Goooood morning, everyone! It is me, Tahani al-Jamil, and if you don't have your prom dress by now you are in trouble.

I shall be in green, so no one match me.

*chittering*

Of course it's a reasonable request to make, Leroy. Onto our classes! Dinosaurs talked about--you may have guessed already--dinosaurs, this time from the Cretaceous period. And no one has been eaten by a dinosaur yet. Where do I register my complaint about that? Maybe that's the final exam? Photography was assigned their final project, Art made pinatas, and we watched a film in Tea class.

In town, Shunsui reminded Apu at T&C that they always wear pink on Wednesdays, Irene was researching bunny care at her...rather specific...shop, Nancy refused to answer the phone at her place of business, and the heat wave has melted Tiny's ski resort at the Devil's Nest. Connor and Cutter had a Chinese takeaway dinner date, and Caritas featured Summer rightfully judging Tino for pretending to read a book that didn't even have words in it. Goose asked for double shots now that he was 21, which brings up a score of questions about how many double shots he drank before that, Annie was concerned about the mixed messages Summer was sending by going to prom with Stark while also telling him she needed space, and Stark brought Summer a plushy gelatinous cube before they talked about what crime against food class they would teach this summer. Stark also learned about Steven's adventures in Passover observations before they depressed each other talking about loneliness and family. And that was still on Steven's mind when he talked with Summer about found family and Marc having an ex-girlfriend who is apparently a real person!

*chittering*

Well, I am a little surprised, frankly, Leroy. And then Steven and Watts were talking about how much they liked dating each other and everyone around them needed to get their cavities checked.

*chittering*

I am summarizing, Leroy. Watts was happy to be finished with Passover eating restrictions and that admission sent him and Summer into a discussion about religions and joining cults. Do not join a cult. Unless it's a really interesting cult, like Scientology. And that's enough wisdom for today! See everyone at prom tomorrow!

Good morning everyone, it's Tahani al-Jamil to brighten your dull little lives with all of the gossip from yesterday!

*chittering*

No, I don't see why I should be nicer. In classes, Haiku explored the works of Kobayashi Issa, Treasure and British History watched movies, and Cara won the Paintball-but-this-time-with-arrows day.

In town, Sakaki was very enamoured by the banana beds installed at Furnado for the animals, there was a wine and cheese carousel at T&C, and Connor was playing with the fish at the museum. Are they stuffed fish? I thought live fish were at aquariums?

*chittering*

I don't pay that much attention, frankly. I go exclusively to art museums. Firefighter Eddie was texting at the fire station instead of doing real work, and Jon called the police station about a potential break-in at his apartment building, but it was just Travis, Summer, and Stark the koala who then became Stark the naked, yet still rainbow coloured human. And Tattoos was there to follow up on the police report so I'm sure that wasn't horribly embarrassing for everyone involved, but honestly, this is what people listen to the radio for so thank you for your service.

The garnishes were missing at the Devil's Nest, Rey was enjoying shark-themed music at the Perk and then shark-related conversation with Sidon, and there was a puppy meet-up in the park with Irene's new bulldog Clementine meeting Rosa's dog Anna Pavlova and Dwight's Snoopy.

*chittering*

Oh, and Rosa also acknowledged Dwight's existence. Big day for Dwight, I imagine. Five stopped by Vi's shift to tell her about his brother with tentacles.

*alarmed chittering*

Different brother. And Steph is still a cat. Over at Covent Gardens--the shop here, not the nicer neighbourhood in London--Nell and Steven drank tea and talked about ancient Egypt, and Detective Watts stopped in to thank Nell for becoming friends with Marc. How bad at friendship do you have to be to have a grown adult come in to thank a teenager for it on your behalf? But my dear friend Mark--you might have heard of him, he runs a social media company--also has trouble with connection so perhaps it's something about the name.

I will leave you to ponder that for the week because I am late for mani-pedis with Posh! Byeeeeeeee!

Good morning, everyone! It's me, Tahani al-Jamil, which makes today Tuesday. Let's get to the news of yesterday, shall we?

*chittering*

It's mostly people going to work, I'm told. Thrilling.

In classes, Napping went to Sweden, Paintball had pairs, at least one of which shot each other, Disaster went to the Isle of Ikea, and Pop Culture learned about Pride.

In town, Sakaki was updating the shelter's social media with the antics of their newest puppy, Hot Firefighter Eddie did inventory at the firehouse, and Eliot was rejecting people on Grindr--an excellent pastime. Steven paid Stark a visit at the clinic, where Stark revealed his glee that the dean had done poorly in paintball. And now everyone knows. Steven was also at the museum discussing Pride exhibits with Connor. Dwight and Terrifying Rosa exchanged silent greetings at the Perk, Steph got Vi some new clothes at Magpie Emporium, and Liz stopped into T&C in what I am assured is an adorable new haircut. Finally, Tattoos set the Troopers to drills to be better at tug-of-war, Diego was making donut art at J,GOB, and Eric was yelling at Tiny about the water feature in the axe range at the Devil's Nest.

And that's everything! See you at Shenanigans!

Good morning, everyone, I hope you all enjoyed your lovely bank holiday yesterday.

*chittering*

There were still classes? Well I didn't attend any. Napping went to sleep in nests in California, Disaster taught people to get better at lying, Pop Culture learned about holidays that weren't the one held yesterday--interesting choice--and Paintball was cancelled because of the teachers had to off memorialising others.

In town, T&C was drenched in red, white, and blue, Sakaki was learning about armadillos thanks to one being dropped off at the shelter over the weekend, Connor worked his shift at the museum, and Stark was exploring frozen coffees at the clinic. The firefighters announced a joint fire-police picnic on Saturday and Tattoos added a tug-of-war competition and Leroy, no one can read the notes if they are covered in squirrel drool.

Vi and Steph talked about how much Vi misses her sister--cannot relate--and the Devil's Nest declared it shirtless night every night now that's it's summer. Marc came in--wearing a shirt--and he and Eric talked about fake blood and real killing. Marc and Jaye discussed zombies on the stripper poles at Caritas and now that image is burned into my brain, and Jaye and Eric wondered what would happen if all the males on the island suddenly turned tiny.

*chittering*

Yes, it is a penis thing. Thank you, Leroy. I'm glad that has now been made clear to the entire island. This has been Tahani al-Jamil and I need another trip to Bali to take all of this tension back out of my shoulders.

