Good day, all.
We of the Department of Fictional Psychology congratulate Agents Sara Knight and Zach Homewood on the completion of a successful mission. However, we are concerned with some of the particulars of said mission. We would like it to be known that any use of the "snaperrifle" in any capacity other than the strictly professional will result in the offending party being banned from all Bleeprin supplies. We simply do not wish to contemplate the kind of mayhem such a thing would cause in the halls of HQ.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
The Kudzu Vine

Clearly actually getting up in the morning has something going for it, for as I stared at the morning's emails and worked my way through the first pint-and-a-half of tea of the day, it started snowing. And it's only just stopped. And there's loads. It's ace.

The comments thing is more a rule of thumb, especially midway through a story that I'm trying to decide if I want to continue reading.

Looks good! Loved the Snaperrifle, it had me laughing hard enough that my roomie came and checked on me.
Spotted a typo, btw: “'Mithril coat be damned, for grying silver tears, having your villain randomly grow wings, randomly having an orgy in the Mines of Moria'”

Shiny. And potentially very disturbing. "snaperrifle"... *snigger*.

So Drake throws it to Lux, by

who throws it on to someone else, who discards it when they get bored with it and someone else picks it up and passes it to someone else ad infinitum?
Sounds good to me.

I get this with reviewers - why do people care whether or not they're the first to review, or comment, or report? I just don't get it.
(And don't feel obliged to answer - that was mainly rhetorical.)

I like Drake handing off the DORKS. by

I think Lux is being unfairly abused, though. She isn't the only agent crazy enough to mess around with a random DORKS.
If we wanted to descend into the truly ridiculous, we could have the thing handed off multiple times:
"Oh, that? Yeah, I had it, but after I poked it a few times and it didn't do what I wanted, I threw it at a random passer-by for laughs. Dunno where it is now."
"DORKS? Yeah, some jerk threw it at me. Didn't seem to work, so I dropped it in the Fountain of Bleepka."
"I thought I saw a really nice sword in the Fountain of Bleepka, but when I picked it up, it was just a DORKS. So I left it in the cafeteria."
Et cetera, et cetera.

That and plotholes. by

It's always plotholes when Sue-stuff gets involved.
I thought there might have been some interaction between the DORKS and the contaminated portal device, too, since they were both contaminated at the same source. Like I said, if someone tried hooking the portal device up to the main network, that's an easy connection between it and the portals/plotholes HQ is made of. Once the entire portal/plothole network of HQ is exposed, everyone is exposed.
That way, we still need the DORKS to fix it--it's just that we also need the DORKS to talk to the portal to talk to the network. Does that make sense?

Although there seems to be a temporary delay, caused by us spurning missions in favour of the epic Poignant Pevensie Porn saga. Whoops.
And once the punishment's done, Trojie and Pads will be returning to HQ just in time for the genderbending incident...

Given that C&D had no PPC technology with them (although apparently they did have a portal generator of some sort, unless the door they came in through is local), introducing the flashpatch as a source wouldn't solve any problems, and would just mean we were chasing the wrong bit of tech for the entire story. So it's easier to keep it as the DORKS and just assume it's Narrative Comedy at work.

Hahahahaha! But it is! The only way to stop it is if you come to my evil lair, perferably in some skintight costume that enhances your female attributes, in order to steal the secret Book of Retcons from my not-so secret vault oviously designed for an easy ambush! And no, I haven't read the Evil Overlord List. Why do you ask?

Darths and Droids is excellent, isn't it? I love how they've explained the Death Star plans away.
