Uhm, hey there y'all! I'm not really sure how to go about introducing myself, and, to be honest, I'm a little nervous. I've been reading the PPC stories and being a general lurker for a good few years now (four), and I've finally worked up the courage to say hello, after fighting with the registration system (I've never been technologically-inclined). Anyhoo, I'm happy to be here, and would love to get to know everyone!

Have a legion of miniature panda bears as your housewarming gift. Your reign of terror is now within reach! /*maniacal laugh*/

Welcome to the PPC. :D

Awesome, thanks!
...Can I use them to terrorize 'Sues?

Sues, fellow agents, Flowers, continents, neighboring galaxies... Your wish is their command. :)

Very!

Helloou! by TopHatOfDoom on 2013-08-27 04:11:00 UTC Reply

Yay for lurking! And shame about the board. It does so enjoy making us all jump through hoops to do join.

And, as a welcome-to-the-jungle gift, here is a top hat kitten! It combines the best features of top hats and adorable small cats. Just, you know, don't try to figure out how it fits together. Because of the seizures, you know.

Thanks! I originally took it as either a kitten with a top hat, or a top hat with a cat-like feel to it. Either way, it's dapper.

So, what'cha up to? It's nice to meet ya!
I have an idea. by DemonFiren on 2013-08-27 04:33:00 UTC Reply

It's a tophat made of cat fur, but they forgot to remove the fur from the cat.

Enjoy your sweet dreams.

Is it wrong that I just laughed for about 15 minutes solid at that, and then tried to figure out where best to fit the internal organs?

It is. Beautifully so. (nm) by DemonFiren on 2013-08-27 06:05:00 UTC Reply

Another ex-lurker, eh? Welcome; we don't bite!

Since you've been around for years, you might already be able to answered the first two questions affirmatively, but just in case:

1) Have you read the PPC Constitution?
2) Have you read the Original Series?
3) How did you run across the PPC?
4) What are your fandoms?

Re: Welcome! by Spotted Pheasant on 2013-08-27 03:11:00 UTC Reply

Haha, thanks! Nice to meet you!

As for your questions...

1. Made sure to read it thoroughly a few times.
2. Yep! And loved it.
3. I don't exactly remember how, but I'd stumbled across the missions of Agents Suicide and Diocletian, and from there began my years as a lurker of the PPC.
4. I have a good many fandoms, some of which include:

-Harry Potter
-Percy Jackson
-Warriors (first and second series.)
-Lord of the Rings
-Comics (I have a preference for DC.)
-Digimon
-Most video games (I'm not going to list them all, but if you name one there's a good chance I have played it. I like obscure games, and random things I find on Steam.)

OK, then! by son_of_heaven176 on 2013-08-27 16:00:00 UTC Reply

Quite a few fandoms there. Are Pokemon and Bakugan among them, by any chance?

s for the obligatory newbie gift, let's see what I have here
*rummages through bag of holding*
(What's that doing in here? Well, it works as a gift so...)
Here, have a Digiegg! I have no idea what Digimon it will hatch into, but you can have it!

Re: OK, then! by Spotted Pheasant on 2013-08-28 01:04:00 UTC Reply

Booyah! *cradles the egg to my chest* Thanks!

Yeah, Pokemon definitely, and I know a bit about Bakumon. I liked to collect the toys a few years back, I found them interesting.

How about you? What fandoms are you a part of?

*picks up mini-Dragonoid Bakumon* by son_of_heaven176 on 2013-08-28 01:23:00 UTC Reply

I am a part of quite a few fandoms. I won't spend my time listing them all here, but will instead link you to a few pages where I listed my fandoms.

There is one more fandom that I need to add, since I only recently got into it: the 39 Clues series.

Ah, new guy. by DemonFiren on 2013-08-27 01:29:00 UTC Reply

Not much to get to know here: I'm a would-be lurker forced out of hiding by my strong inclination to speak my mind on every and any subject that catches its attention.

For your welcome gift have a self-heating vial filled with blifir' - chifir' prepared with Bleepto-Dismal instead of water. Save it for the truly disgusting fics.

Instructions: Shake vial until it feels warm, twist cap, drink contents slowly.

Warning: More than two sips (the vial contains one) may induce heart problems and memory failure.
Consumption of any noticeable amount of chifir' - and by extension blifir' - can also lead to vomiting and constipation, the former of which you'll already be familiar with if ever you find yourself in a situation where you have to reach for the vial.

