The PPC Posting Board - Latest posts

What if Eledhwen somehow escaped to the PPC from the Factory? I mean, if I were yanked from my home and subjected to experiments resulting in an insanely happy, fuzzy-pink-bunny-loving photocopy of myself, I'd seriously want vengeance. Talk about motivation for becoming an agent! And the escape would be an interesting story in itself. Think of the implications: a chance for HQ to find and shut down one of the Factories.

I'm sorry to say this, but as a character, the clone doesn't interest me half so much. The hard truth is that it sounds too much like a Middle-earth bamf!Sue. If you want to write a Tolkien elf, that's cool. If you want to write an insane girl who likes fuzzy pink things, that's cool, too (though most agents would rather mutilate the fuzzy pink things, really). I just don't think the two mix very well.

Keep working on it.

I like your characters already. : ) Nice writing, too; I'm in awe of your description skills. You've managed to pull up clear images with just a few sentences. I still fight with my descriptions on a daily basis.

I also like the plover. It makes me happy.

Would it be appropriate to send nasty images to that address? I think it would be good revenge for sending this engrish speaking, grammatically ignorant bot to a board that treasures good writing and spell check.

Grab a few Andalite Agents, get them to 'acquire' a Sue/Stu. Though, the psychological repercussions might not be fun, and if one of them got stuck... anyway, I know I've read about at least one Andalite Agent.

Also, someone from the Young Wizards continuum might be able to put together a mochteroof - kind of a solid disguise that one "wears", if you're not familiar with the term. Might something like that work?

Well, I'm kinda new here myself, so I have no helpful hints or nifty items to give. I'm pretty good at digging up badfic when I put my mind to it, but somehow I don't think you'd want any.

Forgive my ignorance, but what has Amelia Atwater-Rhodes written? It's entirely possible I've read some of her books and not noted her name.

Also, The Highwayman = win, at least in my books. You've managed to get yourself tagged as a nifty person, congratulations. Here's a pointe shoe. Slightly dead shank-wise, but still hard enough in the box to cause unconsciousness when applied with sufficient force. Enjoy! : )

Thanks. I hadn't heard of Bleepolate, but now my existance is complete! (Well, maybe not quite. I still have to saddle and ride a zebra.)

And I'll keep that in mind. *duct tapes feet to legs* Oh ****, now I can't walk....

*Gives first load of Bleepolate* That's Bleech, Asprin and Chocolate, in case you didn't know. Bleech to forget bad memories, asprin to get rid of the headache of reading bad stories and chocolate because, eh, who needs a reason for chocolate to be there?

Anyways! Welcome to the crazyness that is the PPC! Mind your first few steps, because if you aren't careful, they'll run off on you. I'm still looking for mine.

Uh. Yeah. Greetings, I come in peace. Probably, anyway.

I've been lurking on PPC sites for...a really long time, but the board was, for some odd reason, not one of those websites.

So, I'm Anity, and this is my pet spork Laura, "rescued" from a Taco Bell utensil bin thingy. She is my second one- my original pet spork, Bob, was lost in the recent move and I have yet to find him, alas. He lived on my dresser; Laura lives on my computer desk, and utilizes camouflage to avoid detection. (She's black plastic, she sits on the black base of my monitor.)

Alrighty then. Random Me Facts. I'm an obsessive fan of Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, demonstrated by regular posting on her website's forum and the fact that I'm always reading at least one of her books.

I read constantly, and there are always three or more books in progress. I also write, but not quite so reliably.

I love the rain, and am one of those crazy people who runs around outside at midnight without shoes on.

I can watch moving water or fire forever. This can cause problems, as demonstrated by today's bike ride- I kept getting distracted by the shiny water falls and creeks, then sliding down small cliffs (only a few feet!). Long story short, I've got a lot less blood than when I woke up this morning.

I like reading and memorizing poetry, like The Highwayman, and The Lady of Shalott. I also write poetry, but I can't speak for its quality and I won't pretend to.

I can rant on for quite a while, as seen above. And I'm gonna shut up and wait for comments now.

