It was Halloween and there was a brand new thoroughly unnecessary chandelier in the ballroom of the smallest version of the Stark Tower. So clearly there was a party going on.

There were pumpkins galore and plenty of drinks and food options for everyone to enjoy throughout the evening, of course. What kind of party would there be without that?

If you arrived early enough, you'd see three dogs wearing hot dog costumes with varying degrees of enthusiasm (Fee was over it from the get-go), and your hosts dressed as sexy ketchup and mustard (when you wear form-fitting costumes for work, you forget to be self-conscious). The dogs would disappear later in the evening, but sexy condiments would remain. It was the way of Halloween in the 2020s...

It's almost time to head home! Wake up, have one more steak for the road, take another thousand pictures of the beautiful Rocky Mountains, by some mitts, and let's go!

Well. Kathy was coming over to talk things through.

Dante would've expected to feel more dread about it, but he was mostly... drifting. Took him a few hours to realize he should probably clean up before she showed up, moving bottles and take-out containers into the... trash?

No.

Wardrobe, maybe.

About half an hour before she showed up, he even found the wherewithal to carry some of it to the hotel's dumpster downstairs. No terror, no. But he was sober and tired and he felt quietly miserable, which sucked, and by the time he got back to his room he mostly just-- wanted to get this over with.

Fuck.

It's time for our last full day in Banff, and we've given you lots of time to revisit favorite spots or find a new special place today.

Or stay in the hotel and refuse to leave the hot tub. It's on the school's tab and it doesn't care.

You can't let me sleep in just once, can you, Leroy?

Let's see, on the Trip, Henry and Flint were amazed at the idea of steak for breakfast. Dante and Illyana went on an icefield tour, before Dante went back to his and Jon's room.

Meanwhile on the Island, Octavia continued to have opinions on the decor at the Devil's Nest.

Portalocity hadn't wanted to book him a portal anywhere but Fandom. Figured. For once, Dante would've happily taken a hell dimension or a world full of evil drop bears or something, and yet they weren't letting him have anything.

He'd strolled around for an hour or so. But then, inevitably, he'd wound up drawn back here. At least strawberries hadn't let him down yet.

And if that meant picking at his giant sundae until evening, when it was well and truly melted? Sure. He was even seated at the window, so he could stare outside and see if he could spot Bee Lady or something.

Ugh.

The weather dipped down overnight, which could be a reminder to buy yourself an adorable, warm, touque before leaving Canada.

Or it could be your sign to stay inside and rest in the hot tub. We leave the interpretation up to you.

Time to see Banff, folks!

There was a new addition to the club's Halloween decorations, now: behind the bar, there was a semi-lifesize Dracula animatronic with a motion sensor that prompted it to say 'I vant to suck your blood' in the worst possible Bela Lugosi impression ever committed to tape whenever someone came close enough.

It was also wearing an ill-fitting blonde wig, with a pair of leather pants stapled on over its Transylvanian slacks.

"I don't think he's tall enough," Octavia told Tiny, after staring at the thing for a moment. "But... good effort, I guess."

How are we already halfway through this beautiful trip?

Oh, the passage of time, why are you so quick through fun things and so slow through staff meetings?

The mountains are beautiful, the food is comped--get out and enjoy it!

The room Watts and Steven had been assigned upon check in was far more extravagant than the room Watts had originally booked. So much so that he'd almost- almost- protested. But in the end the inclusion of certain amenities had won out.

There had been museum visits and beach walks and tomorrow there was a tango lesson booked, but tonight they were enjoying a night in, dinner from the hotel's Michelin-star vegetarian/vegan restaurant having just been delivered.

"This looks wonderful," Watts said as he poured them each a glass of local Malbec to go along with their meals. He'd been genuinely torn between several options when perusing the menu earlier, but had ultimately settled on the Cavatelli for his own dinner.

Welcome to a beautiful, crisp day in Alberta! Hope you packed your touque and mitts, but if you didn't, downtown Banff will be happy to sell you some (possible with moose on them) for an upcharge!

