WTFH

*chittering*

No. Not really.

*chittering*

I actually thought you'd decided to stop bothering me. Sadly, I'm not that lucky.

Let's see, the only School news, was Shenanigans, where 'sharing was chairing', where the voluntolds had to share an increasingly smaller number of chairs. I'm sure it all ended in tears, or random passers-by being flung at Anakin. Possibly both.

Nothing much for the Dorms, while in Town, it was date night at the boarding house, and at Caritas ice-cream jello was the flavour of the day. In between the usual nonsense on stage, Atton was quite negative about the jello theme, which might be why Summer sought reassurance from Rey, Stark was mostly relieved there were no horrors, and Stewart was there.

That's everything?

*chittering*

Quiet day.

Up at the School, the only things that was happening was Shenanigans down in the park, where Anakin inflicted socks upon the voluntolds, which needless to say certain people used as an excuse for flirting, because they cannot get a room, Stewart was very attached to his 'adorable shark' socks, baffling Hannibal. Then everyone had to balance tanks of mysterious liquid on their feet, to varying levels of success.

Nothing for the Dorms, while in Town, Adrian dipped his wick making candles at Pick Your Poison, while at Caritas, Tino implied there were others like him by claiming it was his brother's birthday, though neither person taking the stage seemed inclined to celebrate. Stark was...awkward, Stewart brought along dubious brownies, and Atton was remarkably judgemental for someone who deals with his problems by faking his death.

*chittering*

Oh, I know I am, but I've never done that.

Oh, it's you again not Leroy.

*chittering*

The fact I know Leroy's name is enough of a hardship. Let's see what's been happening.

Unsurprisingly, it's been another quiet week up at the School, with the only sign of life being Arden in the Library, which is still more activity than in the Dorms.

Over in Town, there was drama at Furnado about noodles in fishtanks, but Liliana heroically saved the day. I doubt anyone really wants to know how that happened. Summer was smug enough at Caritas to put Tino in a mood, and I can't say I disapprove on principle. Her patrons for the evening included...an entire argument about whether Atton was a zombie or a clone, because apparently we needed enough squirrels there to have that fight, Stark, who wondered about robots with hair dye, and Percy and his burgeoning pop rock addiction.

*aggrieved chittering*

No, you have only yourself to blame, and also, I don't care.

It was finals week up at the School, where 2 British 2 Bake relaxed with a movie and each other's food, and Bettering Your Community went to a nude beach. As you do.

The Dorms continued their quiet streak, while in Town, it was date night at Lucifier's, and "clout chasing jello" night at Caritas, where Rey came by for a drink and to admire the jello, and was immediately hit up for caf by Anakin, who was accompanying Stark in to buy him a drink to apologise for 'throwing him off a building', and I am not reading any of that colour commentary Leroy, because once again, I do not care what you think. Anakin also informed Summer that the shirts were arriving, just in case anyone was hoping he'd forgotten. also came by for a drink. Presumably clothed.

*chittering*

That's none of your concern, Leroy.

*chittering*

No, I didn't.

Moving on, up at the School, Introduction to Palentology discussed tribades, actually I'm pretty sure they didn't, but that's what someone wrote, while British-American Bake-Off tackled fancy French pastries, and Bettering Your Community did some "red-hot" arts and crafts.

Arden was watching videos in the Library when she got visits from Cal and Gray one of which involved "smooching".

Nothing much happened in the Dorms, while in Town, Quinn was at the Perk, having coffee and conversation with Hannibal, and it was date night at the boarding house.

That's a short stack of notes this week.

*chittering*

Do I sound like I was complaining?

*chittering*

I always sound like...watch it, Leroy.

Up at the School, there were explosions in Introduciton to Palaeontology, microwaves in British-American Bake-Off, and bloodstains in Bettering Your Community, so a normal enough day. There was some kind of snake uprising in the Library, along with visits from Kamala and Gray.

Nothing happened in the Dorms, while in Town, Octavia was mostly trying to get rid of the green drinks at the Devil's Nest.

*chittering*

Oh, overjoyed. Can't you tell.