Here's what I think Lily's origins should be now...
~
"Let go of me, you vile--" screamed Eledhwen Elerossiel as two workers at the Mary Sue Factory #1203 shoved her into a clear tube.
They laughed at her. These dimwitted factory workers did not understand Westron, but the look of sheer hatred on the elleth's face told them the message anyways.
"Labo vi Orodruin," Eledhwen spat as they closed the glass door and started pressing random buttons. Then the bumbling fools stood to the side and cackled appreciatively. They would soon have another Mary Sue bearing the likeness of the foul-mouthed elleth standing in the tube.
Little did they know that they pressed a wrong button. When pressing the buttons for the clone's personality, they had pressed all the personality buttons contradictory to those of Eledhwen's persona. But of course, these were people with an IQ so low they made orcs look smart. They could only look on in surprise as a spitting image of Eledhwen Elerossiel emerged, but this elleth seemed to be more...happy?
The new elleth laughed a rather insane-sounding laugh before exclaiming, "I'm alive! And so are the Fuzzy Pink Bunnies!"
~
Eledhwen Elerossiel is the name of an elleth in my story "Tales of a Nightmare Come True". She hates Mary Sues with a fierce passion ever since the 'Sue in the story "Never Leave Fanfiction Lying Around" (Crazyroninchic's creation, so my story is a spin off of it) had her be a servant to the vile, disgusting, and overall sordid excuse for an original character.

Aside from the DORKS, they can use more mundane methods. Dye their hair some outrageous color. Get colored contacts to change their eye color. Put on copious amounts of make-up and outlandish, impractical clothes. Make up a long, involved, fruity name, and be sure to tell everyone. Most of all, act like the 'Sue type they're emulating. Mostly, it would come down to acting. Even if they went without disguises, they could pull off Goth!Sue (from all the black) or Average!Sue (when they look normal but are still speshul). As July said, it's all in the attitude.

Of course, it's much more fun to dress up.

I'm more inclined to think now that she was cloned at a MS factory, and then sent in as a LotR bit character, and then recruited.

it's always good to start off with the anatomy you know best :P

Who's really not to say that some crazy person from a MS factory infiltrated HQ? Just wondering.
But if that's out of the question, then I think that the MS factory people abducted the Random Elleth and cloned her. Something went wrong with the machine, and there is a personality change in the clone. Said clone gets a new (un-Elvish, of course) name...Lily. The factory then try to send her through a portal, but the bumbling nincompoops that work in this factory bungle up the whole thing and accidentally open a portal to HQ.
Or if that's not that convincing, then maybe they send her in as a bit character and the PPC recruit her because she only had one line or something as minor.

It's fuzzy and cute, except for the horns...which are wicked, by the way.

Jumping in at the deep end with furry porn based on children's books may not be the way to go. Rule Thirty-Four requires practice to do properly.

I want to read it! We both know it can work.

Don't worry, I've got to that stage myself. I just posted a fic about Caspian and Edmund getting locked in a room ... because I said I'd never do it and then someone said 'doo iiiit' and ... I'm hopeless.

*waits eagerly for fic*

Now I kind of have to write that Look-It-Doesn't-Have-To-Be-Eyeburning lemon for you, since you say you like my work ... how have I got myself into a life where I spend my time effectively writing disturbing stuff on dares?

Yours was awesomesauce; I would have left a review only ff.net appears to have locked me out. Srsly. Awesome, and realistic. It makes sense. You made Bluefen a real vermin girl :)

As for the badfic, I read a couple of chapters and had to give up. It's heinous.

My first thought was, "We have an Academy?" But that's what it would be like: Academy in the purest sense of Academia, with no real hands-on training involved. *grin*

Yay for the throne reference. I admire people who have the stomach for writing the nitty-gritty side of life. I'm a wuss that way.

~Neshomeh, who will probably get over it sooner or later.

When the disclaimer reads "I do not own Redwall, Deptford, or any other thing I make up that may be in this fic", emphasis mine, you know it's going to be confusing.

If self-pluggery is okay, I've done a hopefully better-handled fic: <a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4372861/1/VeiledinDeceit">http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4372861/1/Veiledin_Deceit
Should warn you it's rated R. Full warnings inside. Read the notes at the end before reviewing, please.

I wanted to see how you would answer the questions before saying it, Lily, but the cloning thing made me think of the Mary-Sue Factories right away. Trojie said it: it's not really the kind of thing the PPC does. I'd explain her origins another way.

~Neshomeh

That it's not the appearance that makes a Sue.

But the actions.

So arrogance and confidence and probably a touch of makeup would work for a disguise.

And besides, I've found that so long as you /look/ like you know what you're doing and where you're going, people are less likely to interfere. That'd probably hold the same for these infiltrators. *grin*

Definitely want one of those...

...oh wait, I do have one! Might be problematic to squeeze - they don't look very cuddly - but certainly fun to have around. Lovely picture.

Just what I always wanted. ...as long as it's not born pregnant, it's all good.
