"Right," Henry said. "When you're right, you're right."

Mutt barked, curling up in the far corner of the forge.

"It is getting far too warm in here."

Ah, well, it wasn't like he got customers anyway. Henry pulled off his shirt and cast it towards the corner; Mutt jumped up with a loud yip.

"Oh, don't be a baby."

The weather was nice, and Rey didn't want to jinx anything but maybe it was staying that way? At any rate, it gave her an idea, and in the meantime she was enjoying the weather by doing lightsaber drills outside. She did t really need it, but she wanted to do it.

She let Anakin know where she was, found an open spot near a bench, and got to work.

It was movie day in fighting class! The students would find their teacher absent and a screen set up for a film, so they could learn about boxing. It was educational.

“Mexican cupcakes today,” Stark said. “Mexico is…right here, on our map.” The cupcake sticker count increased by one as Stark added it to the correct spot.

“So, these are a bit different. They have cheese in them. Not cream cheese. Queso fresco. And they’re more like a bread pudding, if you’ve ever had that, than a traditional cupcake. No frosting, really, but there are sprinkles!”

Sprinkles were great, okay?

“Right. So. These are called Capirotada Cupcakes and they have a coffee liqueur crema. I do like coffee flavored things….but you may not and that’s fine if you don’t like these. You can try the ones I brought in.” Because of course there was a platter of them available for eating.

“Any thoughts on Mexico before we begin? Remember I’m happy to help if you need or want that.”

Last night had been the final night of Passover, and so today?

Today Watts was enjoying once again being able to eat bread with absolutely ridiculous sandwich. No, this wasn't lunch. This was a pre-lunch snack.

And no, Calvin, he wasn't gonna share. C'mon.

Steve was in the front of the class again today, this time without Tony or the dogs.

He did, however, have a bunch of leashes that were not holding dogs.

"We're still running through the obstacle course," Steve said, "with these invisible dogs."

The imaginary dogs.

"They should listen better than our three real dogs do," he added optimistically. "Who wants to go first?"

Good morning, everyone! It's Steve Rogers with the news of Thursday. In classes, Liliana wasn't thrilled that her class ended up at Urza's Fun House, Cara was still unsupervised in Cinema Studies and that led to a movie based on a dice game: was it that the male version of the female heist film? Don taught us about Frigg in Norse Mythology, and Belle was doing some additional reading on the subject in the library.

In town, Thor was in a contemplative mood at the Devil's Nest and Tiny probably didn't knock over every glass there last night?

Someone check for me tonight, okay?

Have a great weekend!

Belle wanted to read up on Norse mythology. Or maybe she wanted to read some romances that were based on it. Maybe both.

Instead somehow she was moving several shelves worth of books instead. She wasn't sure why. They're had been a note saying things needed to be moved and so shrug was doing her best.

She was going to have to take a reading break soon.

Thor was in a contemplative mood tonight at the Devil's Nest, which meant he was ignoring whatever Tiny was doing with the highball glasses over there and hoping they didn't topple and break.

They would be Tiny's problem if they did.

"I realized we haven't really talked about the goddesses of Norse mythology much yet, and that's my mistake." He was preoccupied with the family drama side of things, which the women smartly stayed mostly out of. So today we're going to talk about the goddess who most directly impacts your lives today: Frigg, goddess of marriage, prophecy, and motherhood, wife of Odin. You talk about Frigg at least once a week: Friday is named for her.

"Now, where I'm from, Odin is married to Frigga, who sometimes goes by Freyja. Mythologically speaking, these are two separate goddesses, with Freyja being a goddess of love and beauty, but the names are similar enough that people do get them confused and some scholars argue about whether or not they were originally one goddess. If you'll remember the story we read last week, Freyja featured there. Freyja is also a goddess of the dead: she receives half of those who die in battle in her field of Folkvangr. And, fun fact, she rides in a chariot pulled by cats. Way more fun than goats, right?" Sorry, Thor. "And, because the Norse love a similar name, apparently, she has a twin brother named Freyr. Freyr, Freyja, Frigga, Frigg. Get it? Got it? Good."

Jane was still noticeably absent today, which was probably not a good sign.

