Printworthy, my pony name?

Hello!
So... *nervous wave* Um, hi. I've introduced myself in a different thread, but I've been told to make a seperate one.
I'm Rina, and I make up half of the RinaAndRanda team that will hopefully one day take on missions! My friend Randa and I are planning on tackling badfic together, but I'll do most of the writing (and Randa will check it over to make sure I get her agent in-character).
I stumbled across the Original Series about two weeks ago, and when I found out the PPC was still alive and going strong, of course I wanted to join- but I didn't think I'd be able to handle the job by myself. So I introduced Randa to the Original Series and asked her to team up. She said yes, obviously.
We're both really into Harry Potter (and consequently, we'll probably deal with badfics from there. We should be fine- after Sporking My Immortal a few years back, there shouldn't be much that can shock us. *knock on wood*). Other fandoms for both of us are Percy Jackson, My Little Pony, Pokemon, and Lord of the Rings (though I'm the only one who's read the books, Randa's heard me talk about them often enough that she should be able to tell what's strictly bookverse and movieverse).
Everyone I've talked to so far seems really nice. *cuddles newly acquired potato cannon* Hopefully, one day, I'll be also welcoming people to the Board. :)
Randa's probably going to be a while in posting her own entry, since her internet connection is... sporadic. We see each other every day at school, so the communication issue is really just online.
Anyway, so far, I've had a great time talking with other people. Um... I guess that's really all there is to say.
*awkward silence*

Hey Rina! (And Randa, if you're reading)
Welcome to the Board!
Since you've already got a Potato Cannon (lucky) I'll give you wilver-color potatoes! Best in the kind, just don't look at them.

Just so long as they're not Urple... by RinaAndRanda (Rina) on 2014-01-23 21:55:00 UTC Reply

Thanks, Green Armada! These'll definitely be my first choice when/if I ever send any agents into the field. :)

Wow! Thanks, everyone! by RinaAndRanda (Rina) on 2014-01-23 13:07:00 UTC Reply

@Antigone: Fudge? Fudge! *noms* Wait... Did you say one was for Randa? *guilty* Haha, don't worry, I'll give hers to her today! ;)
@Kittythekatty: Mom actually confiscated the potato cannon last night after I accidentally broke a window. Oops. Other than that, it's awesome! And oh gods, YES, Hous of Hades was AWESOME! I'm assuming you've read it, too?
@Sevenswans: Bleepka? Man, I wish I had some of this while slogging through My Immortal and Imma wiserd. *shudders* This'll be a big help; Randa would say thanks if she were here. I'll say it for both of us. :D

Hi, have some fudge! Two plates, so you can hand one to Randa next time you see her.

I see you are enjoying the potato cannon.
Have you read the House of Hades?

Here, have toast! A suspicious-looking sponge! A bottle of bleepka, and a purple paracord! You will need all these things and more to tackle badfic in the Harry Potter universe... and the Percy Jackson fics. I've dipped my toe into those waters before...
Hey, howdy, hey! by World-Jumper on 2014-01-22 20:04:00 UTC Reply

Oh, look, another pony fan! Yay! You guys are in luck, as my first mission with Marvin and Printworthy in the All Purpose: MLP Division should be coming very soon. As soon as sonofheaven and Herr Wozzeck are finished beta-reading and some minor editing, it will finally, finally be uploaded! Finally, after almost a year, it's-

...Um. Sorry, enough about me. This is about you! Two... Eh, whatever, it works.

So, now I should give you two gifts. As a fellow (and rather hardcore) brony, I shall give you an MLP related gift. Or, uh, gifts. Huh...

I have a huge amount of enchanted crystal pony statues (completely unrelated to the crystal ponies) that radiate particular emotions based off of the character you chose. Just name the pony you two want, and I'll describe the enchantment on it. Yes, you can each have one, don't worry.

@Spotted Pheasant: But... But... Isn't that a lie? Oh, well. *accepts it anyway* And hoverboards? So cool! Here, uh... *looks around* You can have this random mostly-finished Iron Man helmet my mom made. It's too big for her, so I don't think she'll mind if it goes missing.
@World-Jumper: Nah, it's fine! I don't mind hearing people talk about themselves! *cough takes attention off of me cough* Is Printworthy what your pony name would be? (I know he's one of your agents. I mean in any other cases.) I would be a yellow Pegasus pony with a green mane/tail with three pencils for my cutie mark. My name'd be Lemongrass. /) Um... You wouldn't have read Cupcakes, by any chance? If you haven't, stay away from it. *suddenly gets distracted* Ooh, crystal statues! I'll take Rainbow Dash!

PFFFT, Celestia no. I love to write, truly, I do, but I'm not that good at it. Printworthy is a writer first and foremost, and I am not. Is he my writers persona? Yes, he is, in a way. However, he is not me. My name would be... Hmm... I don't know actually. It has to relate to who I am, and somewhat connected to my special talent. I'll get back to you on that.

Ah, Rainbow Dash. Good choice. This statue, when you hold it, gives you a sense of pride, and a fire in your heart. You want to be the best you can be, and help your friends in their times of need. It also makes you a little faster, but that's unimportant.

Sweet. *hugs* Rainbow Dash is Best Pony.
And what do you mean, speed isn't important? You gotta have speed if you want to catch those Mary Sues!

I must politely disagree. by World-Jumper on 2014-01-22 20:46:00 UTC Reply

Twilight Sparkle is clearly the best pony. Her intelligence and dedication to her friends makes her a role model, while her social awkwardness and OCD make her a relatable and funny character. She is, truly, best pony.

Best Princess, on the other hoof, is Celestia. What is that? Twilight is a Princess now? Well, tell that to the writers, because it looks like they forgot too. Not that I'm complaining.

To each his own. by RinaAndRanda on 2014-01-22 20:55:00 UTC Reply

Well, you know, everyone's entitled to their own opinion. My brother likes Pinkie Pie best just because she's so random.
I'm not sure if the writers intentionally didn't give Twilight any princess duties and princess is more an honorary title, but... Hmm. I'm kind of glad, because the series hasn't changed much, but I'm also more than a little disappointed because it would have been interesting to see how they would handle Twilight's new royal duties. It would have been a good message to kids, too: being a princess isn't all about pretty dresses and getting everything you want.
Bah.
Wow, I just realized how insanely off-topic we're getting. :P

It's always nice to see new faces! Here, have two hoverboards, and a Portal-themed cake!
