... one of Aragorn's many names.

So... I'm reading all three volumes of Lord of the Rings in one go for the first time (I've read volumes individually, read fragments, saw the movies, browsed the Wiki and so on, but never read the entire story in one go), and the urge to get a Middle-earth themed tattoo is getting overwhelming. Obviously I'm going to think it over for a month or two before I run to the tattoo parlor, but LotR is one of the two franchises whose themes and world mean so much to me that I want to commemorate that meaning somehow. What I was thinking of was "Hope" in Sindarin, written in Tengwar - bit basic, maybe, but hope and courage in a dark world is one of the themes of this story that really stuck with me, especially with Current Events going on. Now, since my knowledge of Middle-earth languages and especially writing is a lot, lot less than I'd like, I'm asking you folks to help me out a little and tell me what that would look/sound like. A friend (and the Sindarin dictionary I usually use) tells me that 'estel' is the word I'm looking for, and as far as I remember my canon I'm inclined to agree, but can anyone show me what that would look like in Tengwar?

16. World Without Authors

Sergio Turbo opens his eyes to find himself at the controls of a futuristic jet fighter. There is a forest below him, coming up fast. He has no fuel.

Strictly speaking, what follows is too gentle to be called a 'crash'.

Sergio struggles out of the near-wreck and stumbles off into the woods. Injured, he manages to find a half-ruined cabin for shelter, but when he pushes inside he finds someone already there: Sakura and Madoka, the canon characters who were taken in by the PPC after SpecOps. Neither of them know what's going on.

The following day, Corolla finds them, in company with Sergio's old Strike Dove team. But the team is different - it includes people who should be dead - including Sergio's sort-of ex, Ami - and others who never existed in the first place. Sergio says they need to let the PPC know that the multiversal crisis has gotten worse, and Corolla's expression turns grave.

"Sergio… the PPC is gone. World One is gone. There's no multiverse left."

Corolla explains that as far as she can tell, this is now the only world: a hybrid of all the canon worlds that existed before it, with only pieces of each having made it through. She was lucky enough to come out close enough to Strike Dove to pick up their signals and meet up with them at an old air base they'd commandeered. She's been trying to bring the abandoned planes back on line, but she's already detected armies on the move.

Sergio's face turns pale. "Corolla… what about Nikki? What's happened to Nikki?"

We cut away to Nikki, who is a prisoner of the Belkan Federation. Her captors are taking advantage of the hybrid world they find themselves in: they have superior air power to anyone else they can detect, and intend to use it to conquer as much of the world as they can. Nikki was arrested as a spy almost as soon as she appeared, and her protestations of innocence were ignored. The Belkans did, however, note down that she had some pilot training, and have conscripted her into Spare Squadron - their penal unit.

Corolla manages to get all of four planes at the Strike Dove base online, but it's enough that the Belkans notice their presence. They send up two squadrons to deal with the "minor irritant" on Sand Island: the elite Grabacr squadron, and the prisoners of Spare. Sergio is forced to take his tiny "Skystreaker Squadron" up to defend his team.

As Sergio is about to take on the Belkan planes, Corolla radios to tell him that Nikki is one of them. Unwilling to risk shooting down Nikki, Strike Dove's commander orders Skystreaker Squadron to land.

Sergio refuses, and single-handedly brings down the entire Grabacr squadron. His plane is heavily damaged, but he keeps it in the air just long enough to force Spare squadron's commander to surrender his charges to Strike Dove.

Sergio manages to land and is reunited with Nikki. As they get up to date, Corolla comes in with news. Firstly, Sergio's plane is a write-off. Secondly, she's recovered the plane he entered the new world in and repaired it - and, by the way, it wasn't so much a plane as a transforming mecha in plane mode. Thirdly, and most importantly: she's been working on a way to restore the multiverse.

Corolla has managed to detect the same energy that surrounded the Key to Canon, buried in the heart of a massive Belkan airship. She's built a device that could use this energy to return the multiverse to its previous existence - "or something like it," she says. "I don't know precisely what we'll get, but it can't be worse than this." If Strike Dove can get hold of whatever's generating that energy, they can plug it in and make things right.

"Oh, and one more thing," she says with a bright smile. "It's coming this way right now."

Skystreaker Squadron, bolstered by the refugees from Spare, launch again to face an overwhelming Belkan attack. The three PPC agents fly hard for the Belkan mothership, but when an enemy pilot gets Sergio in his sights, Nikki takes the hit for him and is shot down. Sergio is distraught, and tries to turn back to rescue or avenge her - but Corolla talks him down. "We have to get in there! We have to stay on mission! Once we've fixed reality, we'll find her again!"

Sergio and Corolla fly the mecha directly into the heart of the vast mothership. They find that the whole ship is powered by a crystalline splinter of the Key to Canon. They wrench it out, and the airship begins to fall from the sky. Before it can hit, they push the splinter into Corolla's device, and there is a massive flash of blue light.

Post-credits: Acacia is walking along the collonaded front of a shopping mall. She pauses, reaches out and touches one of the pillars, and frowns slightly.

17. Gallifrey Imminent

We open on Morgan's speech to the High Council of Gallifrey: "The Multiverse is under our control." When she was elected Lady President, she told the Time Lords about the PPC and its technology, and now they have completed their conquest of it. "All of reality is protected under the watchful gaze of the Eye of Harmony; no-one will ever have to fear again."

Out in the Word Worlds, the situation at first seems as she's describing: the canons reshaped into benevolent paradises. We see the Aviator, living a blissful domestic life with the Detective and Ellie - right up until the moment the Reader stumbles in, bleeding from a staser wound. "The Fisherman's dead," she gasps. "Help me."

The Aviator and his family are pulled into Discontinuity Council: the Agent's resistance to Morgan's rule. The rest of the Continuity Council are there, including the Notary, who absolutely nobody trusts. They have a plan: they're going to reactivate one of the old Sue Factories and create an army. The Aviator's not overly keen on this, but as the Disentangler points out, they know how to deal with Suvians; they'll be able to clean things up.

The plan seems to be going well - up until the moment Morgan shows up. She has a splinter of the Key to Canon, and uses it to level the Factory to the ground around them. Everyone turns on the Notary for betraying them - but then the Librarian steps forward.

"I just want somewhere quiet to read," he says. "Lady President Morgan can offer that; you can't."

Most of the council are killed or captured. Only the Aviator, Agent, and Notary escape. The Agent and Aviator are in total despair - their partners, and the Aviator's daughter, are now prisoners - but the Notary, to their utter surprise, seems almost hopeful. "What?" she says when they challenge her. "There's no point me being a grump if you've both gotten there first."

The Notary has a plan: they need to get hold of the splinter of the Key to Canon and shove it into the Matrix on Gallifrey. That will give the splinter enough energy to rewrite reality: there's no way of knowing what will rise in its place, but as the Aviator says, "it can't be worse than what we've got." To do it, they need to assemble a team of the most chaotic, unpredictable, and just plain stubborn canon characters, to help them infiltrate the Citadel of the Time Lords.

They make it in, assisted by the likes of the Doctor (Doctor Who), Mal Reynolds (Firefly), Carmela Rodriguez (Young Wizards), and Granny Weatherwax (Discworld). They steal the splinter of the Key, and head down to the Matrix chamber... to find Morgan already there, and her Castellans lining the walls.

"Did you really think this was going to work?" she asks them. "Did you really think this was some kind of story, with you as the heroes, and me - the woman who has liberated the multiverse from fear and grief - somehow the villain?"

Morgan proceeds to verbally tear the team apart, alternately cajoling, deriding, and threatening each member (though she's unable to come up with anything to say to Granny Weatherwax). She reminds the Aviator of the wonderful life she had with her family, but as she does so it becomes clear that she doesn't know what their plan actually is - and doesn't know they have the splinter of the Key.

Morgan concludes by telling the Notary that she's the ultimate pragmatist: she should have known this was a doomed effort from the start. "Oh, I did," the Notary confirms. "I knew I was never getting out of this alive." And she pulls out a staser and starts shooting.

With Morgan and her Castellans in utter disarray over the Notary of all people effectively committing suicide, the Aviator and Agent sieze they chance. They charge for the podium, and Morgan has just enough time for an angry cry of realisation before they stab the splinter of the Key to Canon down into the Matrix and there is a massive flash of blue light.

Post-credits: Jay is writing hesitantly on a sheet of notepaper. Anyone able to read her crabbed handwriting might be able to make out familiar words: "It's happened again. Someone's mucking with the plot continuum."

She stops, stares at the page for a moment, then sighs and crumples it up.

18. Catastrophe Theory

We open on a battle: General Gaspard and his small force are being beaten back down a corridor in HQ by an army of Suvians. As they are driven past the smashed Fountain of Bleepka, Gaspard pulls out his communicator. "Jacques! Now!"

The corridor behind them explodes, trapping the fastest Suvians with the retreating PPCers. Gaspard turns on them, and his team cut them down, then flee as the rubble of the blockade starts to fall.

They make their way back to the remaining agents' base: the HQ Pool, which until the civil war was considered to be likely mythical. Jacques Bonnefoy meets Gaspard there, carrying the last remaining Flower: the Potted Fern Official.

The war is not going well: in fact the PPC has all but lost. What's left of DoSAT have come up with a plan: they've used the quasi-unreal environment of the Pool to build a time machine.

"We're going to go back and stop the war?" Gaspard asks, but Jacques shakes his head. "Time travel doesn't work like that: we can't change the past. But with the right trips - we can change the world."

DoSAT's theory is that when the Key to Canon was shattered, its essence permeated the fabric of HQ. By taking specifically-calibrated trips into the past, Gaspard and Jacques can create a temporal wake which should reform the Key and let them fix the world. The only problem is, for each trip they make, the pseudo-invisibility of the Pool will be weakened.

