Rey pulled up to the warehouse with coffee and bagels from JGOB, and set them down on one of the crates while she set up for training today.

Every time she turned her back, one woodchuck got closer and closer to the bag, freezing instantly when she looked over. So she did it a few more times than necessary just to see if he'd chicken out.

The woodchuck remained undeterred.

"I don't even know if you can have that," she said.

Isla San Pedro, Chile, Friday Evening

For weeks, for much longer than on any previous trip out to any of their islands, Octavia had been content. Happy to figure out her new, temporary normal, her new temporary habits and routines. Her favorite paths in the woods, her favorite patches of beach to bring a yoga mat to, the places she knew Duke and Lucifer gravitated towards.

But it always got to her in the end. (Still. For now.) That jittery little feeling, calling her back to her actual routines, her actual favorite places.

Calling her home.

She'd told the guys. Sooner rather than later, they'd be heading back to Fandom.

But tonight, they were still here, on their little Chilean island. The sun was setting, and Octavia was out on the beach not too far from the cabin. She was sitting cross-legged on the sand, a small bowl of chopped up fresh fruit on her lap, and her phone and one of those little portable speakers next to her.

Playing music into the darkening night as she watched the water.

I know I don't get there often enough, but God knows I surely try...

Like all the best things, the moment felt to Octavia like freedom to just breathe. A sense of calm. Belonging.

More or less.

There were more than the normal three dogs for class today. But it was in the Danger Shop, so whether or not they were all real dogs was up for debate.

"The Puppy Bowl!" Tony said. Because why not go all out after being missing for two weeks?

Steve had definitely snuck an extra few pups in from a shelter. Shhh. Don't tell.

"Dogs playing football!" Steve said. "Well. Playing fetch. Sometimes napping."

"And sometimes just chewing on things." Fee was absolutely going to town on a football. It would not be lasting through the end of the class.

"It's pretty football adjacent, honestly," Steve admitted.

"So, everyone settle in to have some fun, yeah?" Tony suggested as the football deflated. Fee was a monster like that.

Harley had been kinda busy as of late. With what? Hey! Mind your own beeswax! Although it mighta-coulda had something to do with the mighty fancy looking ring she was wearing on her pinky, a little bit of a departure from her usual costume jewelry bric-a-brac.

Also there were like stacks of cash up in the apartment, but that was not for anyone to see and certainly not for anyone to tell any authorities about! Parting assholes from their money was practically a public service, anyhow.

Anyway, she was back minding the store that Friday. Or she was skating around the inside of the store on a pair of fetching 1970s roller blades that had just come in, but whatever, it counted!

Hopefully someone would drop by before she got any bright ideas about taking the skates for a spin out on the notoriously cobble stoned and stair-y Fandom streets.

Good morning, everyone, it's Steve Rogers again with the news of yesterday. In classes, Jane and Cara showed their class a movie about immortal cats--really?

*chittering*

You weren't paying that much attention. Got it. Don got us talking about Norse gender norms and how stories about Thor and Loki don't bend to those norms.

*chittering*

And he brought up the horse thing again, yes. Belle was annoying by whoever had made the library such a mess, and Liliana's mana class put their learning into practice.

In town, Steven set up a game for children in the museum, and Thor was enjoying a quiet night at the Devil's Nest. And that's everything! Have a great weekend.

There were four mana pairings left to cover and only two classes left to do so--and, while nothing at Fandom was so kind as to happen on schedule - Liliana hypocrisy at its finest, considering her staunch refusal to be bullied by clocks - she was fairly certain that no one would be in a fit state to pay attention to class next week. She had absolutely no idea how she still nearly had half the pairings remaining, but here she was.

Clearly, she needed to adapt, and she needed to adapt on the fly. Sure, she was mourning her notes, but she genuinely loved respected teaching, and that meant focusing on helping students learn, regardless of how much effort and preparation she'd put into other things.

"Welcome to your second to last class, students," she said crisply. "Quite possibly your last, depending on what the island gets up to next week."

It wouldn't be a spring semester if there wasn't pollen attempting to sabotage a class period.

"Again, by this point, you should be able to look at mana pairings and explain what their concepts are, their similarities and their frictions. So consider this your early final. We have four more pairings to discuss: blue/green, black/red, black/green, and red/green." Next time she taught this course, she was definitely starting with black. Talk about the best color first. "Rather than waste everyone's time with additional lectures, let's put what you've learned into practice."

