...but you didn't answer my question about the time length of the mission. The fic's in-universe time lasts for months to gather up the fic's charges. Is there a way to skip the unnecessary time?
When digging around "The Pit" to find a goodfic to pass the time, I found this.

Title: Luigi and Peasley's Summer Blossom
Summary: A Mario mpreg I did out of boredom. Luigi's pregnant. Who's the father? Prince Peasley! What will happen? Will it turn out okay?
What in gundarium's ghost is this?! Not only Luigi's the victim, this fic have have a Mary Sue (*three more appeared in later chapters), a canon character was killed, and some of them OOC.
What boils my blood is that the Mario series is one of my favorites so am I enraged. Consider this mine when I get permission. This is personal.
I'm making list here to see which weapon I can bring in the Mario Continuum. Correct me if I made mistakes.
-Guns: I'm sure they have guns but all of aren't lethal like real life ones. Snifits' masks count as a firearm.
-Energy Weapons: Yeah they have them.
-Flamethrowers: The snifits uses them with their masks, Bowser statues have them too.
-Fire: Fire Flowers.
-Swords: I've seen pirates wield them.
-Knives: Very rare if you ask me.
Fire flowers, yes, but why use a gun when you can throw a Koopa shell at someone? Guaranteed hilarious. And how about hammers a la Hammer Bros.? Or feeding a Sue to a pipe-plant? Chucking her under a Thwomp? Lava is always good, but not very original.
I'm not really familiar with anything after Super Mario World (which was totally awesome), so I might be missing things, but my point is that there's a lot of room to be creative in Mario, and being creative is always a good choice.
Whatever you do, you probably have to be sure the Sue is out of lives before leaving.

Since this a Mario fic, I have a sly idea. Death by Kaizo Trap!

For those who don't know about this hellish game hack:
http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/KaizoMarioWorld
You'll have to "hack" the world in which the fic takes place to do it, but thankfully, there's a way for agents to do it: Describe the badly-described scenery to re-form it the way you want.

This isn't altogether safe, because all of the laws of irony tend to apply; but it can be done and has been used (though I'm not sure it's been used as an execution method). Canon tends to help you because it wants to be rid of the sue/stu as much as you want to kill them.
Ever had a lucid dream? I think it must be a lot like that. You know you're dreaming; so you can create things and events just by expecting they'll be there and imagining them vividly enough. Only sometimes, it doesn't work well; or you can't keep the details in your mind; or you can't control things entirely because your attention wanders or you're subconsciously expecting something else to happen. (If you've not had a lucid dream, or not learned how to control them, chances are you sleep too deeply, you lucky bum, and don't get woken up every time the air conditioning switches on...)
What.
Mario mpreg. What.
Set aside some Bleeprin for your poor agents, Sneezier. They're going to need it.
Agent Joseph might needed some but Agent Centurio can't eat nor drink bleach products. He needed a special gun to erase the mind scarring. Besides, he doesn't care about mpreg but logic errors and language abuse can short him out.
I need a female agent maybe a few more to transfer the "freak" of the assbaby and to even the odds against four sues. Two of them are dangerous since they wiped out an army in one chapter. I can't solve the mpreg problem without a girl to volunteer as the surrogate mother.
One question though, can a mission last for more than month?
Have somebody from Medical "acquire" a uterine replicator from the Vorkosigan saga. :)
Wow, you're missing out. Basically: Sci-fi world with lots of idiosyncratic planetary cultures. Main character is Miles Vorkosigan, a noble with dwarfism and a secret identity as a mercenary.
The uterine replicator is basically a piece of technology that'll let a baby grow in a bottle. Lots of sci-fi worlds have them, but the Vorkosigan saga was the one I thought of first.
http://vorkosigan.wikia.com/wiki/Uterine_replicator
The other one I can remember now is Brave New World's baby-production assembly line, where babies are grown in bottles. That might be a technology adaptable to a single infant; but you'd better make sure you get the model that's used to develop Alpha babies, or else the poor kid could end up with fetal alcohol syndrome. (Yeah, Brave New World is a dystopia.)
This post actually includes the link:
http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GattacaBabies
That's a list of worlds that might have the tech to grow a baby outside of a uterus.
Star Trek and Star Wars are more well-known continua that have this technology. The PPC has been known to take technology from the Trekverse.

Your remote activator can portal you from one part of the fic to another. That includes from one time to another (time is just another dimension). Most agents skip parts of the fic where they're not likely to collect charges, or not likely to collect any *new* charges.

Some fics will skip you unwillingly past some of the time that passes. If it's poorly described or there isn't enough warning, you can get a temporal distortion, like a time skip:

Also, the Fic Location Follower:
<a href="http://ppc.wikia.com/wiki/FicLocationFollower">http://ppc.wikia.com/wiki/FicLocation_Follower
Tends to be a bit buggy, and not widely used; but can be better than getting dropped on your head after a month-long time skip.
Why not just use the Embryo Extraction Kit? It's already there in PPC canon, so why go looking for what's essentially redundant tech?
Quoting from the MPreg page on the Wiki:
"Sadly, fangirls who believe it's "cute" to have Jack Sparrow impregnated by Legolas will write what they will, and if there's nothing that logic and common sense can do to stop them, then our chances are slim to nil.
Fortunately, the Department of Sufficiently Advanced Technology has come up with a remedy for such an event: the Embryo Extraction Kit. This resembles the de-bugger used in The Matrix, but hooks up to a life-supporting receptacle, depositing the embryo into a friendlier environment than some poor canonical's intestinal tract. Since the child of Jack Sparrow and Legolas could never exist in canon, the fetuses are under the care of Medical Department until birth, after which they are placed in Canon Nursery School. "
So technically (Well, if I'm reading this right), you could use an artificial womb-like structure to transfer the embryo to, and therefore not have to worry about involving a surrogate mother.
