Welcome to the PPC! We love newbies here, so please leave your sanity at the door and have a good time!
As a welcome gift, I give you "Variations: Aldous Huxley in Memoriam" by one Igor Stravinsky: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-oeoV5X1Ha0
Welcome to the Board! A fellow Sailor Moon fan, eh?
Then for your present, here's a Glite-colored replica of Sailor Moon's tiara!
Hi, sonofheaven176! I like your name- it sounds like something my husband would choose.
Anyway, thanks for the tiara! I'll wear it with pride... once I get over the seizure-inducing color problems. :D
Yay, shared fandoms! And it does seem like there's far too much to LOTR to ever know it all even reasonably well. I haven't even read all of the books, or made it very far into The Silmarillion.
Anyway- ooh, my first sword! Shiny! You know, with this, I almost feel like I could conquer entire civilizations, despite having no martial skills whatsoever! Weird, huh? ...I'll just... keep this carefully sheathed, at least until such time as I decide to realize my goals of world domination.
Granted, I'm rather new to the fandom, but hey! Newness doesn't mean we don't share a fandom. I see you believe Fluttershy is best pony - honestly, I'm torn between her and Twilight.
Anyhow, I just saw the episode "Swarm of the Century", and those little parasprites were cute. Have one as a welcome present - all the locust tendencies have been genetically engineered away.
Thanks, Hermione! You have a lot of great episodes ahead of you.
(I wonder what MLP misspellings become? Oh- according to the Wiki, it's mini-discords!)
Anyway, thanks for the parasprite! I think it'll be friends with my little sock-eater... now where did that thing go?
Have a duplicate of Jayne's hat from the last episode of Firefly. Mourn.
Hello, SingingTheThunder.
I have never stopped mourning.
Hello fellow-newbie,
I've been baking parkin, so have a chunk. Wrap it up well and it'll keep for a couple of weeks.
LOTR and Firefly? Shiny.
I'm working through ppc.wikia.com/wiki/TheCompleteListofPPC_Fiction in order. Just don't overdose.
What's your field, and is it likely to prove helpful in the PPC?
Stripes.
Hi, Stripey, and thanks for the chunk!
I'm still trying to figure out what my field is going to be. I might have to bounce around the different departments for a while before I settle on one. Oh- you meant my grad school field? I'm going for a Master's of Social Work, with an emphasis on Marriage and Family Counseling. From what I've seen so far, counseling is going to be VERY useful for PPC agents. :)
Counselling may prove so useful you never get to leave HQ!
Have some cookies. Like always, never eat those 'cuz they're rock-solid or something like that. Enjoy! =]
Thanks, Rina! I will be sure to not eat them.
Tehee~ just throw them at the people you don't like (or someone you do like). I tried that once... Fun.
Hi, DawnFire!
I am absolutely planning on writing missions! I just have to read a few dozen... or hundred... or thousand... before I'm confident that I know what I'm doing. But having this handy Sonic Suedriver should be helpful! It must have come from a truly bad fic.
We should team up sometime, once I've lurked a bit more and gotten the all-important Permission. We two Dawns will be unstoppable! Here's to Dawns (not Breaking)!
It's a deal! We'll be partners in my first mission. I hope you don't mind if I bring along a cyborg. (I have a bit of backstory fleshed out. His name is Asus, and he's partially made out of Gary Stu parts.)
Hmm, Twilight badfics... I've never read or watched it (nor do I plan to), but I think I've heard enough about the series that I could reasonably take it on. The only problem for me is going to be complaining about problems with the fiction, not the canon, but as long as it massacres the English language enough, I should be able to handle it.
Anyway, alons-y!
Sweet! I promise my cyborg will behave himself.
It really shouldn't be hard to find a truly awful Twilight fic. >:) We'll destroy it!
Glad to meet you! Good choice of fandoms, there - don't know very much about Sailor Moon, or My Little Pony, or Nu-Who for that matter (who's your favourite Doctor, out of curiosity?) but I just finished watching Firefly for the first time ever last night, so I can bounce up and down excitedly and squee about that. :P And LOTR has been my major fandom of choice for years.
Have a bag of pebbles and a Random Shiny Object, and welcome to the Board!
Hi there! My favorite Doctor is #10, which is probably a popular choice, but it's more because he seemed nicer than the others than anything else. Of course, all of the Doctors have a very special place in my heart.
Isn't Firefly amazing? I'm still struggling to get over the fact that they canceled it.
Thanks for the objects! See you around the board!
Welcome a-Board! You have very shiny fandoms. *floods you with glomphugs*
As a welcome gift, have one of my sock-eaters. Specially for you, a pony about the size of your palm that has firefly wings. Name is Dr Little and she eats your socks if you don't watch out. Most things of mine eat socks, so... hehe. ^^
Ooh, glomphugs AND a mini-sockeater! It's so cute, I couldn't be mad even if it ate ALL the socks.

Hello, Herr Wozzeck!
Ooh, music! I haven't listened to enough Stravinsky. Thank you!
Hello, Neshomeh! You sound like the dapperest of all butlers. I will be sure to check out the Other Prominent Agents menu the next time I'm at work... I mean... when I find some free time.
