Good morning, it’s Wednesday again and I’m here again to tell you about yesterday while it’s today so someone else can tell you about today tomorrow.

At the school classes began with Ghanima taking the students in Reclaiming Your Childhood to the cafeteria to bake cookies. Then Anakin and Ahsoka forced Diplomacy students to work a customer service desk and…I think one of the squirrels may have just fainted? Oh, he’s faking. That was very convincing. Well done. And then in Dealing With Other People’s Trauma we discussed how holidays and families could be difficult.

Nothing from the dorms but that’s no surprise. And in the town Kitty crushed Tino’s dreams at Caritas. Doesn’t that happen often? And Lucifer was making purple drinks at The Devil’s Nest including one fancy floral one for Octavia.

That’s all from yesterday.

Another Wednesday and more notes for me to read. As always. We’ll start with the school where classes are ending.

(Even More) American National Park Tours with Sam Eagle did not tour any parks at all today but instead had a test and watched TV? All right. Paintball! did not go well for me, again, but it went well for Cal. Again.

*chittering*

Quiet.

And then there was Beach! where there was a beach party which may have been a crime or may have been many crimes since we learned last week that nearly everything is a beach crime.

Nothing from the dorms again. Sorry, porg. Perhaps tomorrow. Or today, for tomorrow? So now we have the town.

Marc was at Jeff, God of Biscuits, looking for treats for people. I offered some…advice, I suppose, on that. And Harley came in looking for sweets and found Marc instead and they talked. I hope it helped.

Ignis was at the diner, as usual. Because that’s what he does on Tuesdays. And he left after Liliana arrived because that is what they do on Tuesdays.

*chittering*

I suppose sometimes they stay there, yes, but they leave eventually.

At Atlas Gym, Gladio was…detangling gremlins? I…that seems unwise. How did they get wrapped up in so much ribbon anyway?

Tino was offering movie ideas to Kitty at Caritas. I have to agree with Kitty. Tino’s ideas are not good ones.

That seems to be all from yesterday for today.

Another Wednesday another day I am beset by squirrels to read their notes to everyone for reasons I still don’t entirely understand years later. Why are the squirrels here like this?

*chittering*

Maybe I am a little tired. I stayed up to watch the meteor shower. It was beautiful. They always are.

Now. Beginning with the school there was a trip to Montana and definitely not Alaska in (Even More) American National Park Tours with Sam Eagle. Then, at the beach, Beach! class learned that…you can’t do much of anything legally at the beach. Flint and Isabela discussed piracy and ships after learning all of those new rules which are all very odd. But I don’t think anyone here cares. And then we had Paintball! with extra trees and towers and it was terrible but Steve might disagree.

Nothing from the dorms but the porg…seems to have fallen asleep. All right. I hope he isn’t ill. So now we have the notes from the town.

Pick Your Poison was open, with Pam watering plants and checking inventory before Harley arrived and they began planning for lunch.

At Caritas Kitty very bravely faced Tino being loud and the zombies experimenting with “hair metal” even though she had a headache. I’m sorry, Kitty.

Gray and Raiden were at the beach swordfighting while shirtless. I wonder if that’s allowed with all the rules that the beach class learned about.

*chittering*

I’m not sure that them being shirtless with their wings out truly makes it a “public service” but that is an interesting argument. You might be able to make that case to the troopers it would certainly be worth trying.

Good morning it’s Wednesday and I’m here and the squirrels are still draped in beads. All right.

There were no beads in the school yesterday that I saw but there were classes. Focus on Photographers looked at photos from an exhibition in Barbados. Where we were last week and it was wonderful…
Mad Kings & Queens learned about Isabel of Portugal who was locked away for being depressed and…having mood swings? That’s terrible.
And in Friendship is Magic we were discussing gift giving and what to do to get rid of bad gifts.

We have nothing from the dorms but the porg seems happy enough with his beads for now so we’ll go to the town quickly before he gets upset about the usual lack of notes.

Remy was selling mirrors at Needful Things because there were a startling amount of them on the wall for some reason. Nell was looking through plant catalogs at Plant Parenthood and planning for the spring. And Charlie, at Groovy Tunes, was listening to music from movies made from books for small children.

And in the evening Kitty was at Caritas where Tino was oddly not odd and she advertised an event next week where you can make up your own drink named after yourself. Mine glows.

That’s all I have for today from yesterday.

It’s Wednesday morning and I’ve been awakened by squirrels even though I am on a beautiful warm island far away from where these squirrels ought to be. Hopefully I can be done with this quickly and go back to enjoying myself.

Nothing from the school or the dorms because we’re all here and not there. I do have a bit from the town. Pam woke up with Harley but not the Harley I know because there are two of them of the island right now. That Harley offered her a place to come home to. But the other Harley, the one who lives on the island, was having breakfast at home with her hyena when the other Harley, the one who doesn’t live on the island, came to talk to her and…then they fought with baseball bats? I hope everyone’s all right…

Now, the notes the squirrels have given me from yesterday here on this island for the trip. Yelena was at the spa at the hotel getting multiple manicures, while Clint and Kitty had massages together and Clint promised her more massages at home. Surreal was also enjoying the spa. Anakin spent some time in the adults-only pool and Steve was being careful at the gym. Of the equipment. Not of himself.

On the beach, Prompto and Noctra built sandcastles together which Liz judged for them. Earlier in the morning, Arden and Cal took a sunrise walk along the beach. And Eleanor was on a paddleboard.

Several people went to Animal Flower Cave including Gladio, Rey, and Graham. It sounds lovely there. Maybe I’ll go another time. Mount Gay Distillery was visited by Dean, Summer, myself, and Flint. And Liliana and Ignis went on a food tour and then to a cooking class together.

Things were quieter in the evening. Illyana went out and listened to music several places and Sabine had a sunset dinner at La Cabane.

That’s all I have from yesterday. Don’t forget Summer’s party tonight in our room if you’re here on this island and not home on the other island.

Good morning, Fandom, it’s Wednesday and I’m here to tell you about Tuesday because that’s what I do on Wednesday mornings.

Beginning with the school as always. In Focus on Photographers we learned about Annie Liebovitz. Mad Kings and Queens learned about a king from France named Charles, there are a lot of them named Charles. But more named Louis, apparently. And in Friendship is Magic! Anakin and Ahsoka had us practice making new friends on a trip in a hotel room. Not like that!

I have nothing from the dorms, poor porg, and only a few from the town. Kitty was at Caritas trying to ignore Tino which is always a good choice.

And at Needful Things Remy was in a good mood but it was a suspiciously calm day there, according to the squirrels.

And that’s everything I have from yesterday. Next week we’ll be away but I’m sure the squirrels will follow me there. They always do.
stykera: (smirk)
[personal profile] stykera
*chittering*

Of course I would rather be somewhere else right now! That is true every week. Not just this week. These weeks?

Give me the notes. I want to go back to…

*suggestive chittering*

Shut up.

The school had classes in spite of everything and everyone. I went to mine! In Focus on Photographers Prompto had us watch a documentary. *chittering* What? No. I watched the movie. Of course I did. In Friendship is Magic! we talked about friends who aren’t nearby. And writing to them. And…yes. Right. Ghanima, who was apparently ‘eerily unbothered’ by the week had students in Mad Kings & Queen watch a movie about a large cat in the cold? I don’t understand. That’s fine. I don’t need to.

I have no notes from the dorms and…where is the porg? No. I don’t want to know. It’s better not to know. I don’t want to know what any of you are doing this week. Especially you, Leroy. As long as it’s far away from me. And Summer.

Right. Now the town. Kitty tried to ignore Tino and his drink specials at Caritas. It’s always best to ignore him. Especially these weeks. Yelena was informed about the pollen and she and Kitty had a conversation about poles. And Clint. And…Yes. That’s enough.

Rey went for a run this morning. Exercise is good. But it’s cold and you hate the cold.

Charlie stayed warm at Groovy Tunes

*chittering*

Not like that! She just had a nice day at work, it seems. Listening to music.

And that’s all I have about yesterday so now I am leaving and I am going back to bed, I hope. Enjoy your Wednesday, everyone.
stykera: (goofy face)
[personal profile] stykera
Wednesday mornings mean I’m here, almost always. And I’m here today and it is Wednesday so I’ll tell you what the squirrels want shared about yesterday, starting with the school.

We learned about a new photographer, Ruth Orkin, in Focus on Photographers. In Friendship is Magic! we made friendship bracelets which are not magic, as far as I know. I made a few.

I have nothing from the dorms and the porg is sad but the porg is often sad. Perhaps the porg needs a, a hobby?

In the town it seems it is almost time for 3 Minute Dates at Caritas so Kitty was decorating and Tino was likely plotting how to drag unfortunate souls into participating against their will. Gladio had new stickers at the gym, Cup Noodle™ stickers, and he gave one of those to Nell of course.

Ignis found a betting pool happening about how long he’d stay and there was a cake being hidden from him but all of that was much less interesting than Liliana’s arrival and their departure shortly after that.

Charlie spent a lot of time on calls with her bandmates planning for the weekend while at Groovy Tunes. Remy, meanwhile, was being watched and perhaps stalked by toy robots at Needful Things. I hope that went all right. I’m sure the squirrels would have noted if the toys had attacked. Nell had soup while at Plant Parenthood and as far as I know the soup also did not attack.

And finally…oh no. Danny and Steve went in search of a groundhog gone rogue. We all know how that usually ends, and we don’t have firefighters anymore…

That’s all I have for today from yesterday. Until next Wednesday.

Good morning, it’s Wednesday so I’m here to tell you about Tuesday because the squirrels have more power on this island than is advisable.

At the school in Focus on Photographers we discussed favorite photographers including Noctra. In Friendship is Magic! there was paintball! Shooting Anakin is one of my favorite activities. Mad Kings & Queens: Raving Royals and How to Survive Them learned of another possibly (probably?) mad king, this one named Mustafa from Turkey.

I have nothing from the dorms, alas, but the porg has been given a note from the town to give to me about the boarding house where Marc was checking on the house and Harley came to do laundry. Laundry which inspired glitter which I do not believe Marc would approve of.

At the clinic Will found that Stabby had once again ‘noped out’ and the nurses were being as cozy as possible while still ready to work.

Gladio passed out stickers to everyone at the gym, including Stewart and Summer, but not Nell who got texts instead of stickers. Perhaps he brought stickers home with him for her?

There were specials involving blueberry pancakes at the diner and other things as well, made by Ignis.

*chittering*

Yes I’m sure they were all delicious. His food always is.

Liliana came by for lunch, of course, and was pleased to be proclaimed Ignis’s muse.

And in the evening Kitty opened Caritas slightly late, perhaps due to cookies as the squirrels mentioned she smelled like cookies. I’m sorry they were close enough to sniff you, Kitty.

That’s all they wrote for me to read about yesterday today. I doubt I’ll escape this next week so I will probably be reading more notes next Wednesday.
stykera: (cold)
[personal profile] stykera
Good morning, it’s Wednesday again and it’s cold again and Leroy I do not care what you think of my coat. It’s warm and I like it.

Let’s be quick about this so I can go back home. Maybe back to bed.

