So, a potential RP idea ... by

It doesn't qualify as a "crisis", but it could be fun. See, I was watching My Little Pony (yeah, yeah - it's actually pretty good) and got into a discussion with a friend about the RP-starting possibilities of Poison Joke. This is a magical plant which causes the victim to suffer magical effects which are harmless but embarrassing. On the show, these included uncontrolled hair growth, bodily shrinkage, tongue swelling, changing a female character's voice to that of a male, causing a unicorn's horn to go limp, and causing a flying horse's wings to be attached upside-down. The effects are usually related to the victim's personality, e.g. the swollen tongue was suffered by a very talkative character. It's easily cured by a herbal bath, and the effects aren't dangerous beyond embarrassment. I propose that, as a prank, someone sneaks some into the HQ airvents/laundry/wherever, causing several agents to suffer its effects. Hilarity ensues. Thoughts?

This has my support. Should my internet connection prove cooperative, I should be able to participate.

That would be hilarious! The question is how strong is it? By which I mean, how many people would it affect?

Anyone whose writer wants them to be affected, I think :) (nm) by

I like it. I think the Ironic Overpower would like Poison Joke. :P
That, and as you may already know, I'm a brony, and therefore I'm automatically biased towards anything to do with MLP. ;) -

This sounds somewhat entertaining. I can see it having amusing repercussions.

Plenty of potential for making Agents' lives hell (that is why we write missions, no?), but shouldn't cause any lasting damage!
Interesting psychology exercise in determining what the "appropriate" embarrasment for each Agent would be.

This sounds hilarious! If I had agents to RP with, I'd love to do this.
I don't consider myself a brony, but I love MLP. MLP is proof that with enough writing talent, you can make anything awesome. -
Interesting, in terms of demographics. by

There seem to be a surprising number of bronies in the PPC, myself included...

that show is good. And it traps you. I watched on a dare and got hooked.

Especially if it works on the flowers.
Although, if we do introduce this, won't it make luxury... not that flirtatious? and actually okay to be around?
although can totally see a pranksters pulling this for laughs. -

I like the idea very much. If it works out, give me a link. Could be fun.

But... if my permission request goes through and HQ DOES get upwards of 50000 temporary guests while a Star Destroyer gets hosed out, it may even more messy.
Of course, the maintenance and the introduction of the Poison Joke may actually be related.
