Good morning, everyone, it's Steve Rogers here today.

*dogs sounds*

And Fee, who didn't want me to go out unsupervised. Let's get to the news of yesterday! In classes, Cinema Studies watched that heist movie again and Don taught us about mythological Odin.

In town, Steven and Watts had a pleasant lunch and Thor was serving very pleasant mead at the Devil's Nest. Hopefully it wasn't the really good mead, or Bucky and I missed out on an experience I'd promised him.

And that's everything! Have a great weekend.

I don't think I did that bad.

"Indeed," Thor had to agree. Don had been as neutral as one could hope in regard to what was a very delicate subject for them. "I do not believe I suggested otherwise.

Tiny had just accepted that the god was talking to himself again. It wasn't the weirdest thing that had ever happened in this place.

Special
Mead

The Devil's Nest is open!

"Okay," Don said with a heavy sigh. "I guess we should talk about Odin." He said 'Odin' like it meant 'that asshole' for some mysterious reason. "Again, not any particular Odin any of us may know or have an opinion on. Mythological Odin." Because the concept of Odin couldn't hurt anyone, or at least that was what Don was telling himself.

"Now, Odin is the ruler of the Aesir, and thus of Asgard, and is considered a god of war, poetry, and the dead, which are pretty disparate things to be a god of. Where I'm from, most gods get one thing, and that's...their thing. It's hard to explain. But Odin, he wears a lot of hats. He's known for going on quests for mystic wisdom: on one occasion, he traded one of his eyes for wisdom; on another, he sacrificed himself to himself by hanging for nine days on the world tree Yggdrasil. Because of this, he's also a god of mystics. Because of his willingness to work outside the norms, he's a god of outlaws. A lot of hats. Not a lot of concern for how he's perceived by others. Not a lot like the guy I knew.

"According to the sources I was able to access, Odin is known as the Allfather because most of the gods are descended from him in some way, which is...not why he was called that where I was from, but whatever. Odin. Discuss." Or don't. If no one wanted to talk about Odin Don was fine with that.

"So, there's a DVD stuck in the player," Jane said like that was a perfectly normal thing to have happen. And here it might be! It just might be.

"Guess that's what we'll be watching then." A responsible teacher might have tried to check what movie it was before saying that, but Cara would argue making her a teacher proved that horse had well and truly left the barn.

"Let's just make the best of it!" Jane was a professional. She had a PhD and everything. And this is what she was doing right here.

Teaching was their passion

Looks like we're in a slow part of the semester.

Up at the School, Creative Writing and Glitter both had movie day.

Nothing happened in the Dorms, while in Town, Gregorith was at the Perk.

Morning at the Museum found Steven on the phone.

"No," he said, apologetically. "No, I'm sorry. I'm sure your artifacts are lovely but we're very specific in our curation here. Fandom related items only.

"Would I like to - " Steven frowned. "Trade? I don't think you understand how museums work. No, no, I appreciate that you somehow have duplicates but again we're Fandom specific. Not even sure where yours are hailing from. The Google's not showing me anything. Don't think you're from any version of Earth I'm aware of, even if you do sound French."

"What's Ear - " Steven cleared his throat. "Right. I think we've perhaps already said to much. Sorry I couldn't help, good luck with your endeavors. Cheers."

Steven hung up. He made a note of the call in case Blathers might be interested in it, but otherwise went about his work day.

He was behind the Welcome Desk should anyone have need of him or museum-related things.

If you didn’t want the broadcast to be delayed you could have at least tried to clean up the mess you all made in here. I couldn’t even walk.

Right. Not too many notes today. We had classes at the school of course. Raiden and his students made soup for Feeding 101. A good idea. And Anakin and Ahsoka had us pretending to be sick to not go to work.

*chittering*

Yes, we know you don’t have to let anyone know. You just show up when you like. With rum. Or stay home. With rum.

Nothing from the dorms but 2 notes from the town. Sairis locked up the chair and had tea at Liliana’s shop, and Kitty had a very boring and quiet night at Caritas.