*Carol of the Bells*
*Carol of the Bells*
*Carol of the Bells*
*CAROL OF THE GODDAMN BELLS and then finally, shouting over Carol of the Freaking Bells, Tahani*

Good morning everyone, and a very merry "almost the end of exams week" to all who are celebrating. I do hope I see you before I jet off to Fiji tomorrow--

*annoyed chittering*

Leroy, Summer would never forgive me if I took you from her. Of course you are not invited. In classes, Maths played a final exam game called Proof, Engineering wrote a final essay, and Modern World prepared students for how to avoid their families this Christmas. Was faking your own death an option? No reason, really.

In town, Astrid dealt with the ding-dong-ditch gremlins, Shunsui was not dealing with Apu's new obsession with pearl necklaces--

*wheezy squirrel laughter*

Octavia was busy on her phone at her shift at the Devil's Nest, Will and Tattoos counted calories at Mooby Land, and Jon wrote Jo a positive report regarding her literature class. And finally, Caritas was serving lemon-themed shots and offering specials for blacksmiths and karaoke singers. Liz and Prompto sang, and everyone else came in to drink, though no one, starting with Rey, was drinking the shot with crab in it.

*chittering*

I know it's spelled with a K, but you're squirrels. You misspelled Summer three different ways here. Rey was wondering how long her boyfriend should stay a parrot before she got worried. I'd say it's brave of you to admit to dating a bird at all, Rey. Rey and Stark aught up on their relatively quiet lives. The music today will definitely fix that for you. Goose and Summer talked about how useful a class on overturning evil galactic empires will be--what--Liz ordered a beer to calm her karaoke nerves, and Prompto was there, also acting like a complete spaz. Dwight told Summer about his mistletoe-related kisses, Miguel asked about lemon in the crab--

*chittering*

krab shots--and Jon was celebrating his class being over. That is very hurtful to us students, Jon. Annie offered to film Summer's bartending skills, and Jessica said hello to Annie after being gone forever. Barry did his boyfriendly duty of being impressed by Summer's cocktail making prowess, and Jessica drank bourbon and didn't sing. New Rosa was inducted into Wednesdays at Caritas, and Lucifer was very excited that he got to go fishing with his boyfriend.

Well, Lucifer is very old, so that explains why he enjoys grandpa activities. Amaya was there for the blacksmith special, and then she and Dwight got into a shot drinking contest.

*pause during which Carol of the Bells continues to play*

So I'm sure a day of music playing is simply delightful to them. Enjoy that!

EMERGENCY, EMERGENCY, EVERYONE'S MOBILES ARE BROKEN AND I CANNOT EVEN TEXT BILL GATES TO COMPLAIN ABOUT IT.

*chittering*

I am not being dramatic. Hand over the notes. I suppose it finally makes sense that they are on paper and not a tablet. In classes, Maths dealt with arithmetic problems by shooting them in spaceships. I wish I could say I was surprised. Engineering went on a field trip, and Yennefer refused to go to class because of the whole shower situation yesterday. I have never related more to a teacher in my entire life.

In town, Astrid wondered where the plants had sourced little plant-sized eggnog glasses from, T&C was dealing was just far too many Christmas trees, Jo might've turned into hot cocoa because she drank more of it at the Perk even though it was coming out the faucets for free in the dorms, and Irene was having a sale on unmentionables at her shop.

*chittering*

I will not be more specific. That's why I called them "unmentionables." Tattoos and Dr. Will had a playdate with guns at the gun store--very normal--Jon did nothing at his house--how is that news?--and Margo learned that throwing mace was heavier than she thought.

Don't you spray mace?

*chittering*

Well, why would I know about medieval weaponry? MY PHONE IS A DUD TODAY. We have a new Rosa who moved in over the diner before heading to J,GOB and meeting Miguel and Alara. Finally, Summer and her Jello shots featured eggnog but not the eggnog that came out of the taps because that's too easy or something. Liz and Dwight sang for free shots, and Dwight needed the alcohol to learn about the pushy mistletoe that shows up each holiday season. Goose got an eggnog shower yesterday, Liz got plied with alcohol before she went to sing, Rey got insight into Summer's Jello making process, and Summer made sure Stark'd had fun at the party on Friday. Miguel told Summer he has pictures of the party but will be using for blackmail. How rude. You sell them to TMZ like a regular person, or you delete them. Everyone knows that. Annie was not pleased about the eggnog problem but Lucifer was handling it better than he did the hats that wouldn't come off. Summer and Jesse decided there should be more Christmas horror movies because they are both broken.

And on that happy note, I am, well, out of notes. Tata, Fandom!

No, thank you, I don't want a soda this early in the morning.

No. Thank. You.

*loooooong pause*

Well, being guilt-tripped by a polar bear was certainly a new experience. I'm quite certain Bono never has this happen. Hello, it's Tahani al-Jamil here and let's get to the news! In classes, Maths had a quiz now that their original teacher has returned with two weeks left in the semester. What a delightful work ethic! Engineering went on a field trip to their teacher's home world, and the Modern World finally got around to explaining airports. They were appalled that you have to take your shoes off to get through security, as they should be. Do you know how many people refuse to get pedicures?!

In town, Astrid was using her phone app to translate what the singing animals from yesterday were saying. Shunsui let Apu carry on with decorating T&C with holiday...ish...lights--go down today to see what I mean--and then you can also see the festive display Irene's shop has up right now.

*chittering*

Of course it's suggestive. It's a sex shop. Illyana was making the singing dolls disappear at the Magic Shop, and Jon expressed his exasperation about them to Jo at the Perk because the dolls apparently all have extremely dirty little mouths, which Jon could understand just fine. Finally, over at Caritas, Summer had shoved all of the dolls into the storage room, so hopefully they didn't just turn into polar bears over night because that could be extremely awkward. Jon complimented Eliot on his singing voice and choice of song, Seivarden made very sure that Summer knows how much she hates December on this island, and Summer got to be the one to tell Billy all about what to expect here at the holidays.

Chaos and at least one shower in eggnog. That's what you can expect. Stark took the dolls in stride as well as whatever shots Summer had made this week, Annie was there for party planning for Friday night--not that I'm going, I'll be in Ibiza for Posh Spice's do--and poor Doctor Will got fortifying alcohol before Summer and Stark explained December in Fandom to him.

At least it's not the mistletoe with boundary issues. Yet.

Summer tried to sell Eliot on crab salad flavored Jello shots--why--and Jesse came to the bar straight from the sewer. Again. Why. Lucifer took one of the crab shots home because he is literally the devil, of course, Goose talked about the weird dolls, and Jon came in and was very unhappy that the dolls were here too.