Nonetheless they go ahead with the plan. The pair take trips to significant events in their past, sometimes separately, sometimes together. Gaspard has to witness the fall of the Department of Intelligence; Jacques watches Jenni Robinson's failed attempt to re-weave reality. They both learn more about how the civil war came about, and the various betrayals that happened along the way.

Each time they return to the present, the news gets worse. Eventually, they come back to find the time machine almost unmanned: the Suvians have found them, and every agent is needed to hold them off.

Jacques and Gaspard look at each other, and then out at the Key to Canon forming in the time machine's energy matrix. "We've only got a splinter back," Jacques says. "We don't know what it will do - what reality it might create."

"It can't be worse than this one," Gaspard says. As the Suvians breach the Pool, the two agents reach into the energy field, grasp the splinter of the Key, and thrust it downwards into the centre of the temporal field.

There is a bright flash of blue light.

Post-credits: Acacia is standing in a kitchen, chopping vegetables. She begins to play with the knife, tossing it from hand to hand, then up and over, juggling it like, well, an expert assassin.

Realising what she's doing, she stops, stares at the blade - and then resumes chopping the veg.

19. House of Rhodes

Dafydd Illian is sitting in a house in New Caledonia, in a room which falls somewhere between library and trophy collection. He is fidgeting with a blue crystal, which we recognise as a splinter of the Key to Canon. Eventually, he leans back in his chair and peers out of the door. "Connie?" he calls. "What say we go and save the world?"

Constance wanders in, wearing an apron and covered in flour and dough. "Sounds good to me," she says. "What's the plan?"

"We'll work on that," Dafydd promises. "Come on, we'll start down in town."

As the couple wander through the PPC city, it becomes clear that things have changed. The different departments of the PPC have all gone their separate ways, spreading out across the multiverse: the paladins of the former Action departments, the rangers who used to be Intelligence, the great flying city haunted by the digital ghosts of DoSAT. The New Caledonia city acts as neutral territory - and in the centre is the monument to what was. The clock tower has been transformed into a memorial to the lost PPC HQ.

There is a rumour, though, that part of HQ still survives. Rumours call it the House of Rhodes, and say that when the Rhododendron sundered HQ to defeat the rogue departments, he survived along with the portal generators. "If they had power," Dafydd says, tossing the splinter of the Key to Canon from hand to hand, "we could bring it all back…"

Dafydd and Constance embark on a multiversal odyssey, trying to find a door back into what used to be HQ. Along the way, they encounter their own surviving children: Jasmine, a Demas Paladin (that is, Assassin); Tanfin, a Ranger living in Middle-earth; Belladonna, who has settled down to live her own life free of the PPC; and Oleander, a Pyron Paladin (that is, a Pyro). They discuss the death of their other daughter, Daphne, at the hands of the renegade Department of Author Correction; and they try to get their children to support their plan.

Belladonna doesn't care. Oleander is cautiously in favour. Tanfin is strongly opposed. And Jasmine leads the Demas school of Paladins in a concerted effort to stop them.

Ultimately, Dafydd and Constance find the door they need very close to home: the old entrance to HQ, a mile east of the New Caledonia city. They step through into the familiar, if battered, grey hallways.

The journey through the House of Rhodes is eerily silent: the Paladins don't follow them in, and nobody else treads the dusty corridors. Only when they reach the generator room at the heart of the House do they find any sign of life: a vast rhododendron forest, and living in its heart, Jenni Robinson.

Jenni explains that she was with the Rhododendron when he broke HQ. The energy feedback smashed his mind, turning him into nothing but an ordinary rhododendron bush; and she has been tending him ever since in the hopes that he will someday recover. "It's what I do," she says quietly. "I heal people."

Jenni initially doubts Dafydd's plan, which turns out to be little more than "stab the generators with the splinter until something happens", but ultimately she comes round. "After all," she says, reaching out to touch a branch of her forest, "whatever it does, it can't be worse than this."

The three agents take hold of the splinter, and together they stab it down into the largest portal generator. There is a bright flash of blue light.

Post-credits: Jay looks up as a blue light flashes outside the coffee shop window. It's a police car, racing past to some disturbance. She shrugs and goes back to her coffee.

20. Protectors of the Plot Continuum 4: Rambling Band

Up until now, the natural reading of the Phase 4 movies has been that they happened in sequence: that each use of the splinter of the Key created the timeline of the next movie. That idea is broken as PPC 4 opens with a flash of blue light, and all nine of the Key users appear in a blue bubble, floating in the void: Sergio and Corolla, the Aviator and Agent, Gaspard and Jacques, and Dafydd, Constance, and Jenni.

There is one other person present: Makes-Things, sitting against the far side of the bubble reading from a data slate. He looks up, unimpressed. "You took your time."

"Makes-Things!" gasps Gaspard. "But -- you died when the Legendary attacked!"

Makes-Things sighs in exasperation. "Why does everyone always assume I'm dead?!"

Makes-Things explains that when the Legendary arrived to steal the Key to Canon, he hid himself in a null-space bubble. When the Key was destroyed, it splintered all of reality: the bubble was the only thing unaffected. Makes-Things has been waiting patiently for someone to come and find him, and now four teams come along at once.

The Aviator points out that they all have pieces of the Key with them: surely now they can combine them to rebuild reality as it should be? No, says Makes-Things, the splinters can't do that, but they can take them to where they need to be.

"When the Key was broken," he says, "there were two people touching it: Jay Thorntree and Acacia Byrd. They are the Key now. You have to bring them together."

Makes-Things' final advice is that the splinters will be drawn to the power of the Key. By combining the ones they have, they can find the world where Jay and Acacia ended up. "Be careful," he warns, "I don't know what you'll find there." The team press the splinters together, there is a flash of blue light...

... and they wind up in a perfectly ordinary, World One neighbourhood.

What they discover is that this is a universe with no contact with the multiverse. There are people they know here, but they're just... people, living ordinary lives. The only people with unusual powers - or any memory of the PPC - are the team who have just entered.

They split into teams: two using splinters of the Key to track Jay and Acacia, two setting up a home base. Each team faces its own challenges: Sergio and Dafydd (hunting Acacia) discover that Nikki Cherryflower is working as a waitress at the restaurant Acacia now works in; Gaspard and the Agent (hunting Jay) find that Jay is far too involved in her writing to even consider going to meet someone she doesn't know; Constance, Jacques, and Jenni (planning how to "bring them together") have an arc around Jacques and Jenni being from different realities, and each having lost the other in their own timeline; and Corolla and the Aviator (tech support) have to deal with a) the laws of physics not working how they ought to, and b) the Aviator discovering that the Detective is living in this reality with Ellie as his daughter, and a brightly-coloured dog he calls Zeb.

Through a lot of effort, the team manage to get Jay and Acacia to the same place and introduce them. They shake hands, and… nothing happens.

"I was afraid of this," Jenni says. "What else do you think 'bring them together' could mean?"

The team switch to straight-up matchmaking. They fail miserably and hilariously - but along the way, Jay and Acacia are so baffled by their antics that they end up laughing together about the whole thing, and bonding over it. They come together, not physically or as lovers, but as friends.

When the team have just about given up, Jay puts down her coffee mug and touches her notepad. "So you can say no," she says to Acacia, "but I was wondering… do you want to see some of my stories?"

"Sure," says Acacia, "I'd like that." And for the last time, there is a burst of blue light…

... and Jay leans back from her console, indicating a flashing red light.

"It's happened again. Someone's mucking with the plot continuum."

Acacia sighs. "Exactly what is so wrong with the canon that everyone wants to break it? Which world?"

"Lord of the Rings," Jay says, wincing. "The massacre of Tolkien continues. We have... a Mary Sue."

Mid-credits: Jay leans on a railing in Rivendell, snapping photos of passing elves. In the foreground, Acacia is gathering up burrs and pushing them into a pair of ridiculously glittery shoes. "Can't shoot you yet," she whispers, "but no-one said I can't make life difficult."

Post-credits: DoSAT. A young-looking Makes-Things is repairing a CAD when there is a fizzling sound. He looks up in alarm as a sphere of blue-black forms in the air and rapidly contracts; by the time it collapses to a point, he is hiding under a workbench.

The blue-black point vanishes, and the older Makes-Things from the beginning of the movie drops to the floor. He dusts himself off, looks around, and then peers under the bench.

"Oh dear," he murmurs, "was I really that bad?" Then he straightens up and picks up a Remote Activator. "Don't mind me," he says to his cowering younger self, "just passing through." And he opens a portal and vanishes.

Bonus:

Although Sergio Turbo is no longer a member of the Board, he's been really enthusiastic about the PPCCUU. He's helped me get the plots of SpecOps, World Without Authors, and PPC 4 sorted out, and he's also created a comic of part of the setting!

PPC 4: Rambling Band - The Comic

I love the fact that this comic makes no sense whatsoever outside the very specific context of a 20-movie series that doesn't actually exist. It's beautiful. ^_^

And that's it for the PPCCUU, at least from my pen! There's plenty of room for a continuation - there's loads of stories in the PPC that would work as movies, and loads of agents who deserve the spotlight - but after 20 movies I think my tenure as creative director is over. ^_~ (I have no idea what happens to Prime Makes-Things; I'm sure he'll find something to do.)

You can find the full final listing of the movies, with references and disclaimers tacked on the end, here. I hope you've had fun; it's been a wild ride from my side.

hS

There must be countless Generic Worlds that are basically "World One but X weird thing is real."