Up and at 'em, Fandom! Don't miss the beauty by staying inside!

Kathy hadn't thought the island could get much quieter, but with everyone gone on the trip, she realized just how wrong she was. She didn't know if anybody besides Lucifer was allowed to play the piano (and she had no intention of asking his Maxwell Hale looking ass anyway), so she had brought along her acoustic and sat on one of the bar stools to play for the evening. She'd pour somebody a drink if anyone came along, but until then, she saw no reason not to--

"For the last time, Tiny, I am not taking requests."

She saw only one reason to not spend the evening playing.

Hey there, Fandom! What up, it's ya girl, Arden Finch, calling in from sunny California because squirrels apparently can't even let me have a family wedding without being jerks about it!

Anyway, the only notes today are from the Trip, because everybody else understands the concept of 'vacation.' Turns out Professor Dante had trouble sleeping, but hopefully the trip on the Banff Gondola perked him up. It sure seemed like Captain Rogers and Professor James Stark had a good time!

And that's it for me! So this is ya girl, Arden Finch, leaving you to enjoy your next day on vacation! Enjoy Roniit's Fade To Blue as you go! Bye Fandom!

The first full day on fall break was looking to be just as nice as the half-day arrival had been. But now with more activities!

Get up and go, Fandomites, your adventure and/or lounging around awaits!

Yes, the most exciting bit of the fall term was here again: fall break! A time for staff and students of Fandom University to pack their bags and head off into far-off and exotic locales --

Like Canada.

Extremely pretty Canada, in this instance. Sunday saw Fandomites arrive in pleasantly crisp fall weather at their hotel, a veritable castle in the mountains within a national park. Time to start settling in!

Good morning, everyone! It is I, Miss Lydia Bennet, here with all of yesterday's news. The squirrels have done rather better this week, it seems: they have presented me with three scraps of paper detailing your goings on!

At the school, Dr. Blake's Health Education students learned about cold weather safety in preparation for our upcoming jaunt to Canada, and Practical Physics tested siege engines using gourds, as one does. In the town, there was a bit of a coffee situation at the trooper station, where Detective Watts was joined for luncheon by Mr. Grant, who was very concerned the detective might have done himself an injury with lukewarm coffee. Goodness, Mr. Grant's nerves might rival my mother's.

And with that, dear listeners, I bid you farewell until next week!

"We are going on vacation in Canada in October," Don greeted his class, "so even though it's not that cold yet, I thought we should talk about the risks of cold, such as frostbite and hypothermia." Don proceeded to describe some of the symptoms and warning signs to watch out for with each, in concurrence with the handouts he passed out to the class.

"Now, how can you avoid this? Obviously, stay warm. Dress in layers appropriate to the climate, and a hat, even though that thing about you lose however much heat from your head is a myth. Still wear a hat. Wear gloves. Cover your face. Again, it's not going to be cold enough to warrant all this on our trip, unless something goes seriously wrong, but it's good information to have. Any questions?"

Okay, okay. Steve couldn't make it, but I'm here. Let's get the news going, hmmm? Yesterday, there was the usual Violence For Fun and Fun class, but this time it involved fighting scarecrows. That's a new one. Oh, and there was also the invites for our party going up around town! But that's all the notes here that the squirrels decided to share. Everyone, have a lovely trip!

The danger shop was done up like a field. Maybe even the field that had plagued a class yesterday, scarecrows and all. But this time around, there was also a whole pile of pumpkins.

"It's time to test your trebuchets," Tony said cheerfully. Because chuckin' pumpkins.

“It’s going to be so fun,” Steve said with real enthusiasm. “We’ve gone to places to watch contests.”

"And then you can all head out for whatever last minute packing you have to do," Tony added.

All of the drawers were filled with coffee again, as Watts found out to his dismay when he reached in to one for a pencil and found his hand immersed in liquid.

Thankfully only lukewarm and not piping hot, or he may well have been spending his shift in the Clinic being seen to for burns.