From the school we have Focus on Photographers was canceled for Prompto not feeling well but given an assignment to research a photographer. Mad Kings & Queens: Raving Royals and How To Survive Them learned about ‘Mad King George’ of England. And in Friendship is Magic! Anakin and Ahsoka had us watch a movie about magic pants that fit everyone with someone who looks like Anakin’s wife.

I have nothing from the dorms, sorry Porg. Better luck tomorrow? Or today, I suppose. Both.

In the town we do have notes because we always have notes there.

At The Devil’s Nest Lucifer was thinking of installing an ice luge. I hope for drinks and not for Tiny. Caritas had a cotton candy machine for unknown reasons so Kitty made pink drinks with it for me and Yelena who decided to rename Kitty Caterpillar? She does that. That’s why sometimes I’m James now even though I’m not, really.

Dean was at The Infinite Consortium and found the armor and the chair that wants to eat him cuddling with empty Oreo packs. Nell had a pleasant day with her flowers at Plant Parenthood, much more than yesterday with the other flowers.

Remy, who I think must actually work at Needful Things by now because otherwise why would he be there so regularly, enjoyed some silence and then some old music on a very old music player. There was also music for (and performed by) Charlie at Groovy Tunes.

That's all from yesterday for this morning. I'm going back somewhere warmer with blankets for now.
stykera: (exhausted)
[personal profile] stykera
*chittering*

The only regrets are about being awake now to do this, with you, Leroy. Quiet.

Anyway, yes, it was my birthday yesterday or at least the day we’ve chosen to be my birthday here since I don’t when mine truly would be. But that has nothing to do with anything else from yesterday including the notes from the school.

Photography learned about an artist named Ansel Adams. Mad Kings and Queens learned about an emperor of Rome who may have been insane, named Caligula. And in Friendship is Magic! there was something like 3 minute dates. Anakin was strangely popular, talking to Graham, Charlie, myself, and Jon.Ahsoka talked with Charlie, Belle spoke with Jon about classes. Graham and Charlie discussed adventuring. I said hello to Rey, and Vi was questioned by Charlie.

I have no notes from the dorms, sorry Porg, but perhaps you can come to the bar later for some jello? And we do have notes from the town.
At the clinic Will discovered that Stabby had acquired new weaponry. Oh dear.

Ignis was briefly tormented by microwave beeping while working at the diner but then convinced to run off with Liliana.

Gladio put up a number of signs at the gym, including ones specifically for Nell that were, apparently, adorable. And they earned glitter on the note as well. And Stewart was at the gym as well and I’m a little concerned that the squirrels seem so concerned with the tightness of his pants.

Remy was hungover at Needful Things.

*chittering*

No, I’m not. I just want to go back to bed, Leroy, away from you. Right. He was hungover and there were very noisy clocks and he and Harley smashed several of them. Charlie worked on music at Groovy Tunes.

And at Caritas Kitty had specials of drinks and this is related to a song somehow but I don’t know anything about it.

That seems to be all. I’ll be at the bar tonight, as always on Wednesdays. Perhaps I’ll see some of you there.
stykera: (cold)
[personal profile] stykera
Good morning, it’s Wednesday again and I’m here, again.

I have notes from the school because classes have begun again this week. New classes. Focus on Photographers is Prompto’s latest photography class. Today we were shown photographs that won a competition about nature photography. Ghanima is teaching Mad Kings & Queens: Raving Royals and How to Survive Them and, fittingly, discussed several rulers on this planet who have been considered mad. And then we have Anakin and Ahsoka’s latest class which is not about Daring Escapes but rather Friendship is Magic.

*chittering*

Ah. My mistake. I apologize. It’s Friendship is Magic! And we talked of our best friends.

No notes from the dorms today but I do have a few from the town. Not nearly so many as last week when there was a party. Charlie had her phone delivered to her at Groovy Tunes after she threw that same phone into the pond. Nell received a very unexpected delivery of bobbleheads from some of the local wildlife. Remy, at Needful Things, did not receive any deliveries but he did spend time looking at things already in the store including, according to this note ‘a really cool knife.’ Right.

That seems to be all of yesterday’s news for this morning. I’m sure I’ll be back again next week. And the week after. Hopefully it will be warmer then.
stykera: (yikes)
[personal profile] stykera
*chittering*
Yes, I know it’s a new year and I know I’m late but I was tired and…I don’t need to explain myself to you, Leroy. There are plenty of other people who live here you could be bothering right now.

So. We have nothing from the school because classes have not begun yet and we have nothing from the dorms because we rarely do but there is plenty from the town due to last night’s party at Caritas.

So many party notes )

That’s all from the party.

But there is one final note about Will discovering even more birds at the clinic for Stabby. Swans, this time.

I hope everyone is starting their year off well. Perhaps I’ll see some of you later tonight.
stykera: (hair)
[personal profile] stykera
Wednesday again and I’m here again. I wonder if I’ll have to keep doing this once it’s next year soon.

I hope everyone got to enjoy the lights yesterday. They were very nice at night.

*chittering*

Yes, even on the raccoons. Today there’s the log on every screen it seems. I can’t see anything else on my phone and there’s a screen in here that I’m certain normally has something useful on it. At least the notes are written out or this would be impossible.

At the school there was an Alot of Holiday Annoyances in Ethics and I think it just wanted someone to talk to. World Mythology learned about Greek myths and a father who cooked his own child to feed the gods and…it only got odder from there. All right.Raiden brought Food and Cultural Appreciation to Delhi, India, where we can only hope no children were fed to gods or anyone else and everyone ate only wonderful things.

I have nothing from the dorms, but the Porg is watching the burning log on my phone so we’ll talk about the notes from the town.

The clinic was decorated with crab lights and Will decided to just accept that. Most things about Stabby are best just accepted.

Prompto was working on photos he took already, including adorable animal ones for Christmas, at The Photo Hut. Luke’s Diner had an excess of waffle irons and Ignis made many sorts of waffles and Gray was very excited by this development. Gladio found gremlins using fruitcakes as weights at the gym, and I found that a bit odd when I said hello to Gladio. Nell was delighted by the lights on the rickshaws and suggested a ride later when it was dark.

Dean was taking the chair that wants to eat him out for a walk in the park and arguing with it. I don’t know why. Thor seemed to think it was very entertaining to watch. It probably was. Sorry, Dean.

At Caritas, Kitty was decorating for the holidays and preparing for the New Year’s Eve party. Good. I’m glad there will be one.

Nell was in a very good mood at Plant Parenthood, perhaps the same good mood that she had at the gym about the lights. Charlie was listening to Christmas music and playing along with it at Groovy Tunes.

Duke was doing yoga on the deck of his boat in the morning. Wasn’t it cold for that?

And finally we had Remy at Needful Things, where he may be employed, selling something called chatelaines but I have no idea what those are and doing some ‘arts and crafts.’

That’s all from yesterday for today. Try to enjoy your Wednesday, Fandom. Perhaps I’ll see some of you later.

I don’t care if it’s made of sugar I’m not licking that ball!

*chittering*

Oh, shut up Leroy.

Good morning, it’s Wednesday, I’m here again. The island is full of little balls making cute noises and the squirrels tell me they’re made of sugar but I’m not going to confirm that for myself.

We’ll start with the school notes. There was an argument over sharing showers in Ethics. Anakin seems to think others should share their showers with him and he should share his moods with others. And in Food and Cultural Appropriation Raiden took his students to Vietnam since he wasn’t a dog anymore. Welcome back to yourself, Raiden. His brother is still a sloth though.

The porg is distracted by the sugar balls which is good because I have no notes from the dorms and now it’s time to discuss the town. Prompto was looking at a book of cowboy photos when his family came for their usual lunch visit. Also stopping by for a lunch visit at Luke’s Diner was Liliana who wanted to discuss Christmas trees with Ignis.

There was already a tree at the gym with presents underneath but there was a ‘no lift no gift’ rule. Summer and I both decided to lift weights to get presents and find out if they were all full of Cup Noodle™.

Dean was sticky from the water being cocoa and not water but he did have wine to drink while at work. Kitty had a similar problem at Caritas and Tino smelled of wine and cologne and that sounds very unpleasant and explains why the special last night was NOT WINE.

Nell was in a good mood at Plant Parenthood and Charlie was amusing herself with a group chat with her family.

Percy, who was new last week, found himself at the Forge which is for sale. Or was for sale? And talked about changing the name of the forge.
Finally, Remy was at Needful Things displaying something called a Violet Ray machine and various…attachments.

Right. Well. That’s all I have written down for me about yesterday. Enjoy your Wednesdays, everyone.
stykera: (looking away)
[personal profile] stykera
Good morning and welcome to Wednesday, again. I hope you all had a good holiday last week and are enjoying the island’s oddities so far this month. The potato pancakes this morning are delicious and I want to look for more so I’ll try to get through the notes quickly.

At the school, Ethics discussed violence and whether it is ethical to use it. Or not use it. World Mythology learned about Hawaiian mythology and watched a movie. Oh, I didn’t know there was another movie about the little blue alien…
And then Food and Cultural Appreciation went to Frankfurt to visit a Christmas market. That sounds nice.

I have nothing from the dorms but the porg is content with his latke for the moment so we’ll move on to the town where we have someone new who arrived unexpectedly and wetly. Usually people only drop into the pond if they fight inside Caritas. The new man met Liliana and they exchanged all manner of proper pleasantries and she even lent him something warm and dry and offered to try and help him and explained where he was. Welcome to Fandom…that’s a very long name. ‘ Percival Fredrickstein von Musel Klossowski de Rolo III, of the royal house of Whitestone.’ Percival also met Clint and his dogs who got pets which is very important, the dogs got pets. Not Clint. That would be odd. Clint just explained a little about where we are. And then he met Don who also explained a bit about the island and identified the flamingos.

Prompto was at the Photo Hut where there was sadly no fireplace. I wish my fireplace were still here. It’s so nice having one.

Gladio found that many things at the gym had been giftwrapped and he and I compared Thanksgivings. And Summer had a new outfit, of course.

Ignis had a lot of lemons but no lemonade at the diner and then he had the usual visit from Liliana and they discussed…plans and pie.

Dean was at the Infinite Consortium where the armor and the chair were cuddling by the fireplace that appeared. Right. And Jane came to visit, offered to cuddle the chair, and turned into a cat. Oh. I’m sorry, Jane.

There was also a fireplace at The Devil’s Nest which Lucifer enjoyed with some cocoa but Eric was not fond of since he’s flammable.

Steph and Vi were also enjoying their temporary fireplace while watching a movie. Well. There was a movie playing and at least and we don’t really need to share more details than that, do we?

That seems to be all. I’m off to find more latkes and hope none of them end up in any jello this evening.
stykera: (look at this)
[personal profile] stykera
Good morning, it’s Wednesday again and Tuesday was quiet so I’m here to read just a few notes and then leave.

At the school, Raiden canceled his Food and Cultural Appreciation Class so he could bake pies and in Ethics we had to navigate possible Thanksgiving issues. Like terrible relatives and terrible food.

I have nothing from the dorms but I brought the porg a cookie and that seems to be helping matters.

