Subject: Question regarding unfinished fic

In Februari/March 2007 I started PPCing a fic that at that time was not yet finished. There are two Sues in that fic (one male, one female) and the canon characters barely make an apparence. And when they do they seem quite OOC. The mission has long since run a dead spot, 'cause there was no more story. I initially deemed it too early yet to kill the Sues 'cause despite being Sues and gross deformation of character of a diversity of military institutions (and not researching whether there is actually moon or sun light at 4am on 24 august) the number of crimes against canon are slim. Just that each of the canon characters did one thing they would never ever do, and it isn't specified whether the canons have age 20 years or the story is AU.

So, I'm caught in a dilemma. I read what I had written so far again this weekend and it's one of the funniest missions I've ever written and it be a shame to let those jokes go to waste (and there is only a very slim chance I will ever be able to use the one about the date and moon calander again). There's plenty of evidence and grounds to charge the Sues with being Sues, not doing research or even take grammar lessons, but there's hardly any canon breakage (unless you take real world military as part of canon (which you can considering the canon supposes it is part of the real world), 'cause then there is plenty of breakage).

Any thoughts on whether I should go ahead and charge the Sues, or just forget there ever was this mission? Did I mention that one of my agents is quite psyched about encountering her first male Sue?