Let's see, classes were back on at the School, except for Introduction to Palaeontology, which was cancelled. British Bake-Off But For Americans had a tropical theme, after they presented their pre-break bakes of course, there were donuts and something called butter mochi. Building Better Communities were at the library, again, while at the actual Library, Arden was slacking.

The Dorms continued their being quiet streak, while in Town, Caritas saw Summer having deep thoughts about the secret menu, secret menu, secret secret menu, yeah, while texting, Rey was recovering from break, and Stark made plans to find more beach.

Yes, you probably should get that looked at.

No. By someone not me. I don't know, a vet.

In any case, for news not involving squirrel flashers. Up at the Introduction to Paleontology talked about...science. Not The British Bake-Off went from jello to chocolate, while Bettering Your Community went to a library, but not the Library, which was...full of bats. As well as Kamala and Gray.

Nothing much at the Dorms, while in Town, Adrian was in his grove when he got a visit from Pam and her drama, it was definitely not shirtless Wednesday at the Devil's Nest, and at Caritas Tino set up a jello pit tug-of-war, and those are words that I had to read. Witnesses to this crime against good taste included Rey, Stark, and Dean, apparently non of whom considered an intervention.

I see from the whole two post-its that it was a slow day yesterday.

Up at the School, Introduction to Palaeontology had a movie day, Not The British Bake-Off showed off gingerbread houses before having a pie day, and Better Communities focused on self-care.

Nothing happened in the Dorms, while in Town Summer was moodily celebrating the Year of the Snake at Caritas, along with Rey and Stark, when she got a cheese delivery.

*chittering*

My ideal...oh, that's easy. Not having to put up with you, Leroy.

Up at the School, Intro to Palentology intro-ed the fossil record, while Bake-Off focused on bread and butter, at least after showing off their cakes of which Kitty's was apparently the best. They made two kinds of bread, as well as getting a homework assignment to...okay, now Leroy is just making things up.

Bettering Your Community went over to the mainland to help out at an animal shelter, and it was "too hot, hot damn" in the Library.

It was a quiet day in the Dorms, while in Town, Octavia had to deal with Tiny's bright ideas at the Devil's Nest, while Caritas was all about celebrating Stark's birthday. Luckily, Stark was actually there to receive well wishes from Summer and a bunch of other people, amongst those turning up were Watts, Rey, Anakin, and Steven.

I see none of you had the resolution of not waking me up before dawn reeking of rum.

Let's see if anything happened yesterday.

Nothing at the School. Nothing in the Dorms. A couple of things in Town, where Prompto spent his time trying to convince the animals at Furnado to commit to resolutions. He seems to have missed the squirrels. Bucky decided to solicit Jesse's opinion on his new haircut, and finally at Caritas, Summer learned the dangers of extending Tino goodwill, while Stark learned the dangers of having too many opinions on the jello. So you can blame him for whatever horrors appear next week.

Well, that is a short set of notes. And the intern is already at the rum.

Up at the School, Introduction to Fossils went on a field trip to the Smithsonian for their final, Exploring US History went to the DC Winter Market, and Morality of Action asked the question we've all been asking all along.

Nothing much happened in the Dorms, while in Town, Percy hooked up at the Forge, while it was all Yule Log, no safety concerns at Caritas, where Stark came by to talk about eating cookie dough. Literally, apparently.

*chittering*

No, it's not going to rain rum next, it never rains rum.

Up at the School, Intro to Fossils watched a movie, while Exploring Us History said screw Reagan right before Tony turned into a cat. Moralilty of Action had Dante show up to make the class rescue a princess and learn a "valuable" lesson. Arden was making present lists in the Library when Gray came to visit and turned into a sloth.

The Dorms were quiet and presumably full of potato, as was Town, where it presented a serious problem at Furnado, it was date night at both the boarding house and Lucifer's, and things were on fire at Caritas, but sadly not Tino, Percy, who is new, apparently, discovered the joys of alcoholic jello, something Yelena in particular was there for, though she probably didn't expect Logan to turn into a wolverine on her. Stark was worried about latkes, Dante and Kathy made an appearance, as did a pre-transformation Logan.

I see the intern is already into the rum, back to no dorm news I take it?

*chittering*

Figured.