Well, now they aren't. Now there are bears. Is that really better? This has been Tahani al-Jamil, heading far, far away for the weekend. Farewell!

[personal profile] sexy_giraffe
It's me, Tahani al-Jamil, to spice up your boring little lives with the news, such as it is, of yesterday. In classes, Maths learned about the calculations--see what I did there?--in photography with substitute teacher Prompto. Mr. Gooseman's class explored aerospace engineering,

In town, Astrid worked on Thanksgiving cards to tuck into flower arrangements, Illyana had goblins--you mean gremlins--

*chittering*

Well, when did the goblins get here? I cannot be expected to keep up with the boring, zoological parts of life here. Regardless, Illyana was making something else put up holiday decorations for her. Octavia had 1960s music to keep her company at the Devil's Nest, Jo and Jon talked about how strange it was to be children over the weekend, Amaya stopped by Irene's store to retrieve the mace that tiny Irene had run off with during the weekend, and then--or maybe before--Amaya fixed the Squishy machine at T&C. Dwight and Jon were changing locks at MHA, much to the surprise of some of the tenants like Stark and Goose.

*chittering*

Leroy, "we still have our ways" is a very creepy thing to say. There was a gremlin--not goblin--throwing a fit, and also some pastries at JGOB, so Diego sat down and enjoyed free pastries. He was joined by Tattoos and they both talked for entirely too long about severed hands. The new doctor didn't take "sometimes they just throw things at you" terribly well, and Stark was grateful that this was at least low-key on the scale of terrible things that could be happening.

So the next terrible thing is all Stark's fault. Rosa was heading out of town but not before Dwight brought over coffee and awkward small talk, and Miguel offered to the threaten the Pope if Rosa didn't return. That seems like a very strange person to threaten.

*chittering*

No, I don't actually want any context. Rosa prefers an air of mystery. And on that last note I will also mysteriously leave to do something mysterious that none of you are invited to!

*chittering*

Hush up, Leroy, it is not.

Good morning, it's Tahani al-Jamil and I'm here to brighten your day with the news of yesterday! Let's begin with classes, shall we? Maths learned about measurements with substitute teacher Mr. Amacita and then went out and measured things, and Engineering class learned about civil engineering.

The dorms were quiet--I got rid of last season's clothing, if you must know--and in town, Astrid was incorporating pumpkins into floral decorations, Shunsui was enjoying Thanksgiving-themed candy corn I REGRET NOTHING until he meets new person Billy looking for supplies before he leaves again. Oh, he is terribly new, isn't he? You're not leaving, Billy. Rosa was emailing her fellow teachers about some sort of heist--you get invasively close, squirrels--Jo recovered from the running portion of Maths class with hot chocolate and Eliot discovered the onsen. Anakin and Rey caught up over bear claws about their trips last week.

And that's everything! Have a good weekend.

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy are you here the sun isn't even up.

*chittering*

Do I look like someone who will have an opinion about Daylight Savings Time?

*chittering*

I don't want to be up with plenty of time to get on the bus! Ugh. This is Tahani al-Jamil, we are on vacation and yet somehow here I am, awake and talking to you. Town was very quiet yesterday so we'll just go straight to our trip, shall we? Steve and Tony ignored their chaperoning duties in order to have a picnic. Others, like Stark and Seivarden--not together--woke up and ordered room service. People went to the gym and Steve told Gladio about a vacation where everyone had to share one piece of equipment because they were on a boat. There was another food tour--this time of South Boston--a trip on the Freedom Trail with a few Brits but we held our collective tongues quite adequately, thank you. Amaya was fact-checking the cannon information, much to Dwight's amusement. And then you could also go whale watching, where Dean Skywalker warned everyone not to fall overboard. Was this a problem many were going to have? Perhaps not and Stark made sure to point out that if he did fall over, it was probably the Dean's fault. Well, Sidon wanted to be overboard, so maybe it was a necessary warning after all. Faye was disappointed we weren't catching whales. Our rooms are not big enough for that. If I had a whale, too, I'd have to get rid of all of Alexis' clothes to find room for it.

In the evening, there were even more boating opportunities, this time to watch the sunset while people shot at you with cannons.

*chittering*

Fine. Shot one cannon once. My way is more entertaining. Or you could do a course on chocolate, eat too much and end up at the gym in the early morning hours. Maybe that was just Goose.

That's everything! I'll--ugh--see you on the bus to Hampshire.

*chittering*

New Hampshire. I don't want to go there, either.

Hello, it is Tahani al-Jamil, so that makes today Thursday! Let's get right to the notes today, shall we?

In classes, Maths had their third teacher in as many weeks and this time they learned about fractions. Engineering learned about civil engineering, and Modern Times learned about credit card fraud.

*chittering*

Well, they did.

Jo was sharing her care package from home in the dorms yesterday, which was very kind.


In town, Astrid had an orchid playing a protest song about the moth invasion--I'll pretend that makes sense if the rest of you will--Goose went for a non-cat shaped run, and T&C has a special on lavender soaps--

*chittering*

Oh. Soups. That's a...choice. Liz Sherman has returned to Fandom, so attention people who know who that is. Alara tried her first pumpkin spice latte, Dwight stopped into Irene's shop to gush about his upcoming trip to Boston, and nothing worth noting occuured in Caritas or the Devil's Nest last night. How refreshing!

And I'm done! Have a good day everyone-but-Clare.
sexy_giraffe: (ew no)
[personal profile] sexy_giraffe
Good morning, everyone who isn't Clare Devlin, oh yes, I've learned your name, Kamilah is very displeased with your friend.

In classes, Maths had a substitute teacher--but it was Summer, who's leaving, more about that later--so I suppose that means Ms. Diaz is back next week? Engineering got into the specifics of mechanical engineering, and the Modern World learned about all the exciting updates in women's menstrual products since people used moss or set women on fire and so on.

In the dorms, Alara was flipping channels in the common room to see if something interesting was on--might I suggest skipping my sister Kamilah's unauthorized biography on Netflix? The actress they got for me doesn't do me just at all.

In town, Astrid was sleeping at Covent Gardens, Shunsui decided he didn't care enough about Apu's bad mood to ask, Jo and Dwight commiserated about the advances in telephone technology since their time, and there was no vodka at the Devil's Nest.

And everyone in the world was at Caritas, ask your friends.

*thonk*

OW. Leroy. Everyone who came in wanted to know about the "last chance special"--some, like Seivarden and Goose hoped it meant the end of Jello and not the end Summer. But no, apparently Summer is going to help her Space Mom to lead a revolution or something? As one does? Amaya was more concerned about the content of the shots.

