As the question is not 'why' but 'why not', the proper question would not be 'do we have a parlor' but 'what thing do we not have in the PPC'? Who says we don't have a parlor?
Uh, hi guys :)
Just, y'know, dipping my toes back in the water here. I am aware that I kind of freaked out after that whole Boosette 'the PPC are bullies' thing and when I became aware that my freakout was colouring the whole PPC experience for me (a realisation that took longer than it should have) I sort of, uh, ran away.
*coughs*
But I am feeling much more stable in the brainpan on the issue now and so I am back. I just had to cut any and all meta out of my diet :)
So, anyone up for cake, jelly and icecream?
Heya Trojanhorse!
I know I saw you around back before I vanished, but now we're both back--so yay!
Glad to see you again and here, have some chocolate to replace the meta! :D
Welcome back - I've just delurked after a week away on a work shameless junket conference, and what do I see but a returned Trojie (and a few other posts).
Good to see you back around the Board.

...a 'I Glomped Troije' t-shirt!
I made 'em on short notice, so they'll all have to be One Size Fits None. But I daresay I'm not the only person with needle and thread around here.
May I have one? ^_^
I friended yours. Mine's here: http://rc88.dreamwidth.org/
I think there's some stuff up there you might not have seen, though I don't know how interested you'd be.
And Pads is the main 'admin', as it were, on the RC45 one. We don't really use it as a reading list, more just somewhere to store missions. Sorry!
There are a few things on mine I don't think you've seen, so if you wanna glance over it ...
Yaaay!
And here's some chocolate, too.
pompous/>It's great to have you back! I, a newby, heartily approve of this new and exiting direction!
But really, though, welcome back; it's wonderful to have you again, love your fics.
I'm AgentS7, a newbie. Nice to meet you! I read your DOOM fanfic sporking, and there were quite a few lulz to be had there. From what everyone's saying, you're pretty important to the PPC. I guess I'll be reading some of your missions once I finish TOS! :-)
And here--take this Shark-Launcher. (It doesn't actually launch sharks, though. It just launches Robot Sharks. They were out of the "Real Shark" kind...some kind of PETA lawsuit.)
No, not important, just been around a while, that's all :) Nice to meet you!
Of course you're important! You are our shining Slash star! You are our Trojie! *glompity*
You seem to have developed a fanbase. Is it the cake?
Otherwise, it's a little startling. Nice startling, but startling!
You've been
A) gone a loooong time
B) Pads' partner (and pads semi-recently created a stir by leaving)
C) Writing a heck of a lot
D) Taken on a Legendary Badfic
E) probably the model of a Slash Department writer. The kind we point a finger at when people say, "wha? you don't just slay Sues? Omgeezies!1!!"
Did I forget anything?
Nah, but if I stumble upon your name way more than twice on the Wikia, you've done something worthwhile. I think.
Plus, you're a Narnia fan. Who doesn't like another Narnia fan? Well, at least no one dislikes Narnia, but that's not the point...
Narnia
You're supposed to make your rounds now. The party's still going, right? It's real easy- "Yes, nice to meet you (why are all these newbs hanging around?) the cake is over there (dodges spill) thank you for the random gift (what am I going to do with this) another glomper... (aah!)yes maybe I don't know... (drifts off muttering)"
It's nice to see you again!
To commemorate this event, have a special edition sonic screwdriver with x^2 functions and a gimungous bag of jelly babies!
It's nice to hear that you're back, even if Troije and Pads are retired for good. I'm TheLowtide, a newbie around here, and I'm quite glad to see you around. Your missions were my introduction to the PPC, and I was quite sad to hear about the, um, wig-out and subsequent retirement of Pads. But it's still nice to hear that you've come back, even if it's only to chat. I guess I'll see you on the board!
Oh, and because it's already here... *Omn Noms some icecream*
I hope you liked the missions :)
I will provide lemon cake with sprinkles dotted in the frosting!
I've recently heard about the Boosette incident as well. Although I was a little discouraged about participating here after reading about it, the feeling quickly went away a few hours later.
Anyway, good to see that you're back, Trojanhorse. Hope you continue to participate as much as you possibly can.
Can I ask what the Boosette incident was? I seem to have missed it.

