thank you for the delight, and for holding the Turkish might. may the strands of Pern weave such a pattern, the scent is familiar but out of sync with my pace. perhaps I ran so fast since 1970 i thought to lost this place. I study the field as the Thinking Man, ever cautious all should be. and yet never to not show mirth. To drink and make merry and see, to raise such a glass, to all those lost. and those that shall become. for such we seem to be a bit shy of Rum. I suppose it's but a moment before the flowers come and yoink me away, as brer fox and bear might have done.

Chapter Three: Creating Our Perfect Happiness Together“Welcome to the Bonneverse,” announced the automated voice over the loudspeakers as the ship began to descend into the hangar of what was formerly the Protectors of the Plot Continuum Headquarters but was now the Headquarters of Jieyuan Co. Ltd. “Today’s forecast calls for cloudy skies with a chance of space-time bubbles. All Siyuan-kin are to present themselves to Personnel to be tagged and fitted with their Red Collar of Fate. All hail the Master, the Deathless Lover, First in Our Hearts!”
“Ooh, whatchu readin?” asked a new voice from over Liu Siyuan’s shoulder.The cultivator jerked away on instinct, before turning around to fix the full brunt of his glare on the intruder. “Lux-qianbei,” he said, stiffly, clutching the tablet to his chest.
“You’re really not going to let me see what you’re reading?” wondered Lux with a pout, slinking onto the couch beside him. Liu Siyuan inched back a little. “Come on, Lulu, I wanna see!”
“Lulu?” echoed Liu Siyuan incredulously. “Is that not a dog’s name?”
“What? I thought you said you were a lonely dog.” Lux nudged him, grinning. She then snatched the tablet away before he had a chance to protest, scrolling down the page. “Ooh! ‘Over to the left is Response Centre 5242, once the RC of our Master the Deathless Lover. It is now a shrine we make our yearly pilgrimages to, to pray for fertility and mind-blowing sex’. Siyuan! I had no idea you read this sort of stuff! I could’ve given you so many recommendations!”
“No, thank you!” exclaimed Liu Siyuan a little too hastily. He took the tablet back and clutched it to his chest. “I merely lost a bet to Bo-qianbei. He said if the story updated, I would have to read the entire thing or else,” his expression wrinkled, “be forced to wear a t-shirt to the next mahjong game that says ‘bawk bawk bitch’ on it.”
Lux laughed at that. “Lulu in a t-shirt is a tempting situation,” she remarked thoughtfully, “but Lulu trying to read badfic about himself is priceless!” She settled down fully onto the couch. “Come on, do your worst.”
Liu Siyuan looked down at the lack of proximity between them, and then at all the space extending to the other armrest of the couch. “Are you not a little too close?”
“Nope!” trilled Lux, now half-squished into his lap as she took the tablet from him and scrolled on.
All Siyuan-kin when they are born are naturally predisposed to look for a Jacques-kin, their soulmate. The majority of Siyuan-kin are grown in vats located in the former Department of Dead Author Electricity Generation (the goo they’re grown in has a double effect of powering Headquarters more efficiently than the constant spinning of JRR Tolkien) and upon decanting, they would immediately be fitted with their Red Collar of Fate which had a red leash that connected them to their destined Jacques-kin.Other Siyuan-kin were captured feral from other parts of the Bonneverse. These were usually the varietal sorts of Siyuan-kin, who exhibit different traits based on the different space-time bubble settings they were in. Those captured Siyuan-kin were fitted with their Red Collars of Fate upon processing at Jieyuan Co. Ltd. Headquarters.
Life is very nice for the majority of Siyuan-kin, who are treated like pampered pets and given everything they desire by their Jacques-kin masters. Most of the time, all they desire is to be stuffed full of their Jacques-kin’s Love Power until they’re bursting with more Siyuan-and-Jacques-kins —
Lux scoffed. “This Lilith Wydenbrooke is a hack and a plagiarist,” she sniffed. “This worldbuilding was taken directly from the seminal masterpiece ‘Taming Agent Supernumerary’!”Liu Siyuan stared oddly at her. “Do I even want to know how you can recall that off of the top of your head?” he wondered.
“I told you! I’m a fount of reading recommendations!” Lux grinned from ear to ear. “Basically in that fic, Numey has a collar that glows when he meets his soulmate, Ilraen, and then Ilraen spends the next eighty chapters teaching him how to love through tender, kinky —”
“I would like to not think about Yile-qianbei in such a context, thank you,” interjected Liu Siyuan. Lux pouted at him, but subsided quickly and continued to read.
In another space-time bubble in the Bonneverse, another Jacques Bonnefoy lived a very simple, happy life in his little cottage on the outskirts of town. He had a job at the local Jieyuan Co. Ltd. factory, assessing newly-decanted Siyuan-kin for their abilities to please and breed with their new masters.Good morning, Mr Bonnefoy! said a passing Sunflower as Jacques was standing out in the morning sun with a mug of coffee and this week’s edition of the Bonneverse Monitor. The cover story was something about an explosion at a Jieyuan Co. Ltd. factory on the planet Shan Shen, potentially rigged by members of a resistance organisation of Siyuan-kin that the Non-Propaganda Communications Division had dubbed ‘Siyuantifa’. Jacques shook his head at the idea that Siyuan-kin would even wish to flee from their pampered lives.
“Good morning, Mr Sunflower!” he replied cheerfully. “You seem to be in a good mood!”
The Master has seen fit to replace my malfunctioning A-Wang unit, said the Sunflower, preening its fronds. The one I have currently is too mouthy, and not even in a fun way.
Liu Siyuan grimaced. “Is that… the Sunflower that runs the Department of Mary Sues?”Lux shrugged, examining her nails. “Yeah, a lot of people like to pair up the SO with people,” she explained. “I mean, I guess there’s just something about those fronds, you know.”
“I do not know, and would like to continue not knowing,” deadpanned Liu Siyuan.
“Well, personally, I think the SO/human thing is a bit overdone and trite,” said Lux, tapping at the tablet thoughtfully. “I mean, we get it, everyone just wants to copy Jaycacia Thornbyrd! There’s no heart in it! And certainly not enough love for any of the other Flowers…”
Leave it to Lux to see fanfiction involving the Flowers and decide the one major flaw was that everyone went for the Sunflower Official. Liu Siyuan shook his head, not exactly sure what else he expected, before reaching over to scroll down a bit more:
After bidding the Sunflower goodbye, Jacques finished his coffee and the Bonneverse Monitor during his commute to the Jieyuan Co. Ltd. factory. Here as a citizen of the Bonneverse, he wanted for nothing. Money would only procure him premium upgrades for his Siyuan-kin soulmate, whenever he found his; all of his basic needs were tended to by a bevy of robots (invented by Makes-Things, obviously, who was secretly a Siyuan-kin because he was just that awesome) and plotholes.At the factory, Jacques was instructed to take off his clothes. He was then given a velvet bathrobe and led to the post-decanting quality check room. A line of Siyuan-kin were lying there, still fast asleep from their vat-induced dreams. They were, of course, completely naked, but also completely slicked up from the vat goo and ready to be tested.
