The Perk, Tuesday Afternoon

Marc had gone for a walk around the island just to get some movement in. Or that was the reason he told himself. Maybe there was other motivation but nothing he was letting near his conscious thoughts.

Before he headed back he decided to hit the Perk. Coffee for himself, stuff for back home. Not for any particular reason. Or again no reason he was telling himself. At best it was him noticing Illyana had dropped off her usual deliveries and he was feeling inspired.

Of course the replenishment of the vodka stash - which he hadn't made use of yet, just noted and moved a fresh bottle into the freezer of the mini fridge in his office - could just mean getting something for Illyana. But for whatever reason he was thinking about the other residents too.

Nothing he was examining too closely.

The problem was that Steven was the one who remembered crap like preferences and diet. Marc could ask Steven, but doing so felt like cheating. So here Marc was trying to remember.

Watts and Steven were easy, Marc knew their preferences on enough things. Illyana was chocolate donuts (you remembered when it was the person who kept you in good vodka and pastrami). Arden was... not poultry? Which Marc remembered because Watts had just done that radio about her being a bird? But was that even relevant when far as Marc knew there was no such thing as a chicken cupcake?

Yeah, got a little harder as he went down the list. Which was why he was in front of the counter, not in line yet, and studying the selection like it was a text he couldn't translate.

It took a judicious application of treats, but Remy managed to head to the store this week without the cats in tow.

Which was good, because the store was particularly . . . fragrant, today.

The source, he quickly discovered, was an extra-large pizza covered in brightly colored, not-easily identified, but likely non-traditional toppings, sitting on the check-out desk.

Remy blinked at it. He poked at it. He sniffed it delicately.

He decided to sit on the other side of the room today.

But hey, customers who may or may not show up: have some pizza! It's on sale. It may or may not be cursed.

[this post brought to you by the not-at-all mysterious pizza my company got for us for lunch. Mine has fried chicken and bacon on it. Mmmmm.]

Today Steve and Tony had on scrimmage pinnies on over their usual paintball protective gear. Steve was in blue, Tony in red.

"We're gonna capture the flag today, troops!" Steve said with entirely too much enthusiasm. "Half of you will be with me on Team Cap, and the other half will be Team Iron Man." He grinned. "And lose. How sad for you."

This was clearly going to end in tears. "We've had a neutral third party hide a blue flag and a red flag somewhere in this course. Whatever team finds the other team's flag first wins! Listen up for your names."

Team Cap:

Cal Kestis
Lana Beniko
Steve McGarrett

Class was being held in the Danger Shop again. Partially because it was far too hot to go to the actual beach, and partially because Isabela was, well, partial to the neon pink sand. Which had a number of pastel coloured toy buckets set up along it.

"Welcome back," Isabela greeted them, and no, neither she nor Aphra would even acknowledge their absence last week. "Today we'll be tackling a class of the beach. Sand castles!"

"We considered making this a competition for best sandcastle to motivate you," Aphra added. "But we decided that really, you're all winners." Plus otherwise they'd have to judge the merits of everyone's castle, and that would be too much like work.

Kitty liked doing the movie thing on Monday, and was putting up posters advertising the next one, but it opened her up for helpful suggestions from Tino about which ones to do next.

These suggestions elicited answers like, "That's disgusting," "Kids go to this," "No, we're not doing anything gory," and finally, "What the hell is wrong with you?"

Fun day over here!

Good morning all, it seems the only new that the squirrels deemed noteworthy from yesterday was Miss Finch transforming from a literal finch back into her regular form on Mr. Kestis's balcony. Which was, I am being told, a little awkward due to both her rather precarious postion on the railing and the fact that she lacked clothing.


Until next time, Fandom.

This week class was indoors in Ghanima's regular classroom.  While the heat didn't bother her, it was too much for the students and Trebor.  And as people arrived, they would find her quietly coaching Trebor over a chess board, studious intent written all over his toddler face. 

I haven't scared you off yet?" Ghanima asked, looking up from their game. "Fantastic."

"The question of free will is if, and in what sense, rational agents exercise control over their actions and decisions," Ghani said, hopping off her desk to wander haphazardly among the desks. "Addressing this question requires understanding the relationship between freedom and cause, and determining whether the laws of nature are causally deterministic. Sounds fun, hrm?"

"Now, then, let's ponder." Ghanima leaned against the wall to survey the room. "Moral responsibility, madness, and free will. Go."

Why did the classroom look like a cheap Italian restaurant? Why was there a miniature giraffe in a scarf in the corner? Excellent questions, both! Your teachers would explain it later.

"Hello, everyone," Anakin said.

"Today s all about hidden layers." It was not, but Ahsoka had learned to spin a line of bantha poodoo with the best of them. "So we may as well judge your homework first off."

Anakin nodded. "Yes, show us your costumes."

The costumes that you had remembered to wear, right?

Of course they had! They were conscientious students! Probably.

"And now onto the second part," Anakin said. "You are going to create chemistry on a first date."

Which...sort of explained the restaurant set up.