In the town, Dean looked up recipes while at the Infinite Consortium and found out that butter is somehow a secret? I don’t know either. Remy was at Needful Things and I’m still not sure if he actually works there or not, and he was sorting through some items his younger self had…procured…over the weekend.

Finally, at Caritas Tino was pouting about having to do work and Kitty had to deal with that, I’m sorry Kitty, and Steve came in after not being there for a while and he and Kitty talked about Skrulls and I don’t know what those are.

That’s all from yesterday for today. Happy Wednesday, Fandom. Enjoy your feasts tomorrow if you have them.
stykera: (exhausted)
[personal profile] stykera
It’s Wednesday again even though it seems like Monday and Tuesday went by very fast for some reason. But I’m here, as always, or almost always, to tell everyone about what happened yesterday that the squirrels found interesting enough to write down.

At the school Anakin stole a cookie in Ethics and I decided the best revenge would be making him eat something terrible. It may happen later. We shall see. World Mythology learned about the end of the world, or at least the end of a world. Raiden took his Food & Cultural Appreciation students to Tokyo. Oh. They do have very good food there.

Nothing from the dorms, sorry Porg, so we’ll go right to the town. Dean took many phones with him to the Perk instead of to work and was joined by Watts and they discussed not being arrested? All right.

Gladio found an invasion of turkeys training for a trot at the gym. Summer had a new outfit for weight training, I asked about the turkey training, and Steve came in to tell Gladio about how he is training for a triathlon. Which is not the same as a turkey trot.

There was nothing out of the ordinary for Lucifer to deal with at the Devil’s Nest. Not even from Tiny. That’s unusual by itself.

Will found that Stabby was extra crabby and extra stabby at the clinic. Hopefully no one was hurt.

Charlie was saved from a phone call by bagpipes on the stereo and Nell had a very pleasant day catching up on things at Plant Parenthood.

That’s all I have for today’s notes about yesterday. Perhaps I’ll see some of you later. Enjoy your Wednesday either way.
stykera: (in profile)
[personal profile] stykera
I never had to know what day it was before I was on this island. And now I always know and so I know today is Wednesday and it’s time to talk about the news of Tuesday.

We’ll start with the school because that’s how we always start. In Ethics we were in inflatable ball suit things for crashing into each other.

*chittering*

No, I did not crash into Anakin. I should have. You’re right. World Mythology learned about myths from Australia. Where I am not from even if I sound like it. And Food & Cultural Appropriation went to Paris for food. And culture. I’d like to go back there again. Sometime.

The porg is sighing the saddest sighs so we’ll skip the dorms and move on to the town.

The boarding house has notes and that’s a bit like a dorm except it isn’t really so we’ll start there. Watts was making pie for Steven. Oh, with Steven. That’s nice. Elsewhere in the boarding house, Arden had barbecue waiting for Remy so the two of them could practice fighting…pretend zombies? That’s useful here. Just leave the ones at Caritas alone or you’ll end up in the pond and it’s very unpleasant in the pond.

Speaking of Caritas, Kitty found that Tino was serving Jaegermeister. At least it wasn’t Malort? Yelena came in now that she isn’t a cat anymore, welcome back to yourself Yelena, and talked about things the island does to us with Kitty. It does so many things, Yelena.

Gladio had a picture of something green at the gym that his staff were meant to guess what it was and Summer had a new outfit.

Ignis found himself unable to make anything except soup and then received his regular visit from Liliana who was very pleased to see him.

Prompto got a visit from someone who had not broken a camera, for once.

Liliana also visited Dean at her shop after he hung the chair from the ceiling. He apologized to her for something at the Halloween party that happened before he was a dog and she agreed to go to a sports, football? Football game with him.

Nell dealt with singing raccoons and a sign for someone’s birthday and…a bathing suit at Plant Parenthood? All right.

Don was at the bakery having two cupcakes which sounds like a very good afternoon to me.

And the last thing I have to read is that Steve was making a very healthy dinner for himself and Danny that Danny was not pleased with.

That’s all I have from yesterday for today.
stykera: (worried)
[personal profile] stykera
*chittering*

Yes, I’m here. Why wouldn’t I be? It’s Wednesday and I’m here Wednesdays so let’s read what you’ve written about yesterday.

It seems to have been a somewhat quiet day. At the school we had a comfy movie day with a very good movie in Ethics and Raiden took his students on a taco tour in Mexico City. I should add that to the hat.

There is only the usual lack of notes from the dorms and the porg seems even more upset about that than usual so we’ll move on to the town.

At the clinic Will found that Stabby was reading a book in his new armchair. Stabby’s chair. Not Will’s.

Prompto was distracted by very old cat footprints in clay and then by his family’s usual visit. Ignis dealt with an abundance of pumpkins, that does tend to happen at this time of year, and had his usual visit from Liliana.

Gladio found Pumpkin Spice Cup Noodle ™ in the claw machine and a lot of pillows and blankets in the classroom. The island has been very cozy. I like it. More pillows and blankets for everyone. Maybe some more of the weighted blankets? I like those best. And…yes. Summer and I were both at the gym but her outfit was better than mine. Quiet, Leroy.

I continue to not know for certain if Remy works at Needful Things but he was there yesterday with a sale on fancy dishes. No pillows though. But there were plenty of pillows and mattresses at the Devil’s Nest that Lucifer wondered about. And Kitty found that Tino also had a pillow fort at Caritas. I wonder if it’s still there?

That seems to be all of yesterday for today. Perhaps I’ll see some of you later in a pillow fort or at a bar. Or both at the same time.
stykera: (waiting for the worst)
[personal profile] stykera
Good morning to everyone except Leroy. He knows what he did. It’s Wednesday again and so I’m here again to tell you about what the squirrels wrote about yesterday.

The school to begin with since we’re back to a normal week here and no longer on vacation. Ethics discussed ‘the trolley problem.’ And World Mythology watched a movie called The Siblings Morbid to look for myths that might be in it.

Unfortunately for the porg I have no notes about the dorms-

*chittering*

Fine, yes, there is the one note that says there are no notes so I’ll read the notes from the town now. At the movie theatre Bucky and Ulysses were eating popcorn amongst the decorations. Jesse came in to tease Bucky and perhaps buy candy and Steve came in to talk about watching a game.

*chittering*

No, I don’t know who won I don’t even know what game they were talking about.

Ignis made Canadian-inspired food at the diner before being interrupted by Liliana coming to lure him home with talk of party preparations. There were different party preparations happening at Spirit Halloween where Rey and Summer were looking for costumes and I still don’t know how I feel about ‘sexy popcorn’ and it may be better that way.

Prompto was at The Photo Hut looking at photos from last week’s trip and Liz and Noctra visited him as usual.

Gladio added some new noodles to the claw machine at the gym and a note warning people to stay out of the machine and Summer was there in a very good new outfit. At the gym. Not in the machine.

Dean spent a lot of time talking on the phone and calling himself Tom while at The Infinite Consortium. At least he wasn’t fighting with the chair?

And finally we have notes about the bars. Lucifer was impressed that Tiny was wearing a suit at The Devil’s Nest but offered to help him find a good tailor. Boc does fine work here in town. And at Caritas Tino over decorated and Kitty had to deal with fake spiderwebs all over the bar and everything in it.

That’s all from yesterday for today. I expect to be back here again doing the same thing next week.

The porg is wearing one of those hats with the black and red squares and the flaps. It seems important that everyone be aware of this and now that you are it’s time to bring you the news of yesterday from here in Quebec. Quietly, so we don’t bother Summer.

Nothing from the school because it is a break week. And nothing from the dorms because the students are here. And…nothing from the town, perhaps because so many of us are here. So here are the notes the squirrels have given me from yesterday about things that happened on the trip.

At the hotel in the morning Adrian was knocked out of bed by Yelena who is apparently ‘a blanket-stealing mattress-hogging sleep-kicker.’ Sometimes it’s better to just sleep on the floor, Adrian.

Breakfast involved eggs with salmon and maple syrup crepes with apples. Beta was enjoying them while watching shows and was joined by Henry. Arden had breakfast after sleeping again after radio and then discussed plans for the week with Kamala.
Prompto was eating with Noctra who eats more than a small child could be expected to and Arden checked in with them. She also asked Raiden about breakfast cake and he checked on how she was feeling.

The spa in the hotel was visited by Liliana, of course, and Jon who was there to keep working on what he learned from her workshop. Ignis was there as well, with Liliana making sure he relaxed.

Adrian and Eleanor met when they both went for an early swim in the pool and naturally Gladio was at the gym.

Thee art museum was visited by Watts and Steven of course, and by Eleanor and Kamala and Steve and Tony and Prompto and Liz. Squirrels, why is there glitter in my hotel room? Don’t answer. Please. Lydia was also there and discussed buses and artwork with Kamala. Anakin was there as well.

Arden, Summer, and I all ended up at the Grand Market, Graham went on a bike tour and Yelena ended up in an art market. Steph and Vi went on something called a funicular. Adrian found a very local restaurant while Stewart found a music shop.

Dean went to Pub Nelligans for whiskey and was joined by Anakin who just sort of appeared. He does that, Dean. Lana came when Dean texted her to join him.

In the evening, Yelena and Adrian made apologies to each other with blankets and chocolates. Jon went to Onhwa' Lumina which sounds like it was lovely. And Stewart and I both ended up at MacFly Bar Arcade.

*chittering*

What? No. It was fine. Why wouldn’t it be fine?

And finally Arden and Cal were having a very friendly dinner. Oh. They’ve told each other how much they like each other. Good. That’s very good for them. That explains the glitter. There is so much glitter in this room now.

That’s all I have about yesterday for today. Don’t forget about Summer’s party in our room tonight.

*chittering*

Fine, you can say that it’s Wednesday and I’m here again but now I’ve said it as well and I’m ready to begin with notes from the school. Ethics talked about politics and how to know when you’re doing the right thing. You don’t always know. Sometimes you just have to hope. World Mythology learned about myths from Japan. And then Raiden took his Food and Cultural Appropriation class to Greece where everyone seemed very happy to see Arden and her new scooter?

I have no notes from the dorms so I’ve given the Porg a candy and he seems better so now it’s time for notes from the town.

Ignis was serving fall-inspired breakfasts at Luke’s and Liliana came for lunch and compliments and black glitter on the notes and I hope whatever arm wound they referred to is healing well.

Lucifer played piano in the fog at The Devil’s Nest.

*chittering*

Oh. The fog was from a machine? I thought perhaps it was just a Fandom thing. Kitty was dealing with the bull at Caritas and someone who came to fix it very slowly. And then Yelena came in for Kitty to introduce her to new drinks and Logan came in to ask about the noises from the bull and complain about the smell of the zombies. You’ll get used to it, Logan. Mostly.

Some small green creature was very grumpy at Nell while she was at work at Plant Parenthood. Is Rygel here? I hope Rygel isn’t here…

Charlie was on the phone most of the time she was at Groovy Tunes. And then Dean was at the Infinite Consortium and found a box containing a ‘very scary piggy’? All right.

That seems to be all for today from yesterday. I imagine I’ll have to do this next week from our trip as well but perhaps someone else will. Or perhaps the squirrels won’t be allowed on the trip.