Jacques could feel his inner dragon rising to the occasion. Scales popped up on his face and arms in excitement at seeing the beautiful naked forms of the sleeping Siyuan-kin. “Good morning, beautiful,” he told them, walking over the very first one who was only faintly starting to stir. He could see that this model actually was fitted with breasts and other female parts. “Oh look at you, you’re going to be amazing.”
Jacques leaned in to kiss the sleeping Siyuan-kin, who moaned into the kiss on instinct. This aroused Jacques even more, his double-headed piston of love now standing at full attention. He was very regretful that this Siyuan-kin was not his soulmate, or else her Red Collar of Fate would have glowed. But still, just because she wasn’t his, didn’t mean he wasn’t allowed to sample the goods. It was his job, after all.
Jacques quickly spread the Siyuan-kin’s legs, and —
Lux yawned and scrolled down.Liu Siyuan blinked at her. “You have no interest in this?” he wondered.
“I’ve read better,” replied Lux, examining her nails idly. “‘Ilraen’s Vacation’ had hotter sex.”
Liu Siyuan spluttered. “How many of these fanfics does Yile-qianbei have?”
“A good amount!” Lux grinned at him. “He’s an Andalite, which makes him pretty exotic! And he used to work with Numey.”
Liu Siyuan nodded. “The, er, Agent Supernumerary that was… tamed? In your previous recommendation?”
“Yup!” Lux nodded happily. “I haven’t seen him around in a while, Numey. I guess he finally snapped and went off on a long-expected vacation! Shame you never got to meet him. You two could’ve helped each other pull the sticks out of your asses.” She winked, clearly implying she would not object to witnessing such a situation.
Liu Siyuan glowered at her. “Compared to you, anyone with a sense of decency or personal boundaries would look as if they had a branch in their backside.”
“Everyone boring, you mean,” retorted Lux.
Liu Siyuan raised an eyebrow. “If I am so boring, you are perfectly welcome to leave me alone.”
“But how can I resist this? Lulu’s so cute when he’s clutching his pearls at boring kinkfic,” tittered Lux, wriggling happily. Liu Siyuan looked up at the rafters in exasperation before shoving the blonde out of his lap.
“Oh, Siyuan, ah, Siyuan,” panted Jacques, his warm dragon breath tickling at the Siyuan-kin’s rosy-cream neck. “I’m so close, sweet little meimei, you feel so good when you take me…”“Jacques-gege!” squealed the Siyuan-kin in her sleep, her hands clutching wildly at him. Jacques wondered if her dreams were as good as his reality, where he could put each of his love rods into a warm and slippery environment, squeezed in on all sides by her inner muscles. Maybe she was dreaming of two Jacques-kin when it was just him. He wishes he could join her in her dreams and fill her up with his superior Jieyuan Co. Ltd. brand Man-Cream™.
“I told you,” said Lux smugly. “It’s actually kinda impressive that Lilith’s able to make Jaq-Jaq having a double-headed ding-dong be a completely boring detail.”Liu Siyuan tilted his head at the tablet in consternation. “Did… did he trademark his —”
“Yup!” Lux shook her head. “Like I said, I’ve read better. Heck, I’ve written better. My comprehensive how-to guide on defloration was better than this!”
“Please tell me that is a gardening guide,” grumbled Liu Siyuan.
“It’s not!” Lux grinned from ear to ear. “I mean, it could be, if you wanted to give some Flowers some love —”
“Xing-qianbei!” exclaimed Liu Siyuan loudly, as the door to the PPC Lounge opened again to admit a distraction in the form of three new people. “Lin-qianbei! Did you require more help in clearing out the…” he sighed, “Chinese food?”
“That’s why we brought backup of our own!” chirped Mandy Singh, waving at him. She then nudged said backup, who appeared to be an elf of a similar build and handsomeness as Naergondir, with a similar light in his eyes. “Huinesoron, say hi to Agent Liu!”
Agent Huinesoron regarded Liu Siyuan with a wary coolness as he put a hand to his chest. “Well met,” he said, a little stiffly. “Agent Huinesoron of DOGA and DAS, at your service.”
“Liu Siyuan of DBS at yours,” replied Liu Siyuan, with a bow of his head. It was difficult to appear dignified with Lux of all people inching back into his personal space.
Agent Huinesoron seemed to have noticed that as well. “We’re not interrupting anything, are we?” he asked, arching an eyebrow.
“Just some badfic!” interjected Lux, turning around to stick her legs across Liu Siyuan’s lap. “Lulu here is the star of it! Sort of. His clones have taken over Headquarters!”
“She is talking about the events in the fic,” appended Liu Siyuan quickly, moving her legs away.
“Ooh, this I gotta see.” Mandy bounded over to the couch, leaning over one armrest to read the tablet over Liu Siyuan’s shoulder. “I am Ryan. I am fifteen,” she read, “I am fifteen and I am the newest barista at Cafe Jenny Obsquo! This is my new job and I am so excited!”
“Mandy,” chided Lin Wei-ting from Agent Huinesoron’s other side. “We still need to move the kung pao chicken and egg drop soup, remember?”
“Wait, this is funny!” Mandy quickly took a seat on the couch next to Lux, gesturing for her colleagues to join them. “Come on, just a little bit of badfic? As a treat?”
“Since when is badfic considered a treat?” wondered Agent Huinesoron, long-suffering.
“Since when it’s funny and clearly not affecting us!” chirped Mandy. “You should consider this bonding time!”
“I have been here longer than you,” pointed out Agent Huinesoron. “I have plenty of close acquaintances that I have bonded with, nay, even friends.”
“We’re not friends?” Mandy gasped in mock affront, before looking over at Lin Wei-ting. “Did you hear that, Wei-ting? We’re not even close acquaintances. Oh, my heart! My poor mortal heart!”
“How will we ever carry on?” agreed Lin Wei-ting with similar levels of pathos.
Agent Huinesoron audibly exhaled and sent a look of commiseration at Liu Siyuan. “These two and Naergondir have spoken of you,” he said. “It almost seems inevitable that our paths would cross. As if certain Narrative Laws have had a hand in our fates.”
“The Narrative Gods do have a certain sense of humour,” agreed Liu Siyuan.
“See, I told you.” Mandy smirked knowingly at Lin Wei-ting. “Let’s stay a little bit. I want to know more about this fifteen-year-old barista.”
In another space-time bubble in the Bonneverse:I am Ryan. I am fifteen! I am fifteen and I am the newest barista at Cafe Jenny Obsquo! This is my new job and I am so excited!
I have long black hair like undulating midnight waves that reach my mid-back and sparkling dark-brown eyes like rich burnt umber. I am tall, and I am willowy, and I have abs in all the right places.
“You can have abs in other places?” wondered Lin Wei-ting in tones of mild horror. He and Agent Huinesoron had joined Mandy on the couch, where he had taken Mandy’s previous spot on the armrest next to Liu Siyuan.Agent Huinesoron frowned from the other armrest, well away from both Mandy and Lux. “Who is this… Ryan?”
“Judging by the contents of the past,” Liu Siyuan resignedly glanced at the tablet, “sixty-three chapters, probably some younger variant of me.”
Agent Huinesoron considered him, probably taking in the dark robes and general not-from-the-era-of-Starbucks atmosphere. “I’m going to go out on a limb and assume you’ve never worked as a… ‘barista’, then?”
“I have no idea what a ‘barista’ is,” confirmed Liu Siyuan.
