Hello, PPC Board.
I've read the major OFUs, the Wiki, TOS and a bunch of other mission reports, and most of the already published PPC history. People with Legendary Badfic links at the ready, you needn't bother. I've already sat through some, including C*l*b*i*n and Draco's Christmas Cuppa. Without throwing up. I suspect this is derived from both iron will and insanity.
I'm a Grammar Nazi and a die-hard canon nut. I don't normally write though, I'm not that good. No published works so far, and no desire to write Missions for a long time.
I know some information about certain canons I haven't read too much of the original material of, such as H2G2, Discworld, and LOTR. Rest assured that I will get around to reading all of these, so put the weapons away.
Oh! One more thing. I brought a present, but I'm not sure who can actually use it. It is an Ion Canon, created by a Command and Conquer misspelling. Any Agent in a universe with large orbital lasers can have it sent in, I think. Hope you'll be able to find a use for it.
A last note, before I forget. Are there still Ypurs available, and are they available to non-Agents? I want to adopt one, they look cute. -

You've read C*l*br**n? I'VE read "Violation of the Evenstar!" And That Series! Nyeeer. -
Nice, you have a high level of squick-resistance. by

If I could find links to all of those 'fics, I'd get around to reading them right away. I really should read every Legendary Badfic at least once...

You can love it, stroke it, feed it (Only chocolate flecks though). Alternatively, you can eat it.
And the Ypurs are my jurisdiction for now. As there are over eight hundred of them by this point, you can definitely take one. Did you want an Urple, Wilver or Bleen one? Or just a regular coloured one like turquiose, crimson, veridian or ochre? -
Whichever's the most blinding color of ypur, please. by

I'm sure that I can handle looking at the one I get, being able to read the entirety of a Legendary Badfic without turning away. Legendary badfics are also eye-burning, so logically, it's possible... Now, the only problem is the name. I'm horrible with names, no matter what they're for.
Oh, and by the way, what's turquiose? -
You'll be after an Urple Ypur then. by

Silly twit decided to run into a portal to HFA and got absolutely covered in the stuff. I'll leave the name to you though.
And turquiose is... a colour that's almost turquoise, except a certain person tends to type so fast he doesn't notice misspellings, and hence the creation of turquiose. I'll go speak with that naughty Boarder. *Looks shifty* -

Shame on me!
Anyway, have an egg whisk. It's shiny, gold-plated, and, hey, it whisks eggs! You can also use it to whisk spambots and author wraiths, if you like. And here, have some Belgian chocolates, too.

Here, have some psychic paper. It's always useful. Just don't let it get you in trouble...

Psychic paper? by

What's that exactly? Paper that is psychic or paper used by psychics?

The paper itself is psychic, although if the viewer is psychic, they see it only as a bit of paper. But it shows whatever you want to be shown. And if your mind is wandering, well...It's from Doctor Who, in any event.

Paper that allows whoever's holding it to show people what the want to see. If, for example, you needed to get into a heavily defended enemy base, you could show the guard the paper and they'd think you were the delivery boy or a higher ranked officer with access rights, depending what's more appropriate.

Obligatory Monty Python Quote!
"The swallow may fly south with the sun, or the house martin or the plover seek warmer hot lands in winter, yet these are not strangers to our land." Oh, and by the way, what is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?
TARDIS or RC? Well, if I ever have Agents, anyway... Let's see, uh... Not quite sure, actually. I need to think about that. And watch Doctor Who before making any decisions. -

You sound like you'll fit right in - nice to meet you! I'm not sure who runs the ypur adoptions, but they'll probably reply here sooner or later. :)
Cheers!

Where do you get those transdimensional pocket knives? by

I want one, and I can actually pay for it if needed. I have a few billion HL from the Disgaea continuum (Not too hard to get that amount, really), a few hundred thousand Republic Credits, a bunch of lightsaber crystals (Three Stygiums, couple Kaiburrs, a few Hurrikaines, one Krayt pearl, and a lambent), and a full set of Morrowind glass equipment. Yeah, I came prepared. Game 'verses always have loads of free loot that isn't story-related, so I picked up a few things.

First flamethrower axe! by
on 2008-11-23 19:53:00 UTC
Reply
Yes, you read that right. An axe that shoots fire due to a flamethrower component being added to it. Coolest weapon since chainswords, I say. There should still be Ypurs to go around, as Neshomeh said, and I'm sure we'll find a use for the Ion Canon. Probably give it to DOGA if nothing else, and we can always put it in the Armoury. It's impressive that you've managed to read that much, especially the Legendary Badfics, it sounds like you're gonna fit right in. Can't wait to see your agents when you finally try for permission!

Agents? Probably not for a very, very long time. I'm horrible with names, bad with character development, and not that good with witty banter. I'll just stick to reporting badfic or something for now.

I think there are plenty of Ypurs to go around. I don't see why anyone who wants one shouldn't have one. I don't run the adoptions, though.
As for the Ion Canon, I'm sure someone will think of something to do with it. *g*

Have a P-90. Since you've been to the Wiki and everything, I won't spam you with links. I will recommend keeping an eye out for July though, since she tends to give rabies when she can't give links.
Come in, we don't bite (mostly) and your sanity can go in that slot marked 'Incinerator' over there. You won't need it here.