"Today we're watching a movie about that game with all the weird dice," Cara informed them. "There's a shop in town if you feel inspired."

No doubt, Steph would appreciate all the increased custom that was sure to result from this!

Honestly, she should have expected it. It wouldn't be a semester in the Danger Shop if something hadn't gone awry. She thought she'd seen the worst of it when the Danger Shop had shoved them into a sim about green zombies that battled against plants, but she realized she was wrong as soon as the program started and the class found itself in the the center of Myra the Magnificent's Intergalactic Astrotorium of Fun. This impression wasn't lessened any when a pack of small children, each of them wearing a child-sized distinctive blue robe barreled through their group. And, when she turned around and saw that they were standing directly in front of Urza's Fun House, her temper snapped.

When she found who had programmed this damned theme park into the Danger Shop, she was going to floss her teeth with their tendons, she didn't give a damn who it was.

( It didn't explode, which is a disappointing first for us.--Izzet League )

"I've spent ten weeks thus far explaining the philosophies of mana and how to figure out how to find what color pairings have in common and how to discover their points of contention. So, go off and explore this godsforsaken theme park and, at some point, come back and tell me literally anything you can figure out about the pairing of blue and red. Something that points to their commonalities, their differences, something that makes you think that it somehow captures some element of that pairing. Make it at least semi-logically consistent is truly all I ask. I will be waiting in that restaurant over there, where it is slightly quieter." No, she wasn't pointing to the concession stand shaped like a giant, sloppy hamburger, but the more staid and expensive restaurant near it, with rich purple, gold, and black decor. The one called Grilliana's, yes. She would absolutely not be referring to it by name, thank you.

"I'd say I'm sorry for missing class, but I'm the one who got stuck as a cockroach for a few weeks, so I think you'll all deal with a few missing days," Constantine announced dryly once everyone had arrived.

Look, when Fandom was accurate with its animal transformations, it was accurate, and John wasn't going to argue with it. He knew what he was; an unkillable pest.

"So let's talk about someone that the world tried to stomp-out multiple times, but she never let it stop her from aiming high. Jeanne de Valois Saint Rémy, the Comtesse de la Motte, and the Affair of the Diamond Necklace."

( In the eyes of God and the world, I wanted my life to be as it should have been. )

"Jeanne schemed and scraped her entire life, determined to be recognized in her own right and not just resigned to the trash pile of Europe's royal bastards. And, in her own way, she succeeded, though not in the way she wanted. But that's the risk of the con, innit?"

Back in the classroom! Back in the desks pushed together with supplies in the middle! Had Kitty actually put the room back together after class last week? No!

"We're going to be making ornaments today," Kitty said. "I know it's April. You may not celebrate chrustmas. But there's nothing stopping you from hanging it on your window or something at any time of year. So have at it, let me know if you need more supplies."

Welcome to another Wednesday, Fandom.

Another quiet Tuesday yesterday. One class from the school. In Ethics we discussed whether lying is all right. It has to be. Sometimes.

Nothing from the dorms, sorry Porg.

And in the town Tino was once again missing from Caritas and Kitty was no closer to finding out where he was. The drummer was missing as well. I wonder…I hope Tino didn’t end up with the raccoons…

That’s all for today from yesterday. Try to enjoy your days, everyone.

What up, Fandom? It's me, ya girl, Arden Finch, bringing you all the best gossip mediocre squirrel journalists have collected. Don't look at me like that, Leroy, you know what you did.

School had its usual Monday complement of classes. Squirrel talked about boundaries and ways to say no, Beginner Gourmet Cooking Techniques made raindrop cakes which were very cool and also surprisingly hard to make, and Tasks gave knowing something like the back of your hand a run for its money.

No Dorms and no surprises there, but in Town, Caleb was dealing with kitty jealousy in Furnado, the Trooper Station was disappointed that Officer McGarrett wasn't doing an easter egg hunt, and Professor James got an Easter basket from the Easter Raccoon at the Clinic.

And that's all we got, so this is ya girl, Arden Finch, signing off, but leaving you with Keep It Movin' by Yazz, ft. Serayah

"After all, it's not like they can prove you didn't have itchy minerals," Ahsoka added.