Seivarden and Amaya talked about non-Summer things, Lucifer made fun of Dwight's taste in beer, and there were apologies and awkward silence with Eliot and Jon. All in all, I'd rather here about the Space Mom revolution.

And that's everything! Please excuse me, I have to call my solicitor. Clare.

[OOC: Sorry this is soooo late. It has Been a Day.]
sexy_giraffe: (oh myyyyyyy)
[personal profile] sexy_giraffe
Hello again, it's Tahani al-Jamil which makes today Thursday! We have one more day before our relatives come and ruin everything forever.

*chittering*

I am not being dramatic.

*chittering*

And I will not get you another autograph from my sister, Leroy.

In classes, Maths learned about geometry, Engineering got into mechanical engineering, and Modern Life learned about cell phones.

In town, the flowers were humming lullabies for Astrid, Irene definitely didn't almost shoot a falling light fixture in the...toy shoppe...and Tattoos had to pay Danny in lunch in order to get help with paperwork over at the Trooper Station. The frog baby was painting more pumpkins at the weapons store, Shunsui received an entire itinerary from his guest for the weekend and asked Octavia if he could stow away on her boat instead of dealing with that. At least Annie was excited about her guest?

Eric explained to Octavia that the reason the Devil's Nest is going through so many renovations is because he and Lucifer are giant man-babies.

*chittering*

I'm summarizing. Summer was obsessively checking her phone between Jello shots at Caritas. She talked with Goose about the dates last week--he got set up with Dr. Lecter, who'd taught him as a student, so that's awkward--and then Summer told Stark that last week she'd been dealing with a clone of her mom and stopping a planet being destroyed and sorry, Goose, but her story is better. Rey got more details--Summer's mom has been leading a revolution!!--and then Lucifer told Summer that his therapist is stuck in this universe and not her normal one.

Well, she's a therapist, so hopefully she has, erm, tools to adjust to that? And then Jesse got her generic beer and to hear that Summer can never have a normal dinner with her family. I know that feeling, though not, perhaps, the cloned mother and the revolution parts.

And that's all I have! Please, please don't fawn over Kamilah when she's here. She gets enough of that at home.

Good morning, everyone, it's Tahani al-Jamil again!

In classes, Maths learned algebra, Engineering had a movie day--there are engineering movies?--and Yennefer and Jaskier were very excited about indoor plumbing in Modern World.

In town, Astrid was sketching oleanders at the flower shop, Danny and Tattoos discussed how shifty raccoons were at the Trooper Station, Shunsui was giving discounts at T&C for people who made a hat and Octavia tried to recall if she'd ever worn a hat. Jo was celebrating the end of her classes for the week with hot cocoa at the Perk. Harry came in an apologised for their last encounter, when he thought he was a true crime podcaster. Duke was tinkering away in his tinkering shop.

Caritas had its normal round of dubious shots and its normal collection of dubious people trying them. Jon heard about Summer's background as a Jello-related criminal and got an offer to fly in her spaceship, Lucifer wanted to know how much karaoke actually took place at Caritas before getting entirely too excited to learn ABBA has new music, Jesse was disappointed that the jello shot options were actually making her hungry, and Dwight offered to get his guitar and play if it guaranteed free booze. Lucifer was pleased to see Dwight not horribly murdered--how bad is he with the guitar? Rey refused to drink anything called broken glass--good instincts--and Goose was concerned about that one as well. Kiem was very excited to get free alcohol because he doesn't have class today, and Seivarden couldn't make it because her cat was sad.

...

...

Uh. huh. Lucifer is building a pillow room on a boat, much to Duke's pleasure. Why?

*extended chittering*

Those are extremely comprehensive, um, drawings. Burn them, please.

*chittering*

Oh, good, more sex notes. I love knowing what adults are getting up to. It's not at all inappropriate. Irene opened her shop and got a visit from Danny and Margo, so do with that what you will. I, personally, will immediately forget I knew it.

Goodbyeeeeeeeeeee--
sexy_giraffe: (oh myyyyyyy)
[personal profile] sexy_giraffe
Good morning everyone, it is I, Tahani al-Jamil here with the news of yesterday, where no one was being visibly mad. It's a nice change for us, honestly.

In classes, Maths got their exams returned and they reviewed multiplication and division. Let me make it abundantly clear that I will not be making a habit of going into depth about maths class. Modern World learned about TikTok, and Engineering discussed important milestones in engineering, which makes sense in an engineering course.

Jo was enjoying too much Chinese food--is there ever really too much Chinese food?--in the dorms and in town, T&C was having an ampersand-based sale and I take back what I said before about no one being visibly mad. Dite's has seasonal...products, Goose was checking messages and eating a muffin at J,GOB, and Margo was at the Devil's Nest after having a run-in with the free alcohol at Caritas last week. I barely noticed anything wrong with me, aside from having fabulous nails and Alexis not knowing when Christmas was.

Which, for the record, is not at the end of this month. This is a news program and the facts must be stated. Eliot and Margo talked about what champagne they would have commissioned in their kingdom--I'm sure my dear friend Prince Harry could offer some tips--and then Eliot taught Octavia how to make a Pimm's Cup. And how bold to still be drinking one into September, though I suppose the weather is still warm enough. Nothing as posh as a Pimm's Cup over at Jello shot night at Caritas, of course. Stark thought they sounded better than last week's and then he and Summer talked about the classes they were teaching this semester. Seivarden had figured out the subtle "honey" theme to the shots--which wasn't subtle, it's in all of their names--and said that this week was better than last because she wasn't tied up and stuffed in a closet.

That is a pretty low bar to clear, it's true. Goose was drinking--but not excessively because he'd learned a lesson--and was pleased to be able to finish sentences without pausing dramatically in the middle of them any longer. Summer and Lucifer complained about their fathers and segued into their respective romantic relationships which I am sure is not at all linked. Jesse didn't drink generic beer, which the squirrels tell me is actually really big news, and Summer felt left out because she hasn't fought a giant sentient Mars Bar.

*long pause*

Right. Jon and Summer debated if you were drinking a Jello shot or eating one, and I shall ponder that all week and tell my conclusions next time! Byeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Good morning, everyone, it is I, Tahani al-Jamil, here with another installment of the news to cheer up your dreary, boring lives.

