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 9, A Gentlewitch’s guide to Saving the World, by Miss Juniper Cresswell, Esquire, our girl Juniper outlines her 13 step plan to prevent the band and its internal friendships from a messy implosion. Her secret weapon? Ferdinand Chauvelin. Her other secret weapons? Costume drama and cake. Missed previous episodes?
