Fake Geek Girl Part 5

Thank you so much to everyone who nominated "Fake Geek Girl" for a Ditmar, and congratulations to all the nominees. "Fake Geek Girl," was originally published in Review of Australian Fiction Volume 14, Issue 4. You can buy the issue containing the story (along with a fantastic piece from Stephanie Lai) directly from their website. Meet Fake Geek Girl, the band that plays nerdy songs at the university bar every Friday night, to a mixture of magical and non-magical students: lead singer Holly writes songs based on her twin sister Hebe's love of geek culture though she doesn't really understand it; drummer Sage is an explosive sorcerous genius obsessing over whether Holly's about to quit the band to go mainstream; shy Juniper only just worked up the nerve to sing her own song in public and keeps a Jane Austen themed diary chronicling the lives and loves of her friends. When the mysterious, privileged Ferd joins their share house, everything starts to unravel... In Part 5, Hebe and the Magical Fire Alarm Meet-Cute, we learn the specific problems that come with fire safety in magical share houses, and Hebe finally starts to figure out what Ferd's deal is anyway.
