What do commas taste like? Because I've been proofreading something and if the commas were eaten, it would explain a lot.

To whom does it belong?
Because... Yes. I have the wish to use it, and must give proper credit. -
Norton Juster, perhaps? by

I don't recall specifically who or where, but there's a scene in The Phantom Tollbooth - separate from the half-baked ideas banquet, I'm pretty sure - involving edible punctuation. I seem to remember sugar-coated apostrophes being involved.

She offers Milo some candied punctuation marks. The banquet is a lot of edible puns.

Did we never make a wiki page for it?

Wasn't us. Our agents have a bag of punctuation and a hammer, so fics that seriously cry out for it, but they've never eaten it.

Ah yes, that's right. I was mixed up. Sorry. (nm) by

I haven't seen it in any missions other than my own Bad Slash mission (check out the wiki pages of Dana Trent and/or Tarian Toran for details).
But someone else may have used it before and I just don't know about it. -
