Since it appears to have rained in some areas today, here's a magical umbrella to shield you from rain, or snow, or bullets, or projectiles of any sort, really.

Here, have a miniature Carnufex carolinensis. You deserve it, my friend. :D

Incredible!
Unbelievable!
Incomprehensible!

Grown-ass woman scans detect an 89% increase in grown-ass womanry in the local area!
Congratulations!

My gift upon you is: one of those goofy-looking umbrella hat thingos. In case it rains, or you feel like you just look a little too fashionable and want to tone it down a few hundred levels.

Happy grown-ass woman day!

Happy birthday, buddy-girl! Huh, looks like you're a year younger than me, huh? Well... For two months at least we're the same age :D

Thanks! I'm sure I'll think of something to do with these...probably not involving pizza, though. Not gonna step anywhere near that minefield. ;)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
J: Have a deck of [Generic TCG] Cards!
W: And this totally-not-suspicious-at-all spoon!

I don't see how you could think that Levy was still in a Coma. She did, in fact, cameo at the end of my first mission. Levy finished her physical therapy and Ajax is coming over to help her move, with Matthew having been Shanghaied in to assist

The chains were under Levy's control, they dispersed when she was knocked out. And if it was Ajax using his Hypnos Letter, it would've worn off in the fight with Argus.

The Draconian humanoid is Nickul, he was part of the last PPC Hunger Games and is to be Levy's partner. Nickul, being a rather intelligent D&D!Dragonborn realized that agents usually don't solo missions, and went in to check if there were anybody on the other side. As for why he was there... Optometrist appointment.

There was a single portal. Nickul went through the one in the Motel room and ran to join the fight. It's not like he materialized out of nowhere.

As for the consistency issues with the what's given? Yeah I decided to rework some of that. The first version of this interlude was much more in line with what was in the Bios, but it was a bit too squicky for my taste

Hope that cleared things up for you! -Mattman

But I'm afraid I still don't get it. Apparently we start with a nightmare about Ajax and Levy's last mission, and a hundred eyes standing refers to the Argus replacement, but I wouldn't even get this if I hadn't read Ajax's biography on the Wiki.

Ajax receives a message. Since he already joined Mathew, the message can't say that Levy woke up from her coma, and it can't be a message from Levy saying that she'll move to Floaters (or this interlude doesn't match the bio); I wonder what it actually says.

I guess that Ajax's memories while he goes to visit his friend in Medical appear incoherent to show a specific state of mind. So we get a continuation of the nightmare, where Levy escapes to medical, but then we get a flashback to events before the events of the nightmare?
An arrow grazed the girl’s cheek, followed by another feminine form flying over the Eyes. The boy then slammed into the Eyes, dropping a smartphone-like device in front of the girl.
Capitalizing the Eyes may work, because they are a stand-in for Argus, but why didn't you do this from the beginning? Just to confuse me?
Who is another feminine form? The Sue? Judging from the flashback below, wasn't the Sue chained to the bed when they charged her before the Argus replacement hurt Levy? So who shot the arrow? The Argus replacement?

The screamed occurred along side the sound of glass shattering. Wings appeared on the girl's back, and once blonde hair returned to blue. The eyes, not missing a beat, grabbed the wings.
Should be "scream", and we are back to non-capitalized eyes.

Then we are back from the flashback and in Medical, where Doctor Appleby may just have introduced himself and now shouts for a Defibrillator, and a draconian humanoid rushed through the still open portal into Medical? Or to the place in the badfic, where Ajax still is? I'm not quite sure about this.

And we're definitely back to the badfic, where Ajax has just killed the Argus replacement (while Levy escaped to Medical?) and now wants to kill the Sue, too. But his leg is hurt, and the Sue is advancing onto him (wait, wasn't she chained to the bed?), and there's the draconian humanoid again.
"Get to the portal," the spectacled Dragonborn said. "She’s okay, just get going."
I'm lost. Did the Dragonborn go from Medical to the badfic to tell Ajax that Levy is okay? Who is he? DIA – Special Response?

Ajax dispersed his scythe, and hightailed it back to the motel room they found the Sue in.
You may have meant to say "they had found" (past perfect) or I may be getting this totally wrong. Anyway, I'm lost. Are there two portals, one the Dragonborn just came through and another in the motel room (where the Sue should have been chained to the bed, or is this bed elsewhere?), and why must Ajax go to the motel? Can't he use the portal that's apparently right there?

In the final memory, Ajax arrives at Medical, and obviously Levy isn't okay, and apparently Ajax didn't kill the Sue, so his bio is a lie?

But I don't actually need to know what exactly happened on that mission to relate to the characters and feel their pain.

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
MAY ALL YOUR WISHES COME TRUE
HOPE NOBODY MAKES YOU BLUE
AND YOUR CAKE DOESN'T EXPLODE IN GOO!

*blows noisemakers*

I'm now 22, which is one step closer to qualifying as a grown-ass woman. All I ask is that it not rain today.

... the best way to see it happen is to take part yourself. Selene has a Dreamwidth journal now, and she or someone else in RC 7219 will respond to anything she sees. So cobble together a journal for Doc and Vania, and send them in to say hi! She won't bite... probably...!

hS

Of all the things I can think to give you, nothing is more useful than... this. You know, since you're old and grumpy and can't wait in line now. :P Kidding, of course. Happy birthday again!

Bad Earth, going around the sun!
Bad! Bad Earth, bad!

Here, mate. Here's your gift: a pickaxe.
So we can both punish the Earth as it deserves.
Bad! Bad Earth!
Bad!

Happy you're now an old man day!

And for going with the black-hole food/coffee you can take, I gift you with a self-updating guidebook of all the deathtraps in he multiverse.

Hope you'll get to write a mission someday...

J: As said in the chat.... HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
I gift you a rather interesting stopwatch, recently repaired.

W: Happy Birthday! I would give you this nice wineglass, but it causes digestive issues.
Have a nice Hatsune Miku Doll instead!

Happy birthday, and many happy returns!

I don't remember it, all of the people I've asked (six different people, all of them oldbies) don't remember it, and there's no trace of Rin/Riese being elected PG in the archives — I've asked Tomash to do a database query, but nothing came up.
Rin, can you please explain this?

Were you under another name/was it before we moved to elections? If not, do you remember anyone else who was made PG at the same time?

hS, just can't help myself

You already got the birthday song in Discord, so I'll just pass you this plate of SPaGhetti and call it a day.

Happy birthday!
