After Midnight
Day Shall Come Again
Thirteen missions. Five partners. Two years on the job. Now, finally, the career of DOGA's first and greatest Agent comes to a close.
This follows directly from the end of Celebrian -- The Mission, so you should at least skim the last few paragraphs of that if you haven't read it. And I'll reveal no more.

"Well, that has to be all of them now, doesn't it? Tyler just lured about thirty off to the cafeteria." She shrugged and leaned against the wall. "Maybe we should go down there and see if they're back."
Nat shrugged and waved at the newcomer. "Okay, seeing as nobody else feels like it, I'll introduce." She nodded towards the two faceless people. "They're Inquisitor and Sister, apparently. You already know me and Cass, and I think you know Sedri and Iza."
Elsewhere, Tyler was running for his life. Having thirty stampeding ypurs behind him was almost as motivating as thirty stampeding Agents. He raced through the door ahead of him and found himself in the cafeteria lobby. Sprinting for the cafeteria door, he yanked it open and threw the sausages inside before diving behind the door.
The ypurs charged through and he slammed it shut, then leaned against it, completely winded, and gasped for breath. Fortunately, he had very good lungs, and was just about recovered by the time another group came pounding towards him. Calmly opening the door, he let them run back into the cafeteria and closed it behind them before sitting down and waiting for either Lunac or Liadan to arrive.

I'd sing off-key, but it doesn't seem to have the same effect over the internet.

Recently we have become aware that the Centre has fallen into obscurity somewhat, and with several recent arrivals we are beginning to approach maximum capacity. We were wondering if anybody would like to adopt one of our residents, and to that end, we produced the below poster. Please read it, and get in contact.
Many thanks from the Adoptions team.

would she need to be cursed with aging badly, if she's going to be killed almost straight after?
Also, more ideas. Not particularly imaginative, but she could be half-strangled by the chain on Hermione's Time-Turner! Or, possibly, she could be put in the Time-Turner room in the MoM (HPOotP) and shoved in amongst the never-ending destruction of the Time-Turners until she is deaf/has a REALLY annoying ringing in her ears?
I don't think you need to worry THAT much about having read P&P if you're not taking part in the mission. After all, I've just finished reading it - once - for my GCSE and I'm pretty defensive of it already.

Yeeeahh, about the double posting, sorry about that. I got linked to what I'm informed was the RP board from the LJ or something when the spambot was still on the loose. This seemed the more advisable place to post my intro.

Fable Sporking by
on 2008-10-01 16:47:00 UTC
Reply
I've finally gotten around to posting my first sporking. It's a Fable fic (PC and Xbox RPG with a medieval magic and swords setting, but it differs by taking very little seriously, as with most Lionhead games), but there really isn't that much to do with Fable in it. The first chapter has none of the characters in and I think the entire fic has three Canon characters out of the dozens available. Well, there is Theresa in the first chapter, but she's clearly fake, so I don't count her.
This was one of my first sporkings (written around a year ago) and is not one of my best in my opinion (I wanted to start off with a dirt-free fic before delving into the horrors of Resident Evil X and the rest of AFF). So, at the risk of quoting the Suethors, be nice.

"Foolish child. Do not kill yourself through exhaustion and overwork," Risa knelt down next to Lunac and looked him in the eye. "I suggest that you take some time to rest and regain energy before you attempt any more of your teleportations, or I will restrain you myself."
Standing up, Risa brushed off her shihakusho and resettled her zanpakuto on her hip. "Dokuha would like an apology from you. He, like many snakes, is rather prideful and does not appreciate you confusing him for a Hell Butterfly."
"What Risa's trying to say," Ansela leaned on her partner's shoulder and grinned at Lunac, "is that Dokuha is her zanpakuto, and is giving her a headache right now with his whining. Hissing. Whatever. Say, you wanna come to our RC? I'm sure I have some Super Restore or Magic Potions or Wizard Mind Bombs lying around there that might help you out. Your powers are kind of like magic, aren't they?"

They're simply called Mary Sues and possessing spirits, and by the looks of things, most claim Slaanesh as their patron. The Daemonhammers of the Division of More Dakka have been commissioned with this in mind.
And for the record, I'm a WH40k fan, not necessarily WHF.

