I hope you're here to stay too, especially if you were lurking around for so much time.
Let me give you this bag of a special brand of dark chocolate, with so much cocoa they're sucking up the light.
Hello! I'm Quihi, a newbie to the PPC. I actually discovered the PPC about 2 years ago and posted once or twice on the board as Quiet Hiker before discovering I was really too busy to ever visit the Board. Now I've been looking at the wiki and the Board regularly for about a month, and I'm hoping to actually stick around this time. I'm not sure how often I'll actually be able to post, but I feel awkward just stalking the PPC.
My favorite fandoms are pretty basic: Lord of the Rings, some Harry Potter, Chronicles of Narnia, and Percy Jackson along with some smaller ones like The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Secret Series.
I have indeed read the Constitution and some of the FAQs, and the Original Series (and saved that to to my iPod so I can reread it again, for that matter).
I can't think if I'm missing anything, so hello!
Sorry for the late reply, but welcome to the madhouse! Here's a T-rex tooth, a fist-sized ammolite stone, a model hydra skeleton, and a wall map of Middle Earth!
Thanks for all the gifts!
I don't really want to reply to each post individually since I think I've gotten the hang of posting.
Have some Swiss Chocolate.
I was quite a bit of a lurker myself. We also share the HP fandom, so... *high-fives*
Have a Rorschach Book. Hold it with your eyes closed, think about what you wanna read, blink on purpose three times and it should have changed.
I love the Secret Series and the MBS Series as well. So good!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who has read those books!
Welcome aBoard! Have this pomelo. Uh, no, wait, that's a grapefruit. No, wait, that's a pomelo. Uh, no-- Oh, whatever.
Have an urple ocarina, shrill as a Sue's singing voice!
Another Chronicles of Narnia fan: wonderful! I love those books. Anyway, welcome to the Board!
-Alleb
Welcome (back?) to the PPC! Have some Bloffee - I'm sure you'll need it soon enough.
Welcome to the board and take this invisible light pen.
Now, for your gift... A pen that does stuff. Uncap it to find out what. It will most certainly not hurt you. Maybe. Just point it away from your face and I'm sure it will be fine.
Hope you stick around! Here's a pack of index cards and a generic blue pen! (Sorry for the lame presents. College is hella expensive.)
Here's your starter Pokémon:
Iiiiiit's Cloyster!
And your starting item is:
Soldier's Syringe from Risk of Rain!
Now, Soldier's Syringe is a pretty nice item in both in-game and competitive play. What it does is act like a better Hone Claws, with a 50% chance to boost your Attack, Accuracy, or Speed by 1 stage every time you take damage from a contact move. On Cloyster, it works quite well, because you can switch into one and get a free boost before you Shell Smash and sweep 4 daze. =]
Glad to have another Percy Jackson fan here. We sure need those!
Here, have a Senzu Bean! *throws*
Hey, newbie! Welcome to the community. What's your preferred pronoun? Here, have this cup of tea, which most definitely won't shout at you like a drill sergeant then try to eat your face when you're not looking, no siree.
Thank you for the tea! I think!
Depending on the situation and speaker, I like she, her, and hers. I also like I, me, mine, you, your, yours, and the appropriate corresponding plural pronouns. *checks old English notebook* Oh, and my.
*head tilt* We interacted on the Pit a few times, didn't we? Nice to see you on the Board!
Anyway, welcome (back) aBoard! For your returnbie gift, take this plate of freshly-made SPaGhetti!
Let's see, since you already know where to find the required reading, I'll just leave you with a list of my favorite spin-offs.
Hope you like it here! :D
Have a shovel that can fly!
Out of curiosity, can you ride on the shovel while it flies, or does it just go and have underground adventures on its own?
I hope you're here to stay too, especially if you were lurking around for so much time.
Let me give you this bag of a special brand of dark chocolate, with so much cocoa they're sucking up the light.
Have one of my own shed feathers, a working replica of Riptide, a One Ring expy that turns you invisible, and a Golden Snitch with a Poké Ball engraving!
