...How are you at this rest stop? How did you know I'd be at this rest stop? How did you get all the radio equipment to this rest stop?

*chittering*

Yeah, no matter how many time you insist 'professionalism,' nobody's going to believe you. Anyway, what up, island? It's me, ya girl, Arden Finch, coming at you live from a random rest stop in Louisiana, where the squirrels have successfully tracked me down. It's creepy and I'm not comfortable with this, so I'm just gonna fly through these notes and send them away again, before we're done getting gas and snacks.

No School or Dorms, but a bit of news from Town. There was some kind of Space Battles theme going on, it seems; Magpie Emporium was full of fans and Little Bot had a new weapon, and Steph thought Vi should have one, too. Caleb didn't have an opinion about CGI versus recasting for Space Battles, which, fair, and Ray was giving the workers of Pizza Planet a pep talk about handling things while he and Gray are away for the summer. Space Battles was also being played in the waiting room of the Clinic, but Professor James was busy keeping an eye on the crab.

There was a big get together at Devil's Nest last night, complete with a--you can't get me to say that's a music genre, I don't believe you. Ms. Solo-Fel dropped by for a visit and got caught up on vampire politics. Which probably involved a lot of violence, because vampire politics usually does. After getting a strong whiskey from Mr. Northman, Ms. Beniko and Ms. Solo-Fel talked about how home was always crazy, before chatting with Mr. Jack about his band's tour. Dean Skywalker was lured in by...that genre of music...and talked about one of his other grandchildren with Ms. Solo-Fel before insisting that Mr. Cade was lying and he was not covering drinks. Ms. Beniko somehow missed Dean Skywalker's correction, and Mr. Jack teamed up with Mr. Cade to argue with him about it. Even Cal was there, saying that...that music...had made him homesick, and Ms. Blake just wanted to know if this was going to be a weeklong thing or what.

Anyway, I'm out of notes and also out of time, so enjoy the rest of your day and normally I'd play something thematic, but I'm not having that search term in my algorithm, so ask your closest Jedi about their...music from home, I guess.

Bye!

Tino (who still wasn't telling where he'd been and Kitty hated it) looked very confused when Kitty got there before him and put on a Space Battles movie on in the back room.

"What?" she said. "Don't you dare think it's just one day."

He didn't question it further.

The Devil had not been at the Nest for far too long. Luckily, that sad, sad time was coming to an end.

Lucifer chased off the jizz musicians with a look as he strode into the bar, and then clapped that same Look onto Tiny. Tiny did not budge.

"What," Lucifer said, "Was that."

Tiny shrugged.

Lucifer let out an annoyed sigh. "You know, I think this place could take a renovation, honestly," he said. "Perhaps a few more tall video screens with images of strippers on them, or something."

The mood could only improve.

"So," Lucifer said, "Is there any difference between fishing in Chile and fishing here? Are the fish bitier, perhaps? Or more boring? Would you rate Fandom above or below Chile on the boredom scale where it comes to fishing? I have hard time telling the difference, personally."

Yes, Lucifer did still enjoy inviting him along on Duke's fishing trips. And yes, he did still sort of trash talk fishing by proxy while doing it.

But it was a nice morning, and they were having a nice wander along the beach to whatever point Duke had in mind for his next fishing... adventure. And it was nice to be home.

"No, what makes for a good fishing spot?"

He was trying!

There was a live band tonight that Eric had not ordered. Tiny pleaded innocence entirely too quickly for it to be real, either. "What kind of music do they play?" Eric asked, looking confused by the plasticky blue elephant...thing playing a keyboard.

Tiny told him.

"It is not called that."

Tiny grinned.

"Well, that's probably why they were so cheap," Eric said.

Tiny told him how much they cost.

"Well, that's probably why it's coming out of your paycheck," Eric amended.

Welcome to the Devil's Nest. Enjoy the jizz band.

There was a Space Battles movie on the TV in the waiting area of the clinic and Stabby had a laser sword. Thankfully it was a toy laser sword or everyone would likely be dead already.

"Morning," Stark said, dropping off some space themed donuts and coffees at the desk as he arrived.

He was expecting a quiet day. But you never knew around here. Anything could happen.

The clinic was open, the crab was swinging a toy laser sword with abandon, and the alien was in.

"What are you talking about? Of course you guys can manage without me! And I'll be back in a few, uh...months, at most. I don't really know. It's...family stuff. Listen, don't worry about it. Worry about serving up delicious pizza to hungry people. When in doubt, ask yourselves, 'What would Raiden do?'"

And then maybe...don't do that. Use your best judgment.