In the meantime, I believe I'll have a Bleep in the Afternoon. The selection here is quite impressive.
It was mostly accidental. I realized it sounded that way after I finished the main paragraph, then went back and added the crossed-out bit about flavor and tacked on the line at the end. ^_^;
But hey, enjoy your drink anyway! It's on the house, courtesy of the PPC Bleepka Bar.
~Neshomeh, who doesn't think she's ever been called dapper before. First time for everything!
Have a welcome gift from Teh Specs:
A page torn from the Necronomicron!
(Warning: hideously evil. Handle with caution.)
I will choose... Madam!
And thank you for the lovely page from the Necronomicon- I've never had one of these before! I'll be sure to use it well (unless its use necessitates a change of alignment or sacrifice of a living thing. Then I'll just guard it carefully).
Just, if you see a line that says "Ia! Ia! C'thulu ftaghn!", dont... don't read it out loud.
Welcome to the board! Have a 'Backdrop of Convenient Explosions' +1
*Puts on sunglasses and takes a jumping picture in front of the Backdrop of Convenient Explosions*
Thanks, Ivan! It's just the kind of entrance I wanted!
Hi, Doctorlit!
Wow, this will keep me busy for a while!
And thanks for the mini-TARDIS. It's great to know that I can now disrupt the space-time continuum (in small ways) while protecting the much more important plot continuum.
Welcome to the Board! Have some of my world-famous hydrophobic water to commemorate the event. Cleans Mass Effect drives without any fuss!
Ooh, kitty!!! Erm... ahem. I mean, hello, KittyNoodles!
Thank you for the suggestions- I will enjoy reading them!
Unfortunately, I haven't paid much attention to Wow or the Warriors, nor have I read anything by Tamora Pierce, but I'm not opposed to learning about any of these if an opportunity presents itself. :)
Oh, I know- let me try this again:
*Puts on sunglasses and releases confetti from the Odd Container while jumping in front of the Backdrop of Convenient Explosions, and then runs from the now flaming confetti*
They are very much fun. Except for mine, which are less fun and more Wham. But still fun. :D
Darn. BUT! I know lots about Warriors and World of Warcraft, and have read a measly third or so of stuff by Tamora Pierce, so if you have any questions, I will happily cram information down your throat answer them to the best of my ability! :D
ACCEPTABLE!
Ooh! It would be fun to do a mission where you were doing one of these things, and I got excited and wanted to tag along, and you asked if I was familiar with them, and I said yes, but I was lying, so I ended up being completely in over my head and you had to rescue me along with the fic.
I have a oneshot Warriors fic I'm getting ready to sick a new DTE agent on. It's a pretty easy test-run sort of fic for someone who doesn't have Perimission yet. Wanna give it a spin?
Hmm, let me think about that for a seYES!! So if I don't have Permission yet, I can still have an agent appear in someone else's mission? Sounds good to me!
Why don't you email me at NessLR@yahoo.com with details? Thanks! (Hehee, this is so exciting!)
Actually, something similar turned out to be my first mission. It was before I got Permission - I sent Gilbert and Fiona along on a BIONICLE mission, despite knowing as much about BIONICLE as I know about astrophysics (so, basically, the name of the fandom). It was fun and educational, and was also great agent- and mission-writing practice! If'n you'd like to do the same sometime, I have Permission now, and I'd be happy to have you tag along! :D
I have de lurked for a minute to say hi. Here is an industrial size bottle of Bleeprin: trust me, you'll need it :)
In the time-honored PPC tradition of giving newbies gifts of whatever odds and ends we have on hand, allow me to present you with a diving knife, an Me-262-model Striker Unit, an Indian flute made of PVC, a bullwhip, and a bag of peppermints.
Welcome to the Protectors of the Plot Continuum! May you serve honorably and well.
Hi, Riese
Thank you for all the stuff! I promise to try to find a use for all of it. See you around the board!
Wow! That was definitely at least the third or fourth coolest thing I've ever seen! Brohoof! /)(<br>[Takes Fluttershy statue]
I'm looking forward to seeing this Once x Ponies fanfic of yours. Actually, I have a fic or two on fimfiction.net, but it's been a while, so they're pretty buried by now.
I hope we can work together on a PPC story sometime. I have a great character mostly put together already, and I think we would work very well together!
Sounds good! I'd have to bump out my current husband if we were to get married, but we could just make friendship bracelets or something. Or work on something together. That would be great!
I like both of these ideas. Cadence and Shining Armor would make a perfect Snow and Charming. Chrysalis almost sounds more like Cora, what with her frequent shapeshifting. And, of course, no one else could be Discord!
Let me know if you want to work together on anything, I'm definitely down for it (once I get a few dozen more missions read and acquire the elusive Permission). ^.^
Pleased to meet you! I think we'll get along just fine! Nice fandoms as well. Enjoy these fruit snacks in outlandish nonexsistent flavors, and in a whole rainbow of Sue-colors! (May or may not be dangerous to your health. If you do eat them, a very large dose of Bleeprin may be needed.)
Hi, Lynne! Nice to meet you! And thanks for the awesome fruit snacks- do the snozzberries taste like snozzberries?
