Mission 2: The Spoiled Sue (warning for cursing and bl11)
I'm gonna wait to crosspost for a little bit, give people time to comment. I hope you all enjoy. It's shorter than the first.
The vacation interlude might not be the next thing I post, but only because I'm having difficulty writing it. The next mission is gonna be really cursed, though, so beware when that comes along (And it might be multi-parted, too).
Thanks again to Cicada for coming up with the paragraph for the Flowers because I cannot write them for the life of me lol.

The characters t-posing and the Sue rolling around in glitter while tantrumming were funny mental images!
Also, the Sue was indeed spoiled.

I love all the ways you presented the Drusleys. The t-posing scene was the best by far, but all their wooden movements and deadpan word delivery was extremely amusing! And poor Madeline being inside the table . . . I like to think they were happy to blend back into canon just to get her out of there! The idea of a mansion in the middle of Privet Drive is hilarious, too. Imagine how envious Vernon and Petunia would have been! I also like the idea of the PPC-themed card deck, and wonder what all the faces are . . .
Glad to hear more of Null's backstory, and the unusual circumstances of his recruitment, too. Should be fun meeting his family and seeing how they adjust to the PPC setting!
A couple errors, both coincidentally involving Paye's name:
Paue ignored him and read the mission report on the console.
[Paye] bought lots of books with the money.
(I think that's supposed to be Emily's name in the brackets.)
—doctorlit thinks Emily at least had good taste in shopping priorities
Again, I can't say that the interlude will be the next thing I publish, PPC-wise (I'm actually getting more done on the third mission than I am on the interlude) but I can say it will be published.
Eventually.
In other news, I crossposted it to AO3. Can't link it now (a bit busy) but I will try to link it later.
-kA, who didn't even realize that Paye's name replaced Emily's, although it makes sense for Paye to buy books.
...that fic sure doesn't show what it's telling (and that's from me skinning the badfic quotes)
David and Paye are a fun pair to read about and I'm looking forward to them maybe getting to know each other more on vacation.
As to the mission, the only criticism I can think of is that the quote and comment segment (before the cards came out) may have been a bit long, but that could also just be me.
