Double Mission Time by Meta on 2011-06-15 20:42:00 UTC Reply

The latest training 'mission' for the rookie agents is now available. It can be found here:

Not only that, but I've gone back in time and written up the original killing of the fic as well, which can be found here:

I've had trouble finding beta's for them so I appologise if there's anything stupid been missed. If you fancy betaing while you read feel free.

Nicely done! by OpinionedAngel on 2011-06-16 12:59:00 UTC Reply

Nice job on the sporking for both badfics.

Also, I really like Agent Arthur for a number of reasons, mainly because he is a pop culture wielding Junkion who can transform into a //Delorean//!

...I think my brain got overwhelmed by my nerdy impulses for a moment there...

Did you miss Aragon the mini?

But Makes-Things! Hoorah! I should really write a ficlet about my (future) agents finding out. One of them was in DoSAT during the invasion. Well, part of. Not actually IN.

And it wouldn't be a mission, so I figure I'm allowed to write it without Permission... :D

Actually, no. by Neshomeh on 2011-06-16 15:43:00 UTC Reply

Permission isn't just about missions, it's for anything that happens in the PPC's continuity. For example, interludes aren't missions, and departments like FicPsych and Operations don't have missions, but you still need Permission to write a story about any of them because they still take place in the shared universe that is the PPC.

Make sense?

I must have missed something when interpreting that part of the wiki, then.

Ah well. Shall still write ficlet. Shall just not post it anywhere.

You're still considered a PPCer for hanging around, you're in the PPC community if you hang out on the 'Board, even if you don't have Permission, and having Permission by no means gives anyone more of a say in matters discussed here or there.

I just wanted to point that out, since it's kind of becoming, as someone pointed out above, a rite of passage that everyone feels like they need to go through to Really Belong, which is unnecessary and detracts, I think, from the overall feel of the community. We're all equals here.

Good stuff! by doctorlit on 2011-06-15 21:42:00 UTC Reply

You were able to essentially spork the same fic twice without making the two stories redundant, and both are enjoyable. I love, love, LOVE Agent Arthur to death, and I had never even heard of the Junkions before this mission! He's got a lot of comedy potential, though I can only imagine he's pretty tricky to write dialogue for.

I think I had about a dozen different TV quote sites open while writting the mission. Not to mention I had the 60's Batman series playing on the TV, hence the bulk of the quotes for this mission came from there. I'll pick a different series for the quotes next time around.
