What's "Musée des Univers Perdus"?

It should go to the wiki. I love the idea.

After reading the first sentence to miss Meip, Agents Rose/Ross and Meip are willing to take on this travesty. Might give us a break from Tortallverse.

So yeah. *claims*

I don’t need a babysitter. I’m capable of handling myself. She said. Your just wasting his skills and mine. She said. Murtagh was trying desperately not to laugh at her reaction and how stubborn she was being.

My comment: An abysmal canon, and I'm looking forward to the day it goes to the Musée des Univers Perdus, but it's still a plot continuum and therefore the PPC's duty to protect it.

GDI is somewhat morally dubious aside from the whole "Saving the human race from getting turned into crystal" thing. Also, Kane spent the entire third game saving the human race from aliens and apparently got a tiberium remote control out of the Tacitus prior to the fourth game.

Your story sounds a lot like one of my others. I've got a Command & Conquer fic where the main character works for the Brotherhood of Nod as one of Kane's best soldiers, but her brother works for GDI, the opposite side. Essentially, Nod are the bad guys but no-one really knows what Kane is up to (even his own forces) and she is devoted in her belief of Kane. Therefore, I protray GDI as the bad guys (what pushed her to joining Nod in the first place).

It really seems that cure synthesis should have been the highest priority. Maybe the area it had to be done in was overrun, though one would think that would be mentioned.

Ah, good idea. Perhaps a book on grammar and style as well...

His partner also has a plan that involves *is gagged to prevent disclosing things* *glares*

Mmmphmph mmmphnnphmph.

thanks for the correction in wars, should have looked it up.

I like the fic idea that you have. Origional fic idea I have has a blured like between the good side and the bad side. I am going to try and write something where you don:t actually know which side is which until the very end, using brothers. The brothers, themselves, are peaceful to each other, but thier respective mentors are the one with the problems. I don:t know when I am going to write it out (still in character development stage) and probably wont be written for some time.

I just figured it had a different meaning in real life and forty years on. After all, gay used to mean happy forty years ago.

... they used an assortment of books. To quote The Un-Sueing of Vemi...

She held out her hand to Rosie, who handed her The Meaning of Liff and a bound copy of CNell's "A Maiden from a Distant World". Rosie herself hefted her well-worn copy of ROTK.

Of course, Vemi had turned herself into an LotR-Sue rather than a generic one, but... how about a sharp blow to the head with a dictionary?

Finally got hold of Cassie. Her train's in at 12.09. So if we go for 12.30 rather than 12.45 (or even 12.25 in your case) then the sign will be there before the people who need to spot it.

So I take it it's just the three of us then? No hS or anyone?

Roughly. As far as I know, it comes from "between child and teenager", since ten-year-olds tend to think they're more mature than nine-year-olds. I also think it may have come from Lord of the Rings, because if I recall right, they used that name or a similar one for Hobbits in their twenties, which were effectively equivalent to teenagers.

Not sure, but that seems to make sense in this context.

I hear it everywhere and no-one's given me an answer. I'm fairly sure it's not the singular of Tweenies (THANK GOD).

However, on the Tolkien point, a) it was WWI, not WWII, I believe and b) I'm a equal fan of fantasies where good and evil are very distinct, but I also like stories where the lines are blurred to the point where you could show the story from the other side and still feel like you're supporting the good guys. I'm attempting to write a fic like that, actually. My hero from the first story (where good and evil was, with a few exceptions (i.e. when he went a bit insane), fairly defined, will make a lot of decisions that seem off. The army of the good guys will be shown to have far more prejudices that I show in the first fic, where they're generally better than humans. I'm considering having a spin-off from the point of the characters affected by my hero's actions.

What way do you recommend to De-Stu-ify an Agent? One of mine ate some dodgy punctuation, and has since been acting funny, the latest being that he "Manefested" a "Kbifem" with a "Knickle guard". We're currently wracking our brains as to how to de-stu him, and thusfar have come up with a trip to medical, or a trip into the Reality Room... Neither of which sound at all appealing to poor Ross...

It's serious. He's beginning to bleed glitter!

So. Any suggestions?

--And here I have to point out that I've never seen the Star Trek episodes in question myself--but I believe the reason was that the PPC's Medical Department was simply too swamped with casualties, and with actually fighting off the viruses, to synthesize the cure. As soon as the big bugs were killed off, they were free to get on with it. You'd have to ask Tawaki to be sure, though.

Personally, I suspect it's a side effect of Real World time leeching into HQ, where it doesn't really have any business being. Comes of keeping a Door open to New Caledonia and mucking about with TARDISes and such.

I'm glad you liked my story, anyway. {= )

I was shouting. Just not at you. Therefore, th'art justified. Woulda got my hackles up, too.

And that is a crazy awesome story.

...then sorry for being defensive. I just felt like I was being shouted at.
