Well, this is interesting. :)
It's been several years since my last run-in with the PPC, and appear to have missed out on a great many developments. It should be interesting to get back in the snarker's saddle, since it's been equally long since my last MST.
As far as interests go : I am rather well-read as far as fiction goes, with a great many obscure (and ancient) science-fiction and fantasy series accounted for. Tolkien has historically been my main haunt as far as fanfiction is concerned, with a foray into Potterverse.
I don't have major dislikes in fanfiction; I generally don't read romance though, as it doesn't interest me too much. I am fond of Assimilation Plot stories, though.
(If you hadn't guessed, I am also a Tv-Tropes addict.)
Good to see you all. :) -

As a fellow TV Tropes fanboy, I give you a bag of holding. Don't put another unless you want to break a portion of reality.

I always wondered what would happen if one stored Bags of Holding inside a Bag of Holding. Hmmmm...
Thx. :) -

Welcome back!
Have a pet cat and a Pie of Rassilon. You may name the pie whatever you wish, and eat the cat. No, that's not right. -

and a nice padded shield in pointy, heavy and wieldable, or other kinds of dangerous things come out during a discussion. Nice to have you.

I was absent from the PPC for awhile too and was greeted with much enthusiasm, so I am passing it on. Welcome back!I am happy to meet you and am wondering what kind of obscure science fiction and fantasy stories you have read. I am always looking for new books to read. What are some of your favorites?

It's nice to see things haven't changed too much, though I have my personal gripes with some things that I'm sure will come up sooner or later. They always do. :P
Regarding Fantasy/Sci-Fi... I have this list, you see... A list of books I have access to in one form or another. It has grown somewhat over the years, to become rather, ahem, gigantic. I shall post it at a later time, so you may browse it (It has read items marked off) - Suffice to say, the list itself in pure text is nearly a megabyte. -

Have a magic ball! I'm not entirely sure what it does, but I do know that it influences coffee machines in wonderful, mysterious ways.

Welcome, friend who would be new except I met you in the chat recently, it seems!
Have some unpublished sci-fi and fantasy novels by long-dead, now unknown authors! -
Welcome back, then~! by

I don't recognize you at all but it is nice to meet you, and I hope you stick around again. :) As a welcome-back gift, please accept this leash-and-harness set; they're flame-retardant and perfectly sized for brains. (Or the other way 'round, if it tickles your fancy.)
Hope to catch you 'round the IRC sometime. -

Hi,
Welcome (back). Have a radioactive fish and and a vial of Aperture Science Deadly Neurotoxin. Both will prove very useful against Sues.
PS: TVTropes is awesome! -

Would you be the mysterious Ra that I talked to on the IRC channel? If so, hi again! Also, have a bag of pebbles and a Random Shiny Object s a welcome-back gift.

Indeed, that would be me. I go by various nicknames based upon pagan deities - most frequently Odin or Ra for obscure reasons. Ra in particular is related to an old nickname which was often shortened to the initials RA. ;)
Also, thanks you for the pebbles - If I ever lose my marbles I can fashion new ones - and the Shiny object. -

I'm not entirely sure what would happen, but I'll be sure to remember that warning. Much appreciated. ;)