“It’s like the people that work at PPTea,” said Lin Wei-ting quickly. “They make drinks. Mostly coffee drinks, though.”
“Ah.” Liu Siyuan nodded. “I have tea-serving experience, but that may be a given considering where I hail from.”
“Eeh, not always.” Lin Wei-ting shrugged. “I prefer using tea bags, myself.”
Liu Siyuan sent him a look of abject betrayal.
I’m a cultivator, so that means I’m immortal and gorgeous, and I like to wear long flowing robes of blue-green silk embroidered with cranes. A lot of people say I look like High King Fingon (A/N: If you don’t know who he is get da heck outta here)!
“So, Huinesoron,” said Mandy, turning to the elf, “you’ve probably met Fingon, right?”“He was cousin to my king,” replied Agent Huinesoron, and, having apparently sussed out the implications in Mandy’s question, added, “I can see a light resemblance, but Agent… Liu? Is not of the Quendi.”
Mandy giggled. “No shit, Sherlock,” she said, “but he is a cultivator.”
Agent Huinesoron looked over at Liu Siyuan. “Yes, the Eldar are fond of growing things, but I fail to see how that makes Agent Liu qualify.”
“He’s not growing things,” protested Mandy. “He’s growing a golden core. From where he gets special powers. And good looks. And immortality.”
“Just because someone is handsome and immortal doesn’t make them an elf,” countered Agent Huinesoron. “Elves are distinct from Men. Men cannot become Elves.”
“The term ‘cultivator’ is a translation,” Lin Wei-ting pointed out. “The original Chinese character is xian, 仙, which is also used to describe elves and fairies.”
“An imprecise umbrella term doesn’t make someone an elf, either,” grumbled Agent Huinesoron.
“Aren’t elves in some continua short little mischief-makers?” Mandy grinned. “So isn’t the term ‘elf’ also imprecise?”
“Well, it doesn’t matter whether or not Lulu counts as an elf,” declared Lux, sprawling herself out on both Liu Siyuan and Mandy’s laps so that she could ogle Agent Huinesoron upside-down. “The point is, he’s a long-haired immortal pretty boy who makes bad decisions. He’d fit right in with you guys.” She winked.
Agent Huinesoron and Liu Siyuan shared matching looks of scepticism, before Liu Siyuan took the tablet from Lux and continued to read:
Today I was gracefully making latte hearts in people’s cups! I was very good at it because I am a cultivator. But even though I was happy to see other people happy with my drinks, I was also very sad. I wanted to know who my soulmate was. For as long as I could remember, and ever since I was born, I had a red collar on my neck. The collar was supposed to glow the moment I met my soulmate.“One cup of Love Power Latte, please!” said a handsome baritone voice from behind while I was frothing my milk. I turned around, and all of a sudden my neck felt very warm. I gasped, looking into a pair of deep cerulean orbs.
Those were the eyes of my soulmate! I shivered. “Who are you?” I asked.
“Yofennob Seuqcaj,” said my soulmate with a smile. He had hair the colour of burnt honey amber and eyes the colour of a cornflower pond. He smelt of coffee, cocaine, and a whiff of byronic despair.
Lux started to laugh. “Yofennob Seuqcaj? Gee, I wonder who that is.” She sent Agent Huinesoron an upside-down wink.The Noldo considered the name for a moment, and then asked (with clear dread in his voice), “Is it… Vorindo?”
Liu Siyuan raised an eyebrow. “You are familiar with Bo-qianbei?”
“Oh stars, no,” said Agent Huinesoron, shaking his head a little too emphatically. “Naergondir is his friend — somehow — so everything I know about him, I have learnt against my will.”
I wrote down my soulmate’s name, and then gasped when I realised the truth. It was a code name, of course! And it stood for… Jacques Bonnefoy!I was so starstruck! I am biggest fan! He is the lead singer of BTS (Bonnefoy The Star), and everyone in the Bonneverse loved him. His videos on BonneBonne (A/N: like BiliBili lol) are the highest-rated ones ever, because his voice was like liquid sex!
“Jacques!” I gasped, and then quickly put my hands over my Red Collar of Fate, which was still glowing. I was very self-conscious about my collar. It’s my biggest insecurity.
My soulmate put a finger to his lips. “Please don’t tell anyone else. This is just our little secret.” He winked at me. “I have to use a secret codename every time I go out, so the paparazzi won’t notice me. But you’re right, I’m Jacques.”
“Here’s your latte,” I said with shaking hands and a quivering voice. I pushed the cup of latte at him. “I know you probably have a lot of people whose collars light up when they see you, but —”
Jacques shook his head. “No, actually, I know none of them really love me for who I really am, on the inside. I know they adore me but I am so lonely sometimes. The other band members are nice, but I need true love.”
“I just gave you some,” I joked, gesturing towards the latte. He sipped it and smiled.
“Perfect,” he said. “I’ve been watching you for a while, you know. You have the cutest smile and I’m so glad you’re my soulmate. What’s your name?”
“Ryan,” I said shyly. “Ryan Liu.” (A/N: so his English name is Ryan lol! What a twist!)
“Ryan,” said Jacques seriously. “Would you like to go on tour with me?”
“Lilith needs to find her own material,” said Lux, shaking her head. “This is just blatant plagiarism of ‘A Lion’s Pride’.”“…Is that also a fic starring Yile-qianbei?” asked Liu Siyuan.
“No, actually.” Lux sat back up — or was pushed back up by Mandy — and shifted so that her legs were dangling over the back of the couch. This had the unfortunate side effect of making her skirt fly up, causing Liu Siyuan to politely avert his gaze. “It stars Jaq-Jaq and Zebby! Literally, because Jacques is a Broadway actor in it. And he meets Zeb in a coffee shop.”
Liu Siyuan really needed to leave his RC more. He had only some idea who Zeb was, and that was mostly because Dawn McKenna had mentioned him a couple times before.
“I thought coffee shops were a popular place for fanfiction meet-cutes,” remarked Mandy.
“Sure, they’re practically archetypal at this point,” agreed Lux, “but this particular combination of coffee shop meet-cute plus Jaq-Jaq being a musical star is a little suspect, isn’t it?”
“Says the person who once staged a musical with him involving a cardboard cutout of Dafydd Illian and a boar’s head,” grumbled Agent Huinesoron.
Luxury pouted at him. “It was avant-garde! You wouldn’t understand.”
“And I’m all the better for it,” agreed Agent Huinesoron.
In a different space-time bubble, but at the same time:Jieke-chan was sitting across the table in the cafeteria at PPC High from his senpai Siyuan-kun.
Liu Siyuan put his head in his hands. Lin Wei-ting gingerly patted his back.“There, there,” said the scientist. “At least they got the vague geographical region right?”
“The Celestial Empire and Dongying are not the same!” hissed Liu Siyuan.
“The whatsits?” asked Mandy.
“Ancient China and Ancient Japan,” said Lin Wei-ting quickly.
“Oh, yeah.” Mandy shook her head, and then turned and grinned at Agent Huinesoron. “It’s like the Noldor versus the Sindar.”
Agent Huinesoron raised an eyebrow. “So… a band of seven people from Ancient China and their followers immigrate to Ancient Japan and eventually end up causing the downfall of Ancient Japan because of their father’s shiny?”
“Okay, more just ‘two completely different languages that everyone assumes are mutually intelligible because they’re spoken by people of a certain race’,” amended Mandy.