*indignant chittering*

Quiet, I know that wouldn’t stop you. Everyone knows that wouldn’t stop you.

[personal profile] stykera
Good morning, Fandom. Time for another Wednesday morning of me reading notes from squirrels about another Tuesday.

*chittering*

No, I didn’t plan on ‘yowling’ today and Pancakes is with Summer so no she won’t be making terrible noises either. Let me see the notes from the school, please.

Ethics class watched a movie about lying to others and Anakin didn’t say a word before, during, or after the film. World Mythology learned about twins who were raised by wolves and then people and then founded Rome after one killed the other. I’m sure there must be more to their story than that. Food and Cultural Appreciation went to Vermont for apples and cheese and maple syrup and…flour. Maybe I ought to bake something later.

I have a sad porg beside me and nothing from the dorms so now it’s time to read the notes of the town.

At the clinic Will was questioned about his lack of hot doctors and other visitors by the nurses and Stabby had more pictures. Or possibly the same pictures I wasn’t there I couldn’t say.

Charlie had a day of ‘puttering’ and listening to music at Groovy Tunes. Remy played cards by himself at Needful Things.

Nell was cheerful while she worked at Plant Parenthood and Dean was less so while he stared at a vial of something at Liliana’s shop. Gladio discovered that his Cup Noodle ™ claw machine at the gym was nearly empty and sent texts to his sister about it. Kitty was having trouble with the mechanical bull at Caritas when it wouldn’t shut off even after being disconnected. I wonder if it’s still doing that today? I suppose I’ll find out later.

The last note I have says that Duke was on his boat and seemingly much better than he has been. That’s good. Lucifer and Duke discussed lack of sleep and trying to talk. Octavia was leaving for the day and going swimming and Duke mentioned wanting to do that more often and Lucifer offered coffee before she left.

That’s all for today from yesterday. Until next week, I suppose.
stykera: (crouching)
[personal profile] stykera
Good morning, Fandom. It’s Wednesday and I’m here again. As almost always.

*chittering*

Well, if you want to write me something else to say every week I may consider it! Until then, let’s look at what happened at the school yesterday. We learned about ’Deadly Sins’ in Ethics class, World Mythology was canceled due to illness, and Food and Cultural Appropriation went to Marrakesh which I don’t know anything about but like all of Raiden’s trips it sounds like somewhere delicious.

Once again everyone has disappointed the poor porg with a lack of activity in the dorms. Poor thing. So we’ll move on to what happened in the town yesterday.

Will received a sticker from Stabby at the clinic. He did have a very large number of stickers. I wonder if he’ll have something new to share next week.

Dean found that the Infinite Consortium had been cleaned. He left it slightly less clean than he found it. Plant Parenthood didn’t need much cleaning and so Nell had the time to experiment with some of her honey. Perhaps I ought to ask her if she has any to sell. Charlie was listening to music from the city where Raiden’s class went to today while she was at work at Groovy Tunes. And at Needful Things Remy was there. I am still not certain if he actually has a job there or not. But he added a lot of holographic dog art to the shop. Whatever that means.

Kitty found that Caritas was disturbing clean and assumed this was somehow Tino’s fault and that makes sense. Tino is usually at fault. I don’t think he usually cleans though and he definitely isn’t usually helpful. I wonder if he’s been replaced by a robot Tino? Yelena came in for a fun drink and discussed having gremlin issues at her job.

At the the Devil’s Nest Lucifer wanted things to be a different sort of red and had designers there to redecorate. And Duke came in to offer color advice and also gummies.

And finally a ‘Spirit Halloween’ appeared in the woods in what was the Walmart building once. Adrian and his cat did some investigating. I wonder if any other stores are going to appear. Or the Waffle House. I suppose we shall see.

That’s all from yesterday for today. Until next week, I think.

[personal profile] stykera
Wednesday morning is here again and so am I. Good morning, Fandom. I suppose I ought to read the notes from yesterday, starting with the school as usual.

Anakin and Ahsoka talked about difficult conversations in Ethics class. The World Mythology class discussed spiders and a spider god named Anansi. And Raiden took his students to Peru to try new foods including something called cuy that many of them avoided.

I have no notes from the dorms, sorry porg, so I’ll read what the squirrels wrote about the town instead.

Bucky returned to his apartment from somewhere and Jesse brought him lunch.

At the Infinite Consortium Dean was on the phone telling someone to go to a church and a spice store and Jane brought coffee and coffee cake to share with him and he explained that the raccoons got him drunk but they didn’t kidnap him because they only do that to me and then they may have planned a rickshaw race. I hope nothing explodes.

Prompto was at the Photo Hut working on some mysterious project when his wife and daughter came to visit at lunchtime as they usually do on Tuesdays.

Rey was in the park working with her lightsaber and was joined by Anakin who explained how he’d come back here after he stopped being a cat.

Remy was at Needful Things feeling terrible and Harley came downstairs and made a lot of noise. I’m still not certain if he really works for her or not.

Nell had two visitors while she was at work at Plant Parenthood. Pam, who is new, came to meet her and ask about her products and her dirt. And Steven came to harvest honey and they talked of classes and lunches.

Tino was wearing some strange pants at Caritas that Kitty chose not to comment on. That was probably wise. It’s always better not to encourage him.

And finally, Don was at the Perk after spending a lot of time on the phone. I hope the coffee helped with…whatever.

That’s all for this morning about yesterday. I’ll be back again next week, I’m sure.
stykera: (in profile)
[personal profile] stykera
Good morning, it’s Wednesday and so I’m here. As usual. We’ll start right off with notes from the school. In Ethics we were offered the opportunity to commit all manner of crimes that weren’t real but not to discuss putting outfits on cats who may look like Anakin. World Mythology learned of two creation myths from nearby civilizations. And in Food and Cultural Appreciation Raiden took his students to Rome to go on a food tour.

I’m sorry, porg, but we have nothing from the dorms once more so we’ll go right to the town.

Stabby was feeling unwell again, as Will found out at the clinic when he found Stabby stretching. Crabs can stretch?

Nell was offering honey from her bees for sale at Plant Parenthood. Perhaps I ought to get some to bake with…

Remy was at Needful Things and the squirrels are very disappointedly muttering something about glitter even though there was no one at the store with him.

Dean took a chair for a walk in the park. A chair?

*chittering*

Not the one that fights him, I hope? The chair seemed to just be sitting there. In the park. On a leash. We live in a very odd place. Don was curious about the chair and asked if it was a pet or even Dean’s boss. I do not think Liliana turned into a chair.

Gladio found out that the pool at the gym was full of tapioca pudding and we discussed that when I arrived.

Lucifer was at the Devil’s Nest trying to drown out a song with piano songs of his own. I hope it worked for him.

And then late last night Lydia could be found in the preserve collecting something and I do not wish to know why Leroy looks so happy about this.

That seems to be all from yesterday for today. I imagine I will be back again next week to tell you about Tuesday on Wednesday again.
stykera: (look at this)
[personal profile] stykera
Good morning. Wednesday again and I’m here with squirrels and it still feels early today. Is it early? No matter, let’s get on with the notes.

The school had fewer introductions this week. Unsurprisingly. In Ethics we discussed costume-based revenge on people who may currently be cats. That was very entertaining. World Mythology talked of creation myths about Tiamat who may be a dragon. Raiden took his Food and Cultural Appreciation class to Singapore to try food from Chinatown and that sounds like a good place to visit.

The porg is sad, as usual, so no notes from the dorms so we’ll go to the town where Tino did something terrible at Caritas that poor Kitty had to deal with. He made pie. From Malort. Which Dean ate. On purpose. Dean, why would you do that to yourself? Kitty wondered the same thing and gave him drinks to try and get the taste out of his mouth. I hope it worked. Kitty did successfully warn Yelena away from the pie. Good. And then talked about Logan and showed Yelena how she can go through things.

Dean also was at work with packages that moved and phone calls. And Jane brought him apple pie so at least he had some good pie yesterday and not just Tino’s monstrosity and they talked about classes and there’s a lot of glitter on these notes.

And Rey was at The Perk having pumpkin spice and if I’d known I would have gone to say hello. And get coffee. I love the pumpkin spice.

*chittering*

I don’t care if that’s ‘basic’ Leroy it’s delicious.

That seems to be everything. Perhaps I’ll see some of you at the bar tonight. If not at the very least you’ll almost certainly hear me here next Wednesday.
stykera: (Default)
[personal profile] stykera
Good morning, it’s Wednesday though it feels earlier than usual why is it so early?

*chittering*

What do you mean you didn’t want anyone to be late to work? Isn’t this your work? Nevermind. Let’s start with the school since break is over.

Ethics had introductions as is traditional and we all had to tell two truths and a lie about ourselves. And there were some interesting facts shared. Even the truths. Maybe especially the truths. World Mythology discussed their favorite myths and what myths are. And the last class of the day was Food and Cultural Appreciation went to eat in New Orleans after introductions. I’m hungry now. Maybe I should have signed up for Raiden’s class. They even get to stay longer than just an hour, as Arden found out at the end of class.

Unfortunately for the porg I have no notes from the dorms. There’s still time left in the week. Notes could happen.

So now we have the town where at the clinic Will found that Stabby and the nurses were working on his dating profile? Stabby’s. Not Will’s.

Ignis was…inspired…by a message from Liliana who then came to eat what she’d inspired and discuss Halloween plans.

Gladio was at the gym where the sound system was new and working and a suggestion box for songs was put up. Nell came in for her workout and to see Gladio, of course.

Prompto was at The Photo Hut decorating for fall and got a visit from his wife and daughter who seemed to approve of the decorations.

Dean was at the Infinite Consortium having trouble with a ‘very scary doll again.’ All right. And Arden came in to explain Venmo and to call Dean old without actually saying he was old. I don’t think he’s old. And perhaps she might work for him as an assistant.

Nell was at Plant Parenthood as usual on Tuesdays but she forgot to take down her sign about leaving for a few minutes after she returned. Meanwhile, Charlie was napping at Groovy Tunes.

It was quiet at Caritas because Tino was not there. That sounds nice for Kitty. And then Yelena came in looking for Jello shots, you should come tonight Yelena Wednesdays are for Jello. She also asked Kitty to help her build furniture. Logan was also recruited to build furniture with Yelena and she bought him a drink. Logan had also come to talk to Kitty and she invited him over for dinner at her place, to meet Clint and Lexi.

The final note for today about yesterday was that Connor and Cutter returned to Fandom, welcome back, with Rex, and were planning out what to do this semester but also this week.

That’s all the notes I have about Tuesday. Enjoy your Wednesday, Fandom, perhaps I’ll see some of you later.
stykera: (mask)
[personal profile] stykera
Today it is Wednesday and I’m back. Again. To tell you about yesterday like yesterday I told you about Monday. Nothing from the school or the dorms again because it’s still break week just like it was yesterday.

So, like yesterday, we’ll move right to notes from the town. Today it was Ignis getting a visit from Liliana at work though it was much the same as his visit to her yesterday and we really don’t need to go into more detail than that.

