I find that an extremely interesting idea as well (and actually postulated that for an alternate ending to a Rose Weasley suicide fic by a Hermione fan and former pseudo-H/Hr fan by the name of pstibbons.
However, personally... I just find the whole concept of suicidal tendencies to be so messed up (less a pain that is so great and so terminal that it cannot be cured) that I would not normally even think of such a thing.
I appreciate your view though... And are you new here, I seem to have missed your into thread?

sure, but why not subvert/invert this by having a story about a suicidal protagonist who goes back in time to keep his own parents from getting together so that he never exists?

so i was browsing the pottersues blog today and noticed an OC named Ahsoka lupin, who was Remus Lupin's 'Cosine.' How do you guys think a trigonometric function such as this would manifest itself in-universe?

I think the disguises are just to make things easier. I mean, as far as I can tell, it keeps them from having to neuralyze anyone that happened to see them. In one of the TOS, Agents Sean and Lux tagged along, undisguised. This would lead me to assume it is possible. But, as you of all people know, I've been here for a shorter time than you. Thankfully, I tend to absorb information like mad (whether that is healthy or not). Anyway, my two cents are in.
P.S. Just came across info stating that most missions end with neuralyzations anyway at this point, due to the massive twisting of the canon. That would lead me to assume that the disguises are more to make things easier than anything else.

Story Locations and Disguises by

Does it matter where your written works are kept? I keep seeing livejournal over and over again, but I already have my own site. Could I just use that instead? Wiki doesn't specify (as far as I can tell).
Also, if you can maintain good storytelling, is it necessary to disguise your characters every time they go after a fic?
For example, if I had a ninja, would s/he have to be disguised, even if nobody (that is a canon character) ever saw them? Certainly there are times when it would be necessary to be disguised, but is it possible to perform a majority of missions undisguised as long as you keep it interesting?

I already qualified on something else. I am claiming the prize of betaing the mess that this mission is probably currently in. :D
This is Miah and Cali's first mission together, and my first attempt at sporking a badfic.
Really, the writing wasn't too horrible in this story, and I thought the story had potential to be good--if it was rewritten as an original fiction with vampires she made up herself. The thing that sealed its fate was her replacing Todd with an Original Character. He is just too cool for me to let that happen to him.

Miah recruited a character from this story. If anyone is interested in having him as an Agent, please let me know.
He is a Wraith from Stargate: Atlantis. Currently called Not!Todd. He has an atypical personality for a Wraith, which should make him safe enough to have around HQ. He will require some unique accommodations for his meals.

All I would like for a prize is a constructive review, because one can never have too many of those.

OT: Pluggage, with all respect... by

I always like the premise of the movie Back to the future... as well as everything. else about it. But the idea of being forced back in time and, in addition to trying to find a way back home, to have to help your parents get together to save your future hide always appealed to my inner 'shipper.
So... I just got the first chapter of a new fanfic up. It's been forming in my head for years but other projects (including ones that are going or went nowhere) distracted me from it. It's basically set in a possible future of the underGRADS canon, where one of the kids gets sent back in time by a government/university experiment gone wonk... and, as well as trying to get back (and getting their own parents together), decides that they have to be the ones who get together the parents of two of her best friends and try not to reveal too much to her only confidant... her future godmother. Because (it is written that) to know the future is to be trapped by it... but to know that there IS a trap is the first step in evading it.
And this kid likes being trapped.
Of course, it may also be a very detailed dream.