Library, Thursday 4/16

Belle was annoyed today. By everything.

The state of the library when she arrived was not helping.

Why was there spilled ink there? Why were there gum wrappers over there? Why did that table have croissants piled on it? Why were the gremlins wrestling over in the corner?

And why was another group of gremlins holding what looked like a wedding?

The whys would likely remain a mystery but the library was open.

"I want to get a little philosophical today," Don said, "because there's an interesting paradox in Norse mythology, especially when you look at it through the lens of Norse culture, about masculinity. In Norse culture there were a lot of things that were strictly women's things, and a man doing them made you unmanly--and even accusing someone of being unmanly was a duel-worthy offense. But then you look at the gods. Odin and Loki, especially, do a lot of things that are quote-unquote 'unmanly.' Some of the magic they use is supposed to be reserved for women. Loki carries and births offspring. His offspring is a horse, but still. He's not Sleipnir's father, he's his mother. In another myth we covered in class, Thor, mighty warrior that he is, dresses as a woman and poses as a bride. So...what is that? What does it say that these are the stories this society chose to tell, when they go against the tenets of said society? Is it just that the gods are seen as beyond the ways of mortals; so different that the usual rules don't apply? Or is something else at play? What do you think?"

Well, look at that! Jane was back in the classroom this week.

"Hi, everyone. Glad to be back after a busy couple weeks," she said. "Hopefully everything was good here?"

"No one died." That was an exceptionally low bar, Cara.

Yeah, the expression on Jane's face said as much. "Right. That's. Right." Concerning, but they could circle back to it!

"Today we have a movie about... mortality?"

"And cats," Cara added, then after a pause. "The cats don't die."

"We'll always give warning on that." Because they knew better.

Yes. Yes, they did.

The last couple of months had been busy - gigs, work, the first few songs for a next album, maybe, and so much more. Prep for their summer tour was beginning to heat up. Several attempts to schedule a trip to Bear Mountain to just relax hadn't worked out.

Life was just... busy.

And now it was Thursday night, and for once Jack didn't have anything to do.

His apartment didn't have the luxury of an 'outside'. There was no magical fire escape to hang out on, even when the evening felt warm on his skin and the skies were heavy with something pleasant and balmy. So-- he cheated. A little. He used the Force to propel himself to the top of his building, and now he was sitting there, drink in hand, watching the city.

It wasn't always this nice to be alone with his own thoughts. But that had changed over the years. He was--

Ugh, was this contentment?

He pulled out his phone, threw another glance at the skyline, and threw out a few texts to the ether. Better not linger on that feeling for too long - it might run away.

Steven was feeling chipper when he arrived at the Museum that day. He printed up postcard sized copies of the Museum logo on heavy cardstock, wrote clear numbers on them with a marker, and then hid them around the Museum.

Well - "hid." Not really anything difficult. The intention was for it to be an activity for children to do while they wandered through with their grownups. Spot as many of the cards as they could and then come back to the Welcome desk for a prize of a magnet or a mug.

Not that it had to be limited to children, of course. Grownups were welcome to try too if they felt like it.

That done, Steven sat behind the welcome desk and took care of his regular tasks. He was, of course, available for any visitors who might need him.

Glitter. - Wednesday- 3rd period

[personal profile] throughaphase posting in [community profile] fandomhigh
Today the classroom looked the same, except for all of the drop cloths and tarps covering the room. You know, a totally normal change.

"Today we're going to just be... I don't know, throwing glitter at some things," Kitty said. "I have paint you can put glitter in and splatter it around, you can just glue stuff to the walls, I don't care as long as you don't permanently destroy the classroom. I've also got coveralls you can put on if you don't want to get your clothes glittered to hell and back."

Was she maybe running out of ideas and so glad the semester was over soon? Was it obvious?

Leroy! We don’t say things like that where the island can hear us. Hush.

First off we have yesterday’s classes at the school. Feeding Yourself 101 watched a movie about a rodent who cooks. I suppose we should be grateful the squirrels don’t try that. And in Ethics Anakin and Ahsoka tried to make us get into strange vehicles with strange people. Bad enough when he does that to pick up new students…

Nothing from the dorms but a couple things from the town. At Liliiana’s shop, Sairis asked the armor for answers about Anakin. There are no answers about Anakin.