*chittering*

Oh, I'm sure their lives are dreary and boring. Look at them. We didn't have classes because it's the week all of the seniors are moving out and we get their rooms--

*more chittering*

We should get their rooms. Honestly. I need more closet space since Alexis came back "from her hole" and took her room back.

*judgey squirrel silence*

No one asked you, Leroy. No one came into the flower shop to avail themselves of the ten percent coffee-for-Astrid discount. Diego learned that his father passed away--my condolences!--though he doesn't seem all that broken up by it when he told Annie and Five. The inappropriate sexy costumes for Halloween have made a reappearance at Dite's, Octavia was back at the Devil's Nest, and Margo opened up Pick Your Poison--

*chittering*

Which is not a liquor store. Noted. Speaking of liquor, Summer was doing cookie-themed Jello shots at Caritas. Seivarden was asking exactly what made it an "animal" cracker--a very valid question here--and told Summer that she was adding yet another roommate. Stark approved of the cookie theme and he and Summer talked about the dead people who visited them, Irene flirted with Summer, Jesse wondered if Jello interfered with the integrity of the cookie, and Lucifer was back and drinking everything, so I guess that tells us what his state of mind is.

And that's everything! Talk to you next week or at the welcome picnic if I think you're worth my time!

Good morning, everyone, it's Tahani al-Jamil, here once again to brighten your lives with the news of yesterday, most of which involves sleepy people shooting each other with ink that spoiler alert, does NOT come out of linen. Dean Skywalker, expect my dry cleaning bill.

In case you weren't there, the dean decided to arm almost 30 people with guns that shot ink and some people--Alexis--should not have that kind of weaponry. Neither should that felt eagle or Beaker. Stark told Steve with the Shoulders that despite it not being paintball day, he was still going to try to shoot Anakin. I'll leave that to everyone's imagination for how that went. Lana assured Alara that she wouldn't break the ink gun, Dwight was upset his shirt was too small except that he'd taken Alexis', and Prompto made Clare's weapon more lethal which helped her not at all. Travis wondered if yellow ink would show up on blue shirts and Stark suggested just shooting at white shirts instead. Then Travis was going to hide behind Dwight, who encountered gremlins for the first time because of course the dean had armed them, too.

In town, Shunsui received texts from Octavia while he worked his shift at T&C and I am deeply concerned about how close the squirrels were to learn that detail. Astrid was offering 10 percent off for anyone who brought her coffee at Covent Gardens, and Dwight came with coffee and left with plants. Summer discovered Tino trying to break the record for the world's longest Jaegerbomb train. Oh, Tino. No. Don't. Seivarden came to ask if Jaegerbombs actually explode and to invite Summer to binge watch some sort of alien entertainment. Rey told Summer that she wasn't having a bad feeling about whatever she feels coming this weekend so that's...strange and not reassuring. Stark also thinks the feeling is familiar.

WHAT FEELING. I FEEL NOTHING.

Hmph. This is Tahani al-Jamil and I'm sure it's just adults being strange. Talk to you next week unless I have a pedicure!

Why I am here?

*chittering*

Because it's funny to confuse Jaskier? Very well, I'll play along. This is Tahani al-Jamil with the news of yesterday. Which was Friday and I definitely remembered that. In classes, Food Photography took pictures of Peppery Daggerquill Rice, Cupcakes worked with soda-flavored treats, and 2Paint2Ball teamed up in pairs before shooting each other with paint. You're all terribly odd.

In town, there was a miscommunication at T&C--it was not National Root Beer Soup Day--Karolina and Beau are moving away, and Dwight went for a swim in the ocean.

And that's everything! Saturdays are easy!

Good morning, everyone! It is Tahani al-Jamil back again with your latest news.

*aggrieved chittering*

No, I don't know why Loretta got a GoPro. I didn't even know her name was Loretta. Moving on to important, non-squirrel matters now, Dean Skywalker was back in the park being mad in front of groups again. This time it was making Human Ice Cream Sundaes by throwing ice cream and various toppings at designated victims Troy and Faye. I'd say I'm sorry I missed this but I'm not remotely sorry to have missed this. And speaking of ice cream, yesterday people got stuck inside the ice cream shop.

*chittering*

Yes, which has new ice cream flavors. Thank you for your comprehensive reporting. And Anakin got stuck there and that's why he was late for Shenanigans. Alexis was worried being late for her Uber would mess up her customer star rating--it will--Rosa was happy enough to have breakfast ice cream, as was Alara, and Ben declared it the best day ever, aside from his wedding and the birth of his children.

Ben needs higher standards for best. Five was not happy to be there--but is Five ever happy? Really? Unless he's tasering his brother?

Apu was taking a monkey to lunch at T&C--you can't see my face but it is very judgmental--

*chittering*

Apparently you can see Loretta later if you wish to see my judgmental face. Astrid was adding hole-related art to the postcards she sells at the flower shop, and Summer left Caritas in Tino's semi-capable hands so she could go to Rey's birthday party. Everyone chatted, of course--Jaskier made Silver assure him that the Western saloon holosuite mixup could happen to absolutely anyone--and Danny told Tattoos that all of the glitter better be cleaned up when the party was finished. I'm certain that did not happen. Annie and Danny--oh, that rhymes!--wondered if this Olde West Saloon had sarsaparilla, which Annie likes and Danny thinks is vile. Tattoos learned from Liam that #NotAllRaccoons has gone viral and that's just...how do raccoons even know about social media?

*chittering*

That tells me nothing. How would mice know either?

Summer brought Jello shots to the party, much to Cade's delight. Who's Cade? And then everyone stopped over to say hello to the birthday girl. Summer assured Rey that she could be very low key--lies--and Rey pretended to be disappointed that Silver wasn't wearing his cowboy costume from Halloween to properly appreciate the saloon theme of the night. Annie told Rey that sometimes people celebrating their 21st birthday can turn the event into an entire month of parties--Bono does that when he's turning 43. He's that person--and Anakin and Rey looked forward to their Friday training sessions. I'm assuming it's because the Dean is poorly socialized. Oh, speaking of poorly socialized, Tattoos took this moment of a birthday party to talk about meditation and sniping. What. Is. Wrong. With. You. Stark was surprised there was so much glitter, but Rey said that the island seemed to generate it for parties and they both agreed it was better than making terrible foods to feed to Captain Rogers while hanging out in a hole.

I still don't think there was really a hole. Liam was apologizing for the hole to Rey and Rey said it was fine because they had a bowling alley which only reinforces this ridiculousness. Nothing is made better by a bowling alley. Jaskier came by to say that the saloon wasn't entirely on purpose, but Rey loved it anyway because it was her first birthday party ever. Oh, that's even more tragic than loving bowling alleys.