Liadan slid across the floor, hitting the wall and collasping into an undignified pile.
"#^%&@($ Ypurs!" She cried, unaware of her newfound ability to pronounce symbols in her speech. Rubbing her head, she looked up at the group of people near her. "Oh great. None of you saw that. If any of you are thinking of telling anyone else, let me now so I can Obliviate you now." She held up her wand threateningly. Getting to her feet, she dusted herself off ignoring the wet patches on her uniform.
Liadan suddenly froze as she looked at the featureless beings before her. Blnking her eyes to see if they were playing tricks on her, they weren't, she shook her head. "Hi, not sure who you are, but hi." Looking over at Cassie, Liadan grinned. "Hiya Cassie, haven't seen you since Robecca. Good party after that, huh?"
Hearing the trampling of what had to be yet another stampede of Ypurs, Liadan instantly moved into action. Raising her wand, she moved it in a sweeping motion, muttering under her breath. Where there had previously been empty air there was now a Ypur. Looking down at this one, Liadan quirked her mouth.
"It's the one we domesticated." She told the other Agents. "So far he's been having fun acitng as transport for some of the lazier minis, but the Ypurs go off of a group mind. If one isn't running anywhere, they'll stop."
Looking up at the woman who had summoned him, the Ypur cocked his head. She was a nice woman, she smelt like sausages. A rumbling made him turn to the left. A stampede of his brethren were running at him!
At this point, the group mind Liadan had mentioned kicked in. The domesticated Ypur began running, keeping a considerable lead over the other Ypurs.
Watching the departing Ypur dumbly, Liadan let out a 'Gah!', and rubbed her temples. "That didn't go as planned."

Resisting the urge to cover his eyes or rub his temple, Lunac settled for simply shaking his head. 'Ok, I'm on my way. I'll just grab my Blissey and we'll be right over. Oh, and having my brain shredded by a Butterfly is not oly painful, but quite humiliating.'
Spreading out with his powers again, and feeling the weariness that came when he was doing too much, Lunac sighed. Connecting with his Pokemon, he asked her to head to the Cafeteria, interuppting her action of slapping a Ypur into the next century.
'We're on our way.' Lunac sent, before cutting off the connection. Looking around, Lunac shrugged, closed his eyes and spun around on the spot. Opening his eyes again, and taking a dizzy step forward, and turned a corner to find Risa and Ansela.
Lunac's eyes flashed over the pile of Ypurs. Giving the two Agents a grin, he knelt next to the bovines. "Sorry if I was short, I'm kinda tired, for obvious reasons." He told Risa. Narrowing his eyes, he glared at the ile of Ypurs, and with a 'Pop', they disappeared into the cafeteria. A spell of dizziness fell over Lunac and he fell down onto his backside, clutching his head. "Wow that does not feel good." He murmured. On his arm, one of the machines beeped rapidly, before sparking and dying. Glaring at it between his fingers, Lunac groaned.

For a crime this heinous, we should come up with an equally painful finish.
Ladies and gentlemen, the Canon has suffered enough. So, let the Canon be the one to inflict the punishment.
Firstly, we have a Chosen!Sue. For this, the Sue must be made to face another Chosen One. I'm voting for Harry Potter, or Buffy the Vampire Slayer myself. After this punishment, we go onto the next punishment!
As a Timetravel!Sue, we let Time itself hurt her. I'm sure Father Time and assortment of other Time Deities would each like to 'Bless' her with their own Gifts, ala Pandora's Box style. I.e.: I Curse you with wrinkles, with aging badly, etc. Upon hitting seven Blessings, we whisk her off to the final punishment!
For being an Angst!Sue, we get our arms and elbows REALLY dirty. I'm sure many of us here would remember Tara? The imfamous Harry Potter Sue who not only angst'd in general, but had 'Blue eyes brimming with limpid tears'? Well, I know Tara is probably still Angsting about Harry ad Draco, ahem, sorry, Vampire and Draco not getting together, so we place this Sue in with Tara and wait until she is Angsted to the death!
Or, if that takes too long, we can throw her in with the Ypurs...
Anywho, that's my idea. But don't make it quick, we must make her suffer. Suffer I say!
Would now be a bad time to say I've never read the book?