Today was the day he had to ask his senpai to notice him. Siyuan-kun was so elegant it made Jieke-chan’s heart skip a beat. He was so in love and needed to make sure his feelings were returned.Also with Jieke-chan was his best friend Dawn-chan (A/N: I know it’s bad to have a self-insert so this is my friend instead!). She was a neko girl. She had kawaii nekomimi desu.
The cherry blossoms were falling outside. It was so beautiful and pink. Siyuan-kun should have a Red Collar of Fate, but it wasn’t visible underneath his gakuran. Jieke-chan wondered if he could make Siyuan-kun reveal the collar just to see if it’s him. He had to come up with a plan.
“You can do this!” cheered Dawn-chan. She started to beat a taiko drum. (A/N: I don’t know how they cheer in China but that’s how it is Japan so close enough right?)
Jieke-chan girded his lions. “Siyuan-kun,” he said, approaching the taller senpai, blushing with a letter and homemade chocolates, “please take care of me.”
Siyuan-kun took the letter. It was a hart felt confession. It said:
Siyuan-kun,
Will you go to prom? With me???
Jieke-chan
Siyuan-kun gasped, one tear falling from his eyes onto the letter. He suddenly remembered how the two of them had grown up together. How Jieke-chan was always there for him. His heart swelled in his chest. He dropped the letter and took Jieke-chan’s hand with one of his hands. The other one undid a button on his gakuran and gave it to Jieke-chan.
“EHHHH? YABAI!” screamed Dawn-chan. (A/N: Yabai is just oy vey in Japanese!)
Jieke-chan’s eyes went wide and he blushed. “Siyuan-kun?” he gasped. He blushed.
Siyuan-kun opened the collar of his gakuran to reveal a soft red glow. His Red Collar of Fate was glowing! Jieke-chan couldn’t believe his eyes.
“Senpai’s collar has been glowing ever since we met in elementary school,” said Siyuan-kun, as he pressed the button into Jieke-chan’s hands. “Senpai hopes Jieke-chan will take care of him, too.”
“Jieke-chan love-loves Siyuan-kun!” exclaimed Jieke-chan, and then he leaned up and KISSEDhim (A/N: omg!!) and the cherry blossom petals fell into Siyuan-kun’s long ebony hair. It was so beautiful.
Siyuan-kun blushed when they pulled apart with just a small string of saliva hanging in the air as a sign of their connection. “My heart is on fire, Jieke-chan,” he breathed dramatically. “I need to take a bath and cool down…”
Lux, who had slid off the couch and was now curled up near Liu Siyuan’s shins, poked her chin up onto his lap with a frown.Liu Siyuan raised the tablet to look down at her. “And which PPC fanfic is Lilith copying now?”
“Well, with the love confession and the friend helping with said love confession,” mused Lux, “I would have to say ‘Should U, Wuld U, Kudzu B Mine?’. Not as clear-cut as the segment ripping off of ‘A Lion’s Pride’, but ‘Should U, Wuld U, Kudzu B Mine?’ is already a Brechtian deconstruction of PPC fanfiction, with all of the classic hallmarks: overpowered original agents, romance involving Flowers, non-diegetic audience apostrophe…”
“You mean in-text author’s notes?” asked Mandy.
Lux’s nose wrinkled. “‘Should U, Wuld U, Kudzu B Mine?’ is a masterpiece,” she declared. “This is just the cheap Chinese knock-off!”
The three agents of Chinese descent in the room raised their eyebrows.
Lux laughed sheepishly. “Whoops, sorry!” She then sent a wide-eyed look over at Agent Huinesoron, who grimaced at her in a ‘better you than me’ sort of way.
“Since the fic mentions factory clones of myself, I guess the comparison was warranted,” muttered Liu Siyuan as he continued to scroll.
“It’s like a trainwreck. A slow-moving trainwreck of awfulness,” said Dawn McKenna as the group examined the video footage of various points in the Bonneverse. There were the cloning and decanting factories where Siyuan-kin were made and prepared to be sent to Jacques-kin and other citizens of the Bonneverse. There were glimpses into preserves modelled after Liuying Valley, where Siyuan-kin of all sorts happily mated with their soulmate Jacques-kin. There was footage of a younger barista!Siyuan-kin blushing at an older idol!Jacques-kin, as well as a young high school student!Jacques-kin blushing at an older student!Siyuan-kin.“Great. The Multiverse can’t take this much critical instability,” said Lori Starrett. “We’re going to have to do something about this. What do you think, Siyuan?”
The original Liu Siyuan, along with his younger A-Wang and Yuanyuan counterparts, slammed a hand on the table. “First, we have to rescue Sect Leader Liu,” he said. “He’s the one who created Bobby; he’ll know all of Bobby’s weaknesses.”
“Part of the power that Bobby wields is the Key to Bonnefoy,” added A-Wang, pulling up a picture. The Key looked like Jack Harkness’s wrist strap, but there were glowing stones inside. “We have to get that off of him too before we can destroy him.”
“Okay,” said Dawn, “but should we do that first or rescue Sect Leader Liu first?”
“What in the what-the-heck-a-hedron is happening?” Mandy made a face at the tablet. “I thought we were at a high school? Or a coffee shop? Maybe the coffee shop was across the street from the high school?”“Oh, you missed a lot of the earlier bits!” said Lux, still leaning against Liu Siyuan’s knee. “Basically one of Lulu’s clones made an Urple tentacle monster that possessed Jacques and made him take over the Multiverse.”
“You were not here for that,” Liu Siyuan pointed out. “Did you read the earlier chapters, too?”
“What, like it’s hard?” scoffed Lux, blinking innocently up at him.
Liu Siyuan shook his head. “I cannot think of anyone who would willingly want to read this monstrosity.”
“Aren’t we doing that right now?” wondered Mandy.
“I lost a bet,” said Liu Siyuan. “The rest of you are here of your own volition.”
“And with that reminder, I think maybe it’s time I attempted exiting stage left,” announced Agent Huinesoron, rising to his feet. He looked at his colleagues, then gestured towards a tray of kung pao chicken and a large container of egg drop soup. “Shouldn’t we be getting these back to DAS before they get too cold to salvage?”
Lin Wei-ting sighed, clambering off of the armrest. “Yeah, probably,” he agreed. “Come on, Mandy.”
Mandy scrunched up her nose. “You’ll be okay, right, Siyuan?” she asked. “You know you don’t have to finish, either.”
“No, my honour hangs in the balance,” stated Liu Siyuan with a comically grave expression. “I refuse to let Bo-qianbei win. I do not want to wear a t-shirt to mahjong.”
Lin Wei-ting snorted. “I’m sure you could pull off a t-shirt,” he said.
Liu Siyuan blinked. He was pretty sure the scientist did not actually mean to encourage him to undress; that sounded more like something Lux would do. “I thank you for your faith in me,” he said, “but I would rather keep my clothes as they are.”
“Bo~ring,” teased Lux, finally getting back onto the couch as Mandy vacated it. This time, she sat atop the backrest, perched like a scantily-clad bird. As Agent Huinesoron helped Mandy and Lin Wei-ting carry out the very last trays of Chinese takeout, Lux caught the elf’s eye from across the room and blew a kiss at him.
Agent Huinesoron sent a commiserating look at Liu Siyuan, before he pointedly turned away and headed out of the Lounge.
Lux sighed. “It’s always the prissy ones.”
Liu Siyuan had no idea what to say to that, so he held up the tablet. “Moving on?” he asked.
That cheered her up immediately. “Moving on!” agreed Lux brightly, before nudging his shoulder with her shin. “Lulu’s being so nice to me all of a sudden!”
“I would prefer not to go blind alone,” replied Liu Siyuan, and pulled up the next chapter.