Up at the School, Introduction to Fossils was all about clams, apparently, while Us History followed up the biggest twine with the biggest hole in the ground.

As expected, nothing happened in the Dorms, while in Town, Prompto had a 'chook book ' whatever thet is at Furnado, while Jesse and Bucky were at the Perk. At Caritas, Summer judged Tino's stuffing, and ifI have to read that sentence, you have to have heard it. Yelena wanted all the jello shots and had a discussion about how amazing the squir- seriously, Leroy? Anakin did not learn his lesson about cookie theft, Stark learned that nothing can make up for Tino, Summer texted, and Liliana demanded birthday drinks.

Why are there so many...I can't even see the microphone.

*chittering*

Well, for once that's actually helpful.

Slow day. Let's see, up at the School, Fossils looked at dead plants, and US History had a movie day. While in the Library, the gremlins had an entirely predictable reaction to Arden not bringing candy.

Nothing in the Dorms, and over in Town, soup was on the menus at Luke's, cozy was the theme of the day at the Perk, where Liliana, Lucifer, and Remy enjoyed half-price comfort drinks. It was datenight at the boarding house, while Caritas continued to have a pillow fort, mostly occupied by Tino. Stark did, however, bring cookies.

Oh. I suppose it was too much to hope you'd get lost in Canada.

*shuffling paper*

Let's see...here on teh island, the School and Dorms were both deserted. Shocking I know, while in Town, Lucifer and Duke had a date, and the music was loud at the Devil's Nest.

Meanwhile on the Trip, the morning saw Thor, Anakin, and Jon dealing with indoor thunder. I thought it was supposed to be a fancy hotel this time? Kamala was channeling her inner squirrel by hanging around Arden's room like an overvested creeper, Stewart and Gray enjoyed breakfast, and quite a few more people later went for afternoon tea, while Gladio spent most of his time at the gym. When it came to being out and about, whale watching was highly popular, as was the food tour. Summer went shopping, Kamala and Eleanor went on a library date, we have a library here, and Prompto went to the aquarium.

Later that evening, Nell and Gladio stayed in after Nell spent time in the spa, Adrian had to deal with a drunk roomie, Watts and Steven went out for a dinner date, while Steph and Vi did 'drag cabaret karaoke'. Also Summer had a room party, where apparently terrible, horrible things were done to poutine and alcohol. Amongst the witnesses to this event were Stark, Ignis, Dean, Gladio, Yelena, Stewart, Prompto, Adrian, Anakin, and Jon. All of whom, I assume have terrible poutine hangovers today.

Okay, time for radio, what I'm sure is the highlight of your week, because I know it's mine.

*inquisitive chittering*

No. It's not, actually.

Up at the School, Exploring American History had boxed lunches. Thrilling and vital news that. In Intro to Fossils, Cutter explained how radiography proves that the Earth is 'old as balls' and something, something evolution. The increasingly misnamed Morality of Action took the stance that trying to do good may have consequences, so don't, while in the Library, the gremlins were making Halloween decorations. That's not at all ominous.

The porg continues to have no Dorms news to report, while in Town, there was breakfast at the boarding house, and date night later. Pamela was in the preserve being 'weird' at the trees, and was later joined by Octavia. Over at the Parking Lot, Arden had a new second-hand car, and as Dean discovered, no license. Gray explained his brothers don't believe in 'take-backsies', and Charlie was impressed by Arden's new old car. Finally, the Devil's Nest was a Malort free zone.

That's everything?

*chittering*

Quiet day.

Up at the School, Exploring American History went to look at a war memorial, which Lydia was disturbed by, while Kamala and Eleanor snuck off for "half-smokes and canoodling". Who even says that, Leroy?

Morality of Action continued not taking action in favour of being shocked to learn there are Jedi on this island and ranting about how the Jedi were back in her day. The students indulged her I assume as a prelude to easing her into a much needed nap.

The Dorms were quiet, over in Town, Prompto played with the fishes in Furnado, while at Caritas Tino made gym pool pudding. Allegedly. Stark was suitably disgusted at the idea, Dean working his way around to Tino being dead to him, Summer texted, and Stewart was trying to figure out which one Tino was. The dumb one. Who is dead to Dean.