"But there are some who feel they must be absolutely honest in all interactions," Anakin said.

"Still others might consider such a stance...ill advised."

Time seemed to slow on this island.

Lucifer was vaguely aware they'd have to go home soon-- that Octavia was likely to get antsy, and Eric inclined to do mad things to the club while he wasn't there.

But this was nice, wasn't it? Quiet when you wanted quiet. Lively fun and time together when you didn't. He'd even started to warm up to all the nature of it all.

Which was, perhaps, why Lucifer had gone for a stroll all by himself this evening, right on the cusp of sundown. He'd wandered down the beach, and then up into the woods. And now, finally, he was heading home, keeping to the lights of the lodge as his North Star.

It was... peaceful.

Still no Tino, and he wasn't answering his phone. And the zombie drummer was out. They of course were no help, because, you know, zombies. Everything was probably fine, but Kitty was becoming bothered.

"What?"

"See? It says Stark on it in big letters?"

"Yes. I see... but the pawprints look more... raccoon than rabbit."

"It might have been a raccoon wearing bunny ears. I want looking that closely."

Stark approached the basket with no small amount of trepidation.

Today class was back in the Danger Shop with their cooking stations, and each one was outfitted with an assortment of gelatin types, food colorings, small knives and spatulas, along with...syringes?

Hannibal nodded to them both and smiled. "Today, we return to gelled things, and we learn about agar." He showed them a number of flakes. "We will be making raindrop cakes. They are deceptively simple in concept, but you will want to ensure you get the mixture and procedure correct so that it stays together. I have enabled us to cheat by using this room to generate a refrigeration unit that will quarter the time it will take to set the cakes. Once you have the basic concept down, you will find a number of ~~moddable~~ mix-ins at your stations, and can work at using them for added flavor and color."

He demonstrated the proper way to dissolve and mix the agar, then waved them toward their stations. "Please ask if you have any questions."

"Yesterday was a holiday for Christians," Jon began today. "Today still is, in the UK. Also it's Passover for Jews. Holidays can be terrible times for people who have issues with distraction or overstimulation. Not that this is the worst of it; that would probably be December. But as now is when we're having class, we'll work with what we've got."

He shrugged. "Again, sleep and exercise came up as good coping mechanisms." But look, not every class could be napping or going for a walk.

"Another one, though, is saying no." Jon was really bad at this one. "Putting up boundaries and finding ways to enforce them. So I thought we could work on that today."

He waved at the whiteboard at the front of the room, then drew a line down the center. "On this side, let's come up with boundaries. Things we don't want to do, particularly on a holiday, although general ones are also fine. On this side, we'll come up with ways to say no to them."

He carefully wrote on the first side, Getting blotto. On the other side next to it went, I'm even more unpleasant. Then he turned expectantly to the students.

The new-mama cat and her litter were doing quite well and had been moved to a larger cage, to accommodate the little ones' slowly increasing desire/ability to explore their surroundings.

And if Caleb didn't know better, he'd swear the semi-feral Kitten (whom he'd taken to calling Samantha, and who was becoming less feral by the day) was getting a little jealous of the attention he was giving them. She no longer hissed at him when he approached, allowed him to give her scritches even, but still balked at being handled. And she meowed any time he seemed to be looking in the direction of the youngins.

"You're still my favorite, kid." he assured her. "Us strays gotta stick together, right?"

Yes, Flint went to church. Flint was a regular attendee!

...very well, Flint had not attended church in at least a decade, but he was certain that if Miss Bennet discovered that fact, she would drag him to the nearest congregation by his ear, never minding in the slightest that he was the most feared man in the Caribbean.

He had taken his phone (after plugging it in and charging it. He'd forgotten about it for a month), searched for a correct church to attend, and then sent the address to Miss Bennet. (It had taken three tries. Not that Flint was frustrated about that.)

And now he waited near the back of the church, looking very regretful about this choice. People were looking at him like high boots and leather breeches were not appropriate Easter attire.

All of Rey's tools were Twizzlers today. She didn't know why, and she knew she couldn't fix it, so she didn't care. But everything was Twizzlers, and therefore unusable today. They were too floppy.

Gregorith had been given the option by Blathers to take the day off, but Gregorith had most of the week off so he'd opted to come in for at least a few hours in the morning.

