Fandom Radio, Friday, August 31, 2007

Sep 01, 2007 15:17

"Live from WTFH Pirate Radio studios in downtown Fandom, it's Friday night with your host, Hades!" *applause sound effect* "It's a night of goodbyes getting ready for tomorrow's hellos. That's right, new kids tomorrow. Hey squirrels, make sure there's plenty of booze for Vala. Anyway, let's get this over with.



Class: Some of Us Have It, Some of You Don't

None! It's that week where you all do even less than usual. But there's news. Hey, how come no one filled me in on this? Zoe, I had to find out from the squirrels that Harriet Jones is the new Dean of Students? We could have brainstormed. I had ideas.

Aaaand there might have been other stuff going on, but the squirrels were drunk again. Here's their voicemail."

School Life: Sayonara, Auf Weidersen, Adios, Hit the Road Jack

On the roof this morning, A.J. the weird artist kid painted. He was painting the roof? Come on! Someone get this guy for defacing school property already! Oh, but it's okay, because apparently he's not happy with the painting, or so he told River. Annie stopped by to watch and confront him about a distinct lack of feelings. Jeff was there and wearing pants, guess that's important, and he dissed and dismissed A.J. the weird artist kid's painting. Oh the teenage drama. You can taste it in the air. Or maybe that's rum-flavored popcorn. It's hard to tell.

In the second floor common room, Andrew made funnel cake. Is that anything like funnel web cake? I love funnel web cake. It's a little furry, but it's got a great bite to it. Buffy met Andrew who already knew her, but a different 'her'. The English language is stupid, just so we're clear. Adam and Andrew talked about no classes (cheer!) and Andrew's date with Neil. Molly couldn't resist the urge to be drawn in by the cake, Troy wanted to make plans and Isabel is an alien. No, really?

Up on fifth floor Roxas read the last Barry Plodder book. I'll save you the few hours of your life - rocks fall, everyone dies. Willow came to bond over being bored without homework. Here's one for you, Willow. Write me 10,000 word essay on the history of the Greek pantheon until now. Due Monday.

In other non-dork news, Cedric went to see Jack before he left, Jim woke up after a caffeine high (ouch), Eve listened to angry chick music, River checked in on Ronan and talked about relationships or cheese or something, Annie decided to spend her time staring at an empty suitcase and Isabel got a visit and a hug from Anders.

Gavin came home all bruised and crazy, Inara knocked on the door and then on Gavin's face for leaving without a note or something who knows with girls, hormones, hair spray, Ben and Jerry's I don't know what I'm saying. Anyway! Pam balanced a pencil on her nose in her room and got a conversation from Jim involving pencils and Tetris. Kids. Yeesh. Aaaand Molly waited for Carol to get back from wherever he was, tired but ever the pretty boy.

Fandom, Fandom, It's a Crazy Ol' Town. The School is Up and the Causeway is Down

John Connor and Barney both showed up at Joanna's, but apparently John was the winner (or loser, depending on how you look at it) and got taken back to...what the [microphone feedback] is a boudoir?

I don't think I want to know. Let's move on. Leo opened the Photo Hut, Liz opened the post office, Yitzhak opened Luke's and Gabriel opened the church.

Newsflash: New radio boss Johnny Fever had a date with Vala at Ching Tai. Will their choice of location doom them forever? I dunno. Ask 'em.

The clinic was open during the day and down at Caritas, GOB was sleeping behind the bar.

Johnny Storm was at the Perk and got a visit and an earful from Mary and vice versa. Turtle opened Turtle & Canary for all your shopping needs. Marco showed up to talk about paying for gravity. I don't think that's something you can charge for, but I like the spirit behind the idea. And Buffy came looking for glitter. River opened the Arms Hotel. Mary was there to make Jeff flail (not hard), River offered to take on Jeff's mother, Mary set up next semester's schedule with River and River said goodbye to John Connor. Which leads us to...

Leaving on a Jetplane (or car or spaceship or portal), Don't Know When I'll Be Back Again

All your bags are packed, are you ready to go? Well, you'd better be or these notes are wrong since most of these guys have left already. Here we go, but first, a song."

*plays Hit the Road Jack by Ray Charles*

"On with the goodbyes! John Connor is outta here and Naomi and Billy went to see him off, same with Mary. Or she might've just been there to get his room key.

Jack Harkness hit the road with little fuss and a lack of drumroll.

There was a big ol' lovefest for Belthazor and Phoebe Halliwell's farewell. Phoebe went to say adios to Wilson and Phale and was joined by Bel a little later for his own goodbyes. Before that, there was Bel, Anders and Phoebe up close and personal time.

Then a whole bunch o' people stopped by to say see ya. Bridge thought goodbyes sucked. Not when the people annoy you. Then they're good. Eve didn't like goodbyes either and asked about Anders. Does this mean he's single now? Bel promised Lana he'd take care of Phoebe and let her visit. Bel and Izzy talked about the future, Bridge saw Phoebe off and Eve talked to Phoebe about closets and boys. You get a lot of that here. Adam came to brown-nose to the teacher one last time, Lana and Phoebe reminisced about the good old days and Izzy promised Phoebe she'd take 'good care' of Anders if you know what I mean. Chris told Phoebe that he and Michael Bolton Halliwell would be fine on their own and Anders got a couple of visits from Bridge, Eve, Lana and Izzy.

Aaaaand yeah, Bel, Phoebe and the cats hightailed it out to the causeway and they're outta here. Send a postcard!

Last but not least, the weird guy with the mask, Stark decided to ditch town today too. Phoebe stopped by before she left to say goodbye and talk about the future, as you do, Anders brought cupcakes with a promise for a bottomless supply of them and Summer challenged cupcakes with Pancakes to say goodbye. Stark stopped by an abandoned store in town to say goodbye to someone who wasn't there, or the mice I guess, and stopped at the end of the causeway to take his mask off to show a glowy half-face before his last step away from Fandom.

Send a glowy postcard!

And that's it, kids. Goodbyes, goodbyes, more goodbyes and this is my last radio broadcast, at least for this year. A god needs new hobbies sometimes. I'll probably see some of you little gremlins around tomorrow when the fresh meat arrives. Don't forget to torment your new Dean and remember - a rebellious deed a day keeps the Umbridge away. Nighty night!"
