*chittering*

No, I don't blame anyone this week from hiding from your prying eyes. It's a time that requires privacy.

*more chittering*

No, I'm not going to mention what normally comes next. Let's get to the notes. In classes, Don made us draw a Norse god family tree by memory, which was mean, Liliana has been here long enough to teach everything last week and cancel this week, and Cara and Jane left their class with a movie about a welder? A dancing welder?

*chittering*

Oh. There was water. Leroy watched. Caleb and Belle flirted in the library, and in town Thor probably didn't tie anyone to a bedpost and that made things strange by saying that out loud.

Anything else that you did yesterday remains unreported, and you're welcome.

Any plans for a spring-ish theme for this dance had been scrapped at the beginning of the week. Instead, the community center was draped in winter decorations - cool blue and silver draperies, glittery snowflakes hanging from the ceiling, cardboard standups of snowmen, tinsel on every flat surface - all giving a general sense to stay calm and chill.

It probably wouldn't work, but at least there was an attempt.

Belle was in a more revealing dress than the library usually rated. But you never knew who might wander in. She might need to impress someone!

Perhaps someone mysterious!
Or someone from her past!
Or a disguised god!
Or a pirate captain with a heart of gold!

Or she might be alone with her novels and that would be fine, really.

She was meant to be shelving romance novels. She was mostly making a stack of books she wanted to read later. There were so many and she was learning so many things while she read the week away. Alone.

But again, anyone could walk through the doors at any moment! Perhaps the librarian might even come out of his office and...

And Belle suddenly needed some water.

The teachers weren't in the classroom this week. You got three guesses why and the first two didn't count.

But there was still a movie all queued up for anyone who decided to show up this week.

Hopefully it wouldn't awaken anything in any of you.

[personal profile] ifwebeworthy posting in [community profile] fandomtownies
Was it hot in here or was it just Thor? The god of thunder had opted for a shirtless look tonight, for reasons.

Also, he would like it on the record that he had not selected this week's specials. He wouldn't have been so on the nose as the third one.

Specials
Between the Sheets
Tie Me to the Bedpost
Sex on the Brain


The Devil's Nest is open!

[personal profile] deathsmajesty posting in [community profile] fandomhigh
See? This was why Liliana had shoved everything in last week. Pollen had hit her spring classes reliably every semester, there was no way it would magically bypass it this year.

Messages were sent to her class informing them not to bother coming in today, because she certainly wouldn't be.

It paid to plan ahead! And she would be absolutely insufferable about this later, when she was less, ahem, distracted.

"It's our final class together, which means you're due some kind of final exam." Don had forgotten to prepare one. Look, he had been...distracted. And not just by what was clearly a B on the Canes' jerseys, although also by that. "Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to draw the best family tree of the Norse gods you can, from memory," Don told his students. Sometimes it was not hard to believe that he would go evil, especially making them do this this week. "You have one hour. Begin."

*violent sneezing*

So we all know exactly what kind of week is is by now, so let's just get on with this.

Up at the School, The Long Con, Creative Writing, and Glitter all had their finals which involved, a movie, being cancelled in favour of passing everyone, and cleaning up glitter. One of those is not like the others. Meanwhile, Arden was in the Library against her better judgement, and got a visit from Belle and messages from Cal.

No notes from the Dorms, while in Town, Stark was in the Park, alone, three guesses what Steve and Tony were doing in Stark Towerlet, and Octavia was at the Devil's Nest considering her current life choices.

*more, even more violent, sneezing*

This was far from their first time with pollen, which was why JARVIS knew to keep certain items on order so that when Steve and Tony finally emerged from their room there was something to eat and drink.

"Want a power bar?" Steve asked, standing in front of the open cabinet in a pair of Stark branded shorts.

Why was Arden here today instead of, you know, at home?

Honestly, she couldn't give a good reason. Sheer pig-headed stubbornness, maybe? And there was no guarantee she was staying the entire shift, either. Goddess, considering she'd checked the clock six times in five minutes, it was possible she wasn't staying the entire hour. But nobody could say she hadn't at least made the attempt!

"...We should get hazard pay for days like this," she muttered.

Stark had gone into the ice cream shop and walked right back out again. That was not the correct choice of venue. Then he'd thought about baked goods but there had been too many suggestively shaped baked goods on display. So he'd gone into the Perk, ordered a very large iced coffee with a possibly horrifying amount of sugary add-ons, and then immediately outside.

Now he was sitting in the park with his absurd coffee-adjacent beverage. Just sitting. Being moody. It was fine.

It wasn't like outside was going to make the pollen worse, right? Though watching some amorous waterfowl hadn't improved his mood and he'd ended up moving to a different bench not near the pond.

"We were gonna do the Fiddle Game today, but fuck it, none of us have the focus for that, and it's your last class," John said bluntly once everyone arrived.

"Movie Day. Because sometimes, having the right team at your back is the difference between success and total failure."

Happy Wednesday!

I'm taking search offline sometime today to upgrade the server to a new instance type. It should be down for a day or so -- sorry for the inconvenience. If you're curious, the existing search machine is over 10 years old and was starting to accumulate a decade of cruft...!