Why are you even drunker than usual?

*chittering*

I know it's a new semester, that's why you should be drinking less. Why do I even bother, just giver me the notes.

Classes were back, which means introductions continued apace up at the School, where Introduction to Fossils had introductions and resumably fossils, Exploring American History explored some hill, though Eleanor, Arden, and Lydia explored coffee and donuts instead. In Morality of Actions the lecture involved a lot of whining about not wanting to be on the island or teaching, because that's never happened to anyone here before, and also I need some volunteers, introductions were made, and then I assume the teacher went off for a snack and a nap.

Arden had to deal with book origami in the Library, but also had visits from Kamala who needs to eat more vegetables, and Gray who had a glittery scrapbook of his brothers.

Nothing much happening at the Dorms, and in Town, Senshi is now working at Luke's and had his first shift there, Prompto put hats on all the dogs at Furnado and most of everything else there too. Adrian built a tiny little house in the woods, which got Nell's attention, while at Caritas, Tino had a tiny little list.

Oh. It's that time of year again.

Stark came by for jello based flirting and making plans to be off the island, Summer texted, Adrian confirmed with Summer that he knew about phones, and told Stark about burying body parts, his own apparently, but was weirded out finding out about the ponies. Raiden talked with Summer about classes between devouring all the Jello donuts, and after a conversation about punching cards that may have been literal or figurative invited Adrian over for breakfast. Finally, Rey came in to let Summer and Stark know she was having a better week than last.

That's everything?

*chittering*

Slow news day.

Up at the School, it was all about Shenanigans, which involved small children and stupid hats. So, an excruciating experience for all involved. After the mingling, the volunteers got their hats and began child wrangling. Once they'd acquired a child, shout out to Flint for 'making his one cry', they had to provide toys, clean up after, not bake cookies, play 'keepy uppy', and eat nuggets. Sounds truly hellish.

No notes for the Dorms, not surprise there, while in Town, the only noteworthy thing that happened was Summer making the the terrible mistake of asking Tino questions at Caritas, luckily, Stark came by to tell her about his terrible shenanigans filled day and suggest they spend some time off this island. Not a bad plan.

So yesterday the island was in Chicago, and apparently today we're in... 'one of the square bits', which is why you don't palm geography off onto the intern, Leroy.

Up at the School, Arden was spending her Library shift deciding whether to go to a party. No notes on her actual decision.

Shenanigans volunteers got to play games inspired by Chicago, which included kayaking across the duckpond, a hot dog eating contest, and calling 'dibs' on parking. Aren't we all glad we've left Chicago now.

The Dorms continued their streak of being quiet, while in Town, Nell and Liliana had a day at the Onsen, where they talked about things like Liliana's classes and girls' nights. Things were quiet at the Devil's Nest.

Things were not as quiet at Caritas, where Summer's attempts at keeping Tino from adding malort to everything were hampered by her adding to the jello shots. He only takes it as encouragment, Summer. Annie came by for shots and conversation about her terrible world, Stark wasn't here last time the island got the wanders, lucky him, and Harley interrupted Summer's texting to demand all the jello. All of it.

Why is the porg wearing a tiny shirt?

*cheerful porg noises*

Honorary team member...I'm not going to pursue that any further.

Let's see, up at the School, Arden was in the Library, threatening to go to a higher authority about 'the voices'.

As for Shenanigans, Anakin was back, surprising the audience and volunteers with a relatively subdued water balloon and other objects including our intern fight. On rafts. In the middle of the duck pond. Never change, Anakin, people might start to worry.

Going by the porgs other activities, I'm going to guess there was no Dorms news, while in Town, Prompto was putting his child in cat beds at Furnado, when Liliana came by with cupcakes, and an invitation to some off-island music event.

Kamala held another movie night at the Murder Home, with quite a lot of mingling from Arden, Eleanor, Steven, Henry, Remy, Cal, and Illyana before the movie, with Arden and Cal taking a break to go sit on the roof and talk about not knowing things about this world. Which, highly overrated.

Octavia was trying to save energy at the Devil's Nest, while at Caritas there was a drunk cat trying to get phone numbers, something Harley thought was cute, and Stark barely even registered.