Gladio dealt with a malfunctioning sound system at the gym by…making sure it didn’t function at all and then he and I came in like usual and we talked of stars and hot tubs.

There was a new arrival in town named Logan who met up with Kamala who did not recognize him but tried to inform him of some of the island’s oddities. There are so many. Remy and Don both did recognize Logan but thought he was taller than usual? Logan recognized Remy, sort of, but not Don, and he and Kitty definitely recognized each other but Kitty seemed happier about that than he did. Welcome to the island, Logan, it’s a strange place but it's a good one.

Remy was at Needful Things and I’m still not certain if he works there or not but he put bugs on sale so he thinks he works there, at least.

The Skywalkers, not Anakin, had dinner at Il Pollo and discussed food, which makes sense, and shark babies, which…doesn’t, but maybe it does here.

*chittering*

No I don’t think Sidon has come back.

And finally Kitty had to deal with Tino being himself with champagne at Caritas and Remy came in to talk about a new wolverine. Is Logan an animal then?

That seems to be everything from yesterday for today. No need to hide from Anakin today, everyone, so enjoy your Wednesday!
stykera: (hmm)
[personal profile] stykera
It’s Tuesday and not Wednesday and yet I’m here for unknown squirrel reasons.

*chittering*

No, I will not say anything about ‘ya boy.’ I will give you all the notes from Monday though. None from the school because this is a break week before the new term starts. And none from the dorms or the porg would be happier. So that just leaves the town.

Liliana found another ‘creepy clockwork doll’ at her shop which she was planning on giving to Dean and then Ignis came to visit and I’m not saying any more about that, thank you.

Summer was at her store with specials on toilet paper, and did not have any visitors.

*chittering*

I was at the clinic where Stabby was still sparkly and Navaan came to say goodbye. To the crab.

Ulysses was at the movie theatre and there was a movie playing about storms. I haven’t been to the movie theatre in a long time. Vi was at the Magpie Emporium where the robot was trying to make the gremlins behave. Kamala was at Stark, that’s Tony-not-me, Industries trying to fix something but it seems it was very broken. Perhaps ask Rey? She’s good at these things.

Raiden made pizza out of sandwiches? That doesn’t make sense but all right. Summer finds stranger foods than that all the time.

And then we have Nell enjoying the new hot tub with Gladio and we really don’t need to know any more than that, do we? Jane was at home trying to understand how she ended up teaching a class about gods and trying to explain the moose to Don. There’s no explaining the moose or what the moose does.

And finally, we have Navaan and John and Beaker all leaving together. I hope wherever they’ve gone is prepared for…that.

That's all from Monday today. I wonder if I'll be back again tomorrow to tell you about things that happened today. It seems likely.
stykera: (sincere)
[personal profile] stykera
Yes obviously I’m here this week. It’s hardly my fault you decided to harass poor Arden two days in a row last week now is it?

It’s nearly the end of summer but we still have classes this week. So we have notes from the school. Anakin and Ahsoka were “definitely not showing off with lightsabers” during their self-defense class. Raiden took his pizza class to Sweden. Summer had us making our own monstrosities in her party planning class. In Philosophy talked of truth and knowing and someone called Democritus. Earth Tourism took a ship to look at the whole ship at once. And then in Grow Your Own Garden harvested some vegetables.

I’ve nothing from the dorms today, sorry Porg, so we’ll move on to the town.

Stabby was still glittery at the clinic and everyone except Will was very tired for some reason.
Speaking of glitter there’s rather a lot of it here. So much. Harley was sleepy much like everyone at the clinic and texted Marc to come over.

Sabine was in her warehouse to meet with Ahsoka. And finally Nell was at Plant Parenthood and there were no potatoes to be found. That’s good. I think.

That seems to be all. Be careful of the park today. It’s Wednesday. You never know what Anakin might do to end the summer.
stykera: (look at this)
[personal profile] stykera
It’s Monday and Anakin is meant to be here and not me but for some reason I’m here to tell you about Sunday.

Leroy, is this because of the talk of gloves yesterday? Or did Anakin put you up to it? Nevermind. It doesn’t matter I’m here so I might as well just get on with this. At least there aren’t many notes.

Nothing from the school because it was a Sunday and nothing from the dorms. Sorry, Porg.

So we’ll discuss what we have from the town. Summer-who-isn’t-my-Summer was at The Perk for coffee. Charlie-who-is-a-different-Charlie was there as well, trying to figure out how he could get off the island and talking on the phone. Summer advised he just wait. I came in for coffee and to check on Summer when I saw her and to see if she was a robot. And then Liliana-who-is-a-squirrel came in. As a squirrel. Which was confusing for not-the-usual-Charlie, understandably, and shocking for not-my-Summer. Also understandably. People who aren’t used to here aren’t used to people being animals, usually, especially ones that can talk. But Liliana and I discussed gloves made of squirrels.

*angry chittering*

None of you were harmed, were you? And you won’t be if you don’t bother her too much.

And then someone named Chloe was looking for Steph but didn’t find her.

Someone named Barbie was at the bakery in the afternoon and confused by drinks being liquid, it seems. I…all right. Someone named Chad was looking for Eleanor and wondered if Barbie was her but she wasn’t, of course, because she was Barbie. Barbie was also not Harley though Arden thought she might be. Arden also explained to Chad that he wouldn’t be able to find Eleanor but offered to give her his number. The-other-Charlie came in to the bakery after leaving the Perk to have more loud phone calls Barbie suggested he try using the door when he asked if she knew how to leave. Chad asked Charlie if he knew Eleanor and Charlie did know another Eleanor but not the one here who Chad was probably looking for. And Arden offered Charlie some advice about leaving the island. Well. She told him he wouldn’t be able to until today, probably.

I certainly hope everyone is back to themselves, now, and back where they belong. Except Anakin who isn’t here where he belongs for some reason but I’m sure he’s fine and probably not a cat again. I’m going to go check on-

*chittering*

Yes, of course her! And I expect I’ll be back here again Wednesday to tell you about things that have happened tomorrow.
stykera: (lost boy)
[personal profile] stykera
Good morning, it’s Wednesday, I’m not a koala today, and I’m here to talk about what the squirrels wrote about from yesterday.

We’ll start with the school as always. The day began with meditation for Self-Defense for Shinies 2 meditating in what appeared to be a Jedi temple. The Wonderful World of Pizza traveled to California for pizza. Ooh. Pizza sounds good. Summer focused on…weenies…for her Nightmare Party Planning from the Mid-Century. In Philosophy there was talk of thinking and doubting beliefs. More Earth Tourism visited a place called Salar de Uyuni for what was apparently an amazing sunset and then in Grow Your Own Garden worked on thinning out plants to make sure there was room for the rest to grow.

The porg is just sighing heavily so it seems we have no notes from the dorms so we’ll go right into the town. Ignis tried not to be distracted at the diner but Liliana arrived as usual and I don’t think more needs to be said. There was talk of the Olympics at Atlas Gym and visits from Summer, Arden who was looking for advice, Kamala, Nell who Gladio was glad to see as always, and me.

Prompto had his usual visit from his family while he worked at The Photo Hut. Amaya had no visitors at the Forge this week but did get some work done on a fancy sword of some kind. Dean, in Liliana’s shop, was not bothered by the usual chair but that only served to make him nervous. Understandable, I supposed. Nell was not nervous at all at Plant Parenthood but was working on some new tea blends.

The movie theatre was showing a movie about a woman with a scar and both Bucky and Ulysses were at work. Charlie was also at work at Groovy Tunes even though it was her birthday. But she received a phone call from Graham in honor of the occasion as well as a visit from Arden . Happy birthday, Charlie.

It looks like one final note from the junkyard where Cal went instead of going to class and Arden came to check on him with a Red Squishy and oh…there’s rather a lot of glitter now. I can barely read the rest but it seems like they were discussing being allowed to have feelings? Or maybe there was a glitter storm of some kind. Perhaps both.

That seems to be all. Be way of the park, everyone!
stykera: (eye)
[personal profile] stykera
Good morning, it’s Wednesday again so I’m here again with news of the island as written by squirrels.

We’ll start with the school because we always start with the school. There were cats in Self-Defense for Shinies but none of those cats were Anakin because he’s back to himself now. That’s good. It’s best when people can be themselves. The Wonderful World of Pizza went to Chicago this time for deep dish. That sounds good. Nightmare Party Planning from the Mid-Century found Summer offering lots of pies some of which were horrifying and several other dishes which were all terrible. But none had fish heads sticking out. At least there was that. Philosophy class discussed ‘others’ and humanity. More Earth Tourism went to Fiji and snorkeled. And in Grow Your Own Garden students learned about the importance of proper hydration for plants.

The porg has just sighed very heavily so I assume we have no notes from the dorms and nothing from the boarding house either?

*chittering*

No, I’m not going to say that. Hush.

In town Nell received some vanilla ice cream in a surprise delivery while at work. That sounds like a wonderful surprise. Gladio had new flavors of Cup Noodle™ in the gym’s claw machine and visits from from Summer, Nell, and Arden who hadn’t been the gym before and talked to both Nell and Gladio, and I was there as well.

Ignis had several French-inspired specials at the diner but Dean wanted burritos which he was eventually going to feed to the chair in Liliana’s shop. Liliana also came in for…lunch. Not burritos.

Ulysses was at the movie theatre, as was his boss.

Prompto was at the Photo Hut working on ideas for his Crumble which he shared during the usual visit from his wife and daughter. Amaya, however, was not working on her Crumbler at the Forge but was working on a fancy sword instead.

And finally Bucky brought pizza and beer to Jesse’s place in the evening.

Be careful of the park now that Anakin is himself again. It is Wednesday.
stykera: (side view)
[personal profile] stykera
Good morning, it’s Wednesday and I’m here. Not for long, I hope, I have things to do. It’s Summer’s birthday.

*chittering*

No, Leroy, I don’t think she wants that at all.

Let’s start with the school as always. Self-Defense for Shinies had a water fight with colored water which seems a bit like paintball but without the welts from the ammunition. Make Your Own Pizza grilled pizzas outside. This Dren is Bananas! had three odd recipes from Summer including one making fake bananas out of vegetables. I don’t know either. Practical Philosophy discussed truth and knowledge. Earth Tourism went to Japan. Japan is good. I liked the trip there. And in Delicious In Dungeon the students found and cooked some sort of creature that’s a chicken and a snake at the same time. All right.

The porg is sighing heavily but not crying since he did have notes recently so we’ll skip the dorms and move right on to the town.

The clinic contained Stabby getting his portrait painted and Will being confused by the number of tongue depressors. That’s reasonable. There are usually a lot.

Prompto was very excited and then disappointed in a lot of leather at The Photo Hut before his family arrived for their usual visit. Ignis was dealing with some sort of infinite steak at the diner and was, as always, more than willing to be distracted by Liliana’s usual visit.

Gladio had the ping pong table moved into the lobby of the gym instead of his office and there were plans for some sort of tournament. Summer had a new outfit, of course, and Nell was there discussing dinner plans.

Amaya was hard at work at the Forge on a new project. Dean was…really? All right. Dean was watching a video with a suit of armor. Not wearing the armor. Just watching a video with it.