... Random late-night thought: I wonder if Generic Worlds just kinda float around out there in meta-space, lying fallow, waiting to be seeded by a story. Hmm...

~Neshomeh had BESM confused with Maid, anyway.

P.S: Would it be okay if I change the continuum to "world 1.2" (yet another copy of real world but stuff like slapstick accidents happen)?

I think that, as a concept, it's something really cool! As someone who plan to create a universe mixing dozens of universes and characters that I like for future fanfics, I think that it can be a good way to expand the possibilities about anything and create some very awesome/funny/epic/cool encounters.

And if people are having fun with it, it's even better!

I have but two moderate concerns and one minor one:

1. These characters don't read as real-world humans to me, especially with Kaguya's tendency toward comedic misfortune. Switch their continuum of origin from World One to, e.g., the Big Eyes Small Mouth RPG system, though, and it's all perfectly fine. BESM even has the master-servant dynamic as a major feature of the game, IIRC. Note that this does not free said dynamic from being extremely cringey if not handled with due care and sensitivity.

   That said, I like the relationship between your characters as it appears here. The fact that Momoka chooses to work for the family out of a sense of obligation means she has agency in the decision, and it's not an unfamiliar trope to me. The fact that she shares interests with Kaguya as well as finding him attractive feels like a basis for a reasonably well-rounded relationship. (I wonder if he might have to learn not to take her for granted at some point, though, if she decides her obligation is fulfilled since she's not living with the family anymore, but supporting herself as an agent just like he is, and simply wants to be his friend... But I digress!)

2. I worried that the SO came across a bit harsh, insisting that the agents take a punishment for something outside either of their control (more or less). The actual "punishment" seems like a good, pragmatic decision with the added benefit of comedy potential, though, so that's fine. If it was a deliberate attempt to set up a juxtaposition between expectations and reality, it wasn't clear, but definitely keep working that energy. If it wasn't deliberate, still keep that energy, but keep working on getting familiar with how the SO and other Flowers have been written by others.

3. There are some SPaG issues scattered throughout the document, especially around punctuation with quotation marks. None of the mistakes are terrible, and this is a skill you (and your beta friend) will keep improving with practice, so I'm not too worried about it.

You are clearly very motivated and have put some effort into this, which is great. I still feel a little uncertain about how well you understand the PPC setting/mindset, but I don't want to discourage you—so, unless someone else has strong objections, I think I want to take a page out of hS's book here and say Permission Conditionally Granted. Go ahead and write your first mission, and let's see how that goes. I can't promise I'll be able to read it right away when the time comes, but I will try. {= )

~Neshomeh, borrowing company time for PG-ing.

(ETA: Noting the conditional status of this Permission in the subject line, because I felt some of you were cheering a bit too much to have actually read this post.)

First of all, sorry for any bigoted behaviour I may have done in the past, I won't do it again...

I also note that my first language is not English, so anything I may say may be phrased in the wrong way...

Also, there's a trend on Deviantart, the 'Shared Crossover Universes', started by a certain Wolfblade111 with his Guardian-Verse, and about thirty others have joined in with their own. They basically are gigantic crossovers where they mash things they like together, and sometimes crossover with one another.

Ten of them are currently doing a tournament called 'Multiversal Combat', which just takes from Dragon Ball Z's Tournament of Power and mashes up their crossover universes together in one big battle to see who's the strongest.

There's many of them, and I will mention a few of them:

Guardian-Verse (Wolfblade111), Vice-Verse (JackDev99), Crossverse (Simbiothero), Krimzonverse (Spiroucore/Prohyas) (recently moved accounts to focus exclusively on the Krimzonverse), Alter-Verse (Deathbattleultimatum), J Re-Verse (jmp01), and Comics!Verse (oceansongbird).

Thoughts on the SCU fic universes?

(Note that Wolfblade and Jack are very problematic people, and this sours the idea of it a little bit)

Now with totally reworked agent personalities and background, changed name for one agent and three all new writing samples. Much thanks to my friend [name redacted] – who kindly requested that no links to her social accounts are included – for betaing, and here's the first fic I'd like to spork (bad SPaG, giant Sue, insulting portrayal of canons, facepalm-inducingly stupid plot).

The Agent, as seen at the end of Agent II, is putting together a team. One by one, he talks to the Time Lords of HQ, and each time we hear a little more of his plan: he is trying to build a Continuity Council, which will keep an eye on the multiversal issues that Upstairs don't want to hear about. As he visits each Time Lord, we see a self-contained story from that Time Lord's past. The other Time Lords cameo in each other's stories to greater or lesser extent.

The first person the Agent visits is the Aviator. The flashback shows the Aviator's previous regeneration arriving on Gallifrey, and being looked after by the previous Agent and the Disentangler. They raise her almost like a child, and help her to gain entry to the Academy. In gratitude, the Aviator agrees to join the Council.

As the Agent goes to leave, he mentions that he's going to see the Detective next. The Aviator says that he definitely won't be interested, and the Agent asks how he knows. "I know him really, really well," the Aviator says. "He's not the joining kind."

Skipping the Detective, the Agent goes to find Morgan. Her flashback is of a recent incident where her TARDIS landed in a version of the PPC where everyone was a Time Lord, and all the Flowers were herbs; the whole story is a buildup to a big "Thyme Lords" pun. "I don't want to go through that again," she says. "I'm in."

The Agent goes to see the Reader next - the PPC's youngest Time Lord. We see her childhood, with the Aviator acting as his (at the time) babysitter, and end with the beginnings of the Time War just as he reached adulthood. She joins the Council for the Aviator's sake.

The Agent finds the Librarian next, and the flashback shows his struggles with the Riddle of the Osirians - a puzzle which consumed him and drove him from Gallifrey, across the galaxy, and into the PPC. It ends with the Aviator casually solving said riddle at a glance, leaving the Librarian utterly at loose ends. He joins up, effectively, for something to do.

The Agent tracks down the Fisherman in Medical. We see his attempts to clear a herd of multiversal creatures called Ypurs out of HQ, the rogue portal that dropped him into Aperture Science, and his struggles to escape both GLaDOS and the rampaging beasts. "After that," he says, "I could do with a job where I just have to sit down and bicker."

"I like to think we'll be more productive than that," the Agent says, but the Fisherman just quirks an eyebrow: "Have you met many Time Lords?"

Now the Agent goes back to his own RC, where the Disentangler is waiting for him. He has been putting off asking her to join the Council, and her flashback reveals why: it was a similar scheme, back during the Time War, which led to their flight from Gallifrey, and the Agent chosing to give up his memories to the Chameleon Arch after they reached the PPC. Back in the present, the Disentangler points out that she went along with it then, and that she's not going to let him do something this obviously crazy, pointless, and worthwhile without her.

The first meeting of the Continuity Council begins, with all seven Time Lords in attendence. They are just about to start discussing when the doors swing open and the Notary steps in.

"Did you forget about me, Agent?" she asks in an icy tone.

The Agent drops his head onto the table. "Believe me, if I could, I would."

We see the Notary's actions as a bureaucrat during the Time War, and her conflicts with all the other Time Lords at the time. We also finish up an uncommented-on background story: throughout the Gallifrey segments (which have happened in chronological order) there have been background events and throwaway sequences which establish that the Time Lords were working on a knockoff Key to Time as a weapon. In the Notary's story, we see that the prototype fake Key was a crystal tetrahedron, and that it was stolen by a white-robed Time Lord: the Mysterious Somebody.

None of this is commented on by the agents. Rather, as the Notary settles down at one end of the Council table, the Aviator looks over at the Agent. "I've been meaning to ask: this Key to Canon you've had so much trouble with. Is it any relation to the Key to Time the Fourth Doctor had to hunt down?"

The Time Lords look at each other, and then the Notary sniffs in disdain. "I don't know where this Key to Canon came from," she says, "but I'm certain it's nothing to do with the Time Lords. I assure you, I would have heard about that."

---

Post-credits scene is unchanged. I like this a lot more: it lets me reference actual stories rather than vaguely making stuff up. (The Reader, Morgan, Fish, and Librarian are all drawing on pre-existing stories, and I suspect there's material that could be adapted for Ave's as well.) Also, it means the Council literally never does anything. I love it.

As for Liu Siyuan: entirely your fault! ^_^ I think he's the character thrown furthest OOC by the PPCCUU, and it's all because you wanted him as Jacques' jealous ex. This is movies - you can't just be jealous, you have to be psychotically obsessed and willing to break the entire multiverse. Obvs.

hS

Ah, my baby being an unhinged ex... wipes tear from eye

Anyway, re: not sure how Continuity Council would play out: why not take a page from Love Actually and deliberately make it a movie full of short but sort-of interconnected stories? Each of the Time Lords on the ConCoun has a short story that leads them ultimately to joining the ConCoun, including the backstory flashbacks you've already listed for the Agent and the Aviator. Then you have the Key to Canon/Mysterious Somebody thread in between all of them, and then ultimately we end on something like either the Notary or Morgan's story where they start questioning whether or not the PPC is appropriating Time Lord tech.

Each short in the film following the journey of one of the members means you also have space for interactions with other folks at the PPC that haven't been mentioned yet, depending on the trajectory of each member, and folks who have stories set in the present moment (rather than Gallifrey flashbacks) can be handling multiversal incursions in their little segments.

11. Agent II

The Agent and the Disentangler are on a routine mission when they discover a strange mirror that isn't mentioned in the Words. The reflections in it don't quite match what's on their side. The Agent reaches out and touches it, and blue-black light surrounds the pair.

They recover consciousness to find themselves in DoSAT, but Makes-Things has a goatee. Other DoSAT agents are similarly off-looking - Corolla is dressed entirely in Evil Villain black leather, and riding around on a grumpy mini-Balrog.