(feel free to call me Trojie, everyone does!)
I have nothing to give but hugs, but they don't run out. {= ) *hugs*
I'm all for cake and ice cream, but how does jelly fit in? Also, is that the sort of jelly that we would call by a different name in America?
~Neshomeh
Hugs are awesome ^_^
Jelly ... it's like, you put it in a mould and it wobbles? There are other kinds?
Sorry, I was out late last night and I'm kind of incoherent :)
Yeah, we generally refer to it by the brand-name, Jell-O, or just jello. Sometimes gelatin. Jelly is stuff that you spread on toast, like jam or marmalade or preserves, but it has no seeds or bits of stuff in it. {= )
I still wouldn't eat it alongside cake and ice cream, but then I'm not much of a fan to begin with.
~Neshomeh
... cream, custard, chocolate mousse, chocolate sauce, trifle, chocolate chips or strawberries? :)
Now you are speaking my language! *happily noms self into chocolate coma*
~Neshomeh
Let them eat cake!
*stands in the corner with mochi, then gives mochi to Trojanhorse*
You also are now the proud owner of a trench coat, a fedora, a pocket watch, and a tuxedo cat named Ariel. You now reek of class, madam.
Thanks!
(PS; feel free to call me Trojie, everyone does)
I was worried you'd dropped off the face of the earth or something. We love our oldbies.
Yes! Cake, jelly, and ice cream for everyone!
Nope, not dropped off anything really :)
Just because I know you've been working with Pads forever, and since she's still gone, I didn't know if you'd want to start up again...
If this is a sensitive subject, then I'm sorry to bring it up. I was just curious.
Because failing that I could go with 'maybe' :)
I don't think I'll ever get back to the prolificness of the past few years, and I'm pretty much definitely retiring Agent Trojie (because Trojie without Pads isn't really possible any more), but there may be a few more missions eventually.
Right now I'm more caught up in my own fic and original fiction anyway :) But as I say, we'll see!
Will you write us a nice goodbye interlude?
I can definitely understand that. I'll miss Agent!Trojie, but there's certainly plenty to read already. *bows* And I completely understand why.
And best of luck with the non-PPC-related stuff. Is it posted anywhere that I might see it?

You have been warned! :)
I really gotta get into BBC Merlin, a lot of my favorite fic authors write for it.
(Does anyone else use this line of reasoning, I wonder?)
Welcome back. I would give you a plushie!Marquis de Sod, but I gave the last one to a newbie. So, to welcome you back, here is a tiny mechanical Queen Anne's Lace.
And I will have some ice cream, thank you. *Gets a scoop of Wasabi ice cream*
-Phobos
And you brought treats. Yummy. Please take this replica Who scarf as a welcome back gift.
Good to have you back. We left the heater on in your room so it would be nice and warm for you.
This clearly calls for a celebration.
Here, have a hug from Moses. He's very huggable.
Hey, aren't you famous? Can I have an autogra- wait, never mind. Can I have some cake?
Welcome back! :)
Fair winds (back here)!
And don't forget to throw a BBQ party.
As well as all the food necessary. And all the stuff.
It'll be nice to have you back around. ^_^
...what sort of cake and ice cream? If chocolate is anywhere involved, I'm there.
All kinds. Especially chocolate.
*Must not glomp...*
It's really nice to meet you, I did actually read most if not all of your missions thanks to the wiki... and yeah. *blush*
So, um, hi! And welcome back indeed.
I am glompable :) Most of the credit for the missions goes to my very very awesome cowriters anyway!
*Glomps!*
*hands welcome-back chocolate*
... but nevermind...
*GLOMP!*
Glad to see you back~ ^_^
Glad to be back :)
Welcome back, friend! Now that you're here, cake & ice cream for all!
*eats cake* Welcome back! If you promise that you will never freak out again, I'll give you a gun.
You know, guns are dangerous if put in the hands of crazy people...
For a start, I am frightened of them. Additional issues are my habit of having panic attacks and my complete lack of depth-perception.
The thought is appreciated though :)
I should be more careful about gifts to give to newbyes or to people that get back after a while...
What about a car that folds in a case? Since an old Mary-Sueish character I used a while ago had some of them and I'm thinking of killing him I think I can get some of them.
Even if your agents do not have a driving license, it is still a shiny thing to keep in a RC. (ANd potentially funny - what happens if the folding mechanism malfunctions?)
Call out the trumpeters! Let there be dancing in the streets, drinking in the saloons, and consumption of sugary snacks in the parlor!
There should *always* be consumption of sugary snacks in it, if so.
Must not glomp talented PPCer I don't actually know. What flavors of icecream?
And there are plenty of people more talented than me on this Board!
I had just finished reading through all your missions when you went.
Yay sweets!
Not that I need to greet you, given the now-nearing-a-hundred-and-eighty-thousand-words communication-in-progress, but hello :) For the record, I've sort of been hiding away from the Board myself lately, more for lack of time and energy than Fear Of... well, something. But all's well! :)
*omnomnomnom*
Speaking of cake...
*noms cake* Welcome back!
*om nom nom nom nom*
Must have it... must have sugar...
Cake... mmm...
...yes, it's midterms week, how did you know?
Come on in, hang out. We were just talking about what makes a "strong female character"...