And that’s all from yesterday for today.

[it was A Day at work today...]

It wasn't often that Gregorith had had to deal with a meeting that could have been an e-mail. It was one advantage to having an Admin Department that was headed by an extreme introvert. But every now and then they wanted the masters of each level of Hell to touch base and Gregorith had needed to attend via zoom.

He didn't feel like much had gotten done work-wise, and then it was followed by a wordy request from Leviathan for a comprehensive report about Fandom.

So he apologized to the barista when they recoiled slightly. "Long morning." he'd said. "I'm not mad, just tired." He hadn't worried about his resting stab face for a while. Le sigh.

But a large mocha frapp with two shots of espresso plus a delicious warm brownie was starting to mitigate the effects.

Kitty had had this one in the barrel since the beginning of the semester and was just holding it for a bad day. She was sort of proud, actually.

And here she was, wheeling out the TV. "All right, kids," she began. "Today we're going to watch the movie Glitter. So have fun with that till the end of class."

It was terrible. So bad.

Your teachers were here this week. Yay.

"They say that writers should focus on the three 'r's." Isabela couldn't tell you who they were, or why they said that. "But given that when we looked them up, only one of them starts with that letter, that's argumably dubious advice."

Besides the three 'g's were more their speed.

"In any case, you could probably all do with a movie," Aphra said. "I know I could."

No, they weren't even going to try and justify it this week. That was the joy of setting our own lesson plans.

Sairis was beginning to think he might need some more clothing. There was only so many times you could wash the same two outfits, and anyway neither of them was really meant for this weather.

Hopefully someone would buy a potion or ward today.

He made tea in a fit of optimism, and locked the chair in the back room.

The classroom today was filled with beds, tempting books, and junk food. (Don’t tell Rory that Anakin had borrowed her stuff.)

“Sometimes ethical questions are life or death,” Anakin said, “and sometimes they are things like, ‘Do I lie and say I'm sick when I'm really just comfortable?”

"Despite, what some people say there's nothing inherently wrong with remembering to stop and take care of yourself when needed," Ahsoka added. "The issue can lie with figuring out what counts as needed."

Anakin, trained as he had been by the Walk it Off School of Jedi Training, look puzzled. "Like if you've lost a limb," he said. "Take a day or even two "

"Or possibly even three," Ahsoka said dryly, because with age had come some recognition that Anakin and Master Kenobi had a few blindspots.

"But none of you have lost a limb in this scenario," Anakin said, "you just don't want to get out of bed. Call us nd convince us you're sick." He smiled. "Or get out of bed like productive members of society."

It was an extremely quiet day. Even Tino had the night off, so Kitty couldn't fall back on the usual bored drink experimentation without it looking kind of sad.

If she got to the point of hitting up the mechanical bull...

Hey there island. It's ya girl, Arden Finch, coming at you with notes, news, and...something else that begins with n that I did not think of before radio started. Well! This broadcast is off to an amazing start.

Anyway, School! We got to talk about music yesterday in Squirrel!, which was great, and learned about cutting things in Beginning Gournet Cooking Techniques.

*squirrely chittering*

What? Just veggies and cuts of meat. You are so weird, rodents. And in Tasks, students had to make the biggest circle they could. *laughter* I'm sure Tasks makes sense in context, but the abridged notes I get are really weird.

No Dorms, no surprises, but Town! Caleb in Furnado learned a lot about movies from a dog named Morgan Freeman--wait. Did he learn about movies because of the dog's name, or did the dog actually talk to him? I hate that I have to ask this question in this town. Later in the afternoon, Rey was in the Perk, trying to not get mopped, and again, I have to ask what exactly that means. Would it kill you to give some context, squirrels? I swear you just think you're funny. Anyway, Officers McGarrett and Williams arrived home last night, and agreed that spring in Maryland is completely ridiculous. They're right and I'm glad they said it.

Anyway, that's all I got for y'all today, so this is ya girl, Arden Finch, signing off. In honor of class yesterday, enjoy some low-fi hophop beats, like pots and pans by potsu.