Re: Ah, new guy. by Spotted Pheasant on 2013-08-27 21:15:00 UTC Reply

Thanks! I'm sure I'll run into a fic that requires its use soon enough.

So, how are you?

Sufficiently well. by DemonFiren on 2013-08-28 01:12:00 UTC Reply

The fact aside that I've suffered through canon-rape induced berserk rage just recently (it involved my lust object and a troll, don't wanna talk about it.)

But right now it's Unreal time.

Greetings good person...Please take your choice of Series 4 de-atomizer or the greatest gun ever given to us from the mib universe the Noisy-Cricket. Also, the cake is a lie!

Re: Howdy! by Spotted Pheasant on 2013-08-27 00:39:00 UTC Reply

Thanks! I'll take the Noisy Cricket, and probably knock myself backwards a good few times using it.

Nice to meet you, by the way! How are ya?

A welcoming word. Glad to have you onBoard! Have a Carafe of Continuous Caffeine. It doesn't violate any known laws of physics... I promise....

Anyway, nice to meet you! What's up?

Ah. Hope that is going well for you. (nm) by Spotted Pheasant on 2013-08-28 00:40:00 UTC Reply

Good to have you a-Board! by doctorlit on 2013-08-26 16:20:00 UTC Reply

Greetings, new friend! It seems I've spotted a pheasant. >_>

Have a special stop watch! It lets you travel through time, but it only goes forward, and only one second at a time.

Re: Good to have you a-Board! by Spotted Pheasant on 2013-08-27 00:54:00 UTC Reply

Thanks for the gift and welcoming! I shall be the envy of all my friends with this stopwatch...

Nice to meet you, by the by! What's up?

Not much is up; just watching for some real birds. (nm) by doctorlit on 2013-08-27 06:27:00 UTC Reply

Welcome A-Board! by KittyEden on 2013-08-26 13:33:00 UTC Reply

Yes, I know its someone else's line. *snickers* Anyhoo, hello! I'm fairly new myself, but here's a set of urple-binded Harry Potter books!

Re: Welcome A-Board! by Spotted Pheasant on 2013-08-27 00:59:00 UTC Reply

Sweetness! I had been needing a new set, after loaning mine to my brother and never getting them back. Thanks!

Nice to meet'cha! What's up?

Re: Welcome A-Board by KittyEden on 2013-08-27 04:07:00 UTC Reply

Not much. Come on the PPC IRC soon, I'm there frequently.

Oh boy! I shall wield this cannon with pride, and the basket of yams shall go right next to my desk...

Fandoms... I have quite a few.

-Harry Potter
-Percy Jackson
-Warriors (first and second series.)
-Lord of the Rings
-Comics (I have a preference for DC.)
-Digimon
-Pokemon
-Elder Scrolls
-Spyro the Dragon
-Crash Bandicoot
-Most other video games (I'm not going to list them all, but if you name one there's a good chance I have played it. I like obscure games.)

How about you?

I'm glad you liked the cannon.
So, I like:
Percy Jackson
Star Trek
Supernatural
Sherlock
Warriors series
The Avengers
Doctor Who
and maybe Star Wars. Just to name a few.

Re: Ooh! by Spotted Pheasant on 2013-08-28 00:23:00 UTC Reply

Yeah, it's nifty, and I make a pretty mean yam pie, if I do say so myself. *offers you a slice*

That's cool, it seems like we have some of the same fandoms.

*waves* by Ailavyn Siniyash on 2013-08-26 01:18:00 UTC Reply

Wow, that's a long while. Greetings and welcome!

As for your gift, I give you a lined Infinite Notebook (urple covers and wilver binding included; be careful where you look) for your very own!

-Aila

*waves back* by Spotted Pheasant on 2013-08-26 02:43:00 UTC Reply

Thanks for the welcome and Notebook! I shall treasure it forever.

Heh, yeah. I used to be a very, very shy person. I hope to be able to join as an Agent soon, though, and write for the PPC. I hesitated joining when I first found out about the PPC, for fear that my writing wasn't good enough. I eventually figured that if my writing is less-than-stellar, someone will end up pointing me in the right direction, and I shouldn't let that hold me back.

So, anyhoo, how are you? What'cha up to?
