Fandom Radio, Friday, August 13
Zoe: Good evening, Fandom! It's nice to have everyone in the same place this week.
Dean: Seriously. Now if we can just get a big delivery of RAID...
Zoe: I take it you don't find the new bugs entertaining?
Dean: You've heard the kind of music I listen to. What do you think?
Zoe: I think not even blasting good music from the Impala can save things, unfortunately.
Dean: Hence the need for giant cans of bug spray.
Zoe: I'd still take the bugs over people being missing, annoying as they are.
Dean: Point.
Zoe: Still, we can get some bug spray on the way home, just for you.
School News
Zoe: This week's Five Senses class dealt with the sense of touch by getting their hands on different items and trying to guess what they were feeling.
Dean: That sounds like it could be so dirty...
Zoe: Oh no, don't worry, all the dirty got saved for a certain other class today. The Pottery-Making students got to continue to mess with clay on the pottery wheel. Bobby fell asleep in class, but Rilla checked up on him. I know we're getting close to the end of the semester, but that doesn't mean you can all start falling asleep in your workshops whenever you'd like.
The Dating, Hooking Up, and Sex students worked on their sex toy project, which is the sort of thing that makes me glad none of our school board members can hear these broadcasts, and learned about how to date and hook up when Fandom is being strange. Like when there are bugs driving everyone crazy?
Dean: Definitely a good example. Or when you or your significant other gets turned into a yak. Or goat or something.
Zoe: Or a plastic doll. Ah, that was an interesting weekend.
Dean: I know it was interesting for me and Sammy. But I really don't want to know how it was interesting for you and Dad. There's just some things even I don't want to think about.
Zoe: I suppose I can keep that to myself then. I'll try very hard. The Practical Marksmanship class discussed how what they've learned was useful to them last weekend, and the First Aid class used cow legs to learn how to deal with certain injuries, like a throwing star, an animal scratch, a blunt trauma, and burns.
And the Cons and Confidence class was about neuro-linguistic programming and how it's used in sales. Then, the students were set loose in a mall to try their new skills out.
Dorm and Cabin News
Dean: Over in the dorms, Helen discovered her roommate Chloe is now a bluebird. See, for those who were in my class today, that's the kind of thing I was talking about. Yaks, bluebirds, all pretty much the same thing.
Sookie unpacked while Bobby slept, until he woke up to the smell of coffee, and they discussed whether they were up for classes. Kennedy came by and told Sookie that they weren't looking too good, and told Bobby that she was thinking of yelling at him for being gone too long, but they ended up talking about kitty-Tara instead. Which, again, is probably an even better example of what we were talking about in class today. Though I still think Sammy as a yak was the best example.
Zoe: And do you think he shares that feeling?
Dean: I'm sure he'll agree being a yak put a crimp in his weekend. Elsewhere, Ben woke up from a nightmare and got checked up on by both Karla and Tahiri, both of whom tell him he just can't give up on sleep altogether. Which yeah, is true, but I totally understand the desire to do so sometimes. Especially nightmare filled times.
You could try finding a way of repressing, like Alex Karev was doing. His approach was to use smoking and drinking to repress. Which, if you imbibe a large enough amount...
Zoe: Is a very, very bad thing, right?
Dean: I guess it would depend on the situation and what you're trying to repre- Oh. Right. Yeah, very bad thing. Very. Bad. Very.
Zoe: Well done. There's hope for you yet as a responsible adult.
Dean: I feel like such a sell out. And Millie and her cat were out by Cricket campfire. As long as the only bugs serenading them were crickets, sounds like a nice way to spend the evening.
Zoe: Much better than dealing with louder bugs, I'm sure.
Town Notes
Zoe: Arya made sure Coyote Medicine was bug-free for her shift, and Aphrodite had to deal with a strange order of sex toys at Dite's Decadent Delights. Go on, you know you want to say something.
Dean: My mind's too busy boggling over what Aphrodite might consider strange when it comes to sex toys.
Zoe: ...okay, you do have a point there. Harper had to deal with some broken merchandise at Things Reborn, Hope was drinking a ton of coffee at Turtle and Canary, and Asuna and Karla met up out in the preserve to spend the afternoon together.
There was plenty of non-bug music at Caritas tonight, which I'm sure made Dimitri very happy as he watched over the place. Jaina and Dimitri talked about Jaina being older now, especially older than Rose, who also stopped by to see how many free drinks she could get out of Dimitri.
Dean: What, no editorial comment about how drinking is bad?
Zoe: It's not the best idea for students, but the three of them are all adults, so they can take care of themselves now.
Dean: Age is just a number, y'know.
Zoe: But it also represents who I have to be responsible for, and who I don't.
Dean: So in other words as long as the students are sneaky about it...?
Zoe: I can't complain about things I don't know about.
Dean: You heard it here first, people. If you're going to do stuff like drinking and all, just be sneaky.
Zoe: *laughs* You're going to get me into so much trouble. Come on, we should get out of here before you make me agree to something else bad.
Dean: Like stopping for a whiskey on the way home?
Zoe: Yes, exactly like that. Have a good night, everyone!
Dean: Seriously. Now if we can just get a big delivery of RAID...