"I forget what we've done so far," Raiden, notoriously terrible of memory, admitted cheerfully, "so I don't remember if we did soup or not yet. So we're doing soup this week.

"Now, the thing about soup is you don't need a recipe. You can use a recipe! But even then you can follow it loosely. Use what you have, try to make sure the flavors don't clash in a weird way, and you're golden. You can't mess it up. The basic rule is that you're going to want some kind of fat, some aromatics--garlic, onion, ginger maybe--some vegetables and maybe some meat, and broth. Or...water. I can't stop you. But broth is better! You don't even have to make your own broth! They sell it in cartons at the grocery store now, it's amazing. So you put your fat--oil, butter, bacon grease, whatever floats your boat--in your pot, you cook your aromatics and then your vegetables and maybe meat in it, you add broth until it looks like soup, you maybe throw in a bay leaf, you let it simmer for a while, and ta-da! Soup! I'd say it's foolproof, but then they'll invent a better fool, so uh, be smarter than that? I don't know. Anyway, let's make soup. Think about your favorite kind of soup, and then find a recipe for it, or just try to figure it out on your own. Sometimes that's more fun."

Danny and Steve, still with lingering coughs from smoke inhalation due to a crazy arsonist two weeks ago, were finally back in Fandom.

Steve opened up the door to their apartment and sighed. "Why is it so cold still?"

Because he had reverted to being a delicate tropical flower again.

When everyone got to their simulation today, they'd find Kitty standing there with a very basic task.

Make the biggest circle. No powers allowed.

See? Simple.

The Semi-Feral kitten was becoming less so every time Caleb saw her. She'd apparently stopped hissing and swatting at the rest of the staff whenever they came to feed her and change her litter, and she was letting Caleb pet her, though not pick her up.

Meanwhile the new mother had her paws full with her kids, who's eyes were open and were starting to attempt to explore. She kept a close eye on anyone who came by to check on the kids but also seemed very cool with a bit of a break from said babies.

Meanwhile the dogs were really digging the warmer weather, even one old timer who just wanted to go from relaxing in his kennel to relaxing in the shade in the exercise yard.

"Why'd y'all name him Morgan Freeman?" Caleb asked one of the volunteers. "That seems like a very specific reference."

He got a lot of movie recommendations from that conversation.

Class was back in the Danger Shop today, and it was once again set up with cooking stations. "Good morning," Hannibal said once they were both there. "Last week, we learned about cuts of meat, and we have already discussed the importance of a good knife."

He picked up one of his own knives. "But there are techniques to using them. It is more complicated and elegant than simply hitting things with them. The key is control of your tools, something that will come into play in a future class."

~~Hannibal playing with knives~~
Cutting Techniques

"This week, we'll cover mincing, dicing, chopping, slicing, and julienning, among other things. There are many different types of cuts. They can help add interest to food's appearance, and are also important to ensure everything cooks at the proper rate. If you have different sized pieces of the same type of food, you'll end up with some of it overdone and some of it underdone." Don't do that, kids.

He gestured for them to join him up front to watch. "We will start with proper technique, as I'd prefer neither of you lose a finger." He went over the different grips and cutting techniques, demonstrating them.

"When cutting meat, you should always cut against the grain. Cutting the wrong way is a common error that can ruin a good meal." He showed them a rare piece of steak. "Meat is muscle fibers. Muscles travel in a specific direction; like wood, they have a grain." He showed them the long side of the meat.

"Because they're designed for strength, pulling muscle with the grain - or chewing it - is very difficult." He sliced a bit with the grain and tugged on it to show them. "So, when you're slicing meat, you should always cut in the other direction." He did a bit of that. "This makes it much more tender." He pulled that piece apart fairly easily.

"You all have various vegetables and some meat at your stations. Today you'll be making a vegetable beef soup to practice different cuts. Pay attention to the size each vegetable should be, or they won't all finish at the same time. And please watch how you cut your meat."

He nodded for them to begin.