He'd spent the first hour hiding candy and small toys (some of which he'd made himself) throughout the museum, and put a sign out front inviting folks to come hunt for them.

The Museum is open for knowledge seekers, or the hunting for munchings, crunchings, or small things to put on your shelves or desks.

Good morning, everyone! It is I, Miss Lydia Bennet, here to bring you the news of the day, although it seems to be a light day. Either the squirrels have begun their Easter celebrations early, or everyone was busy with Good Friday observations; who can say?

It seems that all my notes from yesterday are from the school, where Overcoming Obstacles had an Easter egg hunt for the dogs and Cupcakes of the World(s) learned of the cupcakes of Brazil, and then Miss and Dean Skywalker utilized the Danger Shop. And with that, I shall bid you farewell and a happy Easter.

“This weekend is Easter,” Stark said. “Which has eggs and rabbits and resurrection.” He knew there was more to it than that. “And chocolate.” He also knew there was more than that.
“And it’s spring now. Hopefully this means no more very cold weather. So the cupcakes for today are not Easter themed but they do have carrots and rabbits like carrots so I think it works. And they have chocolate, of course. The cupcakes for today are from Brazil! Where I haven’t been. Maybe someday.”

“So Brazil is here, on the map,” he said, pointing and then adding a cupcake sticker. “And here are today’s cupcakes.”

Those were not on the map. The cupcakes were on the counter in front of him under the cloche he’d just removed. “Bolo de Cenoura is the name for the carrot cakes in Brazil which aren’t the same as carrot cake here. These are much more orange.” In case you all couldn’t tell by looking at them. “And they have chocolate frosting. Which is the best sort of frosting. This is called brigadeiro frosting and that’s a type of chocolate candy, like fudge, only here it’s frosting.”

“So, we can try and make the cupcakes as usual or you can just eat some of these as usual. Or talk about Brazil. Or talk about other things. Or…I don’t know. Does anyone have anything they want to say before we begin?”

A couple weeks ago, Rey had brought up maybe using the Danger Shop for training, and she had no idea how she'd never thought of it before. If she felt like she might be getting rusty/too used to the usual training methods, why not create a whole new challenge?

And that's everything! Enjoy your weekend, everyone.

The library looked better than it did yesterday but it was still in something of a state of disarray after yesterday's excessive gremlin nonsense that poor Arden had to deal with.

At least the scissors had been freed from their plastic prisons.

Some of the shelves remained a shambles though so Belle was going to tackle that. Try to tackle that. It might be a multi-day project. That remained to be seen.

"Mm-hmm," Thor agreed as he organized the glasses behind the bar. "You will apologize to the goats."

I didn't say anything bad about Toothgrinder and Toothgnasher, Don lied through his teeth. I love Toothgrinder and Toothgnasher. He didn't bother pointing out that the goats weren't alive to need his apologies at the moment. Maybe by the time they were alive again Thor would have forgotten.

They were finally done talking about white mana pairings; as the first color discussed, it would, of course, have the most pairings available to talk about. Honestly, she should have gone with black color pairings, because then she could have spent all that time talking about black and how great it was, but for some reason, the order of colors in her head was white, blue, black, red, green and there was no changing it. Probably a holdover from her childhood or something. yes this is another Magic joke, I am hilarious.

Today, for their first discussion of blue, the students found themselves in a beautiful bower, next to a brook of sparkling waters. Golden sunlight fell down to warm patches of fragrant flowers, while in other places, cooler, darker shadows loomed. Flitting hither and yon across the glade were tiny winged figures, ranging in size from pinkies to an entire hand: faeries. Don't be surprised, class, if you ended up with your hair pulled or supplies filched or other small mischiefs enacted upon your person. That's just what faeries were like.

( People would sooner savor sweet lies than chew plain truths.--House Dimir ) While blue/black can very easily be one of the strongest, most dynamic, and powerful pairing, it is also one of the easiest to fall to its own infighting, to be intractable and unyielding to its own opposing viewpoints, and has been known to become its own worst enemy."

And, having lived through a breakup of just this type, Liliana was inclined to put the blame squarely on ~~Jace~~ blue's own shoulders.