Lucy was at Stark Industries taking things apart. Remy was at Needful Things even though the squirrels and I are still unsure if he works there or not. And Don came in looking for a cane to travel with.

Oh, because Don had gotten an odd phone call about having to go to Albany and then decided to ask Jane for help while he was away.

Nell was having a very pleasant day at Plant Parenthood and Charlie was having a very nice nap at Groovy Tunes.

Margo and Irene were planning something over drinks and food at Margo’s house.

And finally Kitty was making blended drinks last night at Caritas. That does sound good in this weather. Perhaps I should have gone there.

That seems to be everything from yesterday, today. Remember to beware of Anakin and to wish Summer a happy birthday!
stykera: (look at this)
[personal profile] stykera
Good morning, it’s Wednesday and I’m here again and ready to start with notes from the school. Self-Defense for Shinies practiced some basic self-defense and there was an extra Anakin and that sounds horrible, I’m sorry students. Raiden discussed how best to use an oven in Make Your Own Pizza!. Summer had a suspiciously cute dessert in This Dren is Bananas. In Practical Philosophy they discussed identity and selves. In Earth Tourism they visited Italy and then finally in Delicious In Dungeon they had vegetables that look like people.

I have no dorms notes so I have a sad porg who needs to be hugged so we’ll move on to the town as we usually do.

Will found Stabby being painted at the clinic. Buck was enjoying the breeze but not his paperwork at the fire station and Diego was looking at toys instead of doing his paperwork at the trooper station.

Gladio had a mysterious ping pong table in his office at the gym and played with Nell. Summer and I were there as well but not playing ping pong.

Ignis was given decaf coffee by someone at the diner but luckily Liliana was able to calm him down. Prompto helped someone replace a lost camera at The Photo Hut and had his usual visit from his wife and daughter. Amaya was working on her project from last week at The Forge. Wanda was researching how to plant new flowers at her shop. Perhaps she should have gone to see Nell at Plant Parenthood and gotten advice and cake. Charlie was doing something called busking outside Groovy Tunes.

Remy was at Needful Things again along with a lot of tiny frogs and ducks but not ones that were alive. Marc stopped by to check in and discuss Harley since it is her shop. Liliana was surprised to see Remy and not Harley and the squirrels couldn’t understand a lot of what they said but they seemed to get along.

And Harley wasn’t at her shop because she was at the boarding house doing her laundry. Watts found her in the living room and offered baked goods. Always a good idea. Harley was also getting texts from a dead man and I honestly do not know what the squirrels mean by that. And then Marc came home and they sat on the couch together and the squirrels are making some odd noises right now.

That seems to be everything the squirrels have to say about yesterday for today. If you’re caught by Anakin today good luck and maybe I’ll see some of you there or at the bar.

Once again it’s Wednesday morning so I’m here to read you the notes the squirrels made of everyone’s lives yesterday, beginning with the school.

There were fake laser swords in Self-Defense for Shinies, sausage-making in Make your Own Pizza!, more sausages and pork and bacon and cheese sauce to go with the bananas in This Dren is Bananas, there was discussion of community in Practical Philosophy, a visit to Everest in Earth Tourism, and mimics in Delicious in Dungeon.

Unfortunately I have no notes from the dorms, just a sad porg demanding a cuddle, but I do have notes from the town.

Will found more crustacean sculpture at the clinic. Gladio was considering installing giant hamster wheels at Atlas Gym. Wait, what? He asked Nell for her opinion on the idea, offered help to Kamala and so did Nell, and talked with me as well.

*chittering*

Yes, of course Summer was there as well. At the boarding house Marc had plenty of visitors in his office. Arden wanted to discuss paying rent but Marc seemed unreceptive. Harley came to see Marc while waiting for her laundry to finish and there is some discussion among the squirrels over whether their plan to have dinner together on the mainland is deserving of glitter or not. I’d rather not be covered in glitter but they’ve never taken my feelings into account before. Cal was convinced to help with installing speakers on the roof of the building, and Watts brought Marc a coffee.

Ignis made fish at the diner and Summer and I did not go there for burgers even though I’m sure they would have been delicious but Liliana did come in for brunch.

Prompto found something like a camera for looking at photos and shared it with his wife and daughter at The Photo Hut. Amaya worked on something pointy at Forge. I wonder what.

Charlie found music by cats at Groovy Tunes and then Stewart arrived and…announced he owned the store now? All right. Nell already owns her store and was moving plants into bigger pots there. Dean didn’t have to fight with any chairs today at the Infinite Consortium but he was on the phone about having something delivered. Hopefully not anymore chairs that want to eat people.

Lucy was at Stark, Tony-not-me, Industries getting a drink from the gremlin at the Starbucks and Steve came in to show off the banana meat thing he made to bring home to Tony. Oh no.

Remy was working at Needful Things again even though he doesn’t actually work there and Harley came in to…maybe remind him of that? Or just to talk. Remy was also at Caritas where Kitty was not being hugged by Tino. Oh dear. She told Remy about invasions and things on the island. Good things to know, Remy.

And finally I have a not that the lights were all green for Lucifer at the Devil’s Nest.

That seems to be everything. Be careful of Anakin today, everyone, he may still be upset about paintball on Monday.

Good morning. It’s Wednesday again. There are new people so the squirrels said I ought to introduce myself, I’m Stark, and say that I’m not Australian. I’m not. There. Moving on to the news for today from yesterday.

From the school we had our first Tuesday of classes. Diplomacy, Relationships, and Tactics: the Art of War was the first class of the day and one of the longest names. Because it was the first day there were introductions. That’s what first classes tend to be for. We also had introductions in In the Cupcake of Good and Evil before making some cupcakes to represent ourselves. Summer’s had a shrimp on it because she’s Summer. That makes sense if you’ve met her if you haven’t yet. Art in STEM did not do introductions but they did look at a very ugly truck. In Shop Class we did do introductions and then we built squirrelhouses. Mine is not for you to use, Leroy. Ever.

*disgruntled chittering*

You’ve brought this on yourself and you know it.

Unfortunately for our young porg friend we have no notes from the dormsthis morning. We do have plenty from the town.

Gladio was at the gym as he nearly always is on Tuesdays. So were some of the people from last week but not the rude ones. Summer was there early, as was I. Jon also came in for what seems to have been the first time and Gladio seemed glad to see him. And the squirrels would like to note that Nell was not at all late in her arrival.

Ignis was making dishes with apricots at Luke’s Diner and Liliana arrived to see him and presumably for lunch.

Ulysses was having trouble with sound at the movie theatre but Arden came by and offered him some headphones to help.

Wanda had a quiet inventory day at The Magic Box with a visit from Steve who was avoid Tony’s quest to make a better truck than the ugly truck from earlier in the day. Nell was at Plant Parenthood preparing to make bath bombs. I’m still not sure what those really are.

At the clinic Will found Stabby being lectured on his language by the nurses. Stabby is being especially crabby this year and it hasn’t even been 2 weeks yet. Arthur spent his time at Rosa’s office looking up the ugly truck from the art class in the morning. Buck was very disappointed by the weather yesterday while he was at the fire station but Eddie came by to visit and brought lunch which was soggy from the rain but Eddie didn’t cook it because he hasn’t taken his cooking class yet. And at the trooper station Diego was back to work for the first time since the babies were born and disturbed by how quiet it was. It didn’t stay quiet since he received visits from Steve who brought him a wobbly figure and talked about siblings and Watts who talked to him about the Humphrey who also works at the station now.

Navaan who I don’t think I’ve met yet? She was at Arthur’s apartment with several dummies. Is that right?

*affirmative chittering* All right. She was trying to be his roommate but he didn’t want a roommate. I understand that. You need your own space, sometimes. She seemed upset to be unwanted though. I understand that as well.

And finally we have a note that Steve tried to lure Tony out of his lab with dinner so he would stop trying to make new trucks.

That's all the squirrels have for me this morning about things that happened yesterday.

Good morning Fandom. It’s Wednesday and I’m here again to tell you about what happened yesterday here on the island. Happy new year if I haven’t told you that already in person. I haven’t seen all that many of you yet.

No notes from the school due to school not starting yet and no notes from the dorms due to the dorms being even quieter than usual.

*sad trilling*

Perhaps we’ll have more luck with the dorms with new students. We do have notes from the town. That’s good otherwise the squirrels would have brought me here for no reason at all.

Will found that Stabby’s resolution was to be crabbier this year. I’m a bit worried, honestly. He had a strange woman appear from one of the exam rooms as well.

Arthur was dealing with odd phone calls at Rosa’s office so at least that hasn’t changed with the year changing.

Gladio found a number of unfamiliar people in the gym during the day. Summer had a new outfit as always but wasn’t amused by the newcomers. Neither was Nell since they were apparently rude to her and she and Gladio discussed ways to avoid them. I didn’t much care for them either.

Amaya was busy, as always, at her shop. But not so busy she didn’t have time for a visit from Irene to discuss…business.

Nell had a quiet day at Plant Parenthood with her kittens.

Liliana was at the Perk where she met with Humphrey who had trouble getting tea and met Irene. Irene also chatted with Liliana about pens and classes. I also stopped in for coffee after the gym and Liliana and I talked about New Years and upcoming holidays.

And Ignis was at the diner as he usually is on Tuesdays and Liliana arrived and asked for a surprise for lunch.

That seems to be all from yesterday for today. Perhaps I’ll see some of you later.

Good morning, Fandom, it’s Wednesday again and I’m here again. It’s snowing today. Be careful.

*chittering*

It’s hardly my fault you’ve got green splotches, now is it? I didn’t make you go outside.

We’ll start with notes from the school as always. Archaeology for Fun and Profit! had an exam but really just watched a movie. Yes, that movie. Philosophies of Good and Evil also had an exam but no movie. Photography 101 didn’t have an exam or a movie but they did put together portfolios.

The porg, who has some lovely red speckles today, was very pleased to inform me that we have a note from the dorms where Gray was extremely cozy in the 2nd floor common room in his snuggie. They were very comfortable.

And now we have notes from the town where things are currently colorful but less comfortable than they were yesterday.

Will had a doctor reindeer on his snuggie yesterday and seemed to enjoy that. Stabby, however, created fleecy carnage with various cozy apparel yesterday because he is a very grumpy crab this month. Arthur didn’t seem terribly happy with his own comfortable attire at Rosa’s office but did eventually accept his fate. His very cozy fate. Jon met with Humphrey who needed an apartment and…oh. Moved in next to me? There was also possibly someone else there but the notes don’t seem sure of this.

Nell seemed quite fond of her snuggies as were her kittens. Pancakes seemed like them as well. Perhaps all cats do? Charlie played guitar while her enjoying her snuggie as well. I think everyone should have enjoyed them. I wouldn’t have minded if they’d stayed.

Amaya was at work in the forge where the snuggie seemed a bit dangerous and Irene was concerned that Amaya might catch fire and then asked her to go to London with her for Christmas. That ought to be nice for them, I think? I’ve never been there. I don’t really know. There also may have been someone just outside but there are more unclear notes about that.

