is for historical figures doing . . . uh . . . historical stuff. Like, Sara did that one mission that crossed over 300 with the Battle of the Alamo, which involved Davy Crockett. It's a trollfic, so it's not a great representative of Crockett's behavior anyway, but my point is, his presence at the Battle of the Alamo is definitely something we know happened, and can handle that aspect of his life in a mission without questioning whether we got him "wrong." And there's always a chance of encountering AU versions of real people in some canons anyway, so . . . This got long-winded, but basically, it would be nice to do some historical stuff, never mind still-living/recently deceased people.

—doctorlit, who dreams of the chance to interact with Best President Theodore Roosevelt, even if just in a mission.

The caricaturisation of real people is touchy, and can lead to a lot of fighting over how they would "really" feel and act. It is a touchy subject, one that I would stay far away from.

However, there is one exception for me. If you can somehow manage to get the person involved to help write the mission, then go for it. So, if you want to take down that Danny Sexbang and Ninja Brian slash fic you stumbled upon late at night, you better get Danny to approve it directly. Get an e-mail or something. And, seeing that getting any public figure to help kill a bad fanfic is not very likely, it would basically mean no RPF.

But can you imagine? Harry Styles systematically hunting down the Mary Sues that thirst for his band. That may be the best image I have had in my head for a while.

I mean, how do you put it eloquently? It's just flat-out creepy when you see these stories about One Direction having an orgy or what have you. Makes me wonder what goes on in the authors' heads. It's one thing to do it to people who (as far as we know) are fictional, quite another to do it to people who exist.
