing, isn't she?
In the fourth floor common room this morning, Willow apparently performed a spell that caused Alec and Dean to switch bodies. Which may not be all that confusing to anyone who wasn't them, considering that they're our most recent Doppelganger Duo. And Alec discovered the reason behind half the school's addiction to coffee, much to Dean's smug satisfaction. Trust me, you all wouldn't be so addicted to it if you had to make do for months on end with blackened bread crumbs brewed like coffee grounds. I feel safe in assuming that this makeshift brew was not what Janet and Parker had today.
Bel, who appears to be stuck in his demon form at the moment and that can't have been a pleasant awakening for him and Phoebe, was skulking in the hallways this afternoon. He was rather, as my notes say, "accusey" with Marie, although Pippi kindly invited him to go shopping and Sakurazaki and he bonded. Faithful, on the other hand, was not so kind and was taunting him. Walter encouraged him to do non-demon things, and Nadia didn't do it. Veronica wanted to know who he was trying to kill this time. Anakin apparently mistook Bel for someone else, Pip was rather inquisitive about the whole thing, and John Connor . . . er . . . yawned and coughed. The whole incident was the subject of a discussion between Veronica and Piper later on.
In the fifth floor common room, English Peter was watching soccer. At least, that's what my notes insist -- in a very EMPHATIC way -- that it's called. He was joined by fellow enthusiasts Seras, with whom he discussed strange events from yesterday, and Pippi. He also sang "Rule Britannia," and I missed it. Damn.
Pippi was later out on the gun range with Pip, while in the third floor common room Dawn was singing along with classic musicals; Dean found her singing much to his liking, and English Peter wanted to know if her next number would be a dance. She was joined by the lovely Parker for a lively discussion on the topic. Parker and Lyta also had a bit of a discussion about musical stars they would date, and Parker found out about Dean and Alec's body swap, as well as chatting with Tyler. Dean and English Peter caught up, and Peter must really be interested in soccer, as he was discussing it with Parker as well. I had no idea that sport had become so popular, honestly. Elizabeth met Dawn and talked about yesterday's spate of honesty with Peter, then discussed cheerleading and photography with Parker.
Being completely honest all the time, even for a day, must be draining: Veronica, Nadia, and Tyler were all feeling its effects this morning. Molly was sleeping rather soundly tonight, but I don't think that was due to the whole blasted honesty thing.
Anders met Cedric and Jack the fox -- literally as well as figuratively, for the time being -- and Sam Carter stopped in to check on him as well, and got pumpkin juice out of the deal.
. . . pumpkin? Interesting. Bridge and Xander discussed anniversary matters, and Aeryn and John talked about what was on the radio.
On Shore Leave
Lucas got a phone call and headed out of town, and Artie was hiding; I wonder if this is because Caritas was incredibly busy for a Tuesday night? Elle was there; she talked to Veronica about the oddities of Fandom, students-as-animals and boys included. Ask some people, and I'm sure they'll tell you those are the most significant of the oddities; others might tell you the opposite, though. She also talked to Tim about singing, and to Clark about his fashion sense. Oh, and I was there to see Veronica as usual. I didn't monopolize her time, though, as she also talked to Tim about her workshop and about movie night, to Nadia about truth spells and their ramifications, to Tyler about his time in Fandom thus far, and to Clark about his new position managing the hotel. Nadia and Tyler, meanwhile, tried to figure out whether or not they'd met before,
Cafe Fina was open, though not quite so busy, as were Sparky Repairs, All and Sundries, and Empire Records, where Jamie was stuck listening to Yoko Ono all day. I'm told this is a bad thing. Mister Giles's bookshop was also open, and both River and Doctor Lambert dropped in.
While Willow introduced English Peter to pizza, Jude introduced Sakurazaki to his moves in the park where Ranma later watched the sunset.
Speaking of which, the figurative sun is now setting on my time in the broadcast booth with you tonight. It's been a busy night and my drink had no alcohol in it, so I'm for my bed. Fare thee well, Fandom; this is Archie Kennedy striking colors and signing off, wishing you all a fair wind and clear skies, and a very good night indeed.
Honestly.

He was, however, currently lying in bed with his pillow over his face, mumbling something that sounded like a very muffled version of "First detention with the scary ninja, then archery workshop with the scary ninja, and I'm doomed to miss just about the entire World Cup this year, aren't I? Doomed!"

She then hoped that certain people had somehow managed to miss that broadcast.