And on that sad note, I'm out of news! Have a lovely week, Fandom!

It is I, Tahani al-Jamil, here in my amazing suite--students, trust me, take this opportunity to stretch out! Expand your rooms! Explore the space! Well, it's that or hear more about holes and I for one am over this entire thing.

Teachers, if you are listening, I had computer issues and couldn't make it work for classes!

*dubious chittering*

Shut up, Leroy.

Since yesterday was normally Shenanigans, but even Dean Skywalker--assuming he's still here--didn't put us into the park, there is very little to discuss. Summer made it to Caritas and plied Five with alcohol while he vowed revenge against his brother Diego after Diego escaped from being chained to radiator.

*long pause*

Well. Thank you, Five, for making my family look extremely well adjusted. Which we are. Especially compared to you. Diego was in the police station yesterday, along with Liam, when Tattoos tackled a raccoon and brought it in for questioning. Speaking of not well adjusted...someone should probably check up on him.

But Liam and Diego indulged in his crazy, along with Kitty and Miguel who I'm assuming followed along for the potential entertainment value, and we all learned that--

*chittering*

...the raccoons are led by a Trash King who lives in the preserve and the holes are caused by an app. Go home, Leroy, you're drunk. I am going to continue redecorate my room. Byeeeeeeee.
sexy_giraffe: (i have a question)
[personal profile] sexy_giraffe
Good morning, Fandom, it is I, Tahani al-Jamil, here with the news of yesterday!

*chittering*

Oh, thank you, Leroy! I do love this color on me.

*chittering*

Of course it's not Alexis'. And even if it was, it's much more suited to my colouring. It was positively wasted in her closet. If it had been in her closet. Which it wasn't.

*dubious chittering*

No one asked you. Let's move onto the notes, shall we?

Dean Skywalker had us all meeting in the park again yesterday, despite the problem with holes that I haven't seen. If everyone's falling in all over the place, where is the evidence? I think people are just going on vacation and everyone is overreacting.

*chittering*

Oh, wait. Rey "fell in a hole"--there were sarcastic air quotes there, in case you couldn't hear them--and so the little green frog child in the pod is now Faye's to watch. I would like to state that I am not qualified to watch anyone. And I don't think there was really a hole.

Back to the park. We all played whack-a-mole by hiding in inflatable holes and jumping up and down to capture balls while Jaye and I smacked everyone with inflatable mallets. It was quite enjoyable, at least for Jaye and I. Clare and Belle wondered if the Dean had more inflatable mallets for everyone--no, just for Jaye and me because we were special--and Tattoo Steve asked Anakin if he had contact information for the donut raccoons. Who would want to contact a raccoon?

*chittering*

Exactly. Squirrels are much nicer. The dean sent an email to the faculty telling them they had to stop using the fake holes as excuses not to hold class--

*irritated chittering*

I'm extrapolating. But then he had to help Bob find a way to type because Bob is a hologram or a ghost and honestly, I haven't paid that much attention. Tattoos took his complete lack of raccoon information and went back to the police station and just started...kidnapping raccoons or something? You're very cute, Tattoos, but this seems a tad unhinged.

Shunsui believes that we should all nap more and avoid holes that way and I must say, that's a very compelling argument. We should also use more essential oils. Lemongrass is just so calming, isn't it? Tattoos, that is definitely a hint aimed at you.

Summer was in Caritas with her usual jello shots, and Annie came by to make sure she was still here. It's Wednesday. Of course Summer was at Caritas. Jesse thought that maybe the island is doing a bit of rearranging and that's why the buildings are moving around. Frankly, we didn't need a bowling alley anyway. Ugh, so tacky. And sticky. Miguel wanted to know what Summer knows about the situation because Summer is some kind of hole expert? And Tattoos--I am tired of reading about you today, Tattoos, calm down--was there for a drink.

And that's all the news I have. If you're hungover and don't want to go anywhere for a while, just admit that. Don't pretend you fell in a hole.

This is Tahani al-Jamil back yet again with news from yesterday's ridiculousness. Fortunately, I have not been joined by anyone, so let that be a sign to you, Five, not to just show up.

Ever.

Never showing up again would be fine.

Dean Skywalker's shenanigan was fairly straightforward, if odd, yesterday: teams worked together to dress a gremlin in the latest fashions! Well, that's what my team did. I don't know about what everyone else got up to.

*chittering*

One dressed their gremlin to look like the dean? Bold choice.

In town, Octavia came to T&C in time to admire their flamingo decorations, tensions were rising between the roses and the rose-shaped succulents at the flower shop, and over at Caritas, Summer was making shots and judging the name suggestions of a random bar generator. Seivarden threated to put up embarrassing birthday party footage of Summer up on Tiktok, Rey and Stark were both there to talk about Summer's party even if I wasn't there, so it couldn't have been that great. Just ask the Spice Girls! And Faye comforted Stark--

*excited air horns*

Dear Lord. She was very sad you lot had covered him in a bucket full of glitter yesterday, which I must say explain the state of this room. Faye was also glad and slightly surprised that Summer had survived her birthday party.

And that's everything today! I'm going to work on getting glitter off of silk, thanks every so much for that, Leroy.

TAHANI: Hello, everyone, it is I, Tahani al-Jamil, here to brighten your days with the gossip of yesterday and also with whatever Dean Skywalker tortured you with. I missed it by scheduling a hair appointment at that time. You should all follow my lead.

*blooping teleport sound*

Oh, look, a visitor! )
sexy_giraffe: (Default)
[personal profile] sexy_giraffe
Good morning, everyone! It's Tahani again, here with all of the news of yesterday, which makes much more sense than last week's notes did. It also has much less shirtlessness and kissing, so that's a bit disappointing.

In the park, Anakin divided everyone into teams and then we had to chase down balloons and stomp on them and someone owes me money to get goop out of my adorable Prada sandals. Barry and Summer were up in the stands making bets on our misfortune, Clare told Travis that her terrible bug shirt wasn't terrible because she hoped the dean could learn to be a better person through positive reinforcement. I don't think that works on him, Clare. Team Ugly Pirate Shirt won the day, even though Wanda was hungover and Dwight had a problem with balloons popping. Team Bugs But It Was Really Cars came in dead last, probably because the final balloon was stuck so high in a tree Travis considered getting the first truck--fire cart?--out to reach it.

