Fandom Radio, Friday, August 27

[bigdamnprincipal]

Zoe: Good evening, Fandom. Those of you who are still here, at least.

Dean: It's that time of year alright. I'll be heading out myself when we're done here.

Zoe: Don't remind me. That's the last thing I want to think about tonight.

Dean: You going to miss me?

Zoe: Oh no, I'm so excited about getting rid of you. *laughing* Of course I'm going to miss you.

Dean: Still nice to hear.

Zoe: Of course, I won't have to miss you that much because you'll come back to visit me often, right?

Dean: Do I even need to say it? Of course, if there's pie, it might get me to come back even more...

Zoe: I'll see what I can do about keeping the kitchen stocked up.

Dean: Awesome. So, we should probably start doing these notes...

Zoe: Yes, I suppose they're not going to read themselves, are they?


School News

Zoe: Since we're still on our break week, the only note here is that I was in my office, preparing for tomorrow's onslaught of new folks. Try not to make too many of them take their shirts off, no matter how nice the weather is.

Dean: Hey, shirtlessness is a school tradition by now!

Zoe: I know, that's what I'm afraid of.


Dorm News

Dean: So over in the dorms, it is as you might expect at the end of summer, all about people leaving. Like Chuck Bass, who spent the day making sure he hadn't left a stray sock or scarf or anything in his room. Hannibal said he'd never seen a room that empty and there's discussion about sabotaging their rooms so no one else can have them. Yeah, I don't think dorm rooms work that way.

Zoe: No, they don't, gentlemen.

Dean: Hey, no one's used my room yet, have they?

Zoe: No, but that's more coincidence than anything else.

Dean: Or I'm just awesome that way. Chuck also admitted to Raven that he was an ass to her -- and that there is some personal growth being demonstrated -- and she apologized for trying to help.

Dinah and Chuck compared destinations and agreed they're not the type to stay here. Hey, if there's somewhere you're going to stay, there's a hell of a lot worse places to pick than here. I'm just saying.

Hannibal also was packing up the last of his stuff in preparation to leaving. He and Kate decided they'll be okay because they're both awesome which somehow led to discussion over how Hannibal would be hotter if he was a girl.

Keeping with the girl theme, Puck thought Hannibal should leave him a list of girls for him and checked on how Hannibal and Angela were doing. Hopefully the answer is damned good because as Angela's honorary big brother, I'd be forced to hurt him if the answer was anything else.

Peter made sure he'll get a call before any Vegas trips and said he might start blogging to keep Hannibal updated. While Peter offered blogs, Sookie brought brownies for the road, which has to be one of the most awesome going away gifts a guy can get.

Zoe: Really? Not pie?

Dean: One of the most awesome. Pie is awesomer. Hannibal invited Ender into his empty-ass room, and Ino said the empty room scared her.

Raven showed up via Soul Self to say good bye and they talked about fanfic. Yeah, not a topic I'm really comfortable with, considering most of the conversations I've had about it, involve an angel writing it to prove people are wrong on the internet.

Zoe: That's...a unique thing, I think. Gwynn did one more check around her newly bare room, and Karla had herself a little cry. I know this is an especially hard time of year, girls, and you're not alone in being upset, trust me. Peter, Cloud, and Ender all came to check up on Karla, and Cassidy came to check up and brought cookies. Smart girl.

Dean: Y'know, this broadcast is making me hungry.

Zoe Maybe I'll have to send you off with some food then.

Dean: Best stepmom ever.

Zoe: I try. Ino made a phone call, and Bod found Kate putting together a kit for her new little sibling - which is a very good idea, I must say - and that somehow led to a conversation about sleeping together platonically. That's the kind of sleeping together that I greatly prefer hearing about, thank you.

Dean: Nothing wrong with the non-platonic kind as long as everyone's on the same page.

Zoe: Exactly. Up in the common rooms, baking seems to have been everyone's focus today. Cassidy was baking in the second floor common room, and Alexander had breakfast food up on the fourth floor, which he happily shared with Rilla.


Town Notes

Zoe: Piper was sitting outside her house - or her old house, I suppose, since she's leaving. Cally tried to convince her to stay, and Piper assured her that she'd come back and visit. See, goodbyes don't always have to be permanent here.

Faith woke up at Wellspring Arms, looking very confused, and Jaime took Dinah to the causeway to say goodbye to her one last time.

Jenny was setting up a back to school display at Pixie Dust, Chloe was setting up a superhero display at Android's Dungeon, Arya was clearing out the stock room at Coyote Medicine, Delirium was in a somber mood at Groovy Tunes, Martha was doing a pre-new folks inventory check at the clinic, and Mary found Gunther crying over everyone leaving at The Arms Hotel. I guess this time of year really effects everyone.

Raven found Jono in the park, where he apparently stayed all night after Didi...I just want to remind all of you that if you ever need someone to talk to, I know you all have each other, but my door is always open to students too.

Anyway, Jaina and Faith played pool at Fast Eddie's, and Jessica had her first night of work at Caritas, where she got a visit from Sookie, who wanted to check up on her and congratulate her on the job.

Dean: And don't forget the rule that Winchesters get free drinks.

Zoe: We...yes, that's right, we do. It's a very important rule.

Dean: Damn straight.

Zoe: Well, that's all of the notes. I suppose we should go so you can go.

Dean: Yeah. Don't want to keep Chuck waiting too long. Though if there's pie, he can wait a little longer...

Zoe: *laughing* I'll have to see what's in the fridge. As for the rest of you, have a good night.

Dean: Night, Fandom. Try not to wreck the island when I'm gone.