Also, apparently these older machines cost more than twice what the newer ones cost, on top of being slower. Trying to save a bit of maintenance and cost, and hopefully a Wednesday is okay!

Edited: The other cool thing is that this also means that the search index will be effectively realtime afterwards... no more waiting a few minutes for the indexer to catch new content.

You know what Kitty needed? (Well, yes.) Less things to do during the week. Did she really need to be this busy? Never mind that anywhere else she'd be pulling eight hour shifts every day but that wasn't the point, the point was that she was annoyed about it now.

"It's the last class, and the place is a mess," Kitty said, gesturing at the classroom that was scattered in little pieces of glitter around the room. "Today we're doing clean up. I have tape, I have nail polish remover, let's get it all up- no- and maybe everyone can work something out by doing something... I'm just not going to finish that sentence. Get to it."

The thing about this week was that as far as Isabela was concerned it mostly just added a pleasant buzz to everything, She was, however, aware this did not seem to be the prevailing attitude on the island, so in the interests of being kind and considerate and not wanting to have to put on pants to teach she stole Aphra's computer (she'd had to turn the internet off on her phone) to send an email to the class.

Congratulations! You all passed! Enjoy yourselves!

No you weren’t interrupting anything and you know that very well. Just give me the notes. I’d like to leave.

*chittering*

Shut up.

Right. The school had Feeding Yourself 101 where Raiden reminded everyone that takeout is a good idea. And hydration. Raiden is correct. Hydration can be very important.

*chittering*

No I do not need any Gatorade.

Nothing from the dorms. Probably for the best. And so we have the town. Sairis was at the Infinite Consortium…setting fires? Hopefully not to anything Liliana is attached to. Caleb took a walk in the woods in the preserve and set up a campsite. Alone. Or at least he was alone as far as the squirrels can tell. Walking sounds like a good idea. Or maybe running. Or…jumping into the ocean.

Or going to the movies to watch things about making cheese? I’m…I’m not sure if that’s really what was showing or not and I’m not sure I want to know, really. But Bucky was at the movie theater where there may or may not have been “unsexy documentaries about cheese.”

In Tony’s tower, Don was watching hockey? Mostly yelling at hockey, it seems.

Right. One more note. It seems Tino has returned to Caritas which at least meant Kitty could leave early. Good for her.

That’s what I’m doing now. Leaving. Good day.

TONIGHT'S SPECIALS
Any suggestively named cocktail you can think of 50% off!


Right.

What better way was there to be greeted by Fandom after a long while away on a much more secluded island, than to return smack dab in the middle of pollen season? Octavia could've thought of a few, actually, but this was what she got.

Still, she'd let Tiny put up the special of his choosing, and was settling in for an evening of distracting herself from her antsiness until she could return to the Rouge.

It was good to be home, regardless.

[ooc: Big SP warning from me throughout the day, but Tiny is available for modding so don't let that stop you from getting some pollen-charged mingling on!]

Sairis had no idea what was going on. He just felt...well. The less said about it, the better.

So if he were fidgeting a little more than usual, and burning off some of that energy by actually making fire off and on, that was clearly just normal.

"Did you come back because you heard it was pollen time?" Kitty asked, deeply annoyed.

Tino didn't answer, but his expression said it all.

"Gross," she said, phasing into the bar to start working. "So gross."

The good news was that she had backup so she could leave once they were past her kid's bedtime.


[Open!]

Augh! I'm here! I'm here! I didn't forget! I was--well, don't you worry what I was doing, I'm here now and that's what matters.

*squirrely snickering*

Shut up. Ahem. Anyway, what up, it's me, ya girl, blah blah blah. Let's just get a move on here, okay? Nobody's listening to this anyway, and I've got...plans...to get back to. Shut up. Let's just start talking about School all right? Squirrel had us meditating as far away from one another as we could be and this makes so much more sense now. Beginning Gourmet Cooking Techniques had us prepare a meal and mine was pretty delicious, I think. And Tasks had the class keep a baseketball on a treadmill for as long as possible, but without touching the ball or the treadmill. This is some advanced problem solving, galaxy brain development for sure.

No Dorms, but also let's not think too hard about why, and in Town, Professor Vess spent most of her shift at the Infinite Consortium daydreaming, Dr. Isley tidied up around Pick Your Poison before heading back home and, honestly, cannot blame her, and Vi was shadowboxing at the Magpie Emporium in order to, ah, work off some energy, which was made all the hard--all the more difficult with Steph there. Raiden was being really rude at Pizza Planet and making aphrodisiac pizzas, when Professor James stopped by after his Clinic to definitely think about pizzas and not how hot Raiden is. Hey! That's my big brother, squirrels! Don't make it weird! And Officers Williams and McGarrett were home that night...and who could say what they were doing, not me! Because I refuse to read anymore of that note; it's three pages long and there's underlining and, nope! That's enough radio for me, today!

So...yeah. Uh. That's today's broadcast, this is Arden signing off, I've got places to go and people to--see, so yeah! I'm off! Enjoy today's track, Do It For Me by RosenfelD. Arden out!
