Been forever since I've said that. =]

I have a Ten Years Hence interlude, written mostly during NaNoWriMo. It's roughly 2,600 words, about 7 pages, and stars Jacques Bonnefoy and a badfic rescue (that is, Cai, who at this point will definitely be rescued from Partially Kissed Hero). Basically, a mostly fluffy kidfic kind of thing.

I'm looking for a couple of betas who are really good with wording and maybe characterization as well. The SPaG is probably fine, though if you can take a look at that too, it's always good to have another pair of eyes there.

Anyone interested and available? :)

Thanks for paying attention to what now seems to be his virtual present.

1) Well, not really, I already have enough character ideas for the first version of the game. I just need folks to help me flesh them out.

2. I'll post my most finished Sues for the game into the thread.

-Twistey

Bingle: 'But, when I am through with this competition, they will need to rename it to the "Extremely Well-Fed Games"!'

Finch: 'Bingle-s been trying to teach me how to cook, so, of course, his first bloody idea is to enrol me into a massive cooking competition. Oh, good God. I can-t imagine how this situation could reveal itself to be any worse.'

Anne: 'Finch and Bingle are acting like we're going to be cooking. Everyone else is acting like we're all going to murder each other. I haven't done murdering or cooking in a while. I'm up for either.'

Ninetwo: Events like these are, I believe, incredibly important for building camaraderie among co-workers, boosting, as a whole, productivity and cooperation among an organisation. I believe it is my responsibility to help, in any way, this goal. For the sake of my co-workers, and the PPC as a whole.
Umm. I also miss the brute violence of External Security. A little. Not much. Or, um, a lot. But not much.

(Assuming there's a Monitor representative hiding somewhere, they can feel free to ask questions. But for now, why they're participating.)

Apecian: "Well, for one thing, it gets me out of missions while I'm in it." Grins. "Oh, who am I kidding? I'm in this because it sounds like it'll be a blast! Since nobody's actually getting hurt, I can really cut loose and see how I do in an arena like this!"

Michael: Smiles slightly. "Apecian was rather enthusiastic about entering and asked me to join too, and I thought I might as well."

Animus: "My reasons are my own."

Dilx'Sav'Te'Rin: "Well, I don't know much about what these are, but everybody was really excited about these games, so I thought I might as well sign up! From the way everyone was talking, it sounds like it might be fun."

It takes some getting used to.

All 48 slots have now been filled. Now - to make a few final tweaks to the events list so it's not boring and get to writing the first day!

Septimus: "I haven't had a good hunt in ages. This should be fun."

Alex: "Of course I had to play. A chance to cut loose and have some real fun? And to get my partner stuck in it? How could I refuse?"

Okay, so their names are Evie, Crystal, and Sylvia (my favorite is Evie already), and apparently Evie and Sylvia are twins while Crystal is a year older.
Wait no Evie stands for Evyline. Just... what.
Oh they’re nine and eight. That... slightly improves their personalities for me?
Okay they have a name an lion named Nemo, a winged snake named Acid and a fire-breathing snake named Ashy.
They have wings,
They don’t have phoenix DNA, I lied. But they have fairy DNA, shapeshifter DNA, and 50% “fairy and faerie” DNA, because apparently those are different? Also the DNA... was... injected into them... which just... what Why.
Okay so in addition to having Cute Animal Friends they have sapient dragons named Pythia, Singer and Windwing and I’m pretty sure I intend Singer to be pronounce “Singe-er” because he’s a fire dragon.
Okay so they “bonded” with the dragons and their hair and eye colors changed? Like what.
Evie has heterochromia iridium with purple and black and I don’t think it’s even been one page.and her hair is black. With purple streaks.
Wow bad humor.
Okay so the dragons had a plan to escape but they waited until the Sues arrived to execute it.
I f***ing called them “Dragonspeakers”.
Okay so only tiny lapses in grammar thank god.
Okay so the “Evil Ones”’ general just went “Why must I do everything myself?” and tbh I kind of like him. Also, I just said tbh.
Freaking magic.
Wow they find an extinct species.
Okay I should probably stop.
Let’s rescue the “dimension dragon”. It (gender N/A) can make portals.
Hold on, apparently all humans are “Evil Ones” except for a select few.
Wow their dad just betrayed his whole species for them what is this witchcraftery
They’re suffocating the “leader”as leverage. These are 13-14 year olds. What the heck? I’m going to assume the leader’s the general. Again... can I recruit him?
The dragons... are Sues. The dragons are Sues.
I made the dragons Sues/Stus.
So this is a short story collection and only 7 stories are actually about these guys.
All the characters are either stupid or Sues/Stus.
... how did I fit this into barely more than 15000 words.

You know what? Just in case you need a few extras, I'll toss in my DH character, Animus, and his partner, Dilx'Sav'Te'Rin (who may or may not be in disguise for this). Just in case. :P

2) Sure.
1)... create characters for your game? Sure.
(As it happens, I created a NaNoWriMo in... let’s see... third grade? Fourth grade? I don’t know, but the main characters, three triplets, were Sues. Since the nightmare has been deleted, I don’t remember their names, but I dinstinctly remember DNAs of several different dragons, mythical creatures (ice phoenix, which is kind of a contradiction), and shape shifting abilities, which made absolutely no sense whatsoever. Also... wangst. Like... a lot of wangst. And bad prose, but the grammar was good.)

Among the descriptors I provided of you were that you are very invested in the Shipfest, especially the femslash aspect of it, and therefore part of the reason why I'm looking forward to Willis and I's first Shipfest together! (The other part is that Willis, thanks to the aforementioned incident with the makeup, acquired an interest in drag and will almost definitely be fine with being genderbent in shipfics.)

You're also half of the most well-known canon Boarder couple. So yeah.

(I say "LMBO" standing for "laughing my butt off".)

Please continue overanalyzing my drawing! I love how this is going! X'D

And Iximaz is doing... I don't know what to call that. It's like a finger gun minus one finger. Kind of an "eyyyy I'm cool" type of gesture. I did not intend for Delta Juliette's pose to be interpreted as disco dancing :P Long story short: I should draw more of this! Maybe some joke comics or something.

Now I'm curious, what are your guesses about Willis? I'm sure that they'll be rather humorous.

Right now, I happen to be developing a fighter game with pretty much the exact same premise! (Only difference is that my arena is also run by a Sue, and it's secretly training the Sues to overthrow the "plot cops", or writing critics.)

Which begs the question, do you want to help me create some of the characters? And/or can I take my Sues from said game for a quasi-test run in here?

-Twistey

I swear I'm not trying to steal your job! I swear!

*looks around shiftily, puts on sunglasses*

*clears throat*

Nope, not at all.

"I am simply... intrigued. I see no need to curb my curiosity."

Even by the standards of the PPC!

On C-Fy: there is no fourth wall with C-Fy. Also, she counts her age by how long her character design has existed.

Please post a reply with the Sue name, badfic name, badfic link, Sue personality, and anything else you deem necessary before writing them in.

Also, stay out of the CRs (cringe rooms).

P.S. Question: do you think SPaGhetti could counter the effects of the Anti-SPaG room?