Gladio suggested snuggies become the new gym uniform though Sonja thought the plan was flawed because it would prevent shirtlessness. She wasn’t wrong. Summer was there lifting weights in a snuggie which could count as a cute new outfit, in my opinion. Quiet, Leroy. I also chose to use the weights at the gym very coincidentally. Nell opted for yoga and snuggling in her snuggie but not snuggling at the gym. And then there’s another note about someone being outside.

And finally at the diner Ignis was not very fond of his snuggie but did seem to enjoy messaging Liliana about food and Christmas and then delivering lunch to her. And once again there was someone else there. Apparently.

That seems to be everything from yesterday for today. Watch out for the snow. Umbrellas might be wise.

Good morning, this is Stark and it’s Wednesday again so I’m here with the squirrels to tell you the things they spied on yesterday.

Classes have started again so we have notes from the school. There were introductions in Archeology for Fun and Profit! and in Philosophies of Good & Evil and in Photography 101 because classes are just starting and introductions are what we do at the beginning.

*sad trilling*

And much to the intern porg’s disappointment we have no notes from the dorms but we do, of course, have notes from the town.

Buck was looking for ways to cool off at the fire station. It was hot. It’s hot again. Better than being cold, I think. Diego had drawers full of sugar at the police station. I’m not sure if that’s better or worse than the coffee from the other day. At the clinic, Will had to deal with with confetti every time Stabby used his noisemaker. Was it a holiday again? I thought Monday was the holiday but I don’t know all of them. And at Rosa’s office Arthur was doing filing. Hopefully his drawers were not full of coffee or anything you put in coffee.

Gladio had new pumpkin spice Cup Noodle™ in the claw machine at the gym which Summer tried to win and Nell teased Gladio about oh no that’s a lot of glitter. I was also there but didn’t discuss noodles with Gladio.

At the Forge, Amaya was working on the handle to go with her tiny metal hand. Ignis finally gave in to pumpkin season at the diner. Maybe I should have gone there. Charlie was late to Groovy Tunes and had pizza for lunch. That sounds good too. Nell was at Plant Parenthood making lotions and then in the evening she hosted her usual Tuesday gathering with pizza. Gladio oh dear more glitter was there, of course. Ignis also joined them with something called beanball croquettes but I have no idea what that is and Lana joined them as well.

Steven and Watts were unpacking in their…house…and Steven surprised Watts with matching pajamas.

And finally Lucifer was playing piano and singing at the bar while Atton had a drink.

That seems to be everything I have to read today from yesterday.
stykera: (goofy face)
[personal profile] stykera
I hope everyone had a good holiday. If it was a holiday that you celebrate I know not everyone does. I don’t, really.

*chittering*

No, I didn’t go see fireworks where would I go?

So even though it was a holiday here we still had classes at the school. The day began with Introduction to Dinosaurs Part 2 taking a quiz for fun. The Art of Laziness had lazy introductions. There were also introductions happening in Buckle Those Swashes. There were no introductions in Sam Eagle Presents WeirDON’TS: How Not To Be Weird, Part 2 but there was Beaker and Beaker brought with him fireworks and a band of penguins. One of those things exploded.

Unfortunately for Intern Porg we had no notes from the dorms but at least he had some over the weekend. So we shall move on to the town.

Will was in the clinic to the surprise of the nurses and Stabby was concerned about missing cousins in New York. I hope they’re found. Arthur was dealing with odd phone calls about fireworks at Rosa’s office. I wonder if that’s better than odd calls about animals?

There were only 3 of us at the gym yesterday with Gladio but there were new noodle flavors in the claw machine. Summer had another new outfit, of course, Nell was working on kicking things, and I decided to practice punching things again.

*chittering*

No not for any reason Leroy, stop looking at me like that.



Amaya had to attend a ceremony for her lobsters becoming citizens of this country before opening the Forge. Charlie was being lazy and playing a game with the stereo at Groovy Tunes. Nell wasn’t being lazy at Plant Parenthood but she did have a book to read when it was quiet.

Ignis had an American theme for the food at the diner in honor of the holiday. Marc questioned him about the color of the meat which seems an odd question for Ignis to be asked. Watts came in for a vegan lunch and talked to Marc about possible evening plans.

Those evening plans, at least for Watts, ended up being the usual Tuesday night gathering at Nell’s. Gladio brought firework themed sodas along with some Cup Noodle™ to share with Nell and not tell Ignis about. Oh. I hope he’s not listening. Ignis brought sliders and discussed taking Summer’s class with me on Fridays. I’m sorry, Ignis, for everything you’re going to be subjected to but you did bring this on yourself. Watts brought red, white, and blue cinnamon rolls and spoke with Gladio.
Lana was also there to discuss the idea of bringing one of her holidays here to the island in the future. Later on, Watts and Ignis both left, while Lana stayed and commented on how fireworks come from the ground here rather than the sky, and Gladio...
Where did you even find a firework that would explode glitter everywhere? That was unnecessary. Fine. Gladio offered to bring Nell something to enjoy on the roof which she found a bit startling and the squirrels seem to have found worthy of an excessive amount of glitter.

Hopefully that’s all the glitter I’ll have to deal with today. Although it’s Wednesday. You never know what happen on a Wednesday in the summer.

One last note. Watts was up late at night to go knock on the door to Steven and Marc’s apartment. I thought he had a key?

That’s all for today. Hopefully Anakin won’t be doing anything too terrible to us later in the day.
stykera: (mask)
[personal profile] stykera
Right, let’s just begin with notes from the school so I can go prepare myself for whatever horrors Anakin has in store for us later. Maybe I’ll eat a proper breakfast.

*trilling*

Hmm? No. Not that.

Introduction to Dinosaurs was missing a teacher-

*chittering*

Oh. There's more on that later they say. Right. The Art of Bashō worked on pairs of poems while The Great Fandom Photography Scavenger Hunt looked at last week’s photos of colors and learned they have to take selfies this week. Loot, Loot, Loot watched a very familiar movie and of course Totally Safe Science remained not safe at all with sparklers and candies that caught fire? Of course they did.

The porg is looking terribly sad due to our lack of dorms notes. Perhaps tomorrow my friend. There’s always hope. But for now, notes from the town.

Amaya was working on repairing her greenhouse when Dwight came to apologize for missing class on Monday and Irene came to visit and this page has more glitter on it than I would like.

Gladio hung a new sign about various reasons to go to the gym which seems to have worked. Summer had another new outfit which of course looked good, Nell and Gladio discussed future plans for hitting each other with sticks, Marc got a gold star even though Gladio seemed less pleased with him once they were done talking, I came in as usual and still didn’t get any stickers. Neither did Annie but she may have only been there for the noodles and Steve and Gladio talked about Danny still being a cat. I’m sorry, Danny.

Nell had a pleasant day at work at Plant Parenthood before having another baseball night with Gladio and oh that’s more glitter why is there more glitter? But not with Marc who didn’t even show up but Lana did. That’s good.

Oh, right, back to the “more on that later” note the squirrels left. After class, Cutter went looking for Connor who wasn’t in class and found him in his apartment and took him to the clinic.

Will was at the clinic where Stabby was making hand…crabted? Is that a word? Items. Wouldn’t they be claw…crabted? But Cutter bringing Connor in seems like more of an issue. I hope he’s doing better today.

That seems to be all of today’s notes from yesterday. I imagine I will be back for more of the same next week.
stykera: (mask)
[personal profile] stykera
I don’t know why I thought you might drag someone else into this today. Since you didn’t we might as well just try and finish it quickly.

We have no notes from the school or the dorms this week since the teachers and the students and I are all on the trip and we’re here in Indonesia where it is warm and is beautiful.

*chittering*

Yes, I’m staying with Summer and you ought to be quiet and not bother her.

Summer: *groaning* Too late….

Stark: Sorry! Sorry, sorry. Look what you did, squirrels.

*chittering*

Yes I know there’s only one bed I’m sleeping in it but only because she wouldn’t let me sleep on the floor.

Summer: Don't sleep on the floor, Stark…Leroy, get off my face.

Stark: There are only two notes from the town. Things are quiet there. Especially at the fire station where Buck was napping. And at Rosa’s office, Arthur received a call from the Bee Lady.

The rest of the notes are from here on the trip because the squirrels followed us here just like they always do. In the villas, Tahani was lounging by her pool again in what the squirrels tell me is yet another swimsuit though I’m not sure why they care.

At the rest of the resort, Gladio was having breakfast and reading in the Ombak while Clare was lounging near the big pool. On the beach, Irene and Amaya discussed arrows and mud baths, Shunsui relaxed, and Amicia watched the water.

Cutter and Connor had a contest while kite surfing but Rosa and Ignis and Steve seemed to keep to themselves while trying it out. Sidon, Sakaki, and Alara all went snorkeling. And several of us went to the Blue Waterfall for the day, including myself, Summer, Anakin, Jo, Libby, Jon, and Nell. Graham was also there spending time with both Charlie and Guillermo.

Summer: Leroy, I swear to god, if you don't get off my bed right now, I will throw you into the ocean.

Stark: If she throws you in Leroy you have only yourself to blame.

Then in the evening, there was a cooking class at the resort attended by Nell, Goose, Guillermo, and Ignis who spent much of the time speaking with Nell.
There was also a bonfire on the beach which many of us attended, including Charlie, Graham, Libby, Shunsui who talked to Lana, Sidon, Connor and Cutter, Sakaki, and Dwight who talked to Miguel and to me.

Back at the villas, Clare was very burnt from her day at the beach but both TJ and Charlie offered to help her. And Summer was in our room relaxing and planning for tomorrow’s room party in our villa which everyone who isn’t a student should come to, and I came back from the bonfire with snacks and offered to help with that party if she needs it.

Summer: *very clearly at the mic now* It's going to be at the pool here in the Kasambi estate, everyone! There will be lots of jello! You're not gonna want to miss it! Okay, see you all there, except you students, unless you want Gladio or Rosa throwing you in the ocean like I'm going to do to Leeeeroyyyy! Good luck with the rest of the notes, Stark! Byeeeeee!

Stark: Oh…I wonder if Leroy knows how to swim?
somethingwithturquoise: (what.everrrr. (at the hulk musical.))
[personal profile] somethingwithturquoise
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it. Stark's a koala, he can't do the broadcast, I'm stuck with him as a koala, so I guess I'm stuck doing his laundry and his broadcast. Just don't get any ideas, Leroy, I will reinstate the restraining order.

*sighs* *clears throat*

Heyyyyyyy, everyone! Good morning, happy Wednesdays. It's me, Summer, covering for the broadcast today because your usual glowy-faced alien is currently a more fuzzy-faced koala. Hopefully, you guys didn't do much yesterday or the squirrels were too drunk to care, so I don't have a lot to say and I can get back to making some very important jello shots.

Let's see. So. In the School, Basic Weaponry went over siege weapons, and Topics in Jedi Philosophy got to talk about death and the Force. Intro to Ship Maintenence-- [BEEP], that reminds me, I need to change my oil--had to get a stuck torpedo out in the middle of battle, and Sexier Crime: the Show!--really, we have a class for everything around here--watched a musical about chicks in prison that wasn't meta forChicago.