Chapter 3 ((Content Warning: BL2))
“EEEEEEEEyyo demon” said Chelsea, calling for Demon ”ayo ayoooooooooooo”
“Stop yodeling Chelsea” said lemon
Chelsea did a bridge “nuh”. Then she yodeled some more.
“Maybe we need candles and soma chalk?” asked May Ruse
“but we didn’t need those things when he came to our rc” said Chelsea
“True”
“Let’s try it anyway!”
Then there was a knock on the door
“I hope we can beat the—”
A fist broke through the door, and then it opened it revealing another muscley dude, except he was from the government military and a gerudo.
“Wow, a male Gerudo, you must be super special” said Chelsea
“Excuse you, I’m the Gerudo, he’s not!” said the Gerudo.
“huh I’m confused”
“Maybe you shouldn’t be doing bridges all day!”
“Hey I’m not doing—”
“Why don’t you hand over our RC?????” cried the muscle dude.
“It’s not yours you dumdum!” May Ruse pointed out
“That’s it!!!!!!!!” Then muscley dude pulled out a gun and tried to shoot only for Lemon to reflect all the bullets with a broom.
“OUT” Then Lemon wacked the military man with the broom while the Gerudo lady tries to hold her off.
“Hey,” says May “let’s try to summon him now”
“why” asked Chelsea
“so we can toss him at these jerkwads”
“ooooooooooooooh”
And so the two agents got out all the candles and the chalk and the instruction book/necrominonionionnoin and chanted the magic words
The agents who were fighting stopped and watched as the circle flashed revealing……………….
Betelgoose
“Honk”Everyone everywhere paused to look at the goose
“What is thaaaaaaaaaaaaaat” asked the dude
“Obviously it’s a goose” said the gerudo
“Not just any goose!” Declared Chelsea as she walked to the enemy agents.
She ran to throw the goose at the agents but Lmon slammed the door making Chelsea crash but without making an inkling-shaped hole in the door.
then Lemon beep booped on the portal activator and then the agents in the hall went “aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa”
“Duuuuude what the frick” said Chelsea.
Betelgoose looked at Chelsea, then at May Ruse, then at Lemon, before opening the door and jumping into the portal after the agents before the portal closed.
Everyone’s confused
The end
………………..og the chapter, that is!

