1. No, don't post the entire fic elsewhere. If the writer took it down, then it should stay down. Complete the mission, but note that it's a deleted fic.
   
   2. Yes, jumping unnecessary and repetetive moments via Remote Activator (aka the "portal thingy") is very popular with Agents. Skip to the chargeable bits and save your Agents' sanity.
   
   3. If it's a LOTR canon-beta you're looking for, I could do it. That's one of my most favoured fandoms. You can get in touch with me at cassie.dramateacher AT googlemail.com if you'd like.

Thankfully, these are all questions I've dealt with before. So here we go...

1) Generally, it's seen as being in bad taste to reproduce a fanfic on the internet if it's been deleted. Trust me, I did it once, and it didn't really go over that well.

2) Yes. One of the great things about portals is that you can skip the less brain-killing moments and get to the meat of the action, and I think you'll find that some of us do it a lot.

3) I don't know if I can help you with a beta reader, but I know that July, Data, Nesh, Aster, or VM would be willing to help in this situation. Just ask around, and you should receive at some point.
