Welcome to the PPC. Please deposit your sanity in the provided receptacle. *indicates bucket marked "Warg Fodder"* You shan't have much use for it here. Also, here's a life-size cardboard cutout of Edward Cullen and some matches. You know what to do.

Aargh. No, they haven't. And they have never read Warriors or LotR either, or they'd know it's called Middle-earth.

Poor Ilraen. Hopefully he'll get the hang of it soon.

that's kind of adorable :)

Not exactly a good week to be a celebrity, eh? Sure, Billy Mays was obnoxious and always shoving Oxy-Clean in everyone's face, but still, my condolences.

Thank you for all your advice. And, hey, we all write our clunkers on occasion, right?

And no, I'm not keeping the canon.

Believe me, I only brought her in so the Wrath could come down on my Agents' heads.

An art bunny bit me a couple of days ago, and this is the result. The scene in question came about at the beginning of Ilraen and Nume's second mission.

I think I need to swear. I really, REALLY need to swear. Here goes.

What the SH*T!

That second one makes me want to slaughter things. C-can I have the third one? Please?

I'm willing to suppose that Medical and FicPsych are busy, and maybe sometimes somebody slips away. I also understand the agents being too panicked to tell anybody about it. But kgarrett is right about the Hyacinth. It might be better to have her not know about the situation at all until it resolves itself.

Also, you do know you can't keep Eponine indefinitely, right?

Around here, you pretty much just have to ask. Usually someone will volunteer. If not, it tends to be because no one knows the continuum or is scared of the badfic.

And, yeah. I like to think I'm pretty good at catching my own mistakes, but nobody can get them all--unless you want to wait a month or so, so you have time to forget what should be there so you can see what is there.

Although they may have started thinking about it after that crisis ended, of course.

Warning added. The Hyacinth's lines italicized. And you're right, I do need a beta, but I'm not exactly sure how to get one. I generally proofread these things, but I guess some bits can slip through the cracks.

As to attacking LJ-based fic, Pottersues sporked this guy, so I thought it was safe for me to do so, as well.

Do you have an assesment of this fic? I mean, does it get worse in later chapters?

Can I have Natahniel? Whatever he is? (Don't know what Bartimaeus Trilogy-minis are.)

Have a shapeshifting plushie.

I'm sorry, but I really don't think the Hyacinth's incompetent enough to mistake a canon character for an intern. Also doubt she'd let them stay in HQ past whatever reason they're there for (usually Medical or a FicPsych stay).

WTF?

Have these authors never read Watership down?

Just like there's no such thing as a bad genre, surely it defies logic and probability for every single fic posted to such a large site as aff.net to be bad?

If it's a well-written fic, then the place it's posted surely can't 'ruin' its reception or the reputation of the author? I mean, most of us have probably at one time or another posted to ff.net, but despite the fact that the place has a reputation for being a pit of Mary-Sues, it doesn't follow that every fic there IS a Suefic :)

I take it you've never read The Crossbearer, then.