And at Caritas Tino was still missing along with another zombie. This is getting odd. I do think someone ought to question the raccoons.

That’s all for today from yesterday.

The weather was nice, and Rey made her way to the beach a little early to set up for date night. It wasn't anything fancy, mostly little sandwiches and snacks, some she'd made or put together herself. She had made the pasta salad as she'd been taught (and it was good!), which was maybe more than she'd needed to do, but why should Adrian be the only one to make an effort for this sort of thing?

And once she'd gotten everything set up, she found a place to sit and wait. The beach was pretty this time of day.


[For the date!]

It's tiiiiiiime!

Springtime, that is! Which means, in chronological order:

1) That pesky sex pollen, from the 19th to the 24th
2) The Spring Formal on the evening of the 24th
3) AU Kids, appearing the morning of the 25th and staying until the evening of the 27th!


You have the option of having children show up at any age from 3 through 17. Alumni can get in on the action too, as kids of theirs can also find themselves coming through the portal, landing in Fandom, and giving their very surprised parents a call. Or, if they are teenagers, roll their eyes, ignore being responsible members of society, and bop around the island having their own fun. The sign-up for AU kids is up in Plotterywheel, so get your thinking caps on for brainbreaky and adorable kids/teenagers and their oh-so-necessary icons, then trot on over there to sign up before Thursday, April 23rd!

AU Kid Signups!

Like it says in the headline, here's the place to drop your kid (and teenager) plans! These are due by Thursday, April 23rd, 11:59 PT. Comments are screened for maximum secrecy-surpriseyness!

The important details/rules:

* You will get one journal for your character's "family." Multiple children can be had but they must be in this one journal. If your "child" is with another character in the game you must share the journal with that character.

* Your character may have children with:

a) another character in the game
b) another character in your canon
c) with an anonymous person that you do not want to define or they can be reproduced asexually. (Hey. It could happen)
d) You may also have a child with an NPC character from another canon. HOWEVER, if that canon has any characters within the game, you must contact those people privately for permission.

* If your child is with another character in the game, please make sure you have their permission first before applying.

* Children can be between 3 and 17 years of age.

* The plot is open for students, townies, teachers, and alumni/expats alike.

* There is a cap of two children per character, but each child is only counted against one IG parent.

In other words:

Steve and Tony's players decide they should have two kids: "Tesla Rogers-Stark" and "Bucky Rhodey I Told You'd I'd Put It On the Certificate Don't Test Me Rogers-Stark". Since these kids are shared between two IG characters, each parent can take one of the kids towards their two kid total, leaving them each with one more slot to use. So now Steve can also have a kid with Bucky named "Sarah Winifred Barnes", and Tony can use his other slot to raise his and canon love interest Pepper Potts' kid, Peter Parker. Wait, no. Well, kind of.

Ask if the math still gets you confuzzled.

And a form for your copy-pasting pleasure!

Sairis came by after class, still a bit confused about what ethics had to do with dirty transportation. (Though what did he know? He'd walked most everywhere, with the occasional dead steed.)

"Do you think the instructors know anything about ethics?" he asked the haunted armor. It just stood there, as usual when Liliana wasn't there.

"I miss Charles," Sairis sighed. The dragon skull hadn't usually spoken, either, but it felt like home.

As usual, there was a sign in the window: Charms and potions for sale! Get extra focus for exams!

Were exams here anything like what he'd seen at the university back home? Sairis had no idea. He was hoping. But anyway, the shop was open!

Anakin and Ahsoka welcomed their class to a simulated version of a grimy spaceport. "Welcome."

"We can't teach you everything there is to know about ethics in one semester," Ahsoka said. "But hopefully we've given you a good start."

"Or, for those who have taken this a few times, more to think about," Anakin added. "Ahsoka, explain why we're here."

"While we've largely focused on helping you develop your own ethical framework, one aspect we haven't touched on as much is that having a solid grasp of ethics yourself will help you identify those with let's go with more flexible principles." In other words it helped you look out for people who were suss af.

"So, catch a ride with a stranger," Anakin said. "Make sure they're trustworthy!"

And not, say, Darth Maul.
