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.

"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.

(Yes, it's true! Raiden and Gray will be going away for the summer to do some canon updating! In their absence Pizza Planet and Over Easy will remain open on a run-by-NPCs/moddable basis!)

New Orleans, Monday Afternoon

A fun fact about Erasmus: he owned a car! A car that had been taking up space in his mother's driveway since he went off to college, and even though it wasn't like he needed it on the island, she would like it gone, please. So yesterday he and his friends had portaled to his momma's house, been fussed over appropriately, and spent the night and been fed breakfast this morning before they had promptly headed out.

In the wrong direction, because New Orleans was right there and Erasmus knew his duties as Local Guide. They had like four more days after this to drive back to Maryland. It would be fine.

Now they were standing in the middle of the French Quarter as Erasmus tried really hard not to think about how much he was paying for the privilege of parking his car, and he asked, "Okay, what do we want to do? Bourbon Street is a hellhole." He was just getting that out there first thing.

((For those friends. NFB due to distance!))

"...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."

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.

*47 repeats of It's Gonna Be Me*

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!

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!

Hey there, Fandom. It's me, ya girl Arden Finch, and...it's always a lot quieter the day after the kids go home, isn't it? Yeah...

Well, anyway, there's no School and no Dorms to report, so just a bit of stuff from Town to share. Professor Vess was with her daughter at the Infinite Consortium playing go, at least until Sairis came in asking about...carnivorous metal cabinets? Ooookayyyy, then. Kids got to eat free at Pizza Planet, which my kids appreciated when we stopped by. So weird that there are no radio notes about that! What were you squirrels even doing? Professor James brought his son with him to the Clinic, which made the nurses all happy, and Rey was in Mr. Blackwood's Grove with their daughters getting them all sugared up before sending them home. There's a thick stack of notes here about everything that they got up to, but out of respect for their privacy, I'll just say that children were adorable and goodbyes were said.

And with that, I'm out of notes, so I'll be signing off. Take care island, and enjoy emlyn's god sent me a karma which may or may not be related to the weekend. Bye!




[Me, to my manager, LJ, last week: Hey, so I'm going to Vegas next week! Fly out on Tuesday. Her: Okay! :) My Client Lead to me, today: Hey, LJ told me to send along these two high-priority assignments to you. When do you think you can get them done by? Me: lol. I'm getting into the cab to the airport in 3 hours. Not today, my guy! As I told her last week.]

Right. The pollen was gone, the kids were gone, and Bucky was out of whisky. Time to take some kind of step.

Or several steps, all the way to the theater.

Maybe not a step. Maybe a vague olive branch.

(You could take a guy out of the intelligence community, but you couldn't take the urge to send out coded messages out of the guy, apparently.)

The movie theater was open. Come get your grindhouse.

Unsurprisingly, Rey loved having the girls around. It was one of the rare weekends like this that wasn't weird or kind of traumatic. Instead, it was just nice. There would definutely be things to think about, and the timing was definitely awkward for when they were supposed to go to Beltane, but... nice.

Also Hanna could maybe be a little more forthcoming about some of the Jedi stuff in her universe but whatever.

And knowing that their time together was coming to an end, that felt like a good excuse to sugar them up on cookies before send them off. Sorry, AU future Reys and Adrians.

"How many chocolate chips should they have?" Rey asked, kind of knowing the answer.


[For them and all the SP.]

Once again, Raiden didn't have any kids visiting this weekend. He figured that made sense, what with the being gay and not planning to reproduce in case the curse could be passed down anyway, but he liked kids, so it was kind of a bummer.

Oh, well. He'd suffered worse disappointments.