Of Trolls and Talking, Chapter 3: A Finale by

(Author’s Note: Hi guys! Sorry ‘bout the finale being a day late - college essays were rough this week and my brother still refused to help actually write. Anyways, I had to cram to get this done at all, so I hope you like this more than the last chapter, I think!
Thanks for reading this dumb tribute to my brother’s favorite internet group, I guess.
-Lou Caroline, signing off)
(Disclaimer: The Protectors of the Plot Continuum belongs to Jay and Acacia.)
(Content Warnings: This chapter contains big flowers, a big insect-troll things, plant philosophy, creativity shields[singular], disappearing, and the void.)
The door to the Sunflower Official’s office blew open in a blast of wood shards, metal scraps, and clouds of dust.
”PEW PEW PEW!” roared a voice from the haze, echoing around the small room a thousand times over, almost tinkling like the sounds of bells shattering glass.
A figure stepped through - tall, gray-skinned, with empty eyes aglow with innate prismatic light and a leering grin stretching her exoskeletal face across her nonexistent skull. Her wings buzzed with sheer menace as she hovered into the room, and her orange horns resting atop her head seemed to glint in the light.
”Y’gatha arrives,” she purred, lowering herself to the ground, right in front of the overgrown weed’s desk, resting her elbows on the wood and her chin on her hands.
The Sunflower Official, despite having no eyes, bothered to tilt its head down to give the impression of sight.
You could have just knocked, you know.
”Haha! Why would Y’gatha?” She leaned further forward, kicking one of her heels up into the air. ”What will the Weed that Walks do, I wonder? Call your gatekeeper dogs on me?”
She pulled herself upright and sat back on the guest chair, putting her hands behind her head and propping her legs atop the desk. ”But no, Y’gatha is not here for knocking. Y’gatha is here for talking.”
The Sunflower Official did not blink, as he was a flower, but he did fold his fronds in front of his stem and lower his head in quiet condescension
You know, I could very easily pop you like a tick right now. I was having a very nice rest, you see.
Y’gatha heard a very clear mental sigh emanate throughout the room.
But because I have no interest in instigating violence at the moment, I’ll let you speak. So. The Sunflower Official leaned forward, and Y’gatha found herself tilting back her head in order to maintain eye-to-disk contact.
What brings you here?
Y’gatha’s grin grew so wide it looked like her head was splitting in half lengthways. ”Oh, you see,” she growled, ”The TriumVirate of Tropers and the Organization of the Red Dits have unanimously declared your organization… unnecessary. Your gatekeepers stifle imagination and free speech! You kill those who do not fall into your standards of good and indoctrinate those you find weak-willed enough! You establish dictatorship through CONTROl! And your reign of gatekeeping terror ends HERE!”
The Sunflower Official stood unmoved.
And these organizations, which have never once bothered to contact us in the past, have sent… you? I see… well, I hope you’ve gotten that out of your system. Good day to you.
There was a short silence.
Y’gatha then broke said silence with a shrill shriek, whipping her legs off the desk and replacing them with her fists, both glowing with swirling iridescent light.
”WHAT?!” she roared, cocky grin transformed into a huge, face-splitting scowl that almost made her sculpted flesh dip down below her chin. ”You disRESPECT Y’gatha! You dISRESPECT Y’GATHA like an INSECT?”
She slammed her fists onto the desk, leaving cracks in the surface. Then she did it again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, akin to a baby having a temper tantrum.
”You should have WILTED!” she screeched. You should have shrunk BACK like the BULLIES YOU ARE! You should have FEARED Y’GATHA, DESTROYER OF EVERYTHING!”
She stomped atop of the desk and raised her head to the Sunflower Official’s level. ”Why.” she hissed, eyes glittering bright. ”Why do you not fear Y’gatha like you should.”
Because nothing here matters.
Just like that, Y’gatha Mesome seemed to run out of steam. She dropped down, collapsing in her chair, energy and light fading from her fists. ”What?” she said, voice quiet for the first time since she had arrived.
Nothing here matters. The Sunflower Official sat up straight in its pot, lifted a frond, and tapped on empty air - or at least it seemed to be air at first. The frond made an audible noise of contact, and for a moment, a grid of translucent hexagons was visible.
See that? The Official’s mind-voice sounded resigned. The work of a Creativity Shield. Meant to keep us in, and the true canon out in the real world.
He pushed against his desk, his pot gliding back like a rolling chair. They folded their fronds over their soil and mind-sighed. You see, we… we don’t exist. We aren’t real. We are but warped, fractured facsimiles of the actual Protectors of the Plot Continuum Headquarters, sealed here to prevent us from accidentally disrupting space-time stability.
And if we cannot exist, truly, then did we ever exist to begin with? Do we truly exist? If a story is told but no one hears it, did it ever occur?
The Sunflower Official moved back over to the desk, petals bristling. So. The reason why I don’t treat any of this with some alleged “deserved” respect? I’ve been cursed with this knowledge. It doesn’t matter, anyway, as we are to be discarded as the month fades.
And he was silent.
Y’gatha blinked. Then she growled, standing up and pushing her chair over. ”You lie,” she said. ”Y’’gatha has purpose! Your confusing gatekeeper babble has no hold over one as pure as myself! And I will prove it by DESTROYING YOUR FUN SUCKING WET BLANKET CONTINUUM!”
Y’gatha turned in a huff, ready to leave, then stopped.
The door was gone, in its place a solid wall with no trace or markings where it used to be.
Y’gatha whirled back towards the Sunflower Official and noticed the desk and chairs had disappeared as well, leaving just the Flower sitting in his pot like nothing unusual had happened.
”What are you doing?” Y’gatha screeched. Glittery energy coalesced around her hands, and she leaned in close to the overgrown plant. ”Just what game are you trying to play with Y’gatha?”
None, I’m afraid, the Official said, the tone of his mind-voice unchanged.
Then the walls and ceiling disappeared, gone like they had never existed, revealing a purplish-black void littered with specks of light scattering the distance. They glimmered and winked and lit up the remnants of the floor Y’gatha and the Sunflower Official stood on.
“What did you DO?!” Y’gatha screamed. She staggered back, expression going from anger to surprise, then fear. The floor, the last remnant of the Sunflower Official’s office still existing, rocked with her every movement on the ocean of the void like a boat in the water. “What’s happening?!”
Nothing, said the Official. It seems the Word World has decided to purge itself, though. Noncanonicity tends to lend itself to things like this, I’ve heard.
Y’gatha took one step towards the Flower, then another, her legs fighting back her attempts to move as the floating Generic platform continued to spin through space.
Then the floor disappeared, and it was just Y’gatha and the Sunflower official floating amongst the stars. Y’gatha threw her arms out, wings buzzing to keep her from falling down into the infinite abyss. The Sunflower Official stayed in the same position he was at before the ground vanished, hovering in his pot, head tilted at her in silent condescension.
”Stop this!” Y’gatha screamed, grabbing her horns tightly and pulling in distress. ”Stop it! STOP IT, Y’GATHA COMMANDS YOU!”
Happy Badfic Games, said the Sunflower Official. Then he disappeared.
Y’gatha gazed upon the infinite void, at the emptiness, at the lights. It suddenly dawned on her just how lonely she was now. She found herself alone with the knowledge that nothing she did, nothing she saw, nothing truly mattered under the pressing force of this all-powerful Creativity Shield. And that was just the way it was.
She opened her mouth to scream, and disappeared.
((Author’s Note: Hi! It was nice contributing to the Badfic Games this year, and I hoped y’all loved or hated this piece to the extent it deserved. For the curious? The entire plotline of this trilogy was created over the course of a few days, and I decided this year to just write like I usually do, just without beta readers. And the result was badfic. Whoopee.
On the TriumVirate of Tropers thrown randomly into the story… well, I picked up a lowered opinion of TV Tropes earlier this year after seeing their review page of the PPC, which… isn’t very well-informed, considerably dated in a lot of things and just overall smug and derogatory. Especially the reply thread connected to it. So hey, just a little bit of self-indulgent destressing here. And he, it’s the badfic games. Random personal gripes chucked clumsily into fics are, like, a pretty common thing to see in badfic, y’know?
Anyways, thanks for suffering with me.

