Well, I've got two answers for you!

I'm new here, and I have two questions! by k8shortforkate on 2011-04-09 05:16:00 UTC Reply

Hello, I'm new to the site! I have two questions, however. A) Is the PPC for Lord of the Rings only? II) May I please have a bumper sticker?

Nice to meet you. Have a shining star for steering tall ships by, a fake plant for classy decoration, an extraneous door handle that I picked up somewhere, and a bumper sticker that reads "If you're reading this, I can slam on my brakes and sue you."

BTW, only one of my mission logs was for LotR, and some were for small fandoms.

Welcome to thee, fair maiden by Safireix on 2011-04-09 18:18:00 UTC Reply

At least, I presume you're a fair maiden. I don't know many boys who call themselves Kate.
-bows- Have a... um... -rummages in pockets- Huh... looks like I'm all cleaned out... here, have a spoon. -pulls a spoon out of her hair and passes it over- It's clean, I promise. (And, yes, I really do keep cutlery in my hair)
xD In any case, I'm pretty new here yourself, but I hope you enjoy it here. =D

Hair. And Spoons. by k8shortforkate on 2011-04-09 18:50:00 UTC Reply

Thank you everyone, for your collective virtual generosity!
I suppose fair maiden is right, or at least sallow if not fair, considering my hair, which I can't store spoon in easily in this style.

-laughs- I meant fair as in pretty.
And, yeah, I can only just pull it off with my hair, which is thick, but won't really get long enough to do anything worthwhile with.

Welcome, new friend! Have a bottle of glitter screen (being like sun screen, but protecting from the effects of glitter rather than those of ultraviolet radiation).

Your questions have already been answered, I shan't answer them again. That would be boring.
Anyway, have a pet cat, a tinfoil hat and a cricket bat.
By the way, about your username...that looks very Blackadder. Is it Blackadder inspired?

Thank you! Also, no, I just hadn't figured out the username vs. email thing.

Howdy!

Naw, the PPC covers whatever its writers wish it to cover - and that's a pretty wide range. I think one of the reasons we've seen a particularly high number of Lord of The Rings sporkings is because of the disproportionately large number of badfics of the unintentionally hilarious variety that've been attached to that particular franchise.

Answer 1: No, the PPC isn't for Lord of the Rings only. For example, my Agents in the DMS, Ian and Lee, are in the Freelance Division, which means they can go to any and all fandoms on their missions. Now, some people specialize in a specific fandom- my Bad Slashers Orion and Agents Mal specialize in the Stargate Atlantis fandom -but that's not the case for everyone.

As for your second question, of course you may have a bumper sticker!

*Hands over a small stack of assorted bumper stickers of various colors. The top one says "It's always a great day to kill a 'Sue!!"*

Bumper Stickers & Bad Fic by k8shortforkate on 2011-04-09 05:53:00 UTC Reply

Thanks for the bumper stickers! Yay assorted colors (and flavors, such as vanilla, fresh mint and cinnamon... now I want gum..)!

I was wondering about the variety of fictions protected because I found something I believe to be a Sue in her primordial state. The fiction "Hunters and Brains" (which hasn't -so far as I can tell- the slightest thing to do with zombies) on FF.net under "Inception" is quite... different from the canon, and is showing a few early warning signs.

There is an original character, Everbloom Dance, who is friends with Moth Song. She is a "kick but" Hunter, handles her sword well enough that people applaud, and wears guns on her thighs. She carries at least five other weapons at the same time. She is apparently going to be written as Arthur's bodyguard.

The fic is only one chapter as of yet, perhaps it is too soon to judge it. I simply wanted to provide an early warning about it.

Is this the *real* Mary Sue? by E.M.S. on 2011-04-09 06:30:00 UTC Reply

I have to say, the idea of sending agents into an Inception badfic makes my brain hurt. But then, I have a lot to learn here.

And since my plan of lurking doesn't seem to be panning out, welcome! Have a Bugs Bunny PEZ dispenser, and some PEZ to fill it with.

Hmm... by Pretzel on 2011-04-09 16:48:00 UTC Reply

I think they'd be used to dreamscapes, given the very odd nature of HQ and having to deal with time skips, bad geography, etc.
