Here's an in-post piece, from the Department of Intelligence.

*****

Amber Dashel was one of the few Intel Agents who still worked from her RC. She liked it that way, mostly because the sounds of other people trying to deal with what had come up on their screens put her off. A lot. It was much more peaceful in her room as she scanned, assigned and investigated fics (although that bit wasn't always so peaceful, even if she was fairly good at keeping out of sight).

On this particular day, she'd just got back from a quick lunch, bringing with her a coffee that was actually drinkable once she'd added about ten pots of creamer, and sat down at the console when it went off with one of the most ear-splitting [BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!]s she had ever heard.

She shrieked, managed to upset the lukewarm coffee down herself, and fumbled for the mute button only for the sound to be replaced by a klaxon-like wailing. A message flashed up on the screen.

[Calling all Spies. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey has been released in World One cinemas. We have already received reports of major activity on fanfic websites. Get in there and start investigating! The Action Departments will kill them as fast as resources and weaponry permit. This is a FANFIC EXPLOSION, people! Thank you.

The Sub Rosa.]


Amber stared at the screen, and then groaned and sank her face into her hands. "Well," she muttered eventually, "at least I'm not going to get bored."
