Aww that was so sweet! And good work making a poem that didn't crash and burn like so many of mine.

Brilliant poem Neshomeh.

That was unbelievably cute and fluffy and made me squee loudly at the adorableness. Excellently done, Neshie. =D

Poor Nume having to play Santa. He did a great job, though. XD And Ilraen's sweet as ever.

*applause*

That was total awesomesauce! The poem was cute and funny at the same time with PPC holiday spirit! *tosses around snowflake confetti*

Congratulations! ^_^ Have some celebratory cookies!

Since the filking thread fell off the front page, I don't mind sharing this here. It's more of a story in poem-form than a song anyway. Just a bit of fluff for the season.

~*~

'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through HQ,
Urple holiday fluff-fics filled everyone's queue.
The agents were sent on their missions by pair,
Without hope that any Directors would care.

While Mary-Sues died upon swift arrow-heads,
Assassins despairéd of sleeping in beds.
Bad Slashers took buddies from each other's lap
And stoic Floaters put up with all manner of crap.

In PPC HQ, no holidays matter,
Except for the sugary Suethorish chatter.
Mistletoe's just an excuse for Bad Slash,
And lights, snow, and gifts come in colors that clash.

But down in the Nurs'ry little faces still glow
As a hope and a dream unabated doth grow.
The children of HQ believe still in cheer,
Even more so this even as Christmas draws near.

Though born most of Mpreg and rapefic and squick,
Even so all the little ones dream of St. Nick.
Father Christmas, or Santa, whatever the name,
On this night the glad man in red really came!

Or someone, at least, to the little ones' den
Came dressed all as red as an editor's pen.
His face was unbearded, he was wiry and tall,
And perhaps might have wished not to be there at all.

And yet on his thin lips a smile he did try,
And a glimmer of kindness appeared in his eye.
"Now, Spencer, now Andy, and Galeya, too,
And Marsha, and Henry, and Molly: for you!"

As he named them they gathered and looked for the proof
That this stranger was more than a holiday spoof.
When out from behind him came carefully 'round
The strangest of reindeer that e'er could be found.

His fur was all blue from his head to his foot,
And eye-stalks not horns on his head had their root.
Two sacks full of toys he had slung on his back,
And nervous he looked as St. Nick did unpack.

But the toys from within made the children all merry;
Their blue deer forgave they for being so wary.
Their gratitude ample their faces did show,
And lit all the Nurs'ry about with a glow.

After all the first gifts did the odd pair bequeath,
The Christmas Tree left they the others beneath.
The wrappings were pine-green or bright red like jelly,
And the ribbons were latticed like snowflake cancelli.

The makeshift reindeer and his would-be red elf
Left each of the children to his- or herself.
"Merry Christmas; goodbye, now," their Santa Claus said,
And off through the hallways of Headquarters sped.

Soon after, in FicPsych, not spared from her work,
Jenni Robinson greeted the two with a smirk.
"It went off as plannéd, though not as I chose,"
Supernumer'ry said with an eyebrow that rose.

"His holiday spirit is truly abyssal,"
said Jenni to Ilraen, with a smile of dismissal.
"But never you mind that—you two did just right,
Bringing Christmas to all HQ's children tonight!"

The kids' names were chosen to fit the meter from the list on the Nursery page on the Wiki. The rhyme scheme is the same as the original poem, which was quite a challenge at times. For one thing, I'm aware that "merry" and "wary" aren't necessarily a true rhyme. Maybe I'll think of something better later. {= )

One hundred and twelve thousand words, fourteen months worth of free time, and it's DONE! :D!

It's called The Grand Vizier of Oz and is a musicalverse AU. There are twenty chapters, starting here, in case any of you are interested in reading it.

I'm just so HAPPY; had to share it. :D

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

And then we'll feed it to a troll just for lulz.

But marble is not that hard... you take a hammer and chisle to marble and marble loses. So really if you're armed with a BFB with the tip covered with aggregated diamond nanorods then you'd have a dead meyerpire.

And if it takes more then one shot (unlikely but plausible) to take them down get a modified automatic machine gun and enough of those BFB, along with lighter fluid and some matches... I'll have to test it out but it might just work.

They're not made of diamonds, silly, there's diamonds buried in the surface of their skin. Which is made of marble.

That last one is painful to look at. I'm going to assume it is a troll for the sake of my sanity.

Oh and don't forget the mirror and the wet cat. No one escapes the wet cat alive, not even a meyerpire, or 'diamonds'.

speaking of which why would diamonds need to feed on blood? and if they are made of diamonds why aren't they see-through? And if they are 'diamond' are they susceptible to aggregated diamond nanorods(an allotrope of carbon first synthesized in 2005)?

Lovely to see you around, hS! Merry Christmas and other winter holiday greetings, in case we don't see you again till after.

Sounds like fun, count me in! Just let me get my baseball bat and some mace just in case he tries anything funny.

We hear he is a stalkerish schiz-
O if ever a schizo there was!
If ever O ever a stalker there was
This sparkly jerk is one because....

In these cases, you need to look at how long it is since the fic was updated. If it's a year or more, it's probably safe to assume that the author has abandoned it and won't be coming back.

You can PPC an incomplete fic. In most cases those missions would also end up with a dead Sue.

I don't think there is a point in going back into a fic if the author continues it, unless they explicitly resurrect the Sue you killed and their story becomes a critique of your mission, like your mission was a critique of their story. That could get confusing.

So, yes to your last question/suggestion.

And you don't tell the author to stop, you give them pointers how to improve their story. PPC-ers don't actually police the fandom. So, unlike the police, we can't tell authors whether or not they can or cannot continue down the road they are traveling on.

An honour and squeeage... first time anyone's had that response to me. *flattered*

Did... did he just combine Sonic with Halo? Not to mention the fact that he spelled "Covenant" wrong.
This gives me rage of the powered armor variety!

Just by those basic descriptions I can tell these won't be fun.

"This is a story in which it is behind the scenes of Sonic X. This contains Sonadow, SonBlur and SonBluradow. the last two you will learn about later Also contains incest."

"Somy the Hedgehog,the son of Sonic the Hedgehog, has to kill all the commmunists on the Cauvnent planet like his dad did to the Cauvnents before and make President Master Chief proud of him and avendge their deaths!"

Its plot was a bit too 'aliens are better than you', but, a.) it's essentially a film about Native Americans being kicked off their land, so of course they're going to be shown in a better light, and b.) the plot is secondary to this movie's true goal, which was essentially to create an inhabited moon from scratch and show it off. And in that respect, it succeeds.

We're off to whack a creepy schizophrenic stalker! the creepiest schizophrenic stalker of all! (bar few!) [to the tune of 'we're off to see the wizard']

SQUEE!!! *ahem* excuse my brief lapse of self-control there and let me go whack myself over the head a few times. Preferably with a nice thick volume of "Common Sense and where to find it: By Mr. Ed" s'cuse me for a minute here...

but really, oh. my. flying. spaghetti. monster. I just barely read the PPC gathering of York in 2008 and let me say its an honour.

But really Hello, and thank you for welcoming me to the board and the shiny object.

what do you do if the BadFic you're about to go into isn't finished? Do you tell the author to stop? And then if they don't stop say stop again?

Or do you just do the mission and then return to it if s/he/it continues the BadFic afterwards?

Or if you've killed the 'Sue do you just let it go once you've done the original mission and leave it at that.

just a minor confusion.
