I wouldn't say that badfic has a Hitler or a Stalin, but that's essentially what I mean.

Not that we shouldn't all be rejoicing right now, but the page hosting Celebrian appears to be down. Does anyone have a copy, because I was about to spork it.

Um. C*l*br**n has already been sporked. by

Twice by a PPCer alone. hS did both a mission and an MST of it.
I'm not saying nobody else is allowed to, just that as a rule we have Claimed and Killed Badfic lists so that fics aren't done more than once. -

Don't misunderstand me, I'm not intending on doing a mission of it (although that seems to have vanished from the interwebs too). Just as there have been many MST's of My Immortal, I went ahead and did it anyway. It's the same case with Celebrian. it's just one of the things I have going on my blog.

Shouldn't we be teaming down the remaining copies and destroying them, not making new copies? The world is a slightly happier place without it.

It's like a footnote in the history of badfic, much like My Immortal.

So, you're saying that it is to the history of bad fic, what say, Hitler or Stalin were to the history of the world?

I'm sorry, Teddy, but I don't have a copy of it at all...
Now, don't call me crazy for this everyone, but am I the only who will *actually* miss it? Really, I never really figured out why everyone was so scarred of it. I just found it really boring to read. It's just a fictional story, after all. It's not real... -

The thing that got me was just how BORING the author managed to make (what was essentially) hardcore porn. You're certainly not the only one that'll miss it.

I think whoever put it on webs decided that it wasn't worth the effort? Dunno...
There's a dramatic reading under the Celebrian section of Legendary Badfic on the PPC wiki, though. -

Aye, I watched/listened to that actually. But I'm certainly not going to transcribe it!

Looks as though a transcription is your only hope, though. by

Look, just reading the plot summary was scarring... I'm still frightened and I read it several months ago!

Hmm... If I can't scavenge up a copy, I might have to do just that.

Sorry, no, I don't have a copy. I'd say "Good luck with that", but I'm not entirely sure it'd be honest. That story was scarring...