Feel free to start having a bad feeling about this. "Working in teams, you will relay instructions to your single on what to say and how to act. We will be judging which team had the best first date."

Feel free to start having a really bad feeling about this.

"Earl the miniature giraffe is looking for love," Anakin said like that was a normal thing to say. "His date, Tiny, will be here soon."

Steph was still of a feline disposition, so Vi had brought her along to the store, much to Saffron's dismay.

It was bad enough that Food Human was stealing all her rightful snuggles, and she was being forced to (ugh) share her salmon, but every time Snuggle Human had to actually do anything that required her attention, Food Human would immediately start trying to play with her.

Like now, when Food Human was pouncing on her tail.

Help, Snuggle Human. Help.

The projector was set up in the park again, with all the room to set down chairs and blankets so people could hang out and watch.

Tino was also handing out toy totally-not-lightsabers which was not in the plan and he wasn't supposed to be involved in any of this so surely this would go well.

It was back in the classroom today, where Jag and Jaina were happy to take the droid babies people were probably thrilled to get rid of.

"Today will be a discussion class," Jaina said. "How did the week go? How did you work with your co-parent? Did you learn anything about the experience, et cetera?"

"And we will be checking the droid babies for damage after class so if there's anything we need to know tyrrr, now would be the time," Jag added.

There were a multitude of reasons why Pam was happy to keep her lab on Fandom. Lack of sudden super-villain drive-bys, for one. A quiet, focused place to work. And... somewhere to retreat to when you'd just digested an entire evil apartment building's worth of toxins and you came home to find your girlfriend had bailed again for the week. Something about the Bats?

Pam preferred not to think about the Bats.

So she'd come home - to the shack, to here - early. And while she badly wanted to get back to her research, the ache in her body said no thank you.

The sign on the door said 'open'. Pam, herself, was inside, curled up on the sofa between the shelves, sipping some herbal tea she'd drawn for herself.

She really hoped this feeling would go away soon. There was work to do.

"Some time-wasting things are more informative than others," Jon said once everyone had settled. "Though occasionally veracity is...well, best proved by actual research."

He held up his phone, which was opened to Wikipedia. "Wikipedia is more or less an encyclopedia, but crowd-sourced. Which is to say, anybody can write anything, but they do their best to try and keep it factual. It's generally safe for casual knowledge, but real resource...as I said, best to check.

"One way to use it to waste time, though, is with looking at random pages. They have their own code, or you can use something like Wikiroulette. Just look up a random page, read it, click on links in it to take you to something related, and keep going however you like. When you get bored or run out of links, you can start again."

He went to another page. "There are also a few games you can play with it, like following a specific number link until you run out of links, or seeing how fast you can get from one article to another using links. It's a definite time-waster, and also potentially informative and really interesting."

If you were a nerd.

"So let's do that, and report anything really interesting you find."

Good morning, everyone! Tony's on an engineering tear down in the lab, so I'm subbing in. Let's get to the notes!

Kitty put up signs for another movie night in the park on Monday. We're going to be watching Space Battles and I'll make sure Tony doesn't bring a working laser sword.

*chittering*

I am not a dream-killer. Speaking of dreams, Jane was avoiding the gremlin playwright from our workshop as he drank and worked on the manuscript at Caritas. Raiden has made my breakfast dreams come true with his new place, Over Easy. Yesterday was Mexican themed and you should definitely try the churro waffles. Jaina tried the mimosas, too, while I ate and learned about how the demon population of Baltimore is behaving itself.

*chittering*

Well, now you know there are demons in Baltimore. And that everything for yesterday! Have a good one.

Well, the gremlin from class was just sitting in the bar, writing the play. Or pretending to write the play while drinking heavily. And, you know what? Jane wasn't going to question it at all.

She was just going to stay on this side of the bar and help restock things. It seemed the safest option.

"No, we're not 'in competition with' the Mexican restaurant. A, they're not even open for breakfast, and B, they don't even serve waffles. There's no competition. Don't pit two bad bitches against each other, jeez." Raiden couldn't believe they were even having this conversation.

Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the Saturday news with me, Miss Lydia Bennet. I'm sure the squirrels managed to notice at least three things through their inebriated haze, so let's begin, shall we?

At the school Drama in the Park-a-Rama practiced stunt driving for the gremlin director's newly revised vision involving underground street racing. As one does. The students in First Aid 2: First Aider received first aid kits, courtesy of Mr. Stark, and Dr. Blake went over the contents with them. I've no notes for the dormitory, the porg is sad, yes, yes, we're all familiar, moving along to the town, where Miss Eleanor was dealing with gremlins at Plant Parenthood, whilst Captain Flint dealt with a salesperson at the Ink Spot. Miss Skywalker was practicing the use of her powers at her warehouse, where she was joined by Dean Skywalker and a fake infant, which he apparently shares with Mr. Kestis, although Mr. Kestis has of course shirked his fake caregiving responsibilities. Well, those are all the notes I have, so I shall leave you until next week with a fond farewell, dear listeners.