"Be glad I let you off so lightly," Makes-Things sneers. "Next time, I'll send you down to Disturbing Acts of Violence. Now get out of here before I call the Cats."

The Agent and Disentangler hurry away, discussing in hushed tones that they're obviously in some kind of Star Trek mirror universe. "Actually," says Jaycacia Thornbyrd, stepping into view wearing a white sash with a silver cat pin, "it's more of a mirror multiverse. Welcome to the Enforcers of the Plot Continuum. Come with me if you want to live."

The agents are taken to the headquarters of the DIS, the mirror version of the DIA; most of its agents are DIA agents in mirror form. They get a crash-course in multiverse theory: there are many multiverses, each with its own version of the PPC. "Like that weird steampunk lot the Sunflower Emperor's so interested in," one of the Cats mutters, to general agreement.

Jaycacia explains that the Mysterious Somebody from the prime multiverse has been negotiating with the Sunflower Emperor. Makes-Things' device is one part of the plan - it was supposed to teleport the mirror Agent and Disentangler to the prime multiverse, but has instead dropped them into null-space and brought their counterparts across. The White Cats are the only department that doesn't want to invade the prime multiverse - Jaycacia joined them because she was so shocked to hear that her prime counterpart was dead.

The Agent and Disentangler, disguised as their mirror selves, have to destroy Makes-Things' prototypes. Their plan is to get the White Cats out when (or if) they escape, but the ending becomes too hectic for that. Jaycacia calls out to them as they're engulfed by blue-black light: "Don't worry! We'll do what we can from this end!"

They find themselves right back where they started. Abandoning the mission, they race back to HQ to report to the Board's lieutenants: Agents Jay and Acacia.

Post-credits: The Aviator is sitting at a bar. The Agent slips into the seat next to him. "There's trouble in the multiverse," he says. "The Flowers won't listen. I'm putting together a team."

The Aviator rolls his eyes. "Gaspard already did that quote once. Get some new material."

TV Series #5. Alternates

Alec Troven, his wife, Verra Rose, and his best friend, Lorac Seriph had lives as reasonably normal as anyone can in HQ . . . until one day Alec meets . . . Alec?

Turns out, the multiverse is filled with other Alecs, and they're all being affected by the others through a psychic bond. Things get even more complicated when Lorac's behavior makes an abrupt change, and he attempts to kill Verra. Can prime!Alec get the other universes neatly put away before Lorac can hurt anyone else? Jenni Robinson appears occasionally, showing surprising levels of expertise in this kind of thing.

12. SpecOps

Agents Sergio Turbo and Nikki Cherryflower, the PPC's Special Operations team, are assigned what seems like a perfectly ordinary mission to Card Captor Sakura. Before they set out, though, their friend Corolla (from DoSAT) sneaks onto the team, telling them that the Department of Intelligence detected what might be signs of the rumoured multiversal incursions.

The mission goes awry when canon character Sakura goes mysteriously missing. Before the agents can respond, the fic begins to change around them, and they find themselves in another location entirely. "Hang on," says Sergio, "this is a Witch's Barrier. That's not even the right canon!"

It should also be impossible, they discover when they meet canon character Homura, who explains that this is happening after Madoka ascended to godhood to prevent it. The only possibility is that Madoka, like Sakura, has been kidnapped.

The agents are faced with what seems to be a multiversal conspiracy: the kidnapping of magical girl characters amid a wild crossover. Their hunt for the girls culminates in a car chase - and an intervention by Strike Dove, a mercenary organisation from Sergio's past that as far as he's concerned, shouldn't exist any more (and certainly not in this crossover!).

Sergio comes to realise that his memories of the past are incomplete, or altered - or maybe from an alternate timeline which no longer exists. The merging of badfics continues to spiral, with the agents and Strike Dove fending off attacks from villainous minions drawn from multiple canons, all out to kidnap the girls they're protecting. Eventually, they are revealed to be working for Vera, a Suvian from Sergio's past who he had thought dead.

By the finale, Nikki has been captured, and Sergio realises that she is in fact the copy of Sakura he knew when he worked with Strike Dove in his past. Mounting a desperate rescue mission, he recovers Nikki and defeats Vera at last - but the damage to the colliding canons has been so severe that the rescued magical girls have to be taken to HQ for safety.

Post-credits: The Mysterious Somebody consults with one of her subordinates from the League. "The magical girls are a dead end," the subordinate said. "The PPC has them under guard now."

"They're all too pure and nice for our need anyway," the Mysterious Somebody says, then smiles and holds up a complicated piece of clockwork. "But don't worry - I've found something better."

13. Continuity Council

The Agent, as he said to the Aviator back in Agent II, is putting together a team: a Continuity Council of Time Lords, to keep an eye on the multiverse issues that Upstairs don't want to hear about. He's got the Disentangler and Aviator, Morgan (a grump with a gun), the Notary (a grump with a clipboard), the Librarian (a grump with an ego), and the Reader and Fisherman (not noticeably grumps). At the Aviator's insistence, another slot is being held open for the Detective, but he shows no sign of wanting to take it up.

The plot is mixed in with flashbacks to Gallifrey during the lead-up to the Time War, where the members of the Council knew each other to greater or lesser degree. Their relationships are explored during these sections, including what led the Agent to give himself to the Chameleon Arch, and how the Aviator turned from a scared human-turned-Time Lord to the veteran he is today. (Since the present Aviator is a different actor from the past one, this is trickier to convey than it would otherwise be.)

In the present, the meeting quickly turns to bickering. The Agent mentions that Makes-Things is working to develop the Key to Canon into multiversal shielding for HQ. Morgan says that it would have been better for the Agent to keep hold of it, so they could use it directly rather than relying on the techies; the Reader argues that they should have destroyed it, because it's way too powerful to have on the loose.

The Aviator raises his hand. "Sorry, question: what is the 'Key to Canon'? Because it sounds a lot like the Key to Time that the Fourth Doctor had to track down."

The Time Lords look at each other, and eventually the Notary voices the question: is the PPC using Time Lord technology? And if so, who gave it to them?

The bickering continues, spiralling out into several minor multiversal incursions, as the Council try to answer the question and figure out what to do about it. They never manage to resolve the issue, but the flashback sections allow the audience to reconstruct the story: the Key was a knockoff of the Key to Time created during the Time War. Various Council members had encounters with it (though most didn't realise), but eventually it was taken by a white-robed figure recognisable as the Mysterious Somebody.

Ultimately, the Council adjourns without achieving much of anything. Nobody is all that surprised.

Post-credits: The Mysterious Somebody stands in a steampunk-themed room, recognisable as the TCDA Citadel, with EPC agents at her back. She picks up a complicated-looking device, about which black energy swirls, and smiles.

14. FicPsych

"Okay. Let's do this one more time. I'm Jacques Bonnefoy, a rougishly handsome Time Agent from the 51st century turned PPC Agent, and this is a story all about how my life got twist-turned upside down--no, hang on, let me start over.

"Yup, that's me, dangling by my ankles over a giant cup of tea while an evil wizard tries to make out with me. You're probably wondering how I got into this situation…"

Jacques Bonnefoy has a problem, and the problem is named Jacques Bonnefoy. Not himself, but the identical-looking French-Scottish wizard who insists that he's the only Jacques Bonnefoy in the PPC. Then there's J'aq, the dragon-rider who's quite put out that there are two Jacqueses pretending to be him, and - as the movie goes on - all the others as well.

As the number of Jacqueses keeps rising, the original version turns to Jenni Robinson for help. He knows she's been helping Alec Troven with his similar issue, though at least the other Alecs haven't been appearing in HQ. It turns out that Jenni has an inverted version of the same thing going on: instead of the many Jacqueses, there is one Jenni who has had many lives.

As Jenni and Jacques drink tea and try to deal with the chaos caused by increasingly bizarre Bonnefoys manifesting in HQ, they start to develop feelings for each other. Jacques is absolutely fine with this, but Jenni fights it all the way. Jacques tries to get her to open up, but she flatly refuses ("Stop trying to counsel me, Bonnefoy; that's my job."), and eventually storms out on him.

… which is when Liu Siyuan shows up and takes Jacques captive. He's an ex of Jacques, and refuses to accept their rather acrimonious breakup. He reveals that he's been magically manipulating the multiversal collisions to try and find a Jacques he can love - but that he's realised he only wants the original, "and that woman is trying to steal you from me!"

The giant teacup is Siyuan's trap for Jenni, but Jacques deliberately trips it himself. Siyuan makes one last attempt to win him back - and that's when Jenni shows up with a team of the more stable alternate Bonnefoys. Rather than treat Liu Siyuan as a villain, she, Jacques, and the alternates enact what might be called combat counselling, ultimately talking him down and getting him to report to FicPsych for help.

In the aftermath, Jenni reveals why she had been so hesitant about a relationship: she lost her first great love, Supernumerary, to the original Legendary Badfic, a monster known as "Subjugation". It was the most dangerous badfic the PPC ever encountered, and multiple agent teams were lost bringing it down. Jenni still had hope that Nume would one day return - "but if there's one thing this has shown me, it's that we can't go back. Only forwards."

Post-credits: A generator room, deep in HQ. The device the Mysterious Somebody found at the end of SpecOps rolls into view. Black cracks in the fabric of reality creep out from it and touch the generators. The lights flicker. And then go out.

15. Protectors of the Plot Continuum 3: Blackout

We open in the blacked-out PPC HQ. The power is out, and with it any protection against the multiversal crisis. Other canons, other realities, other timelines and multiverses come pouring into HQ, and the agents are struggling to deal with it.

