I think I'm most proud of the cowrite we did with James Shields. I got to explore my characters a little bit, something my solo missions tend to lack, and now I have some ideas for Violet's gemsona that I could explore if I do a Steven Universe fic in the future. Plus, I find cowrites more fun than writing a mission solo in general.
As far as my favorite mission ever? If I had to choose, I'd say Sergio Turbo's Blank Sprite, for the same reasons he said it was his favorite.

1°), Wrong Start. Yeah, I had some problems with it, but that was my first one, and I was rather proud of finally writing my onw PPC missons. Closely behind is He Burns.
2°) Well, since you cheat by asking us only one mission out of all the ones here we like, allow me to cheat back by giving the whole Rose Potter series. RinArin is still my favorite agent, and this mission is just one big cornerstore in her and Zeb's story.

1) Ein Fröhliche Weihnachten mit Doktor Trollenfisch und Gabrielle! (Link.)
I'm a comedian. This is not blowing my own horn - I do standup, and have done on and off for years, and I'm pretty good at it. Fröhliche Weihnachten is just about the funniest thing I've ever written, at least in part because I bounced off of Iximaz so well. This is the mission wherein I took on a Legendary Badfic by accident, and rather than make it all about how infamously bad it is, it's mostly about the Doktor und Gabrielle and building their character through sharing a very, very stupid fic. I reckon that's a good way to do it.
2) ... I plead the Fifth. (Link not here.)
It's really hard for me to pick a favourite from the stuff I've read. Anything from Driftwood, Derik and Gall's missions, mid-period JulyFlame... it's all excellent stuff, and frankly I don't want to pick a favourite. What I love most about the PPC is that it's all shared; the individual missions all serve to build a massive, sprawling world-and-mirror-of-worlds that enhances every subsequent mission after it. This is a wonderful setting in which to write, and I'm proud and honoured to be a part of it. =]

Those of you who haven't published anything yet, or haven't gotten Permission, are still free to answer Question 2. This is a question about your favorite mission you've ever read, after all!

I'm not sure it qualifies as it's not exactly a mission and it's still ongoing, but I'd say Blank Sprite. Why? Because I've come up with something very complex on meta level, and turns out I'm actually making it work.
On normal missions, it's a draw between Legendary Illogic (cowritten with Firemagic), because we found a way to hoist an extremely powerful Sue with her own petards (and we had fun deliberately keeping every charge to see if it could reach record chargelist lenght. IT DID... and ended up being an hassle to read as a result), and An Overabundance of Turbochargers and Cherry Flowers, because... well, I've missioned an old shame of mine. Makes me feel much better about Avalon: Last Rebel having ever esisted, especially since I got a second chance to write the characters from it RIGHT by recruiting them.
Favourite mission by somebody else?... But I like ALL OF THEM! Ahem, let's see. I think it might be All Through With This Niceness and Negotiation Stuff, by Desdendelle, Firemagic and Maslab, because of the sheer determination the Boarders and their Agents needed to get through that terrible trainwreck, and how the Agents used every single bit of their skills to get it done. You can feel how desperate their stuggle is. Well done, guys. Well done.

1) My own writings suck. Bad. I'm not proud of any of it. The closest runner is Hip and Hop's first mission - "Lady and the Tramp: Jurassic Edition". As for co-writes, I've only done one with eatpraylove - "Canon's Bane" - and one interlude cameo with Ixi so... that's it.
2) Oh that's also easy... The absolute favourite is the Holy Grail of Appropriately Ironic Assassinations - "He Was Practically Asking For It" by our one and only Ixi of the Mazes.
