Robin's Show That Is Doomed To Remain Unnamed [afternoon]

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"Hello again, Fandom!" Robin spun in her chair, smiling a smile of evil. "It's Tuesday afternoon, which as you know means you get to listen to me for a little while. Before I get on with the requests and advice and all that, I'd like to take a moment to talk to the students in particular. Some of you might know my good friend, Professor Stinson. Some of you might even be taking his class. If any of you would like to hear any anecdotes about your teacher, such as why 'Swarley' is his preferred name -- please, call him that, he's shy about asking people to -- feel free to stop by the station. We go way back, old Swarles and I."

"And aside from that, I'm here to take your calls!"

Request a Song! [10/23]

She's not afraid to hang up on people who talk about robots.

"Hi. Um. Can I get something from the 80s? Or the 70s. Not this 'disco' stuff." Jack was trying to expand his horizons.

Robin flipped through her music. "Okay. This is 'Don't You Forget About Me,' from a movie that was really popular in the mid-eighties, okay?"

She put the song on before he could protest. She liked that song.

And that would be the phone ringing.

"Hi. Can I hear something from Robin Sparkles please?"

Re: Request a Song! [10/23]

"...how do you know that name?"

Robin stared in horror.

Barney was going down.

"Who *hasn't* heard of Robin Sparkles? She's like a Canadian Debbie Gibson and Tiffany rolled into one!"

Re: Request a Song! [10/23]

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"No she's not!"

Robin hung up quickly.

Re: Request a Song! [10/23]

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

And that would be Jamie calling back.

"Hi! There must have been a problem with the phones. Can we hear that song by Robin Sparkles? I'm like her biggest fan ever. Right now I have the denim jacket from her video on bookmarked on my browser. It's for sale on eBay and it's only at twenty bucks."

Ask Advice! [10/23]

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

Because she's good at that.

"Hello, I would like to know more about Swarley. It sounds like such an interesting name."

After all, why ask in person when so many more people could hear this way.

Re: Ask Advice! [10/23]

"It is," Robin told him, grinning. "Deviations also include Swarles, Swarlos, Swarhili, and any derivation of those. It's a noble, ancient name, which is why Professor Stinson prefers for everyone to call him that. If he argues the point, of course, ignore him. Blame me, if you want. He's very shy about it."

Re: Ask Advice! [10/23]

[twohalvesofaphd.livejournal.com]

"So I've noticed," Zack said. "He seems very fond of nicknames."

Re: Ask Advice! [10/23]

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"Yeah," Robin said, raising her eyebrows. "Did he give you one?"

Re: Ask Advice! [10/23]

[twohalvesofaphd.livejournal.com]

"No, just detention."

Re: Ask Advice! [10/23]

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

"Hi, I am in Professor Stinson's class. I am loathe to call him a professor though. I'm not sure what he is a professor of. He gave me detention and called me a ho." Pause. "Well he called me a ho first then gave me detention."

Re: Ask Advice! [10/23]

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"Mmm," Robin said sympathetically. "Why'd he give you detention?"

Re: Ask Advice! [10/23]

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

"Because he called me a ho and then I refused to play laser tag. Because he called me a ho."

Re: Ask Advice! [10/23]

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"He probably didn't mean it as an insult," Robin said, certain he hadn't really meant it as a compliment either. "Every time he calls you a ho, just smile and call him Swarley. I swear, it works like a charm."

Re: Ask Advice! [10/23]

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

"I would like to think he didn't mean it as an insult. He called all the girls in his class ho's. I'm no a ho." Pause. Annette wouldn't get into that. "Swarley. Got it. Does it mean something to him?"

Stop by the Station! [10/23]

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

Where Robin is gleefully spinning in her chair and trying to think of embarrassing interesting Barney stories.

Re: Stop by the Station! [10/23]

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

After experiencing several complications with the phone (WTF? Phone?) Jamie decided it would be best to come down to the station himself.

After doing a quick stop at the Kwik Stop.

"Hi! I was wondering if you could play a song for me?"

Re: Stop by the Station! [10/23]

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"...what song?" Robin asked suspiciously, eyeing him.

Re: Stop by the Station! [10/23]

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

"Only the best song ever!" Jamie said looking hopeful. "It's be Canadian superstar Robin Sparkles!"

Re: Stop by the Station! [10/23]

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"We don't have it," she said flatly.

And this is the last week that I will disappear for a huge chunk of the afternoon, YAY.
