Turn and look at the person next to you. Ask yourself, what if? What if they're really just a construct of your own hopes and fears, projected onto the outside world in a way you can experience? Then ask yourself: how do you know they aren't? After all, this is Fandom.

Listeners, I'm so excited! It's the week between classes, which would mean I'd get to go home, if ♥Carlos♥ wasn't such a worry-wart. But it still means loads of time to talk and skype and snapchat with him! In between bouts of science, of course.

I hope you're all having as wonderful a time as I am! Let's see.

Clint and Kitty had an anniversary yesterday - happy anniversary, you two! - and he cooked and she brought wine. They agreed that they've managed to make it this far because they're awesome and sexy, which is really the best way to be! Unfortunately, the awesome didn't extend to cooking, so they had pizza instead, and Kitty bought dessert. I still think it sounds amazingly sweet. Well done!

In Barry's room, Joker and Barry were trying to catch a gremlin. They had all kinds of shiny things, and Barry shaved his legs - well, the squirrels say he said he did, but they didn't verify. Honestly, what kind of journalists are you? And apparently, the bait worked, because they did catch one and get it into the trap!

Then at Barry's warehouse, Barry, Elsa, Eleanor, and Joker were there, and Barry got a sample of gremlin venom and studied it. Then a group of black ops gremlins came in from the roof - this isn't going to end well, is it? Eleanor tossed a few about with her mind, but got bitten anyway. Barry got bitten, too, but the gremlin stabbed him with his antidote, so maybe he's okay so far? Eleanor was singing R. Kelly, and got put in a closet.

Meanwhile, over at Cafe Fina, Hatter was having a special on wines, and in the park Loki was trying to film a gremlin when Jessica showed up to ask him about a giant purple planet-eater named Galactus and how to stop him.

And at Caritas, Kenzi - hi, Kenzi! - had fired the week, and the booze. Flaming drinks for everyone!

And it looks like that's it! Hooray for a nice, slow news day that lets me get back to ♥Carlos♥ even sooner. So I'm heading out now, but until next week, I leave you with the weather!