In town, Shunsui got in a nap at work, Astrid was pretty certain there was a guitar-playing orchid somewhere in the shop even if she couldn't find it, and the Devil's Nest had a surfing theme to its music for Octavia's shift after she tried to learn to surf. Diego and Annie are moving in together--that's exciting if you're old--and Five and his girlfriend? You've written girlfriend here?

*dubious chittering*

I don't understand it either. Five and Dolores checked in on Diego and Annie who'd had a very busy week of Nazi punching and getting injured and arrested, apparently. And finally in Caritas, Summer learned that Tino had sex last night, and so congratulations, Tino. Now everyone knows. Summer was under the mistaken impression that the words 'ketchup chaser' would make her meatloaf shot more appealing. She invited Stark to her birthday party next week, and then Faye asked Stark about why the squirrels had thrown glitter on him yesterday.

*so much chttering*

I didn't catch a word of that. Travis came in, passed on the meatloaf shot--wise--and showed Summer pictures of his puppy, and Faye told Summer she's seen that odd helmeted man's face last week! He looks just like his child, so green with huge ears. And Summer made a deal with the devil to have an epic birthday, which I'm sure will have zero fallout at a later date because I've never seen a film or read a book in my entire life.

*chittering*

Of course that was sarcasm. I've seen many, many films! This is Tahani al-Jamil and I'll talk to everyone next week.

[personal profile] sexy_giraffe
Yesterday was exhausting, and yet here I am to deliver the news to you! I am rather heroic, I think. This is, of course, Tahani al-Jamil with the news.

*dead air*

I was told there would be a fanfare like Troy and Astrid get.

*sound of squirrel halfheartedly playing a kazoo*

Well. That's better than nothing. Barely. Let's head to the park first as usual, shall we? It was Field Day. People arrived and mingled: Silver was there to enjoy his girlfriend competing when she wasn't turning into a princess, a barista, or an animal. Travis was in his full firefighter uniform and Beaker was insulted because he hadn't set anything on fire yet, and then Travis and Stark got kind of flirty even though Stark was a woman at the time, and that led to kissing and bouts of shirtlessness. The volunteers arrived with varying degrees of enthusiasm. Stark reacted by removing his mask and glowing everywhere, which was very impressive to the small green kid, and he and Faye got very close until Faye turned into a fairy. They decided to blame Anakin. Then we all had to do games even as people turned into children and birds and jumped through windows and fell asleep on beds and pulled weapons.

In dorms, Harry was flying a broom inside the second floor common room. Belle was very impressed with his flying until he tried to kiss her. Clare and Belle got into a fight about a book, and the book made an appearance again as Clare was angry that Harry's flying was interrupting her reading time, especially since she sat in American chocolate pudding at the park during the day. I'm going to assume it was because of a game and not some sort of life choice. Harry was much more concerned about Sakaki being bit by a cat than Sakaki was, and Clare was on about the pudding she had to sit in again. Harry kept kissing Five and then falling asleep and there is a word for that, Harry, but I don't think it necessitated Five pulling weapons on you. And Belle and Five hugged and I have some squirrels here with glitter flags who are very excited right now. And finally Nell was making it turn into a meadow as she sat in the common room, which might have bothered Lana more if she hadn't turned into a weird volcanic dog.

And in town, Shunsui was drinking sake at T&C--understandable--and Astrid was full of ennui at the flower shop. I'm certain that didn't last. Annie was getting Barry to remove a tracking device from her arm and it made Diego pass out, and Wayne opened his new shop only to have Travis show up with a chainsaw and then ogle him when Wayne went shirtless. Hannibal arrived as a one-eyed pirate and then turned into a cat and so, welcome to Fandom, Wayne. We are not on powerful narcotics, though I can see how you may believe that. There was yelling at the Trooper Station, but it's Danny and Tattoos, so that's not all that unusual? The shirtlessness might be, and the horse definitely was. And Travis came into the Trooper Station with a chainsaw too--Travis, stop it with the chainsaw--and started out complaining and ended up trying to kiss Danny.

Over at Caritas, there was more chaos. Seivarden and Summer got into a fight after Seivarden tried to kiss her twice, Stark kept taking off his mask and glowing at Summer, who was strangely okay with that? And Rey was reassuring and randomly armed for Stark, too. Rey and Summer were very emotional at each other--at least when Summer would stay still and in the same outfit--and Wanda tried to hug and kiss Summer for a PB&J shot, which seems...an excessive reaction. Barry decided to blame Tino for why he was a pony, then a dog, then a child, and made sure to tell Jesse his theory. Jesse, though, was pretty blase despite turning into a bird in the middle of a bar.

Well. That was certainly the most drama-filled day we've had in a while. Keep kissing random strangers, everyone! I'll see you next week.

[personal profile] sexy_giraffe
Good morning, everyone, it's Tahani al-Jamil again, which means that today is Thursday. And that means yesterday was the weekly Ridiculousness in the Park, which we'll get to right now because it was appalling.

*angry chittering*

Not at all because we had to act like squirrels! Because I lost most of my height and that is completely unacceptable! Why did I lose most of my height you, dear listener who is bright enough to not go anywhere near the park on a Wednesday, ask? Because Barry GAVE ANAKIN SKYWALKER A SHRINK RAY. Fortunately, Tattoo Steve was there to ask Barry why he would do such a thing, and the answer was 'because it was that or turning everyone into squirrels' and I feel that just leads to more questions.

But we were turned very short and then we had to wear ugly shirts and tails and then we had to run through an obstacle course--my lap included Leroy shaking us down for information or rum--

*smug chittering*

--and so congratulations to Team Bird Feeder. They won rum and walnuts.

*SOME SERIOUSLY EXCITED SQUIRRELS, SOUND OF STAMPEDE*

...and I'm all alone in the booth. Jessica tried to get Anakin to delete the photo of her that he took--he took photos of everyone--but he wasn't intimidated because he was a meter and a half taller than she was.

Shunsui was taking a nap after signing a single card at T&C. That's the sort of work ethic I just...cannot understand. My parents would kill me. There was an isolated indoor thundershower at the flower shop yesterday, Danny was visited by Tattoos at the Trooper Station before he popped back to being his correct size and that might have been the highlight of Danny's year, and then all of the adults poured into Caritas to complain about being small. Perhaps that was just Stark. Several people were there to celebrate World Redhead Day--really? We celebrate gingers now? Let me text Prince Harry and let him know--

*dead air*

There. Tisarwat was there to drink the worst Jello shot on purpose and Breq was there to do the same on Seivarden's recommendation and oh no. Noooo. Rey questioned the logic of having to buy Summer a shot that she'd made in her own bar just because of her hair color--gingers are notoriously tricky--and Stark told her about getting shrunk and so Rey was glad to have missed the park. Lucifer was explaining how Duke's birthday was ruined because Octavia turned into a raccoon--rescheduling is perfectly acceptable and thank you, Summer, for pointing that out, and Jesse finally tried an alcohol-free Jello shot which is, basically just Jello, right? Am I missing something important?