Our viewpoint characters through this half of the movie are Christianne and Eledhwen from OFUM. As they struggle through HQ, they gather up the PPCCUU's core characters - the Aviator and Zeb, the Agent and Disentangler, Sergio and Nikki, Jenni and Gaspard - and together they have to fight the monstrous meatloaf Slorp.

With Slorp destroyed, the various agents converge on DoSAT. They plan to try and restore the multiversal shields that Makes-Things was developing from the Key to Canon, but when they arrive in the department they find Makes-Things gone, and in his place the Mysterious Somebody.

"Wait," say the Aviator, "I know you - from Gallifrey."

Jenni gasps in horror. "No -- she's the Legendary!"

The Mysterious Somebody reveals that she is both: originally a Suvian from a minor Doctor Who badfic, she stole the Key to Canon and used it to flee into the multiverse. The Legendary Badfic "Subjugation" was her first attempt to build a reality that suited her needs, but the PPC caught wind of it and sent in their best teams. She was only just able to escape as the story collapsed - and she lost the Key as she did so.

She tried making her own Key, but could only manage a corrupted version, which opened the gates to the multiverses but didn't allow her to control them. Everything the PPC has gone through - the League, the various Suvians, the current crisis - has been her attempt to get the original Key to Canon back. And now, she reveals, pulling out the crystal pyramid, she has achieved that goal.

The agents are too late to stop her. The Mysterious Somebody activates the Key - and the whole of reality changes.

The agents find themselves scattered across a merged multiverse where there is only one form of relationship, and it is domination. Everyone who wasn't in DoSAT - canon or agent - when the Key was activated is utterly under the story's control - some of them as masters who will control and lightly torture anyone they get their hands on, but most as submissive slaves who not-so-secretly love it.

Each of the five unaffected pairs has to try and rescue someone from the story's clutches, but most of them only have partial success. Sergio and Nikki are driven from DoSAT before they can get black-leather Corolla away from her harem. The Aviator reluctantly stops dom!Constance from whipping sub!Dafydd too much, but they are all cornered by the Detective and an evil female copy of the Aviator. The Agent and Disentangler try to break Morgan out of her role as mistress of the Council but get nowhere. Christianne and Eledhwen rescue Jay and Acacia from the clutches of the Sunflower Official, but aren't able to escape from the Board's office before the Flower gets his tendrils on them.

The biggest emotional arc in this act falls to Jenni, with Gaspard supporting. She finds Jacques back with Liu Siyuan, and being incredibly abusive towards him. She does her best to break him out of it, but in the end it is Gaspard who succeeds, leading Jenni to doubt the depth of Jacques' feelings towards her.

Jenni and her team head for DoSAT, knowing that the only way to restore reality is to use the Key to Canon themselves. As they get closer, they each feel the story's influence growing stronger as they approach its epicentre. Once there, they are met with a shocking sight: the Mysterious Somebody, chained to a wall, bleeding and weeping. And standing over her, with a riding crop and a cruel smile: Agent Supernumerary.

Jenni realises that the agents who were lost in the collapsing "Subjugation" have been restored in this new and expanded version, and twisted to meet it's purposes. As she tries to process this, the rest of her team try to tackle Nume, but he and his slaves (not including the Mysterious Somebody, who stays chained in her corner) overpower them. As Nume prepares to gag them and lock them away, we suddenly hear the crack of a whip, and a voice: "Nume, Nume, Nume. You have been a naughty boy, haven't you?"

Jenni, now in black leather, has given herself over to the story. Because this world only accepts one form of relationship, she has allowed herself to become a dominant character - and by narrative logic, Nume falls into the submissive role. He meekly frees his captives, offering them up to Jenni.

She smiles cruelly, but then addresses Jacques in a low whisper: "Go. Run. Find help. I'll hold them here as long as I can--"

"No."

The Mysterious Somebody stands up, shaking off her chains like tissue paper. "This isn't your story," she says, "it's mine. And if you won't let me have the master I want - then I'll have to become mistress of everything."

She cracks a whip into existence, her torn white robes reforming into black. All the characters present are forced to their knees, and made to watch as she opens portals to have the other uncontrolled agents brought through. They are all driven down in front of her, totally defeated.

--and then Nume's eyes widen, and he turns his head away from the Mysterious Somebody. "Jenni?" he says. "What's happening?"

The story breaks down. The Mysterious Somebody was supposed to be its ultimate victim - the one whose eternal subjugation was the sole purpose of its existence. When she tried to take control, she broke the very foundation of the story.

As the agents break free, and Jenni struggles with her feelings for Nume and Jacques, the Mysterious Somebody pulls out the Key to Canon. "I fixed this once," she says, "I can fix it again - as many times as I need to!"

"No," says the Agent, stabbing her from behind. "You really can't."

The Mysterious Somebody dies. She's quite shocked by this - she wanted to be hurt, but not like this. And the Agent turns to Jay and Acacia. "You've been here longer than any of us," he says, holding it out. "If anyone should be the ones to restore the PPC, it's you."

Jay reaches for the Key, but Acacia gets there first. She takes it and looks at it with utter disgust. "This thing has caused all our problems," she says. "If we hadn't had this, the Flowers would have had to actually address the multiverse crisis, instead of thinking they could hide behind shields and tricks. It needs to be destroyed."

Jay's eyes widen, and she grabs her partner's arm. "Acy, no--!"

And Acacia hurls the Key to Canon to the floor. It smashes into splinters, and reality ruptures with it, shattering like a sheet of glass.

Mid-credits: The multiverse appears as a beautiful rose formed of blue light. It falls apart, the petals floating away, and the camera zooms in until we can see only one petal remaining.

Post-credits: Jay is sitting in a coffee-shop with a laptop in front of her. She blinks, shakes her head as if waking up from a bad dream, and reaches for her mug.

---

These plots needed more work than the previous 2 phases put together. The first two weren't too bad, but Continuity Council is probably the weakest of the entire PPCCUU: I have no idea how it would actually look!

FicPsych needed major tweaks at a late stage - the first expanded version had Liu Siyuan as a knowing minion of the Mysterious Somebody. After the changes, I think it's probably my favourite film of the lot. It's the giant cup of tea that does it. ^_^

Blackout... well, the first half is fine, but I still have doubts about the last act. The big-name Legendary Badfics - Subjugation, That Series, Agony in Pink, C_l_br__n itself - all have a strong torture/domination theme, so I've tried to turn that into a family-friendly plot. And it kind of works, but I worry about the connotations, and I regret chopping the Jenni/Nume plot back to almost nothing.

Phase 4 is still being written (I only have World Without Authors done so far), but I think it'll be less of a problem than Phase 3. We shall see.

6. Intelligence II

We open in a barely-recognisable canon location, with a blonde Suvian and a very pretty man strolling along arm in arm as various unrealistic badfic effects occur around them. The Suvian points at a crack in the wall through which white crystals are spilling, and says that "they" will definitely want to know about it.

The man kneels by the growing pile of crystals and touches it with one finger. He identifies it as Bleeprin, the PPC's wonder-drug that helps keep agents sane and canon characters oblivious. It's only found in certain super-unrealistic badfics.

The Suvian looks offended at the implication her story is unrealistic. She starts to object, but the man smiles, stands up, and shoots her through the heart.

"This is Agent Jacques Bonnefoy," he says into a communicator as the Suvian dies. "I've got the goods; I need a pickup."

Jacques returns to HQ, passing a DoSAT team on their way to mine the Bleeprin. He is greeted by Gaspard, who has a new mission for him: he needs to infiltrate the Sue Factory and steal the urpleprints of their plans. This is somewhat off the books, because while the Flowers know about the Factory, they refuse to believe Gaspard's claim that Rose Potter was connected, and that she let slip that there is a bigger plan at play.

Jacques accepts the mission. Taking a small team with him, he attempts to infiltrate the Factory. Hijinks and excitement occur, and tragically one of the team is shot down and presumed dead, but they do manage to complete the mission. Gaspard takes the urpleprints and promises to take them directly to the Flowers.

Post-credits: The Sunflower Official talks to a shadowy figure. So you think you can manage it? A Factory of our own that will actually manufacture Bleeprin?

The figure steps forward into the light, and Miss Cam smiles. "I think I can manage rather more than that."

7. OFUM

Lina Holling is a fanfic writer. She's quite a bad fanfic writer - bad enough, in fact, that she gets a visit from a certain Lord Elrond, asking her to fill out some forms.

By next morning, Lina has been dragged off into the multiverse and "voluntarily" enrolled at the Official Fanfiction University of Middle-earth. Pros: the staff includes the incredibly hott Legolas. Cons: the staff's protectors are tiny flying demons with burning whips and weird names.

Over the course of her year at OFUM, Lina slowly learns more about this strange university. She learns to avoid Gandalf's cooking, except for the parts she adopts. She takes interesting and painful classes with her friends, such as Dot and Lilith. She finds love in the arms of Gimli, the not so hott but exceptionally cuddly dwarf who hangs around with Legolas. She tries to help Gimli and Legolas divert fangirl attention from the elf by matchmaking - her biggest success is getting her fellow students Christianne and Eledhwen to fall for each other. She learns that OFUM is theoretically not an educational facility, but a source of terrible stories to be farmed for Bleeprin - but that Miss Cam has rebelled against this and is actually trying to teach her charges.

The less-reformed students get more and more restless as the year progresses, until at last they erupt into an outright riot. As the staff try to fight this, Christianne and Eledhwen reveal to Lina that they're actually undercover agents of the PPC - and that Eledhwen was once a Suvian named Eithriel (her appearance has changed enough since Pyro II that the audience wouldn't easily recognise her). They're in OFUM to track a Suvian infiltrator, who they thought for a while might be Lina, but now they've figured it out - it's her friend, Lilith Wydenbrooke!

