Hello! I've also recently introduced myself on the Board. Apparently, when someone introduces themselves people provide gifts.
Here's your gift: A Fresh Loaf of Bananna Bread
See you around!

Hello there!
I am SomeRandomPersonAccount. I chose this username because I want to protect my real life identity from China bots.
I stumbled upon the ppc last year because I had an itch to write a fanfic. So I searched the web on how to write one and ended up at TV tropes. Then I saw citrus scale and I clicked on the link on my 3DS( back then my Father took away my phone. I smuggled my 3DS in my bedroom) and landed in the PPC wiki.
To be honest, I thought the PPC was a community about writing good stories, but I realised that this is also a fandom( which means I had to invest time reading missions).
I read the Mission with 9 sues and I felt a bit disappointed. I thought Jay and Acaia were going to slit their throats and strangle them.
My fandoms are Mario, Skylanders, Pokémon( Sword and Shield are going to suck), Hyperdimension Neptunia( I only watched the anime for the ‘plot’ while my grandfather was dying of cancer) and Spongebob.
Currently I am writing a Neptunia Mission but I don’t have permission yet. Is it ok if I Name my agents Bravo Man and Action Man?
I don’t know, there’s an agent called red( if i’m right),
Also, I am from Singapore, so if the ppc is an American thing then don’t be confused with getting posts at midnight.
Ok thanks bye.

Well, you're not entirely wrong. :P by

Sorry for being mostly silent on the New Cal posts, but Zing and I've basically got the same headcanons and it looks like she's covered the main things we had together.
Agent!Ix is Irish (I mean, Faolan Amaris Saibhir, it doesn't get much more Irish than that. Little Wolf Moon? Pshhh).
But she is also Scottish! Her dad's mum's side of the family can trace their heritage back to Scotland, so you're not totally wrong. She just happens to have grown up in the Republic of Ireland. :P
Getting back to the topic at hand, I do hope you haven't forgotten about the location where Ilraen and Farilan had their first proper date together. I believe it was called Sabor del Mar, which (if I remember right) is a casual Spanish food restaurant.
Ix and Charlotte also had a date in one of their interludes on a hilltop overlooking the PPC New Caledonia city, which was a bit rocky and dotted with hardy trees. Don't know how else to describe it apart from that.
I believe a duck pond has also been mentioned a few times as a frequent spotting site for Agent Monty?

Nah, I realized I goofed about Agent Ix right after I hit Post, naturally. Sorry, Ix!
So, part of what I want to do with this discussion is nudge the city more toward something that would fit well in its location, which is in the mountains on a tropical island. I'll believe the PPC city tries to give Nouméa (the capital) a run for its title of "the Paris of the Pacific," but it doesn't have room to spread out as much, either horizontally (because mountains and also it's hot so you don't want too many things packed in too close together) or vertically (because too high a profile would stick out), so we'll have to start being selective at some point.
That said, there could easily be a vegan/vegetarian/pescatarian place or two run by local Kanak people and specializing in local foods. The Pacific Islands are great for that. {= D

Locations? Uh. by

Well, the pizza place can't be reached by walking straight from the exit from HQ--there's at least one turn. The ice cream place (actually also mentioned in the pizza interlude)...no clue, but it's a comfortable walk from the pizza place (comfortable enough to make for a tradition of eating pizza and then getting ice cream for dessert). I think once or twice in an RP I've had both pizza place and ice cream shop fairly close to La Trattoria (which has great cheesecake and ravioli, by the way), albeit probably not close enough to be seen from there. Just a street or a block or two away. So if we know where La Trattoria is, they could just be placed in the vicinity? Unless Ix has a vastly different headcanon for where the ice cream shop is?
Hmm, Scottish pub. Yeah, New Cal could probably use a pub! Maybe a sports bar (or regular bar) too? Ooh, and a vegan and/or vegetarian place could be good and make sense. That could be more recent, particularly the vegan one--they've been popping up all over the place lately, but used to be rarer. And there are definitely at least a few agents who'd eat there.

PS: werewolf!Ix is Irish, by the by. Not sure who Sanguine is, though, besides aptly named?

Good to know! Any idea where those locations are, in relation to anything else?
You know what there SHOULD be? A Scottish pub. The island is called after the Roman name for Scotland, after all. I've got a couple characters bumming around in the back of my head that I could see running a pub for kicks, too. One's a Scottish werewolf (no relation to Ix or Sanguine; I guess it's just a thing?), the other's an Irish vampire. Their real job is being part of a supernatural SWAT team, but they could use something else to do while I figure that whole thing out. Plus, they're entertaining; or might be if I'd done anything with them yet.
The whole thing would probably be Joe's (the vamp's) idea. Ban's not pretentious enough. He'll just quietly tend the bar and look the part of the big hairy Scotsman while Joe schmoozes with people and smirks over how terribly clever he thinks the name Fuil Fìor Caledonia is.

Two things, mainly.
-in a story that I should finish beta mode for, I added a pizza place. I see no reason why there wouldn't be a pizza place, but there wasn't one listed. I have yet to give it a name, but it's...basically, pretty standard. And sells pizza. This is set around 2027, but I would be pretty surprised to find it hadn't been there for decades (or hadn't replaced one or two that had been there before). It's *pizza*.
-I have some La Trattoria headcanons. Namely that they serve good (if slightly more expensive) food (this headcanon may be contradicted by something in a story I've never seen--there wasn't much detail on the wiki and I'd recently been to an Italian place fitting that description as a treat, so that's what I ended up modeling it on in an RP). My other headcanon is that most of the waiters there (as well as a bunch of other shop owners, etc, in New Cal) kind of know about the PPC and have seen some weird things, because even with non-humans disguising themselves things still slip through.
-I can't remember what store she ran, but I had this RP headcanon of Jacques bring friends with an older woman who ran a particular shop. I'll try to hunt that down.
-Since it doesn't seem to be on the wiki page--in an interlude called "Meeting the Exes", set in late September 2015, Iximaz and I wrote in an ice cream place. No clue if it's been mentioned before, but it's definitely brought up in that interlude. It features multiple flavors and is considered good. It's also been there for at least a few years at that point--probably 5-10 at least. Dawn says "[she's] been [at HQ] for nine years--of course [she's] gone."
And I think that's it for now, beyond having a (so far not really seen) character who works at La Trattoria. If I think of something else, I'll let you know.

Hello! I've read the Constitution and skimmed through the first mission in the Original Series, and the premise of this community is fascinating.
I discovered the PPC through an internet rabbit hole one night, and have been coming back periodically ever since.
I've got a lot of fandoms, but my darlings are Firefly, Newsies, Harry Potter, the MCU, Star Trek (specifically DS9), and others I'm sure I'll remember later.
Aside from writing, I also like to draw, play instruments, and train martial arts.
I'm a guy and my prefferred pronouns are he/him.
Thanks for reading, I hope to meet some of you soon!

I forgot to mention Deepdelver's Tavern and Abbot's Bakery, which are Discworld- and Redwall-based establishments, respectively. Not likely too terribly difficult to cover up, though.
If outside tech/magic is allowed in World One, the whole city could be Unplottable, and/or be contained within a Somebody Else's Problem Field, and/or slightly out of phase, and/or anything else you like, too, in which case anything goes. I just think more subtle hiding in plain sight is more interesting.

Entirely possible that some agents did it for a prank, possibly while drunk. Making somewhat wholesome and seemingly natural phenomena is a good prank.
(I haven't actually watched Doctor Who yet- any recommendations for where to start?)