No reason.

"Thor!" Don exclaimed brightly. "God of thunder! Probably the most familiar of the Norse pantheon to you on this island, since we have not one but two manifestations of Thor in residence." Ha. "Wielder of the hammer Mjolnir, husband--husband?--of the...golden-haired...goddess Sif." Excuse Don while he stared into the void for a moment. No, not that void. Okay, maybe also that void. "Did I mention god of thunder? And that he travels in a chariot pulled by two goats, surely the most noble of animals? Or that one time he cross-dressed and almost married a giant? It's true, and part of the Þrymskviða, which we will be studying today." Don passed around handouts of the story. "You will have to read it yourselves, I am afraid," because Don could not get through it without laughing and he didn't want Thor too mad at him. "And then we can discuss what we think of the story." And Don would continue trying not to laugh.

The gremlins had thrown an April Fool's party in here last night after closing, or at least that was how Steph chose to interpret the abundance of very tiny confetti (tiny for confetti at least but still too big to qualify as glitter, in her totally expert opinion) and streamers all over the store.

Plus the spring snakes that kept popping out of the shelves whenever she pulled a book out to relocate it. And the very small whoopee cushion on her office chair.

At least they were classic goofy pranks and not shitty mean ones?

Little Bot trundled by with yet another dustpan full of confetti as Steph picked up another snake and deposited it with all the others in a big utility tote bin. That had a lid that latched shut. Around here, she figured, assuming those snakes wouldn't just turn real was probably a bad idea.

Leroy, even you're not stupid enough to think you can get away with a second day of pranks are you?

Thought so.

Up at the School, Creative Writing had another movie day, or rather the same movie day, while Glitter made glitter bath bombs, and this was apparently not a prank. Unfortunately for Arden in the Library the gremlins had more than made up for any lack of pranks elsewhere, though Cal was very sympathetic when he showed up with drinks.

The Dorms seemed to avoided any foolishness, while in Town, Stark showed up for a make-up shift at the Clinic to much suspicion, while at Pick Your Poison, Adrian wasn't nearly suspicious enough, at least until Rey came by to explain the odd phone calls.

The phone was ringing off the hook today, but the conversations were more and more confusing.

"Is my refrigerator running?" he repeated. "What fridge? Do you mean the one in my Grove or the one here in the shop? Hello?"

"Do I have Prince Albert in a can? What's that? Is that some kind of body wash? Hello? Hello?"

"You're looking for...you said his first name was Ollie? Last name Tabooger? Excuse me, is there a Mr. Tabooger in the store? Mr. Tabooger? No, I don't think that there's anyone here by this name. Have you tried--hello?"

This is what happens when you were raised in a forest with a coven that pretty universally hated April Fools. You spent the whole day bewildered.

"It's Wednesday," one of the nurses said flatly. "It's not Monday."

"Yes, I know that," Stark said with a roll of his eye. "I had glitter class after I did the radio notes so of course I know what day it is but Monday I was just...I wasn't here. So I'm here today instead."

"This some sort of April Fool's thing?" another nurse asked suspiciously, opening the lid to one of the coffees and peering at it like the liquid might hold the answer.

"No! I'm just here today because I wasn't here the other day and I thought I might be useful but I can just go if you'd rather."

One of the nurses sighed. "We're just not used company on other days. It's fine. Stay. Drink your coffee. Don't open the cabinets on the left there, things keep falling out, and watch out for Stabby."

"Why?" Stark asked, looking at the tank.

"He's playing hide and seek and he's usually got a knife when he does that."

Arden glared at the gremlins who were having a hilarious time. Today she'd come in to find: googly eyes stuck everywhere; all the office equipment vacuum-sealed, especially anything with an edge; not only were books moved around but they were also put back backwards, their pages showing instead of their spines; Vaseline had been smeared on various door handles, and all the clocks had been changed to random times.

"I hate this day and I hate you," she muttered, trying to force open the vacuum-sealed scissors so she could get the pens free.

At the school we had Feeding Yourself 101 making food from…whatever was in the fridge. That seems fair. Though I hope they had a better selection than I do sometimes. And then in Ethics there was talk of artificial intelligence and robots.
