A very novel idea to show agents what they can expect, rather than just throwing them into their first badfic and letting them fend for themselves.

Well, here's the first 'mission' for the trainee agents, thanks to Miah for the beta and hope you enjoy.

This peeve is not mission specific - I see this in most PPC missions. Few mission authors take the time to actually describe their characters. The PPC has so many characters that it takes a huge page on the wiki to list them - I don't think it would be too much to ask for a single line of description when a character shows up.
Having agents-in-training sporking a badfic MST-style is a different and interesting way to review a badfic. I also found the subplot with the other two students amusing, and I love the idea of an Ewok agent, even though it would make dialogue a little difficult on an actual mission. Plus, using one of the Original Series missions as educational material is brilliant.
I do want to point out there are a few spelling mistakes in here, though. In particular, you've got a "Mines of Moira" mini-Balrog in there. It's a great story, but reading all those misspellings kind of breaks the mood. It's probably worth your time to read through it again and get those mistakes fixed.
Thanks for the comments Doc. If I see you in the lounge when my next mission is ready I'll ask you to beta for me. Glad the rest of the story entertained you.
