The Podcast

After 4 hours of working on the reading homework, I finally got to go to the Achievement Hunters office. I smiled, seeing Lindsay in the office as well. "Hello, Sasha. Good to see you!" She greeted me. I smiled at her, "Good to see you, too, Lindsay." I said, just as she hugged me.

After a while, Barbara came to get me and Gavin for the podcast. I smiled, this should be awesome. "Hey, mama, is there something you want me to do on the podcast?" I asked, hoping I'd be able to do what I want.

Barbara smiled and gave a small laugh. "Do what you want, you just cannot drink any of the alcohol the guys'll have, okay?" She said, resting her hand on my head. I laugh and smile at her.

"I know, do you guys have any Root Beer. That's my favorite soda." I told them, and Gavin smiled. "We sure do! I always bring some. I don't like to drink sometimes."

I smiled even more, "Thanks Gav!" I said, hugging the man. "No problem, lad." He said, giving me a one armed hug. I think of Gavin as a big brother sometimes. Weird, I know, but it's true.

Soon we were in the podcast area. I was excited that I was gonna be on the podcast. Soon we're ready to begin.

"Hello!"

"Hey there!"

"Guess what!"

"Chicken butt!"

We all said the first thing that came to mind, and of course, Barbara says chicken butt. It's a little crazy, but I knew she'd say that if I said "guess what".

"Hey there and welcome to the podcast! I'm Gus." Gus said. Then it was my turn to introduce myself.

"Hey there ladies, I'm Sasha. " I said. Well, that's not exactly what I wanted to say, but it was good enough.

"I'm Barbara." The woman said, putting me in a choke hole, and giving me a nuggie.

"'Ello lads, I'm Gavin!" Gavin said, opening a Root beer. He passed it to Barbara, who had finally let go of me. She handed the drink to me, and I took a sip. It has been so long since I had a Root beer.

"So how do these things usually start out?" I asked, wondering what we were going to talk about.

"Like this; Don't get your finger stuck in the bottle, Gavin." Gus said, a smirk on his face.

Gavin gave an exasperated look, "That only happened twice!!" Now at that, we all laughed. I couldn't believe he actually got his finger stuck in a bottle.

Soon we we're talking about nothing in particular, when the subject of sexuality came up out of nowhere.

"So would it matter to you if, say, your brother, was gay? Would it matter?" Barbara said, looking at Gavin for an answer.

"No. I don't think it would bother me. But if a complete stranger hit on, and it was a another guy, I would walk away." The man said, after a second of thought.

"But what if the guy had you pined to the wall? What would you do then?" I asked, leaning over to get another Root beer. Barbara made sure it was Root beer that I grabed before letting me open it.

"Well I just need to say that I for one would never be in that situation."Gus said, taking a gulp of his beer. We laughed at that, know that it could happen to him even though it might not.

"Well, Sasha, what about you, huh? What would you do if you we're pined to the wall by another girl?" Gavin said, turning the question on me.

"Well, I hope it's my girlfriend pinning me to the wall." I said with a smirk. Gus has almost dropped his beer when I said that. The expression on Gavin's face was priceless.

He sputtered and sat back in the chair, his face a light pink. Barbara and I laughed at the reaction shown to us. I can't believe I'm still here with, Barbara, and everyone else. I didn't realize how much I needed to be around other people.

"So, right now, we're just gonna answer some questions some people have sent in, via twitter." Barbara said, looking at the tablet.

"So, the first question is; Who is Sasha, and why is the there?" Barbara read. I smiled, as she looked at me to answer the question.

"Well if you all must know, Barbara adopted me a few weeks ago. As to why am I here, I'm here because I'm now a part of the RT family." I explained.

"That's right I did adopt her. We all see her as family now that she has been with us for a while." Barbara said, messing up my hair even more.

"Love you, too, mama." I said with a big smile. She smiled back at me, then looked back at the tablet.

"The next question is; Are you all going to add Sasha to the next volume of RWBY?" She smiled as soon as the first word of the question left her mouth.

"That is an excellent question, lads." Gavin said, "but you'll have to just wait, like everyone else." He smirk, and I started to laugh at him. He looked so funny when he smirked like that.

I love this. The warm feeling in my chest, in my heart. I felt so happy with these people. "Can I read the next question?" I asked Barbara, hoping I could do something besides just answer questions.

"Sure, I don't see why not." Barbara said, handing me the tablet. I looked for a good one to read, and found one by Mikasasha.

"Sasha, do you think your name has anything to do with the anime Attack On Titan?" I read the question, hearing a few giggles from Gavin and Barbara.

"I don't think it does, but if that's what my real mother had in mind when naming me, then I don't think I would care. The name makes since with the way I am." I explained, a small, sad, smile coming to my face.

I felt Barbara rub my back a little, in a comforting way. That was it for questions, even though I had wanted to continue. Barbara told me I didn't need to have a breakdown on live internet.

Even though I wanted to continue with questions, I was thankful Barbara said that was enough.

Soon we ended the podcast with everyone saying something stupid. When we got off set, I went right to the bathroom. I was thankful no one followed me, because I threw up in the toilet once the door was locked.

When I was done, I flushed the toilet and stood up. I washed out my mouth to get the taste out. I looked in the mirror, but I didn't see me as a human. I saw myself as a pure white wolf, with glowing crystal clear blue eyes.
