Not even a little bit of Angsty Mansex? *pouts*

I've skimmed through the first couple of chapters and it doesn't look too bad to me. That said, the only stuff I usually see with OCs in is stuff being sporked by DMS agents, so I can see it's definitely better than that, but not much else. I'll look forward to betaing the revised version though.

You know, the more I think about it, the more I like the idea of a sort of tea house where one can sit down and have a good brew and also get one's essays proofread.

Hey all

Our Wiki is looking really good these days, but we still have over 300 wanted pages - and while a lot of them are pages for Agents, there are still a lot of canon characters, tech, worlds, events and so on that have redlinked pages.

If everyone pitched in and did a page each, just one page, a night for a week, even if it was just putting in the very bare bones and making a stub page, then we could get a decent chunk of these redlinks gone :)

And if people could also look over and check none of their agents have redlinks that would be cool too - *someone* must know who all these people are!

We don't need vast amounts of detail. We just need a couple of sentences - the great thing is that once a page has been created, people will edit it, but everyone seems to be shy of being the person to create the page.

Everyone's been doing a great job of keeping the missions up to date, and the Unclaimed, Claimed and Killed Badfic Lists, and the pages we already have are always being checked over for spelling and content, which is awesome, and huge thanks to everyone who does that. Even if you just move a comma to its correct place, that's still a help.

But let's see if we can't kick that Wanted Pages list into shape, shall we?

This is in desperate need of attention, both because it is unfinished, which bothers me, and because I started writing it a million years ago, and therefore it sucks, which bothers me more. The fact that it's based on a role-play that took place a million years ago doesn't help, but still. The guy who played Snape and I both have versions, and we've both decided to re-write to bring the whole thing as close to canon as possible. That means there probably won't be Angsty Mansex, but there will be Teenage Drama, and I'll probably have to cut it with some bizarre humor such as the Shoebox has to offer. Plus, the Shoebox Project is just plain awesome.

Tea and copy editing, all under the same roof. Hmmm. It could work. I must give it some thought....

Ooo, are you writing some sort of Potterverse thingy? With Angsty Mansex? *crosses fingers*

If you'd asked me a month ago, I'd say sure thing, but Ansela's already claimed my loft, she's moving in next weekend. Sorry. :P But if you want to move over here and start up a tea and copy editing shop and you need staff, just let me know.

Jeeze... I wish I could go back. I've been re-reading Harry Potter and reading the Shoebox Project in preparation for a massive fanfic undertaking, and it's making me miss England terribly. And now this. And the Armouries look really cool, what with the shinies and the critters and all. I think the most critters I saw in one place on my trip were the ravens at the Tower of London (unless you count my classmates), and I couldn't pet those.

My fiance and I could move in with one of you guys for a while, right? Just until we got jobs, right? ... Let's just never mind that no British publisher is probably going to want an American on staff. That's okay, I'll sell tea or flowers or something. I'm looking into tea stores over here as it is.

... Anyway. I'm glad the Gathering worked out. This third of it at least sounds like a great time. {= )

The other two thirds to come whenever Cassie and Laburnum feel like uploading their photos and sticking them all together in an lj post.

Forgive me for the massive size of photos; resizing is beyond my meagre interwebly talents.

Happy birthday, person! Good luck with that interview.

Here, have a Girl Genius slaver wasp-detecting weasel.

*gifts a box of assorted fruit-flavored Galadriel-brand™ lembas* Twenty is a good birthday. You're officially no longer a teenager. Woo!

Good luck with the job interview, too.

*helps self to Sedri's muffins on the way out*

And all the best to you!
We wish it was our birthday,
So we could party too! (Wooh!)
Happy Birthday! Here's a set of daggers from the Raven Armory and a tub of chocolate chip gelato (Italian ice-cream). Good luck with the interview!

Don't ask me to set a date, I'm there most of the time! XD

Since the 10th is a Saturday, perhaps the 17th? How long are you around for? I can skive classes without too much issue, but a weekend might make it easier for others.

Oh and FYI, the Ashmolean is down for refurbishment until Novemeber. But I like the Natural History museum, and there's others as well, as well as the more geeky pursuits, like the botanic gardens and Christ Church collage (both of which have entrance fees, although CC isn't as bad as I thought it would be: £6 for an adult, which is totally worth it for the Harry Potter geekgasm you have when you come round the door to the entrance to the great hall).

(And if a meet doesn't happen, and you want to go to Oxford anyway, or if anyone wants to be touristy coming from London, get the Oxford Tube (it's a bus) from outside Victoria station. It takes more time than the train (about an hour and a half depending on traffic), but it's cheapish and it has wireless that sort of works. Plus, it's pretty much 24/7).

Also, Bleepka, chocolate, and muffins. Because there happen to be a big pile of muffins here.

:D

I have way too much to be doing, so if anyone wants to do it (borrow "Mossflower Science Theatre" if you like) it's up for grabs.

I just turned twenty. Yay. And I have a job interview on my birthday. Blegh. But it's still my birthday, so yay anyway.

... who was described as having measurements of 800-2-400. In inches. And no, none of those numbers is a typo. So her waist is two inches around, and her boobs have a circumference of nearly 67 feet.

Most Sues aren't quite that horrifying, but they do tend to have ... slightly exaggerated figures.

As I will be coming in via France, I should have a dead line to be there.

You know what did it? Everyone's squeezing the fanbrat-Japanese for cute in there, because it's fanbratty, but you managed to mis-spell it. How you brung yourself to type it and hit post is beyond me. Salutations; I am impressed.

Glad to see someone else has read the Dragonback series. Zahn has always been my favorite author.

Honestly, the number of Sues described as twigs...

I mean, beanpoles are one thing, since that implies that it's due to a recent growth spurt and that there is a real muscle structure there, but they're usually described as out-and-out twigs about to be blown away by a stiff breeze!

A Star Wars Sue gone.

BTW, for my next mission, I'm looking for all the ways the Mary Sue physique would constitute Blessed With Suck.
