WSFC - Broadcast 0003 - June 2nd

{ Your usual broadcaster is back, and it sounds like he had a FABULOUS vacation. There's just that zip in his voice that doesn't come from anywhere else. }

Weeeeeelcome back, listeners. This is your host, { static }, coming to you live from the Satellite above Tomorrow. Because if it's happening? WSFC is there.

So as reported by my illustrious coworker, { static }, the St. Vidicon's STEM fair preparations continue and all of us have to live with the consequences. Today's scientifically brilliant addition to our lives is courtesy of one of our booth teams and their drive to stay awake. Apparently, they've managed to add massive amounts of caffeine to every piece of edible food in Tomorrow. That's right, every one. So we certainly hope you enjoy your buzz because it's going to be a wild ride in the golden city until they manage to get this reversed. Of course, the St. Vidicon folks have apologized but how many times have we heard that, eh?

Meanwhile, over in Shadows, St. Jude's is in the midst of their bi-monthly food drive, but they've started something new given some of the gang violence that's been plaguing the City since the gang war started: they're organizing walking buddies for anyone interested who doesn't feel like making their way around the Shadows on their own after dark. Think of it like Uber for not getting mugged. Hopefully. Interested parties should report to St. Jude's to sign up. Good luck with that, sisters.

Nightmare--

Okay, lemme put it this way. Avoid Nightmare for the moment.

{ There is the sound of shuffling noises and a few clicks as various mics are turned off and on. }

My apologies, folks. You didn't tune in for life advice, after all, you tuned in for the news. So in that spirit, here's what's going on in Nightmare: given the whole 'stars in alignment' thing, not only have people been having horrible, mind-rending nightmares, but the cults have been going on a dual recruitment-and-sacrifice drive. You know. Because those robes are such a selling point. Anyway, like I said, I'd avoid Nightmare for the moment and if you can't, be careful of anyone not wearing pants.

Next door, thankfully things have started to calm down in Sorcery. There are still some witchmoss issues causing trouble, but the big news is the opening of the Goblin Market for the summer season. As we all know, there's no place better to get the most delicious produce, minor charms, and occasionally stumble on a centuries old relic of great power in someone's rubbish bin. Though to be fair, that last one hasn't actually happened for a few years...

{ A deep, audible breath. }

All right, so... over in Laughter, officials have noted that there's been rise in the number of clowns this season. As such, they're starting clown hunting season early. So if they don't rise a gorge of stark raving terror and make your heart stop a beat or two, please do your civic duty and hunt a clown today. That said, please take care not to go after any mimes. They are still on the endangered species list.

Well, looks like some of that 'portents' stuff has finally come to fruit over in Adventure. Visitors and residents should be advised that roving animal spirits have been wandering into people, making them act very strangely for periods as long as a day and as short as an hour. So if your significant other starts checking your hair for fleas or decides to hunt down dinner with their teeth, just... try and ride it out and remember that they'll be mortified in the morning.

Moving right along, the beaches have opened in Romance! So to celebrate, because they always celebrate, city officials will be outfitting all public beaches with a full compliment of Twister Towels with accompanying giant dice. So if toppling and tangling with someone is what you're into, Romance is the spot to head for.

And that actually concludes our broadcast, so I leave you all with the dulcet tones... of the Leningrad Cowboys...