*odd thumping noises*

I'd ask what you were doing, but I don't actually want to know.

Up at the School, Arden was reading in the Library, when Gray came by to ask her some questions, presumably about books. Anakin was not around for Shenanigans, so instead of his usual antics we got 'violent furry roleplay', which I'm sure was fun for the audience and volunteers alike.

Meanwhile in the Dorms-

*excited porg noises*

Yes, I saw that. Gray had an early morning phone call.

Over in Town, there were kitty houses at Furnado that were largely enjoyed by everyone but the cats. It was date night at the Murderhome, while Octavia was behind the bar at the Devil's Nest.

No one cared about Tino's weekend at Caritas, which is as it should be, being far too concerned with singing on the Stage. So much singing. Some of it was probably even in tune. Things were also hopping at the bar with everyone getting their mingling and drinking on, though Kamala was only interested in drinks of the non-alcoholic kind, Jesse was in her usual chair with her usual generic beer, Margo wanted to rob a bank because Tino threw a better party than her, which is just sad, Eleanor was nervous, though whether that was over the singing or the awkward teen hand holding is anyone's guess. Harley approved of the shots, the cocktails, and Summer's taste in interior decorating, so I'm sure that'll end well, Leroy has written some unprintable things about Stark's flirting, Arden decided to deal with her week with strong drink, which probably explains some of the the singing, Remy got a crash course in all the ways this island will fuck with you, Lydia was incredibly out of place, but still not as awkward as Cal.

*clattering marble sounds*

Leroy, I'm going to close my eyes and count to ten, silently, that better be gone by the time I open my eyes.

*...*

Better.

Let's see, in School news, the books were all over the place at the Library, which I thought was what the library was for, but apparently that''s wrong. While in Shenanigans, after the usually mingling and volunteering, which some people were more enthusiasic about than others, Kamala, we played hockey.

*chittering*

We. Played. Hockey. Four side hockey. It's a thing. Anything else you might have heard are scandalous lies.

Another quiet dsay in the Dorms, while in Town, Promtpo was cleaming the fishtanks at Furnado, which I understand was a bohemoth of a job, while Irene had a busy day at Dite's arranging all her beauty treatments. It was also a quiet night at Caritas, poossibly because Tino kept assuming people cared about his life. Summer took to the stage before ending the night getting all flirty with Stark at the bar.

*chittering*

I should do a bit?

*more chittering*

Because everyone has a bit. I already have a bit, Leroy, it's called threatening you until I get my notes.

*outraged chittering*

Oh, no, I like my bit.

*paper shuffling*

Let's see, up at the School, Arden killed time on her Library shift until her shenanigans based detention, she did however get Kamala bringing her a squishie, and Don looking up cocktail books. If you were trying to figure out where Summer gets them from, it's not there, Don.

Then came a very bug forward Shenanigans, as Anakin celebrated something as annoying as he is. The audience settled in, but was mostly focused on Graham, while volunteers got into their 'surprisingly not terrible' shirts. Then they took part in a quote-unquote race, which did involve some actual racing. Tied up. Barefoot. Then came the climbing a tree. In costume. Screaming. My notes don't specify if that part was by choice or not. The bug pizza was practically normal by comparison. Finally, there was a drinking game involving 'cidcada-infused Malört'. Personally, I blame Tino, and you should too.

I assume by the sad porg there's still not Dorms news, so onto Town, where Kamala spent the morning running through the streets. I assume because she hates herself. She took a break to talk travel with Watts, got lapped by Steve, several times, and showed off her powers for Remy.

Furnado was a buzz with costumed hamsters, which apparently Watts found pretty fishy. Elsewhere Steph plastered the streets with signs for Pride later in the month.

It was date night in the murderhome, while over at Outback Steakhouse Arden and Cal wondered why Anakin does those Anakin things. Because he can.

It was a quiet night at Caritas, so Summer and Tino dicussed the heroism of the Waffle House, at least while Summer wasn't texting. Rey was somewhat suspicous of how quiet it was, as was Stark who was in the weeds of birthday planning. Lastly, Graham came by and asked about finding stock of...no. No, Graham. Graham, no. Bad.