"...they may not have had a legal requirement to get the family's permission, but it seems to me they had a moral obligation to do so. Caleb, what do you think?"

The vet tech and one of the volunteers had been going on for some time about the Space Battles franchise which had segued into using CGI to bring back characters who's original actors had passed on rather than re-casting them.

Caleb had not gotten around to Space Battles. It was too big. Likewise Mr. What.

"I'll be honest I'm not sure I understood most'a that. But respectin' the family's wishes seems t'me t'be the right thing t'do."

The kitten he'd befriended, who had managed to get itself adopted by the new momma cat meowed for attention. "I think she agrees."
giveittoyoursister: (Curious)
There were a lot of Space Battles fans in the store today, and one of them had given Little Bot a toy laser-sword.

Which meant that rather than working, Vi was mostly watching Little Bot gleefully rolling around the store brandishing his new weapon at anyone who was stepping out of line.

Oh, again? Just... just the one note? You know, maybe you guys need to keep the drinking down if you want to find gossip these days.

*angry chittering*

Okay, okay. Let me read it and you can get back at it. Ahem. Hello, this is Tony Stark, letting you know that I spent time with my husband yesterday. Which honestly feels very egotistical to report on, but here we are.

Everyone, have a good day now that you know that important news.

Steve was ignoring the dogs' obstacle course today in the ballroom today, heading for the human-sized equipment.

The dogs, who had followed him in expecting something more them-centric, took to tugging on chew toys instead of going through their obstacle course while Steve went through a workout, then started a run on the special Steve-proof treadmill.

Not a bad way to spend a weekend, assuming nothing went horribly wrong in the next few days.

Good morning, everyone! The squirrels have dragged me here to let you all know that Detective Watts was preoccupied with something under his desk and gnome-related theft, and received a coffee delivery. That is the only thing they bothered to report from yesterday, so congratulations to everyone else on their privacy! Farewell until next week, I suppose!

It was the kind of day where Watts was eyeing the space under his desk- so perfectly suited for a nap- with longing.

But instead of napping he was answering phone calls about gnomenapping. It seemed the lawn gnomes (not to be confused with the Portalocity gnomes) were at it again, stealing bits and bobs from people's kitchen junk drawers and the like.

Fandom Island crime, everyone.

I don't think that was entirely necessary, Leroy.

*chittering*

Well, maybe your repeated playing of that song has something to do with why you didn't find much news yesterday.

*chittering*

Well, other than Watts and Steven having lunch, of course. Do you have anything else?

*long, guilty silence*

I promise I won't tell Cara. That's it for today, everyone! Have a good weekend!

There's no notes? Because nothing happened yesterday?

You have until the count of ten, Leroy.

Two.

The children visiting always left Steven in a thoughtful mood. Hard not to ponder what their dads' lives were like. Steven didn't ask, of course. It wasn't the children's job to report on such things and dimensions had so much difference even when the changes seemed small it wasn't worth asking.

Still. Steven couldn't help but wonder what if?

Which made him glad for the distraction of work to keep his mind off of things.

He was behind the welcome desk if anyone needed him.

Good morning. Wednesday, again. Hopefully a more pleasant Wednesday than the last. If last Wednesday was pleasant for you…I don’t want to hear about it, thank you. Especially you, Leroy.

Today was quiet. It often is after these weeks and weekends. And there’s no classes at the school and there’s nothing from the dorms, sorry Porg. So, a few notes from the town.

Sairis was at the Infinite Consortium, where there was still a glowy skull on display and potions and charms on offer.

Bucky opened up the movie theatre with some movies with lots of blood. Jesse was drawn in by the bloody horror movies and…there was a small cat in the theatre, for some reason.

And finally Kitty was subjected to tales of Tino’s children before I arrived and…told her about my own impossible boy from the weekend.

That’s all I have from yesterday for today.

Grossly, Tino had apparently cleaned up last week, and then spent the weekend dealing with a kid from each of those people. So that was a fun thing to find out about!

No, actually, it wasn't, and Kitty wanted to go back to being the person she was before that.

Sairis had spent the early part of last week antsy and needy, and then had decided to head somewhere remote and meditate. Instead, when he'd gotten to the top floor of the dorms, he had been eaten by a metal cabinet that Google informed him was a locker and was not supposed to eat people. Apparently he'd missed his finals, but they mostly hadn't happened.

This place was strange.

Today, though, he was back at the shop. The glowy dragon-head thing was still in the window, but the sign next to it now read, Don't ask, I just like it.

Next to that was another sign: Potions and charms available: Calm, fertility or infertility, privacy available - others by request.

Sairis was spending his time looking up what that glowy dragon-head thing actually was, but he could answer other questions!