While Christianne and Eledhwen go after Lilith, Lina has to rescue Legolas and Gimli from the students with the help of an army of mini-Balrogs. Then together they go and help out the PPC agents, who are finding Lilith impossible to kill. Lina manages to talk Lilith down because of their friendship, and gets the agents to agree to let her stay in OFUM as a prisoner.

In the end, Lina is given a job offer by the PPC, but chooses to accept the one from Miss Cam instead: to stay on at OFUM as a student liaison, and (not coincidentally) to stay with Gimli.

Post-credits: The Mysterious Somebody is in the Factory, rather annoyed that their infiltrator has been lost to "that renegade". They turn to a console and yank on a suitably dramatic lever, and on the screen a map lights up showing not just this Factory but others, too - many others. Windows appear showing the leaders of the various Factories as the Mysterious Somebody announces that the League has been activated.

TV Series #3. The Mary Sues That Weren't

"The Life and Times of Rhus Radicans" ends just before Agent is released, and "The Mary Sues That Weren't" steps into its place.

Sparklee is a town-like Factory, and one of the lesser members of the League. Over the course of the single season, we meet the Mary Sues That Weren't - failed Suvians who have been allowed to remain in the town while they're still useful.

The series keeps referencing a new project that Sparklee is working on, which will boost its standing in the League. Towards the end, non-lexical vocal music begins to be heard in the background - and the final episode ends with an unexpected song number. A special feature-length TV musical follows, airing right before PPC 2: Lockdown.

8. Agent

We meet Tawaki and the Disentangler, agents in the Department of Temporal Offences, shortly before they are called into a basement office by the Sunflower Official. He has a special mission for them - there is a device called the Key to Canon, which allows the wielder to rewrite the Word Worlds as they please. It was broken into four pieces by the PPC years ago and scattered, but with the rising threat of the Factory, they need it back.

Tawaki and the Disentangler take on four missions, finding the disguised fragments of the Key. The first one goes pretty smoothly, but in the second they realise someone is trying to interfere with them. Along the way, the Disentangler occasionally mentions her old partner, the Agent - she knew him from back home, but he's gone now.

In the third mission, they're about to recover the Key when someone swoops in and steals it from their grasp. Since each piece of the Key leads the way to the next, they have to fudge things with the two pieces they do have to try and catch the thief. They go through a final mission which is increasingly broken by Suvian influence, only to wind up captured at the very end by their enemy - Jaycacia Thornbyrd.

Jaycacia assembles the Key and uses it to create her own ideal reality: one where she is the PPC's Best Agent, living with her parents, the soppy Jay and evil Acacia. Her plan backfires, though, as Jay is so soppy that while Jaycacia is arguing with Acacia, Tawaki convinces her to free the agents.

After a certain level of hijinks, Tawaki manages to steal the Key to Canon back from Jaycacia. He uses it to restore reality to how it should be, but it had imprinted on Jaycacia, and lashes out at him. He falls to the ground, heavily wounded.

The Disentangler is in tears. "You made me promise," she says, "you made me promise never to give you this… but I can't let you die." And she pulls out a pocket-watch, glowing gold with temporal energy.

Tawaki opens the watch, and his chameleon-arch induced disguise falls away. As the Agent once more, he regenerates, and then forgives his weeping partner - "I was a bit silly back then, don't worry about it."

The agents suddenly realise that Jaycacia and the Key are nowhere to be seen, and begin to panic in earnest - but then Jay Thorntree walks over, wiping her hands clean. "Don't worry," she says, tossing the Key to the Agent, "we took care of her for you. I'm Jay Thorntree, by the way; you might have heard of me."

Post-credits: Gallifrey in the past. The Disentangler and Agent (in his Tawaki body) are sitting watching the sun set in a burnt orange sky. Suddenly, a battered red TARDIS plummets out of the sky and crashes in front of them. The doors swing open, and the Aviator, golden energy wreathed around her, falls from the wreck.

9. Aviator II

We open on the simplest mission imaginable: the protagonist in a cute children's show is moderately OOC. The Aviator and Zeb follow her around for a little while, then dose her with Bleeprin and head back to HQ. Zeb takes the report Upstairs, while the Aviator wanders off to Rudi's.

The Aviator has a lot of problems. Her partner is still spooked by her change in appearance and manner. Upstairs barely trust her - they're half-convinced she's a Suvian infiltrator like the one at OFUM (a marked contrast from their delighted welcome of Jay and Acacia, briefly glimpsed). The Department of Internal Affairs (who wear black sashes and no flashpatch) is watching her every move. She's got PTSD from the Time War, and from the Rose Potter mission she had to face right after it - watching someone else die to protect her, again, wasn't good for her. What she needs is a drink.

Actually, what she needs is a friend, and she finds one in the Detective. He's another Time Lord, but unlike the Agent and the Disentangler they never met on Gallifrey. He's a chance for her to start afresh, to spend some time being a Time Lord without the baggage of her early days.

As they spend time together between the Aviator's bland, unchallenging missions, the Detective helps her get over her anxiety and paranoia. She finally starts to relax, and feel that maybe nobody is actually out to get her.

She's wrong.

She doesn't even realise when it happens - it's just another silly, pointless mission, where the characters all get splashed with magic potions that make them pregnant. The Aviator and Zeb grouchily clear it all up and get rid of the magic pregnancies.

A few days later, the Aviator starts throwing up, so she visits the Medical department. "There's nothing to worry about," the doctor tells her. "It's just morning sickness."

The Aviator has to deal with a magically accelerated pregnancy. Zeb and the Detective are really worried about her: about the agonies she must be going through over whether to keep the unexpected child. To Zeb, she's still his young partner from before her transformation; to the Detective, she's the traumatised woman he helped to start healing.

When they finally talk to her, they discover that she's actually fine. Sure, it was a shock, but she's hundreds of years old, and wanted a child back on Gallifrey, before the Time War. Neither of her friends knew her during that time, so they didn't realise that she grew a lot between leaving and returning.

After a very short pregnancy, Elanorelisindrivar (Ellie) is born. The Aviator lets the Detective hold her. Everything is fine.

Post-credits: The agent who was shot down during Intelligence II stumbled through a portal into Medical, very sick. As medical staff rush to their side, they collapse to the floor.

TV Series #4. Children's Stories

With both "Sufficiently Advanced" and "The Mary Sues That Weren't" wrapping up, a new show launches.

The initial 3-episode miniseries introduces the Nursery, with its cast of carers and young children. We meet our main characters at about 5 years old. A couple are adopted during the miniseries. The Aviator also brings Ellie along.

The main series launches after PPC 2: Lockdown. It follows the kids as they advance from early childhood/adoption into the agent training of their mid-teens. It's all about learning to live with people of other cultures and biology, talking through problems, and the strong bonds of friendship that form between kids, and the love that develops between non-bio families... and maybe juuust a bit of rebellion against authority? It's totally slice-of-life, and nothing bad or dramatic happens.

Ellie continues to star, growing somewhat faster than her peers. The Aviator and Detective's romance is a side-plot. Dafydd and Constance's daughter Jasmine is also in the cast.

10. Protectors of the Plot Continuum 2: Lockdown

The macrovirus plague sweeps through HQ. We see all our starring characters again (with the notable exception of Dafydd and Constance), some trapped in their RCs, some out fighting the plague. The weird thing is, people who get thoroughly trapped keep vanishing - not killed, just... gone.

Eventually our last viewpoint characters - Selene and others - find themselves in a hopeless situation. The others literally vanish around Selene, whenever she looks away from them. A macrovirus comes towards her, and she closes her eyes-

-and a portal opens, and a hand drags her to safety. It's Dafydd. "I know I said I was gone, but I wasn't going to let you die, was I?"

Dafydd and Constance have been working with DoSAT to get everyone out to a spot high in the mountains of New Caledonia. There's an abandoned village there, and the agents are already working to build it into a new city. Some of them want to just stay there, but Gaspard is convinced the plague is the work of the Factory, and he's Putting Together A Team.

The Flowers utterly forbid them to go. Jay and Acacia are sent from the Board to talk them down, and appear to be sincere in their appeals to the agents to stay put. But as they walk away, Jay glances over her shoulder and gives a conspiratorial wink.

The core cast of the previous movies head into HQ. Constance has to stay behind because she is heavily pregnant - she tells the Aviator she's jealous of her quick pregnancy, and the Aviator rolls her eyes and says she wouldn't be if she'd experienced it. She works with Corolla of DoSAT (from the "Sufficiently Advanced" TV show) to act as home base and run interference. (Constance has a gold shoulder dragon; Corolla is six inches high. There will be tiny dragonriding.)

The core team go back into HQ, fighting the macroviruses with new tech until at last they have it all cleared. Then, juuuust as they finally get it under control: urple portals open, and the Suvian invasion begins.

The intervention turns into a hopeless running fight. The Aviator is killed, and regenerates in the Detective's arms into a blond male form - then kisses the surprised Detective on the mouth ("I never knew you felt that way." "I don't think I did, until now."). But even his post-regeneration energy isn't enough to recover the lost ground.

Corolla and Constance break secrecy and go to the Flowers, who inform them that there's nothing they can do. As they leave the Board's office, they are accosted by Jay and Acacia.

In HQ, the battle isn't going well. Most of the agents are injured. Dafydd starts asking if anyone has any really big explosives. Everyone is planning Last Stands.

Then the portals open, and Jay and Acacia lead the massed agents of the PPC in to the rescue.

