As of writing this, there are still thirteen empty slots. Since I want to give everyone a fair chance to volunteer the agents they want, I've not been filling in the additional "if you need more people" tributes. But since replies seem to be slowing down, I've come to a decision so this isn't postponed indefinitely:

As of 6:00 PM EST tomorrow, the secondary volunteers will be added. This will, as before, be first come, first serve - that is, the earlier they were given up, the more likely it'll be that they actually get in. Unless I find someone I just especially want to write in, in which case I declare that I'm running this and therefore get to take pleasure in having some specific names that make me smile. I'm sure everyone knows how that goes, and if you decide you don't like it... okay I'll probably change it if you come tell me it made you mad.

. . . seeing as I've barely given him any screen time so far!

If so I'll be sending Agents Theo and Cinnabar in. Let's set this place alight!

Then, as promised, my entries:

1. Jacques Bonnefoy ("wizard!Jacques"). 25 year old wizard of Scottish and French parentage from a Potterverse fusion. Mortal.

2. Jacques Bonnefoy ("Canon!Jacques"). 150+ year old immortal human from the 51st century, aka the one you can find on the wiki.

3. Jacques Bonnefoy ("EPC!Jacques"). 150+ year old immortal (and immoral!) human from the 51st century, aka the one from the the Mirrorverse who wears a lot more black.

4. Jacques Bonnefoy ("Young!Jacques"). 21 year old human from the 51st century. Very recently a Time Agent. Mortal.

Because the joke that my entry would be four versions of Jacques was made, and I found the idea of actually doing it hilarious. Enjoy? :D

Seung-Li Kim, Lilac Mauveridge, Salvo, and Velociripper!

Same two agents-to-be as last time, CSF Officer Larkus Grun and Turff-Croft A.K.A. Curff the Sorcerer. Last time I got sidetracked by a six hundred mile road trip after the first interview, hopefully this time I'll actually get to stick with it.

Derik and Gall want in for sure. If you need extras, you can throw Caprice and Shimon into the mix, as well.

I may not be able to reply much in the next few days, but I'll try to keep up with it while I'm on vacation.

I volunteer Kaitlyn and Selene as tribute, and if there's room after that, I'll throw Morgan and - why not? - Dafydd into the mix too.

Can't wait!

I'll toss Apecian and Michael into this one and hope they can get somewhere. It'll help me get back into the swing of things. Maybe. ... Very maybe.

Kat isn’t allowed her ymbryne powers as that makes her way too OP.

Edward: I’m treating this as a training exercise. If I can survive half of HQ then I can survive any Sue, however powerful.

Kat: That and you want to be bloodthirsty without causing any actual damage. Anyway, I’m only joining to support Edward. Not expecting to be much use with my sub-par fighting skills, but anything’s better than endless Suefics.

Marina gets a chance to continue her little vandetta with the PPCHG staff, Richard a chance for more training in really extreme situations.

Farah Tahar, Crossovers (hani): "Well, we've had a few close calls recently, and I figure I could use some combat practice. I hope."

Kkukttak[1], Crossovers (kif): "I could use this to prove my worth, and also to learn more about other agents and how they fight. I should sign up."

Taq, Mary Sues (Tolkienverse orc): [just a bit after the sign-up deadline] "Hey, hey, can I still get in, please? This sounds like a good time!" (In other words, toss him in if you need more people)

Peregrin, Mary Sues (Human, Anathem-verse avout): [several days after the deadline, while checking email] "Oh, the Henger Games are being organized again ... Huh, must have not noticed. Oh well. No time right now anyway." (That is, he's not in)

- Tomash

[1]: Please note that, since I'm not sure the apostrophe that used to be in his name was canonically possible, it has been replaced until I check

I'll chuck in old mates Finch and Bingle and, if you need more, I suppose, Ninetwo and Anne, as well.

Bloodshed! Murder! Kill them! And a good riddance!

If those are allowed from literally whos, then throw Amber into the thing and may the odds be ever in her favor.

The Aviator and Zeb are always my first nominees, of course. :P If you end up needing more agents to fill slots, feel free to drag in Ix and Charlotte, and Lorson and Dax, but I'll leave that open for other people to sign up first.

I'll nominate the Detective to fight in my stead, though, since I'm not feeling particularly like swinging any punches. Jack deserves a chance to sit this one out, though. Maybe comments from the peanut gallery.

Onwards, fictional minions! Conduct brutal, bloody combat for my personal amusement!

I would like to volunteer my one and only agent, Ce'rana of Borune.

"Allow me to make it entirely clear that my participation was not my idea. It was my partner's. However, I cannot say it will not be fun. The best of luck to all my fellow competitors."

And I shall send... Thoth, O'course!
