that ought to be easy. Just go the the Torchwood category on the pit. (not the uberpit). On any given page 2/3 of fics are "Janto". Statistics say that can't all be badfic, but statistics is just a very complex way of lying.

Likewise, people who mess with F'nor or F'lessan get my bell somewhere *painful* ...

*distributes lembas* Poor dragonrider!Erik needs it...

... You would have to work really hard to write Pern slash and make it horrible, considering that dragonriders are the perfect excuse for that sort of thing. Heck, the whole Pernese culture is more lax about sex than ours, really.

I may regret this, but should you happen to come across anything at all involving Robinton, I want it. NOBODY messes with the Masterharper on my watch. }=
On a lighter note, see my reply to Makari for a link to Pern goodfic.

~Neshomeh

I role-played in Pern before the fandom opened up to fic, so I was already acquainted with a variety of horrors in the fandom. You have NO IDEA the lengths to which fangirls will go to make their dragons, and their characters, "special." *shudder*

For Pern goodfic, though, check out Astrokath. She makes me happy. ^_^

~Neshomeh

Give her to Ungoliant? Or some other light-hating powerful being?

~Neshomeh who made the same error in her youth.

On the missions front, I've done DOGA and DoWTF officially, with some of the DOGA missions being DMS stuff in disguise. I guess the co-mission with Neshomeh and Kippur was DMS mostly, too. I've also done the DIO, and about half of a Bad Slash mission which was supposed to be a lead in to Crashing Down. That kind of didn't work out, but I'll probably finish it someday. Oh, and I've done an Intelligence report with Agent Kyaris.

On the other writing front, I have Agents in just about every major Department, to the extent that I can't even remember who most of them are. But not many of them have actual missions written for them, so.

hS

But I'm planning on taking on both Sues (because I have an extremely bloodthirsty agent), and Bad Slash (as that's something of a personal pet hate for my agents). As they're in the DoF, this should (hopefully) work out.

"Morgoth's Ring", from the Histories of Middle Earth, tells us that Elves mature much quicker than humans mentally and can speak, walk and even dance by their first birthday.

However, physical puberty sets in around 50-100 years old, though they reach their adult height by about 50. So you'll get your bad biology charge, Legolas hasn't even hit puberty yet according to your fic.

I'm willing to take suggestions. So far my kills have been death by Mirkwood spider and death by arrow to the throat. I fancy something fairly lingering, personally... though not too splattery, I've got to shepherd a new Agent through it.

There's two new LJ comms that have popped up in the past couple of days, courtesy of discussions on fanficrants, that might interest some of you.

Plotbunnies Farm
Have you ever gotten a plotbunny that just won't go away? Have you ever wanted to just give it to someone else for them to be infected use? Well, now you can.

Just post them up here and let them run wild. All fandoms, genres and pairings are accepted. Come in and spread the plotbunny love.

Bad Lube Day
Really. Don't use this kind of stuff as lube. What is mentioned here is stuff that should never, never, NEVER be used as lube

That reminds me - where are you getting the info on Elves' ageing from? 'Cause we've got a very woobiefied 40 year old Legolas acting like a cross between a 13 year old girl and a stable-boy, and it'd be nice to hit it with a bad Elvish biology charge. (And I'm too lazy to go poking through the Sil, obviously.)

She's read the Appendices, for Eru's sake! That's farther than I've gone (sadly, I'm only at the end of FOTR), and I can still keep to the canon better than she can. I'm actually willing to bet on that, you know.

If you're really going to claim the 'fic, one thing: Make sure she gets a special death. Nobody steals the name of one of the Valar and gets off easily.

Paper that allows whoever's holding it to show people what the want to see. If, for example, you needed to get into a heavily defended enemy base, you could show the guard the paper and they'd think you were the delivery boy or a higher ranked officer with access rights, depending what's more appropriate.

I'm quite annoyed by this one. A canon-knowing canon-buster always annoys me.

Intelligence looks up the missions and sends them to the Agents that fit the bill for tackling it. That's what leads to some of the mix-ups sometimes, like Slash Agents getting Sues (when said Slashers aren't rigging the console to steal missions). Sometimes the Flowers do take a hand (or leaf) in assigning missions, generally the majorly awful ones like in the case of That Series, but I don't think they make a regular thing of it.

The DMS has lots of Divisions, like LOTR, Harry Potter and Video Games. Anyone who takes on Video Games would naturally cover only those games for which they know the canon, but they'd receive their missions just like anyone else. Just because your Agents are the first known of Video Games Division doesn't mean they have to make decisions about all Video Game fics, if you see what I mean.

And if I recall correctly, just as a note to anybody who might read this, the DMS has a Floaters Division, which means they take on any fandom they're competent with.

What's that exactly? Paper that is psychic or paper used by psychics?

Here, have some psychic paper. It's always useful. Just don't let it get you in trouble...

It'll probably mostly be 'Sues, assuming I get around to finishing any of these, but I'd like to take a look at Bad Slash and crossovers, too.

So, I guess either that Department would send the missions to Agents, or I think there's sometimes an implication that it's the Flowers.

...I've done three Mary Sues and a bad AU. I'm currently planning to go into crossovers, though, and I'll probably do Bad Slash at some point.

I, uh, kind of haven't written anything yet (stupid GCSEs sucking away all my free time) but once I get my act together/the Christmas holiday starts, I'll be starting my first mission. Probably. >

Now I have a joyride vehicle!

It doesn't even have to be on the entire city, just the walls, or things. Then include things like the city could be made Unplottable (Harry Potter), Magically and Technologically Hidden and the fact that it's the PPC, we don't use logic on it, it keeps the city pretty safe.