The counter-offensive goes swiftly, and soon most of the Suvians are wiped out. A single column, led by the white-robed Mysterious Somebody, manages to push through the PPC portals into New Caledonia. As the Suvians push towards the Board's office, the core team rush to the rescue, and fight them off at the very door. The Mysterious Somebody's shrouding robe is torn aside, revealing that they are…

… a teenaged girl, apparently just another Suvian. Nobody really knows what to make of this, and she escapes in the confusion.

The invasion is defeated, the Flowers promise to take the threat of the League more seriously now, and Dafydd invites everyone back to their house for shawarma. "I'm told it's traditional."

Mid-credits: The core team sit around a table eating shawarma. Nobody speaks.

Post-credits: The Mysterious Somebody is back in her lair, fuming. "What is the point of killing people and giving them magical babies if they won't leave you alone?!" She pulls out her black crystal pyramid - which looks exactly like an evil Key to Canon - stares into it for a moment, then rears back and smashes it to the ground.

A nasty-looking black portal manifests in the air above it. The Mysterious Somebody narrows her eyes, then marches through and vanishes.

Lockdown marks the end of the relatively grounded half of the PPCCUU. Up until now, most of the films are based on PPC missions; after this point, the only two "mission" films go wildly off the rails in the first few minutes.

By this point, we've also introduced almost all of our major characters. The only protagonist-level movie characters yet to arrive are Sergio and Nikki; everyone else is supporting cast. Everyone's here, you know them, you love them - now it's time to start doing some seriously weird stuff to them.

(And for the entirety of Phase 3, the fanbase will be in a state of utter confusion over the Mysterious Somebody not being... y'know... the Mysterious Somebody. Accusations of ruining the canon will fly.)

hS

Hilariously, with the sheer number of people in the later films, I only had to change about four pronouns in the later descriptions. Even more hilariously, both Continuity Council and Blackout bring back Second Aviator's actress (as flashbacks and an evil alternate version); I guess she signed a long-term contract!

Even more hilariously, we're still Disneying it up: because of the way the films are plotted, most of the Ave/Dee relationship is in one of the TV shows (in which, since they're less expensive than Second Ave's actress, both men can appear semi-regularly). Gotta keep that gayness away from the lucrative movies!

(Phase 3 is quite problematic on that score, actually; luckily I think Phase 4 can make up for it.)

hS

"The ideal time to regenerate her would actually be PPC 2: Lockdown"

Then by all means, please do that! I like the idea you presented here. I mean, 'nearly-choked-on-my-sandwich-snorting liked it. :P

(And sorry for such a long time between responses, it's been a hectic time. I have been reading this, I promise!)

I'm working on getting everything into a Google Doc, and along the way I've wound up expanding all the plot descriptions into full summaries. I've also integrated the TV shows and redone the poster for PPC. Nothing but the best for you lot!

1. Pyro

We open on an idyllic rural landscape: forest in the foreground, towering mountains in the distance. We linger on this vision for several long seconds - and then a blue doorway swipes itself into existence, and two black-clad figures step out. They are Dafydd Illian and Selene Windflower.

Over the course of the movie, Dafydd and Selene introduce the audience to the PPC: they stalk a Suvian, Alumia the Woodsprite, and record charges against her. When they need to get closer to listen, they use the D.O.R.K.S. to give themselves temporary disguises. When Alumia joins the Fellowship as a Tenth Walker, they carry out a quick exorcism on Arwen, who has been possessed into a minor secondary Suvian. They are forced to use a portal to jump from the end of Moria to the outskirts of Lorien, where they watch Alumia merge herself with a tree to hide from Gollum.

By the end of the movie, both agents are distinctly on edge. Selene has even threatened to use her lightning to set Dafydd on fire. When they go to kill Alumia, they bicker so much that she has a chance to dive for cover - and then the earth shakes as she merges herself with the whole of Middle-earth. Colour begins to drain out of the movie as the Suvian's influence desaturates reality.

Dafydd and Selene stare at each other. "I don't think we can exorcise a whole planet by ourselves," says Selene.

Dafydd smiles and pulls out a communicator. "Fortunately, we're not by ourselves."

Dozens of portals open, and dozens of PPC agents pour through. They're dressed in many different ways, but each of them has brought a copy of some piece of the LotR canon. Very quickly, they're directed to different areas of Middle-earth for the exorcism.

Get out… get out… the power of Tolkien compels you!

With another earthquake, Alumia is cast back out of the ground at Dafydd's feet. He charges her, and then Selene's eyes glow red as she summons the lightning and burns the Suvian to a crisp. They watch as the colour flows back into the world, then open a portal and step back through, leaving Middle-earth empty once more.

Post-credits: A party, and our first glimpse of PPC HQ. Selene is out in the thick of things, apparently really enjoying herself. Many of the agents from the exorcism are there too. Dafydd is lurking against the wall, huddling with a drink and clearly not comfortable.

Someone else is lurking too, and she sidles over to introduce herself: Constance Sims.

TV Series 1. The Life and Times of Rhus Radicans

A series of missions by Agent Rhus Radicans, mostly with her partner Shada. The missions air in reverse chronological order, and constantly reference things that happened 'earlier' - ie, in later episodes.

Season 1 airs over the course of Phase 1. Season 2 begins after Protectors of the Plot Continuum is released, and ends right before Agent comes out. In its final episodes, it shows Radicans' handful of missions with Jay Thorntree - and in the finale, it shows the retirement of Acacia Byrd.

2. Aviator

We open in a hallway in PPC HQ. There is a thrumming noise, and then a rather battered red TARDIS materialises in a niche. The doors open, and Rina Dives steps out, followed by the Luxray Zeb. They've just completed a mission, and are quite happy to be back in HQ for some downtime.

They spend the first chunk of the movie in HQ - returning books to the Canon Library, handing in their reports to the yet-unseen Officials, grabbing a bite to eat in the Cafeteria before heading to Rudi's. The audience comes to understand that Rina is something of a maverick, while Zeb is thoroughly strait-laced. Eventually Rina gets a [beeep] on her communicator, and they return to their TARDIS for a mission.

The mission is a Bad Slash story, with a wildly OOC Harry Potter and Severus Snape, loosely based on "Little Miss Mary". Naturally there is nothing explicit in this family film, but it is definitely a slashfic, not a Sue. We re-establish the D.O.R.K.S., having Rina use it to become a wizard and use a wand - because, as she points out, this thing doesn't just disguise you, it actually turns you into what you set it to.

In the finale, Rina and Zeb exorcise Snape - only for Harry to absolutely flip out and hit them with a massive blast of fire. Rina shoves Zeb to safety and takes the full force of the blast herself. Zeb retaliates with enough lightning to knock the Wraith right out of Harry's body, then rushes to his partner. She is dying, and she says she's only glad she could save him from the same fate.

But Zeb doesn't let her go. Taking the D.O.R.K.S., he carefully programs it, then points it at Rina. She shimmers, but doesn't change, and as she falls still the audience think Zeb failed - until Rina practically explodes with massive flares of golden light.

The TARDIS doors open, and from inside comes the ominous peal of the cloister bell. Rina's regeneration glow begins to fade, and we catch our first glimpse of her new form - and then there is a bright flash of light, and both she and the TARDIS are gone, leaving Zeb alone as the badfic fades out.

Zeb returns to HQ. He delivers his report Upstairs in a listless fashion, then stumbles blindly down the corridors towards Rudi's. As he passes the Fountain of Bleepka, he hears the rising sound of a TARDIS materialising. Right in front of him, the freshly-repainted red TARDIS materialises. The doors open, and out stumbles Rina, in a black bomber jacket and aviator goggles.

"Hi, Zeb," she says, staggering. "Been a long time." And she passes out.

Post-credits: Somewhere else - a fractured space with pieces of several Word Worlds in it - a figure in a shrouding white robe holds a tetrahedron of black crystal. In it, they watch a replay of Harry's outburst and Rina's regeneration.

"That didn't go so well," they say, in a voice that's impossible to define as male or female. "I'll have to go back to more traditional methods."

In the credits, the unknown figure is listed as Mysterious Somebody.

3. Intelligence

Gaspard de Grasse sits in a waiting room, fidgeting uncomfortably. A door opens, and Jenni Robinson beckons him into her office.

Through a mix of Jenni's counselling session and flashbacks, the audience learns that Gaspard is a member of the Department of Intelligence. He has serious self-esteem issues, and often runs into issues at work because of them. The story of the DoI Starcraft Club is particularly poignant.

The reason for the counselling session is that Gaspard failed to file a report after his last mission. This is very OOC for him - and as Jenni discovers, the issue goes deeper. Gaspard barely even remembers the mission.

They work through it together. Via out-of-order flashbacks, the audience builds up the picture: a strange Factory filled with tall glass cylinders, some kind of enemies coming after him, important information that he has to get to HQ, and then a blue-black flash that throws him backwards through his exit portal.

The last piece of information Gaspard is able to recover is a single memory: of the liquid in one of the cylinders swirling, and a stunningly beautiful woman floating into view inside it. "She was a Suvian," he realises aloud. "I could practically smell the glitter." The agents realise that there is an enemy out there that the PPC knew nothing about - and that it clearly has plans for them.

Post-credits: The Mysterious Somebody walks through the Factory, stopping to examine the cylinder from Gaspard's memory. Turning, they address one of the pale figures who chased Gaspard around. "That was careless," they say. "You need to mount a tighter guard - and to step up production."

TV Series 2. Sufficiently Advanced

A semi-anthology show, with Makes-Things and assorted other technicians providing a framing device in each episode's prologue and episode. With the newly-discovered Factory threat, DoSAT are trying to upgrade the PPC's tech. Episodes are split between present upgrades and historical tech development, with different agent teams cameoing to test the upgrades in the field.

