Fourth Floor Common Room, Thursday Evening, The Barry Gibb Talk Show

The fourth floor common room had been transformed. Do not ask how the best talk show hosts ever had found a disco ball to hang from the ceiling, one that showed off their matching white double-breasted pantsuits. They were here to sing about politics and chew bubble gum, and they were all out of gum.

There were chairs arranged in a semi-circle, for the important political guests, brothers Barry Gibb and Robin Gibb (also known as the surviving two thirds of the best effing band ever, the Bee Gees) faced away from the studio audience. As if on cue, Barry and Robin spun around, and began to sing.

"Here we are
In a room full of strangers
Discussing politics
And the issues of the day
Well, I want to talk to you
Though you may not want me to
I'm still gonna talk to you
I don't care what you say

Talkin' it up
On the Barry Gibb talk show
Talkin' bout issues
Talkin' bout real important issues
Talkin' it up
On the Barry Gibb talk show
Talkin' bout politics
In this crazy, crazy town
Oh yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah"


So maybe George and Squall had been gremlin-bit earlier this evening and thought they were washed-up disco superstars now hosting a belligerent talk show about politics. That might be cool, too.

(There will be OCD for this. OCD UP! Come be a guest on the show, or a member of the studio audience, or stand in the back with a camera! JOIN US.)

"I do, actually," Freddie said. "Including the part where they sorta tried to threaten me. I'm very diligent in my journalism."

He nodded sagely.

"Okay," Rinoa said. "I need at least two ... no, three. I need at least three good quality, if not high-definition, copies. Name your price."

She had a purse. She was opening her purse and pulling out money. Look, Freddie! Money!

... she was a princess. Daddy's money fixed everything, right?

Freddie's jaw dropped open at the sight. "Well, do you want full DVD menus? I could probably do that, if you want. Clear up the audio, maybe do some color balance?"

"Perfect," Rinoa said. "Double your fee if you can rush it. I need this yesterday."

There were friends back home who needed to see this. Quistis could show screenings of it to cadets. Seriously.

"...I'll stay up all night," Freddie said. "And we can discuss payment when you see the finished product?"

He was totally nerding out about getting to do this sort of work, it was ridiculous. About the only thing that would stop him would be Sam coming over to make out with him or something.