He hadn't meant to, but he'd held his tongue all through Tash's lecture, and on top of that, Julian/Estril's and Rebecca's comments tickled his funnybone. He was still angry, but he no longer felt helpless about it. Quite the contrary, in fact.
"Thank you," he said to the non-gods. "You see clearly. And so do I."
He turned back to Tash with a cool smile. "I am sure who I am, actually. Like you said, I see a lot: beginnings, middles, and ends. Lots of them. Endless possibilities. But some are more likely than others. Me being the Lone One? Not gonna happen. But you... I guess you could say you've got choices, at least until our two years are up. I want to make sure you know that. If you want to call that 'meddling'..." His eyes narrowed slightly. It was such a loaded word, completely unfair to go throwing it around like that. But he took a deep breath and put it aside. "I guess that's fine. But it's your choice what you do about it, not mine."
He paused, then added, "'The End' doesn't have to be a bad thing, you know."

All 14 current issues are listed, though the 4 ongoing parts aren't yet linked. I have published Special Edition, though, since there hasn't been any movement on that in a while.
A few archiving things: doc, I've gone ahead and split up the pieces of Tash's ending. The first three scenes are in "Rumours", "Let the Show Begin", and "Coarse and Unrefined"; the others will appear in "Curtain Call". I've also shuffled Tash's concert up to the 15th; there was a gap in the timeline there, and I don't think you'd timefixed it.
Neshomeh, similarly, I've put the Ellimist's performance in "Let the Show Begin". I've also had to write a one-line tag from the Ellimist to transition to doc's scene, which features the unseen Kord performance.
A few random things have been placed in "Special Edition" - I think Tomash and Lily both wrote scenes which could have led to RPs, but didn't, and had a media theme.
None of this means the event is over! I'd really like to see endings to Tash's and Stone's concert-RPs, and anyone else who wants to chip in with an ending (or even an interview for "Special Edition"), please, please do! I'm even happy to incorporate brand new RPs, or to pull things out from where they've been filed if people decide to expand them!
I don't know when I'll post the final scene, but given that we've had two endings written in the last 48 hours, it definitely won't be soon. :)

I love the contrast that is El-Ahrairah - on the one hand he was one of the most playful gods, but on the other, he may have the deepest wells of anger too. Everything he feels seems to be close to the surface, and you've worked with that marvellously for his ending.
I also really like the way you integrated El-Ahrairah with Agamemnon. Many of the gods were either 'mortal self with a veneer of godhood' or 'the god with a different body', but you mixed the two into a brand new whole. It's been entirely fascinating to watch.
There were several grand plans laid during this event that didn't quite come to fruition, but the one I most regret is not getting to see more of the Anti-Divinity project. That's not a slight against you - it's the opposite, I wish there had been more because it was so entertaining! But working through the Board like this was always going to mean things trailed off; I am glad we got this End for him. (Though if you feel like/feel up to adding a brief Agamemnon-Algie aftermath scene, I'd be delighted to slip it into the archive!)
Thank you very much for taking part. :)

I really like the way you've incorporated the Poppins mythos into the farewell, to the point where I'm slightly regretting not doing the same kind of thing for Yavanna. :) I don't think the style is mismatched - the whole point of this event was for people to show the different ways that different people respond to getting this power dropped on them - and removed.
You've also made me decide that I may need an "aftermath" scene for Tanfin as well; otherwise I'll be missing out!
Mary Poppins was definitely the most unusual request for godhood. I think I went and asked Kaitlyn if she thought it would work, because she's read at least some of the books; apparently she said yes, and she (and you) were right. You've had a lot to try and work in - everyone's going to be thinking of the Disney version, and then I feel like Ananke's words during the ascension came out somewhat at odds with your own view of the character. But you pulled it off masterfully!
One thing I regret is not giving Mary a more distinctive costume; I think I literally just slapped an umbrella on your description of Jiwon! The cover version gets a tiny bow tie by way of apology.
Thank you very much for taking part. :)