The show responds to developments in the movies, particularly in Pyro II and Agent. The finale crosses over with PPC 2: Lockdown, which introduces its core cast to the big screen.

4. Pyro II

Dafydd, Selene, and Constance are on a mission to the Discworld - Dafydd and Selene as the primary team, with Constance along for her canon knowledge. The mission, involving a Suvian named Al who inexplicably attaches herself to DEATH, goes fairly smoothly, but the agents have tension. Constance is flirting hard with Dafydd, who is responding almost as strongly. Selene is fuming, her own attempts at flirting being ignored.

The bickering continues as they take out Al - only to discover her popping up again in a second location. "This is like Alumia all over again!" Dafydd complains. "Oh, it's much worse," Selene says, glaring daggers at Constance.

By manipulating Death into helping, the agents manage to take out the infinitely-respawning Al and head back to HQ. At first, everything seems fine - but as they enter the Cafeteria, they realise that everyone seems very giggly - and there's talk of the "best PPC Agent ever" going about the place.

Fairly quickly, the ladies realise that the PPC has been infested by Suvians, who are turning the agents into their mindless slaves. They argue about what to do about it - and don't notice until it's too late the girl who comes up to Dafydd, slips a large ring onto his finger, and leads him away.

Constance and Selene have to work together to try and rescue Dafydd and drive out the Suvians. Along the way, they encounter Jaycacia Thornbyrd, the aforementioned Best Agent; she talks about her parents, but the audience don't meet them.

Eventually, Constance rescues Dafydd, while Selene teams up with a renegade Suvian named Eithriel to lure the rest into the Cafeteria and hit them with a lightning storm. Jaycacia escapes, Eithriel is recruited to the PPC, and Dafydd and Constance kiss while Selene grudgingly steps aside. The ring, unnoticed, is still on Dafydd's finger.

Post-credits: Jaycacia enters the Mysterious Somebody's fractured lair and reports that the PPC is weak, and the time is right. The Somebody points out that there are "some few agents" who pose a threat - but that they already have a solution to that in mind…

5. Protectors of the Plot Continuum

Dafydd and Constance are just settling down for a nice meal at Rudi's when Dafydd's communicator goes [BEEP!]. He is being summoned Upstairs - the Officials have a mission for him.

Constance tags along as he heads up. They reach a nondescript door and head inside - and the audience is treated to their first view of the Board of Flowers. Surprise - the PPC is really weird.

Dafydd has been summoned, along with the Aviator and Jenni, because Gaspard has gone missing while investigating a badfic. From the message he managed to send before contact was lost, the Flowers are afraid this is something that hasn't been seen for a long time: a Legendary Badfic.

Jenni gasps, but will say no more.

Dafydd and the Aviator are given the mission; Constance and Zeb refuse to let them go alone. Jenni is sent along because she knows Gaspard, and will be helpful in rescuing him. They step through the portal together - and find themselves in the world of Rose Potter, the Girl Who Lived.

As the agents carry out their duty and hunt for Gaspard, it becomes clear that Rose is aware of them: that she knows who the PPC are and what they're here for. She has control of Gaspard, making him a minor villain she repeatedly forces into humiliating duels. She doesn't act openly against them, but she sets as many obstacles in their path as she can - and then, when Ave snaps under the tension and tries to take her out early, she reveals her full power.

The mission becomes a game of high-stakes hide and seek around Hogwarts. The agents manage to rescue Gaspard, but they wind up trapped in the Great Hall while Rose breaks down the doors. "Now you will duel me, evildoers!" she declares.

The Aviator rolls her eyes. "Sure we will. Like anyone but another Suvian could beat her in a duel."

Dafydd gasps and looks down at his hand, which still bears the chunky ring from his last movie. He turns and kisses Constance, then steps out of cover and walks towards Rose.

"What are you doing?" the Aviator demands. "I literally just said you'd need a Suvian to-"

Dafydd holds up his hand, and the ring glitters. "Exactly. Now duck."

It isn't a duel. Rose showers Dafydd with spells, injuring him more and more, as he just lowers his head and walks doggedly towards her, the ring beginning to glow on his hand. Constance tries to go after him, but Jenni drags her back down. As Dafydd reaches her, Rose gasps, "You should be dead!"

"I'm an elf," Dafydd retorts, "and I don't mean one of your gremlins. Avada kevada, already." And he punches her in the face with the fiercely glowing ring.

There is a massive explosion. When it fades, both Dafydd and Rose are gone.

-- but the movie isn't quite over. Constance shakes off Jenni, staring out at the ruin with a distraught look. Then her face hardens, and she yanks out a Remote Activator and punches in a new set of coordinates.

The scene cuts to Dafydd, pale and ghostly, sitting in a grey hall that looks nothing like HQ - the Halls of Mandos, where elves go after they die. He hears something - a familiar voice, perhaps - stands, and starts to drift down the corridor.

A hand grabs his arm. "No," says Constance firmly. "You are coming with me."

Mandos, the judge of the Dead, fades out of the shadows behind them. "Only once have I answered any plea to release a woman's beloved," he says, "and you, mortal child, are no Luthien."

Constance grins and pulls out her knife. "No," she agrees. "I don't sing."

The Board of Flowers is debriefing the remainder of the mission team when a portal opens and Dafydd and Constance fall through as if they'd been pushed. As soon as they've brushed themselves off, Dafydd announces that they're retiring - and that the Flowers shouldn't even think about asking them to come back.

Mid-credits: Jaycacia and the Mysterious Somebody are watching the end of the mission in the Somebody's dark crystal. Jaycacia is worried that their plan has failed - but the Mysterious Somebody says they're entirely happy with how it went.

Post-credits: Ancient Rome. A woman with brown hair is sitting at a table on the street, carefully slicing a loaf of bread with a wicked-looking knife. Another woman, taller with red hair, sits down across from her and nods. "Acacia."

"Jay."

Jay Thorntree smiles at Acacia Byrd. "Things are getting a bit out of hand back home. I think we need to step in."

Acacia scowls down at her knife. "We can't leave them alone for five minutes, can we? Typical."

I'm working on giving the other three phases the same treatment, but figured I'd give you something now to keep you interested. :)

sorry i was like gettin famous elsewhere on the interwebz!!111 and i did reed moar jaques content but it wasn't SMEXYY ENOUF DUHHHHH i mean whotf is grace??!!! and itchy underwear? lol not sexcee at all!!! at least i hav da ballz to write smutt and all you can say is "he touched her in all da rite placez" lol coward!!

neway it's fan FICTION and i do wht i want? canon is dead and i am the god of this fic and if i want it to be smorgasbord of kinks that appeal 2 me specifically i can!!! u don't get to 1039243823494 kudos on ao3 writing silly vanilla fluffballs liek what u do!!!

((I am sorry. I am so sorry ahahahaha))

...than you trying to get rid of Sauron?" Rebecca asked.

"Or do we need to stick around to foil your plans?"

((Really should have been someone else's tag, but it's been a while.))

—doctorlit

Lots of people do just that.

And, if you do put in the effort to get to know us and learn how we do things around here, there's no reason you shouldn't make another Permission attempt in the future. Learning and growing from your mistakes is important to becoming a better writer—and person—anywhere. {= )

~Neshomeh

(I'm always thinking, it don't stop.)

Aviator 2 would work well to introduce the Detective and Ellie, at the same time. Then for the Children's Stories TV series, D takes Ellie along to nursery and acts as a minor character (since Ave's actress is clearly too expensive to make more than one appearance). It let me do something fun in PPC 4: Rambling Band, too.

Question is, is Ave female or male? The ideal time to regenerate her would actually be PPC 2: Lockdown, so the film after Ellie first shows up. It lets the whole thing with D be a bait and switch - "You thought this was another straight romance, but SURPRISE, it's slash!"

But there's no particular reason to either do or not do that, so it's really a question for you: would you rather the Ave of Continuity Council, Gallifrey Imminent, and Rambling Band be female or male?

hS

I've been sitting on this content for WEEKS because I'm just in SHOCK that u think u can write something this OOC and just plain WRONG and GET AWAY WITH IT. In your VERY FIRST CHAPTER there's oocness!!! From the start? Like, how do you get them so far off I don't

So yeah, I'm just kind of BOGGLED at the fact that u think u can just wander back into this fandom after like six YEARS or whatever and not even, like, LOOK AT NEW JACQUES CONTENT BC if u did ud know how SUPER REALLY WRONG U ARE like srsly, did you just read the mission with lsy and go YAY TIME FOR SLASH!!????:!!?????!!!!! and that's it?? Liek, no, girl, u have to get CAUGHT UP if u want to write Jacques properly he'd never do half this stuff you managed to get him eating PANCAKES wrong!!!!!!! Like, get caught up before u start posting new stuff??? Ur going to spread miscarriages mission Morrison mischaracterization like???

And you didn't even get LSY right I don't even understand, like how can u get him so wrong? There's barely even anything written for him yet!!! Sit down, lil Lilith, u don't know what the heck ur doing with these characters AND IT SHOWS. Like, u couldn't even start small with a cameo or something?? I mean, they'd probably be ooc there to, but like. Wooooow, girl.

~~~**DW~~~~~*

-- ((Sorry it took me so long to get this going! :P But here we go at last. 1, 2, 3 fangirl fight, go! Probably still a bit slowly, but the thread seems to be slightly active, so why not? ~Z

Also feat.: real words autocorrect tried to give me when I swiped 'misclassification'--nope, sorry, that's another one. It doesn't like mischaracterization, I guess, though it doesn't underline it in red or anything, at least...))
