Could also explain the time fluctuations. I had time pass in HQ as roughly congruent to the real world, going by Laburnum's backstory, but that could also be explained by her portalling into the real world for short periods on a fairly frequent basis ...

In accumulated snark, cynicism, and looking good in hats I'm about ninety.

I'll tell you a secret. *looks around furtively*
When I was little, I thought Isengard was the tower.
Movieverse canon is perfectly fine, I think, although there are those who do not agree with me. Have you seen all the movies?

I have a rant about this dating back years.

I didn't actually read past the point where her "heritage" was revealed...

Yup, the metal could be painted green. It would be a Magical Mary-Sue Weapon, so for Glod's sake don't get in the way of it. Steal it as soon as she puts it down or something. I expect it'll either turn into a training lightsaber (as the not as powerful as a lightsaber descrip would suggest), cease to exist out of pure logic once she's dead ("curved" lightsaber beam + logic = poof!), or revert into an actual green-painted vibrosword. While her influence is still around, it will, unfortunately behave as she describes, but as soon as she's dead...

And, considering the vagaries of fic-time, my Agents have existed anywhere from ten years to two. ^_^

But I did check~ and it's true.

It's a thrilling read. Really.

is a MISTAKE.

but I haven't actually read the lord of the Rings trilogy. Blasphemy, I know, but I keep getting distracted by other shiny stuffs, and at least I don't write fic for it. I *do* usually know LOTR badfic when I see it, though, and I've picked up a fair amount from reading missions. I still wouldn't want to risk messing up with my facts on an MST.

Many elements of the PPC have been retconned or changed over time. My money's on the exact number being uncertain, with 75 million or so the absolute maximum possible. Still, several thousand at any one time makes the most time.

It probably fluctuates. There could be a dozen Untanglers one day and a hundred the next without anyone actually joining or quitting, due to the shifts in time-space. Some may be present in the here-and-now more frequently than others--for example, Trojie and Pads exist far more than Nume and Ilraen do most of the time, and they exist more than someone like Head Nurse Suzine in FicPsych, who has a name but hasn't actually had any spoken dialogue (yet).

In the case of the Invasion, there were probably more existent agents due to the fact that the universe was paying attention to them. When the Invasion was over, they went back to not being particularly real.

That's how I think of it, anyway.

would dosing a Bleach Quincy/Captain/Vizard/Arrancar!Sue with some of Kurotsuchi Mayuri's Superhuman Formula before stabbing her count as torture?

Drop her in the middle of the Kinslaying. I don't know off the top of my head if she'd look like one of the Sea Elves (or even if that's the right term for them), but there's still a good chance she'd be shot or burned or trampled or drowned or all of the above.

~Neshomeh, who can't think of much worse a fate for any elf-kin.

The two words do sound very similar. I figure "psalms" makes the most sense in context.

'Poster expressions' is very, very screwed up. It just might be for the DoWTF. The 'Yue' ones... well... Japanese? In LOTR? Stupid, stupid Suvians. No. Just no. Never mind the fact that the name makes it sound a whole lot like a Naruto crossover, even if it wasn't supposed to be one. Honestly, I'm getting sick of all this retarded filth. Someone really should take a large, burning, and preferably pointy object to these 'fics.

Have a Prinny suit! It provides a large stat boost and makes people say "-dood" at the end of every sentence. Oh, and it makes the wearer very explosive (in a videogame-style, resurrect-able way) when thrown. Also, congratulations!

It's nice to see you around the Board.

At last, more people willing to take on the horrors of badslash! Keep a ready supply of Bleeprin, watch out for Lux, and why not join the AHAIRQL? We need more players, what with Pads being unable to play due to being heavily pregnant.

*eagerly awaits first mission*

The highest known room number in HQ (the Special Operations Room) is about 74.5 million. And the lowest is about -10. So there's quite a lot of space going around. But then we have the SO's statement to Jay and Acy that there are only a dozen Untanglers...

How many Agents are there in HQ?

Judging by casualties sustained during invasions and the fairly high turn-over rate, there must be a lot. After all, there are hundreds of new badfics written every day in the English language alone. Also, a force of over 1000 (presumably Warrior) Mary Sues was quickly and efficiently routed despite the element of surprise and the OOC Spies.