Maybe I'll look into later, but probably not. I just got the June edition of Cosmo. I'll be back next week! Stay tall, everyone!

[personal profile] sexy_giraffe
Good morning, everyone, it is me, Tahani al-Jamil, here to tell you all about the ridiculousness in the park and everything else that occurred yesterday!

We'll start in the park, though. Summer and Barry talked before the event began--mostly about Summer's cat--and then Dean Skywalker called names and I had to wear polyester socks that looked like meat!

*chittering*

Of course that was the most important part of what happened. We were placed in four teams of five and each given matching pairs of hideous socks for team unity or something similar--Tattoo Steve and Wanda started talking about socks and then moved on to talking about Steve With the Arms, who is a friend from Wanda's work--and only Duke seemed to understand the depth of my feelings about the socks we had received. Stark and Faye wondered if this event was set up for the dean to punish them in particular and honestly, I wouldn't put it past him. Then we all had to lay on the ground with our ugly socks in the air, get a hugely heavy container of water placed on them and take our socks off until Sakaki tipped the whole thing over.

At least that's what happened to my team. I presume the winners--Team Chicken Toes--were rather more successful, but no one walked away dry. Stark, at least, was deeply unhappy about this and promised to make up for it in paintball class, which the dean seemed not at all worried about?

In town, Shunsui was using the quiet parts of his shift at T&C to work on his writing, Astrid worked at the flower shop but moved her lunch break to allow her to also do the shenanigans--that was an error yesterday--and Tattoo Steve made Danny laugh at the Trooper Station by being entirely soaked from the ridiculous activity the dean set up for us. The Devil's Nest was quiet last night, giving Octavia plenty of time to snack on fruit, but despite Summer's frankly horrifying mayonnaise shot, there were people in Caritas. She even got Seivarden to try one!

Oh, Seivarden. Love yourself more than that. Stark pivoted from complaining about the frozen baked bean popsicle--three words that should never be together--in Summer's Tuesday class to wondering if we should make jellybean cupcakes on Friday and I say yes, please. Nothing terrible had happened to Lucifer, though he did learn that Summer beat up a version of himself on live television and I really think the news is just very, very odd today. And Jesse learned that Summer and Barry met doing shenanigans last year and that's why Summer loves them so much.

That's very sweet. We're just going to stop on that note. Have a good week, everyone! Burn your ugly socks if they can even catch fire.

[personal profile] sexy_giraffe
Good morning, everyone, it is I, Tahani al-Jamil, back by popular demand to bring a ray of sophistication and sunshine into your small and dreary lives!

*chittering*

Of course they wanted me back, don't be absurd. And speaking of absurd, I'm telling you all about Wednesday, so we have whatever Dean Skywalker has dreamed up to torture us with this time. Fortunately for me, my name was not called, but that wasn't the case for many of you and so you all got to run a relay race around the island. People arrived, and then Dean Skywalker read out his list of contestants, which confused some of the new people. Yes, he calls you even if if you don't want to play. In fact, I think he can tell when you don't want to play and calls you first. Sakaki was being outsmarted by her cat shirt--not a smashing start, Sakaki--and Stark introduced Travis to the wonderful concept of blaming Dean Skywalker for everything. Then the three teams had to three-leg-race to the Surf Shop--why do we have a surf shop?--pass along a bellyboard and a hilariously terrible shark hat to a teammate who then had to get to Chilly Boulder and drink an entire milkshake as fast as possible. They passed the board and hat to two teammates who had to do Burpees and run to the dock where another teammate had to paddle from the dock to the causeway. The final teammates had to race back to the park wearing bowling shoes and carrying a bowling ball, and then they all had to join together to form three human pyramids.

*long sigh*

I wish I could say this was as strange as that man will get.

In town, Astrid was making a daisy crown at the flower shop and not participating in shenanigans, Octavia went to T&C to tell Shunsui all about her vacation in San Diego--surely not all about, she strikes me as quite taciturn--and then she opened up the Devil's Nest in the evening. Summer at Caritas was offering up a free shot to everyone who participated in the shenanigans, but one of those shots included pulled pork and tuna together and I don't think free is enough reason to eat that, frankly.

*chittering*

Seivarden tried it? Oh. Oh, I'm so sorry to know that. Annie complimented Summer on the other flavors of shots and they made plans for sangria night today, and Jessica was happy to see Annie back, but in a not-trying-too hard way. Stark and Annie complained about the shenanigan shirts--they were particularly gauche today--and wondered if Dean Skywalker would add quicksand to a different week.

*long pause*

Well, now he will, and I apologise for putting that thought out there. Stark was also very concerned about the pork and tuna shot--because he is smart--and Summer and Jessica talked about Jessica's class today. That seems...wholesome. Summer learned about Lucifer's vacation, and Jesse was more interested in why the zombie band was going through a Jamaican music phase.

Jamaican music and tuna shots. I'm getting an image of the vibe last night, and I am nooooot loving it.

Alas, that is all the news I have to share! Be terribly interesting next Wednesday so I can be the first to know, alright? This is Tahani, signing off!
sexy_giraffe: (Default)
[personal profile] sexy_giraffe
Good morning, everyone! It's Tahani al-Jamil with the news of yesterday to bring you a brighter tomorrow!

It's not as catchy as Summer and Troy's song, is it?

In classes, Rosa taught everyone how to avoid a hangover, Dr. Aphra tried to get us eaten in her class, Guiding the Powerful introduced their new female king to the court, and Anakin had Nina drop by during his office hours.

In town, Lucifer and Duke were playing 80s music--I love oldies!--at the Devil's Nest, Astrid was wondering if all the forget-me-nots in the flower shop were supposed to remind her of something, Tisarwat was mostly enjoying the music at her shop, and Miles was making art in the warehouse district. Over at Caritas, Tino was already decorating for the holidays. Rosa objected. Kitty met a Jessica Jones who was not the one she'd heard of back in her New York--that's still peculiar to say--and Jessica and Rosa exchanged almost no personal information, which pleased them both very much.

And that's everyting! See you at the assembly.
