Welcome to the PPC! Have a baked potato with melted cheese on top. It's the kind of cheese with the texture of plastic, but I hope you enjoy it anyway. People call me Key, or sometimes Cat, and refer to me with the pronouns she/her/hers. Rampant nicknaming is okay. My questions for you are: How do you feel about nicknaming? Are there nicknames you hope to encourage or to avoid? What pronouns should we use when referring to you?
I couldn't help noticing that you're finding fics to spork and working on your Permission prompts already. It's great to see this enthusiasm, but I'd advise you to relax a bit. You can't even get Permission unless you've been an active member of the community for a while (around a month, I think it was?). So poke around, get to know us. The PPC is a big place; there's lots to see here. You said you were only part-way through TOS; that means you haven't even read about an exorcism, much less a WhatThe mission or multiverse theory. Of course, if you're more interested in the badfic than the PPC universe, that's okay. Just keep in mind that the universe exists and the agents' characters are important to PPC stories; this isn't MSTing. And because of this, rage often isn't the best mode to write PPC stories in; it's a levelheaded sort of sporking, because you have to write a good story around that bad one. (This is mostly a summary of things other people have said. I don't have Permission; I've only been here since March and I'm still getting to know the universe and style.)

I realize I'm a bit late, but have this Replica Holocron all the same. I don't know how much mystic lore you have to record, but you can use it for other things, and it makes a dandy conversation piece.

Have a mithral-and-darkwood shovel, just like the one used by one of my agents!
...come to think of it...
*tap tap*
...I think you should take this before Valon finds you.

Welcome one, welcome all!
Arms, legs, head, large intestine, liver, appendix, you're all welcome, mate!
You've done your study, too.
And through stalking, too! The best method of studying, in my honest opinion.
As it is customary to toss gifts the way of our newbies, I bestow upon you: an imaginary hat.
Better than a real one, because real hats can hardly quote Bilbo Baggins and teach driving lessons, can they?

*throws SPaGhetti at you* I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time here! What sort of fandoms are you in?

I found my way here exactly the same way you did! (and found C*l*br**n) Since it's customary to give newbies gifts I think I'll give you an Alicorn Amulet. I don't think it's too important to who I nicked borrowed it from.
So uh, since eatpraylove already asked what your fandoms are, What's your favorite thing about the PPC so far?

Hello, and welcome aBoard! For your newbie gift, take this plate of freshly-made SPaGhetti!
Since EPL has already asked you about the Original Series and you've mentioned the Wiki, I'll just toss you a link to the Constitution and ask you what your fandoms are.
Hope you like it here! :)

Congratulations on avoiding a tab explosion. ;) What are your fandoms? Have you read any spinoffs besides the Original Series yet? (You should also read the Original Series, BTW.) Here's a pack of sticky notes and a pen with a feather on the end!