El-Ahrairah was dancing when the sun went dark.
I will miss you.
He stopped dead, quite startling the woman he was dancing with. The sudden lack of a partner to steady her sent her sprawling into a minibar, and she reappeared with several pretzels stuck to her face. The god didn't notice. The sun was going dark.
What do you mean?, he thought as he sprinted out of the room, the corridors a blur. What's happening?
Your time is ending, El-Ahrairah, said the blue eyes in his head, ice-cold and ancient. Your dance is done.
And who precisely are you to decide that? You have never told us a d*mned thing about who you really are! The sun was getting darker and the lights were going out, one by one, his children were disappearing and there was a sad old woman in his head.
I am your herald-
Then you are a "servant!" El-Ahrairah was running as fast as he could, his children vanishing from his sight with every beat of his heart. "And yet you serve none but yourself! You tell us we are gods for two years, and yet a month passes and you rip it away yourself! What, Ananke, O great inevitability, is the source of this? Was there perhaps some sort of clerical error? Did you deliver godhood to the wrong address?"
You will be silent!
"I will not!" More lights went out, more darkness, his legs were slowing and he couldn't feel with his feet properly. "You say one thing and do another! We were never anything to you! I was never-"
SILENCE.
The First Rabbit loped round a corner, looking old, so old, and its eyes were wrong. El-Ahrairah stopped, panting, and bent to pick the rabbit up and found he couldn't straighten his back again, he felt like he was made of lead and he couldn't focus on anything beyond the glowing blue eyes in the First Rabbit's human face.
You will listen, now, El-Ahrairah, beloved of Frith, beloved of me. I am your humble servant. I love you as I always have, perhaps cooler than your vivacity but no less keenly felt. Your presence in the cycle is a blessing. You bring such life. You sing without voice. You run, and change is ever in your wake, and I am always sad when you depart. The Rabbit's eyes were blue, so very blue, and its face was old, and its voice was soft and breaking. The sun was setting. There is much you can do. Much left undone. But when you return, and you will, you will do it again. You will keep me honest, and keep the mortal world in thrall to your passions. And you, I shall dearly miss.
There was a stick in El-Ahrairah's hand, and he knew it, and he knew what to do with it. With the last of his strength, he drew the sword, swung it hard-
But you... you were never a god.
Agamemnon's blade slashed through the empty air. He looked around him. DAS-SWEAR's airy corridors were all about. He was dressed well - immodestly, perhaps, but such was the present fashion. He was as he had been before the blue, blue eyes. He looked around him again.
The rabbit was gone.

The End Of The PPC by

A/N: oh wow this still exists?? cringe tbh. to think i used to like this place lmfao. anyway here's
wonderwallmy new and last ppc missionSo I was flying with my girlfriend Lilith on our way to blow up Hogwarts Castle for fun. We were using our wings this time (the Tardis joyrides were getting boring), I had dragon wings and she had six angel wings. I looked at her purple eyes and went “I’m so glad I ran away with you from the PPC instead of killing you all those years ago because I saw you weren’t that bad and also you were beautiful and then you accepted me as a girl because the PPC is actually transphobic”, and she went “Thanks”, and I went “Oh actually now that I think about it it’s been exactly seven years hasn’t it”, and she went “Oh no”, and I went “What?”, and she went “Don’t mention it, something bad might ha-” and then I heard a portal open behind us and something grabbed me and everything went black.
*************
I woke up handcuffed to a hospital bed with IVs stuck in my arm. The nurse said “Hello, how are you doing?”, and I replied “What happened?”, and she said “You were kidnapped by a Mary Sue seven years ago, and we finally tracked her back and rescued you.” I tried metalbending my shackles off, and it didn’t work, so I asked “Where are my powers?”, and she replied “We’ve been removing the glitter from you and your icky Suvian powers are gone, you must still be confused by everything that happened, don’t worry everything will be fine, also this also applies to shapeshifting powers so you’re a guy again now.” I yelled “No!”, and then I asked “What happened to Lilith?”, and she said “Oh, they killed her, you’re welcome”, and so I screamed and cried and they sedated me again.
*************
Over the next six months I made a full recovery and went back to being a perfectly respectable PPC agent, or so they thought. Secretly, instead of killing the Sues I was sent to kill, I portaled them to a safe place and started building an army. One of them hacked my glitter monitor so it wouldn’t work anymore, and so I started building up power again. Then on one fateful day I requested an audience with all the Flowers. “Why are we all here?”, asked the Sunflower Official. “You are all here to DIE!”, I said, and pressed a button on my portal thing, and all the Sues came out of the portal and killed all the Flowers. Lilith was resurrected because it turned out the Flowers were Suefluencing everything all along. I picked up the PA system’s microphone and went “The PPC is officially disbanded because I killed all your bosses, you can do whatever you want, have fun!” Then everyone was finally free to live as they want instead of caring about other people’s fanfiction, and I kissed my gf. All was well. The end.
((I actually have a less bad version of the general idea planned for, uh, eventually. Not in my actual spinoff, just noncanonical AU fun. -owo))

Although not being able to beta would be perfectly appropriate: I have made zero changes to allow for JayBird's supposed beta, so I think her girlfriend is literally just telling her how cool she is. Why do you think I thought of Brandy? ^_~ (Her A/N spelling has improved because of her supposed Maturity, but also because I'm now just closing my eyes and typing blind with badly-positioned hands to make it, rather than deliberately speelin glick tihs.) There is a non-insignificant chance that the girlfriend doesn't even exist!
I'm now wondering if we could convincingly RP the story of their meetup and JayBird's broken heart in the reviews and chapters of this story... I don't suppose Brandy happens to be passing through New England? ("Where in New England?" "Wherever JB is, obvs!")
(I'm sure I've written Badfic Game Author fanfic before...)

Do you really think Brandy could beta her way out of a paper bag, given her own writing? {; P Anyway, I think IRL she's too awkward to have the slightest idea how to be in a romantic relationship with anyone. Online BFFs is a whole 'nother kettle of macaroni.
... That said, I'm now imagining them meeting, and JayBird having entirely the wrong idea, and everything being super weird, and by the end of it Brandy finally figures out what's happening and does the whole "OMG sorry I don't like you like that but we're still friends, right?" thing, and JayBird goes "Yeah, haha, of course!" but is secretly crushed and takes it out on Aurora in the next fic and there is Online Drama.
...

You know you've been in the PPC too long when you start writing fanfiction about the parody PPC-badfic-writer personas of yourself and your friends, eh?

A/N: This is what happens when I have too much time on my hands for researching random PPC stuff. A Plort fic.
There is generally a war going on somewhere in Plort. There was a war going on now, in fact. The Marizu were invading, and somehow they ambushed Neshomeh and imprisoned her in Kwotef. Baron Huinesoron held a council to determine how to rescue her. Few of the people of Plort had ever been inside the high walls surrounding it, and it was a dangerous place full of the legions of the Marizu. Various strategies and plans were discussed, but no conclusion was reached. The council adjourned and Huinesoron went to his office to think. A few minutes later, he heard someone knocking on the door.
((I love medieval stuff, and I'm hoping to get a coat of arms and hopefully participate in a Plort RP if anyone still does that. -Claire))