No notes for the dorms because kids these days just aren't as cool as they were back in my day, aaaaaand in the town, it was a busy morning at the gym, where Nell got help with the rowing machines from Gladio and the weights from Marc, who then avoided talking about a phone call he tried to ignore with Gladio.

At the Clinic, Will learned that Stabby was missing Stark an awful lot, and see, Stark? Maybe you could hang out with him and one of the nurses for a whi--

*gagging, choking sounds*

Okay, okay, that's my windpipe, let's not--

*deep inhale*

Okay, fine, I won't dump you on the nurses. Moving on, Charlie was in a good mood at Groovy Tunes, Nell was having a good, productive day at Plant Parenthood, and everything was coming up roses for Amaya over at the forge.

Ugh, really, you guys? Anyway, hopefully no one got sick after cooking with eucalyptus for me and Stark's baking class, and Tino was of course going way overboard in advertising for Three Minute Dates this weekend over at Caritas, where Anakin was full of whiskey and excuses and complained to Kitty about eternal Mondays.

Hey, Anakin! You know what might make you feel better? A nice, cuddly koala beAR--god, you're strong. Fine, I won't pawn you off on Anakin, although he pawned you on me the last time, it's only fair, but don't think that'll save you from having your fur dyed.

The chocobros--

*protesting chittering*

Yes, that's their name, they're a collective, do you really want me to list everyone who was--

*arguing chitters* Fine, fine! Gladio, Ignis, Goose, Prompto, Liz, and their baby so the squirrels don't get made at me for not mentioning her, too, all went out for a fancy dinner for Ignis' birthday yesterday; happy birthday, Ignis, I'm sure you had a great time, but there's no way that party was better than that pool party we threw for you that one time, and then Marc went over to Watts', and so did Annie, and these notes are nearly incomprehensible except for the fact that the squirrels feel there needed to be less whiskey and wine and more rum.

But, you guys, more whiskey and wine there means more rum out there in the world for you.

*squirrel-like pause*

*squirrel-like cheers*

Well, good news, guys, that's the last of the notes, so you're free to go drink and be weird little voyeurs all over again for today! I have some jello to make. If anyone's interested in babysitting a koala, please let me--Hey! Look! I just wanted to throw it ou--

The squirrels have brought me back, again, so it seems like I’m meant to keep doing this even though there’s a new year. Again. I suppose I ought to read the notes then.

Classes started again so we do have notes from the school this week. Rosa and Amaya had students pick out weapons to experiment with in Basic Weaponry, Lana introduced the topic of Jedi Philosophy before the students made their own introductions, Jaina had students introduce themselves in Intro to Spaceship Maintenance, and then Isabela and Aphra played a movie in Sexier Crimes: The Show.

*chittering*

Yes, I see that that’s the real name, thank you Leroy.

Unfortunately for our young porg friend there were no notes from the dorms.

*discouraged trilling*

Perhaps you’ll have better luck tomorrow with today’s news. For now, here are the notes from the town. At the fire station, Buck was enjoying the warm weather by doing not much of anything. That’s a good way to enjoy the weather, I think. Also a good way to enjoy cold weather. Will was at the clinic where he learned that Stabby works there. I learned that just now. I didn’t know he got paid.

Summer was at Turtle & Canary dealing with a sleeping Apu and offering a sale for new people even though there was only one of them this year. She was also texting Liz at The Photo Hut about her wedding. Liz’s wedding. Not Summer’s.

Gladio was at the gym along with raccoons and gremlins who were working ou-

*chittering*

No that doesn’t make me nervous. Much. And Marc came in and got a sticker from Gladio. Nell was at Plant Parenthood where her kittens were enjoying some catnip plants. Charliepracticed her mandolin at Groovy Tunes after stopping the bagpipe music. And at Rosa’s office, Arthur was working on missing mittens. At least it was fairly warm?

And then in the evening Kitty was at Caritas taking down decorations from the party but making Tino do most of it since he’d made most of the mess and Summer and I started our new baking class with some very odd cupcakes.

That seems to be all of yesterday’s news today. Or today’s news from yesterday. I still haven’t decided which way sounds better.
stykera: (look at this)
[personal profile] stykera
Good morning everyone, I hope. It’s another Wednesday and so I’m here with a few notes from the squirrels.

Nothing from the school since there are no classes still. Nothing from the dorms since there aren’t many students around. That means everything is from the town.

It seems that Liz and Prompto were adorable at the Photo Hut while she looked at wedding things and he delivered soup. Oh look. Glitter. Leroy, why? And then more glitter on the notes from the Forge where Irene visited Amaya and discussed…crackers? That explode. Right. Of course.

No glitter, at least, on the notes from the Atlas Gym where Gladio was offering discounts but only for people in the future. What? And then Marc came in and discussed zombies at the gym with him. Of course. Arthur was at Rosa’s office by himself with…exploding crackers. Right. But no glitter.

No glitter on the Caritas notes either. I would hope not. It was only Kitty and Tino there setting up things for New Years and experimenting with different beverages.

That seems to be everything. Probably less quiet next week once more people are back.
stykera: (looking sideways)
[personal profile] stykera
No, no I’m not bleeding. Why do you…oh no that’s not blood. I don’t think? I think I would have noticed.

*chittering*

No I haven’t been ‘shot a little again,’ Leroy!

Give me the notes from the school please. There were cats in Libraries and Books and there may have been cats in It’s Actually Not That Complicated but the squirrels didn’t say so but there was definitely a movie about women swapping houses to go on holiday and then there was a cat in American Inventions who wasn’t Tony because Tony was himself and they talked about someone named Tesla. Tony and Steve did, not the cat. The cat didn’t talk.

*trilling*

Yes, thank you intern porg, we do have a note from the dorms and I see that you’ve added glitter. Speaking of cats, Five who was a cat was in Belle’s room when suddenly he was no longer a cat and stole a blanket because he had no clothes. That seems reasonable to me. You need something in these situations.

And the town...oh that seems like more notes than usual. Is this more than usual? Is it because of all the cats? There were cats at the Photo Hut where Liz took pictures of them until Steven came to bring her cookies shaped like puppies for Prompto’s birthday. There were not cats at the forge but Amaya was taking an order for something for a mouse. Perhaps to protect it from the cats? No cats at the gym where Gladio was climbing ropes.

Wanda was at the Magic Box making toys for the cats that were there and she had several visitors. Jane told Wanda about being a reindeer for a week, I’m sorry Jane, and Wanda offered to make things for her to fight. Steve brought coffee and talked about Tony and grief, and Marc brought cookies and was introduced to Jeff the skeleton, and then Scott hoped Wanda would have an explanation for the cats. No. The only explanation is that strange things happen here. Strange things like the music at Groovy Tunes being different versions of the same song until Charlie stopped it. Slightly less strange, I think, was Arthur at Rosa’s office to start his new job when she called him as she walked in. That’s a little strange though. And then she explained some of the strangeness here, including the raccoons.

Outside during the day Nell was in the woods with cats and some alots. Which are strange animals, aren’t they? And Graham and Guillermo went exploring with Triumph and also found an alot and there seems to be a bit of glitter here as well. But not Alot of Glitter. I’m not sure that would fit in here.

There were also cats at the clinic with Will but Stabby was selling art on Seabay and that was more interesting. Rey also had cats with her and Will’s dog and texted to tell him about it. The fire station also had cats for Buck to play with and it also had Eddie though there was no playing there, just talking about cats and cowboy hats.

In the afternoon, Prompto was at J,GoB having a ‘Sad Birthday Cupcake.’ Jane came in for a lot of pastries to make up for not having any while she was a reindeer and met Prompto. She also talked to Raiden about having been a reindeer last week after he ordered even more baked goods than Jane did and talking to Prompto about his birthday. Prompto also had dinner at Cafe Fina with Liz for his birthday and the squirrels assure me that it was adorable. Happy birthday again, Prompto.

We had cats and mildly frightening cupcakes in Chopped class yesterday but the cats were not an ingredient.

*chittering*

No, we’ve never used squirrel either. You would know, Leroy. And then finally at Caritas Kitty was dealing with cats breaking glasses and Rosa was judging the plastic cups and the peanut butter and jelly drink which I think sounds good. Maybe I should try one another time? And then Tony was there to talk about not talking with Steve with Kitty.

Is that all? That’s all of the notes for today about yesterday. I probably ought to go change my shirt.

…thank you squirrels and porg for that song. Songs?

*chittering*

I see. A medley of songs from musicals? About France and…Camelot. Where’s that? No, I don’t care if it's a silly place. This is a silly place, sometimes.

Classes at the school weren’t any sillier than usual, at least. The Libraries and Books class learned about some libraries in France, It’s Actually Not That Complicated watched a movie where a man suddenly could hear women’s thoughts which sounds like something that might happen here. American Inventions learned about the invention of sliced bread and ate sandwiches and then How To Deal With Your Dark Side practiced defending their own minds. That’s a good thing to know how to do. Keeping people out.

Nothing from the dorms and more sad faces from Leroy and his fellow reporters on the notes. But there seemed to be plenty happening in the town.

*sound of tiny coconut hoofbeats*

What…? Nevermind. It seems a lot of the notes were due to a Belle and Graham being bitten by a gremlin and thinking they were other people. Oh. We haven’t really talked about the gremlins in class yet. Maybe after the trip we ought to. Graham and Belle, who were Arthur, King of the Britons and ‘Brave Sir Robin’ at the time met up with Charlie who may have become their minstrel who hopefully wasn’t eaten. What? Guillermo directed the Quest towards the school. I wonder if they found what they were looking for? Oh. No. Charlie went to work where she spoked with Tisarwat and helped Graham-who-was-Arthur continue his Quest. Arthur-who-was-really-Graham’s Quest also led him to Caritas where Arthur-Graham questioned Kitty about his grail while listening to the zombies play country music. The Quest also led Robin-who-was-really-Belle to the fire station where Buck thought the spiders were gross and Belle-who-was-Robin ‘bravely ran away.’ I see. At the clinic, Will was able to go inside this week where he found Stabby building a barricade and listened to the sound of angry crabs? And when Robin-Belle arrived on the Quest, Stabby began throwing tiny furniture. Stabby!

The Devil’s Nest was free of quests but full of long island iced teas from Lucifer and Tiny, while the Perk was also Questless but instead full of pumpkin spice coffee and Connor doing research. Surf’s Up was full of the usual porgs with Billy and one wanted goggles. Amaya worked on daggers at the forge before Dwight arrived to give her some wood. Stop snickering, Leroy.

Liz decorated for Halloween at the Photo Hut and Prompto brought her sandwiches and the squirrels have drawn little glitter hearts around this. And finally we have notes from the museum where Watts was keeping Steven company and they had visitors in Nell who spoke to both Watts and Steven, and Liz who only spoke to Steven. I ought to check on him today.

Finally we had the Chopped: Fandom Edition class where Summer and I offered French cupcakes even though one was really a muffin and everyone was meant to make something else. Luckily none of the ingredients were horrifying this week.

That seems to be all, the porg is still disappointed I do not have a ‘proper sign-off’ and I imagine the squirrels will still make me do this next week, somehow, even though we may be on a boat in France at the time.
