A shortish fic involving a vampire (this one's for the time skip, because Agent Moon has history with noncanonical spacefaring vampires) and a very long...thing with a planet of magical unicorns. I kid you not.

I can dig out the links, if you're feeling masochistic.

Dayn stumbled back, laughing, and flung the balloon in his hand in self-defence. It hit Michel directly in the face, and the Pyro dodged away, though he slipped on the now-wet floor and fell.

"Oof!" He rolled over, reaching for the little bag full of waterbombs that he had brought with him, only to find it out of his reach and the glowering Slasher standing between it and him. "Er. Oops?" he tried, with a disarming grin.

I'll remember that for next time.

When there's another thread on the top of the page showing badfic, it's usually a better idea to post it in that thread as well to conserve front page space instead of bumping a later thread off needlessly.

... they're fighting each other.

Next thing you know, they're back to bantering and watering the whole place, including its inhabitants, human or otherwise. This includes the Flowers.

haha, watering the Flowers, haha.

I wonder if this large elaborate post citing the definitions on a cursory google search will do anything to clarify to there people.

At this point, my guess is 'no,' and I'm understanding why Sedri was so hesitant to spend any time talking to these people.

I believe this is the 'proper' writing rule. I think it's kind of wormed it's way into more casual writing to actually use an 'an' for words that sound like a vowel though. At that point, it comes down to whether you want to follow the letter of the law or the spirit - accept reinterpretations of language or stay purist.

I might have to rescind that statement. The comments were infinitely more fun to read than the actual story was, and they were pretty consistently funny throughout.

"Rouge! If you have any more of these, fill them up!" he called through the open door of his RC.

He stepped forward, ignoring the sloshing sound coming from his saturated boots. "I will teach you," he growled, translating his earlier sentence, "to show some respect!"

He darted around the corner and hurled the final balloon at Dayn. It struck the agent on the thigh with a satisfying splash.

This story is like the condensation of all the awful, creepy things that typically appear in Org. XIII slashfic. I can't even read this kind of crap without feeling a little sick.

...Pak'ma'ra will eat anything, as long as it has been dead for a week.

One as a section of my multi-part timeskip mission, and one for my other set of agents. Both fics are...brain-breaking, to say the least. I've only gotten through the first five pages of the longer fic, but I've already found two Minis.

I'm leaning towards the Mini-pak'ma'ra. Fun could be had with carrion-eating Minis.

Well, I just read fanfic, I don't write it, but I want a warning for any relationship that isn't going on in canon. If it is one that has been in canon, but in later seasons is no more, then I still want a warning for that, unless the story is already marked as being set in that time frame.

If it is a solid canon relationship, then if there were no warnings I would think that is what the story was going to include. I wouldn't want a warning for a story that had Leia and Han together. I would want a warning on a story that had Han and anyone else together or Leia and anyone else together. That holds for canon male/male or female/female relationships. I would not expect a warning for a Ukiah Oregon story that had Atticus and Ru, or Ukiah's moms together. (There should be more Ukiah Oregon :( fanfic!)

Hooo boy. I suppose it's too much to hope that you intend to kill it and the rest of us can forget about it and ignore our stupid senses of obligation?

Huh. Well, that would at least be fair, certainly, and it is a good point.

The remaining question is, in that case, do you still use any kind of tag for a canon couple?

Well, I am an idealist.

Also, not a lot of people read my stuff, so I'm not inundated with anything.

Nobody? Your line of questioning is odd. I prefer stories with strong female leads. I read and write stories with strong female leads. I don't think that qualifies me as "in charge of feminism."

As for how strong my women are? They're strong enough to not have their lives revolve around men. Strong enough to solve their own problems. Strong enough to have flaws and work with or around them.

Welcome to the PPC! Here's a dagger set from the Raven Armory and a bottle of bleeprin. I'll be nice, I promise.

Hoo boy. This story, you guys... It makes me yearn for RL brain bleach.

From what I saw from a cursory read-through, this story is very bad. It's a Saix/Demyx Mpreg story with some Axel/Roxas on the side. Everyone is horribly OOC (including a caring and sympathetic Xemnas), time is put through the wringer (ten years in two chapters!), the prose tends toward the purple end of the spectrum and there are superfluous ellipses everywhere.

The kicker for me, though, was the final chapter. There is a touching scene where Axel gets a little "close" with Saix and Demyx's son (who is ten years old at this point). We're talking very bad touch.

Hell no. At least Paolini uses a tried and true formula for his stories (the Hero's Journey for anyone interested)

Your agents look like fun, and you can definitely write well. Consider yourself permitted.

A knock sounds on the RC door, and Randall opens it. He barely has time to see the smiling agents on the other side before they throw a bucket of water in his face.

"What is this!" he cries, stumbling back.

"A water fight. I wondered when I might need this," Alexis answers, pulling out a huge gun and filling it with water. "Take one, we're going hunting!"

A smile slowly spreads across the soaked agent's face, but is quickly dispelled. "What about the console?"

"That is the biggest reason to chase them. Here—this one's full."

Randall just managed to catch the gun his partner threw at him before it fell on the floor. He spent some time trying to get comfortable with it, and wound up pulling the trigger.

"Randall?" his partner cried, now wetter than he was. "You do notshoot your senior partner...at least not without expecting retaliation!"

The blast of water hit Randall in the chest and splashed across the small room. The console was somehow aware of this, and let out an alarmed-sounding BEEP!

"Let's take this outside. Here, give me that. I'll fill it up again."

When both water guns were full, the two agents carefully exited their RC. Randall's grin was quite predatory.

And who died and put you in charge of feminism?
