I was wondering what T_M meant by being back. As well as the location of the mission that Diocletain and Suicide went missing out of.^^,
For the authors, I think the Wiki might be helpful - that's how I figured out what you were referencing. And the other possibility is that people might be thinking that you've been the one writing Diocletain and Suicide.
Fantastic! The time-traveling portion was a little difficult to follow, but the ending was absolutely terrific.
How might we have improved the time-travel to make it easier to follow? It is not that I am planning to do anymore time-traveling with these agents, but it is always good to know.
I don't know much at all about the canons involved, but I really enjoyed this mission. That was an impressive amount of work!
Anyway, greatly enjoyed it. Very nice mission, and welcome back Suicide and Diocletian!
I love the way you worked the Board activities into the mission. How long had you all been planning this food fight?
The food fight was a spur-of-the-moment thing that I decided one night. I turned to Nesh and said something along the lines of "You know, I think it is about time for a food fight on the board." And then I instigated one to the best of my abilities.
The epilogue section with the food fight was because it was still fresh in my mind and I decided that it would be good to use it. So yeah, no planning involved at all.
Glad you liked the mission. Tune in next time. Same Troll time, same Troll channel.
I am in a group of FIVE people and co-write a... thing that would drive an entire department mad. It's a mega-crossover that started as a parody, but evolved into a more serious story.However, I was 14 when we begun, and the others even younger (one as 9), so it's quite a bad-witten thing at the beginning, but now we write better (it was our "writing gym", we used it to improve). It has a double Creativity Shield and it is placed in an AU, just to avoid troubles, since there are too much things that would cause troubles to canons. Just a small list: Sakura and Li from Card Captor Sakura break up (and that erases Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle from existance), it's revealed that Voldemort was good while Albus Silente and Harry Potter evil, and a lot of things that usually would be charges. However, we are trying to save the good original plot and characters for an original story.
With specific regards to Harry Potter, one of the reasons for name translation, at least of Voldemort's name, is to maintain the anagram ("Tom Marvolo Riddle" —> "I am Lord Voldemort"). Thus, in French, he's "Tom Elvis Jedusor" to allow for "je suis Voldemort".
But "Voldemort" doesn't change, even though it actually means something in French.
Presumably someone figured if they were going to translate one of the names, they might as well do more than one.
Since it is a sort of "writing gym" it doesn't have an end, there are many arc, every one with its plot. Currently, it has something like 200+ pages.
However, we are planning to use the Original Characters and some of the plot in an original fiction, or maybe in a book.
And, yes. In Italy Albus Dumbledore is known as Silente. It's mainly to give a meaning in Italian, "silente" means "silent", but usually is used with the meaning of "silent and wise"
Not to make us seem like attention whores, but... No reaction to the ending at all? Really? I thought people would be a lot more excited. Are you all THAT new, that this holds no significance for you? Or did we really screw up and make it not a surprise and/or interesting at all? O.o
~Neshomeh, pleased at the positive responses (thanks for commenting!), but very confused.
At first I thought you were the one who wrote Agents Suicide and Diocletain, mainly cause the preserved archive doesn't have TM down as the author.
Not to mention that I was gone when TM retired, and I could've sworn I've seen the name floating around the posting board for some reason.
Eeee! Is T_M back?
I see, I see. Perhaps that's what is tricking everyone else, too. Well, anyway, yes: our guest author is Tungsten_Monk, who is back. At least until certain unfinished business is seen to. Muahaha. *eg*
And yeah, the lack of author-naming is currently a flaw in the Lost Tales archive. The trouble is that sometimes I don't know who the author was, or if there were two, or if they just went by their agent's name, and suchlike. But still, I should fix that.

Thank the Bronze Dragonflight!
I saw a misspelling of "barbel," but that's no big deal. I literally laughed out loud at the "desidion."
Draenei tail swat = epic.
I'm liking the "wrong target" twist, flirty dragons, the use of "foul dwimmerlaik," and dragonhawk-in-the-face.
And at last, we know why the cafeteria has that sign.
And most enjoyable with chocolate coated popcorn.
And excellent choice of snack.
