Anyway, Jane said: Would you like some cloth-and-plastic roses to commemorate the fallen? They're free, even the black and Anti-Lustin ones. We also have other cloth-and-plastic flowers, if you'd like...

They're free,

It should be 'He told himself to enjoy it while he can', rather than 'He told himself to enjoy himself while he can'. Especially as he is within the sight of curious Agents...

Agents began coming in large numbers, ready to commemorate their desceased friends and companions. Since he was the one who suggested that his store should be the site for said commemeoration, it was not unexpected. He made himself ready to welcome them.

Sorry! Anyway...

Being Genre Savvy, he didn't inquire about the cause of this fortunate turn of events. Best not to catch the Ironic Overpower's attention, he tought. He told himself to enjoy himself while he can, because like all things, it woudn't last for long. He began to wash the counter, humming to himself as he did so.

Leto Haven, owner of the PPC General Store;was having an unanticipated good day. The flow of Agents was more tranquil (if it can be called that) than it had been in recent years. He had also managed to scrape out more time for his beloved wife and children.

As long as they were many people at one place, Krisprolls was happy. Now, Krisprolls was very happy. He approached the very large crowd near the store. "Hey, people! What are you here for?"
Some guy in the store explained to him they were here to commemorate the first birthday of the Mary Sue Invasion.
"Oh, I heard about that. Wish I was there. So many Sues to kill." Krisp was getting excited at the idea.
"Krisp, why do you always have to be so direct with people, this is just beyond me."
"You're aging too fast, What'. You're turning Vulcan."
"Vulcan? Stop that, or I'll call you Bono in front of everybody here."
"Do that, and you're a very dead man."
"Bono!"
"South, is it just me, or you already lost your brains?"
"What brains? None of us has brains, you know that, Whatev. Especially me."
"Krisp..." What' was glaring at him. Yes, he was turning Vulcan.
They spent the next three minutes bantering when the guy in the store interrupted.
"Oh, I see you're this Infernal Trio I keep hearing about. Welcome to the PPC. I'm Leto. This is Jane. And these are the minis. Don't mind the madness here. Well, I guess it matches your own."
"Thanks. Hello, there!"
"We're already famous? Krisp? Care to explain?"
"There ain't nothing to explain, What. Just usual Krisp stuff."
What' was Not Amused. Leto wasn't either.

Welcome to all that wish ot remember our fallen comrades. They would want us to remember them with joy, instead of sorrow. Heres a glass of *beverage of choice* to them. Now, lets party!<br><br>*note* Leto and his wife Jane are open to anyone who want to use them (the owners of the store). Leto is an average modern day human for Canada and Jane is a Dragon from the Rifts universe. Jane can be whatever form she wants to be, she also has a tremendus amount of magical energy.<br><br>The staff of the store are minis from the various contunuii. Head of Staff is Smeagul the mini-balrog. He likes shiny things.<br><br>I will be posting under the name of Milask for the rest of this thread. So whatever you do with Leto and Jane is canon. Their children (the triplets) are off limits. Anything else goes. (Please, dont make Jane want to devorse Leto!!!)

One, when shall we play the hot DORKS game?


two: did the gender bending affect the flowers too?

musical agents, or is it more hot D.O.R.K.S. ?

who throws it on to someone else, who discards it when they get bored with it and someone else picks it up and passes it to someone else ad infinitum?

Sounds good to me.

I think Lux is being unfairly abused, though. She isn't the only agent crazy enough to mess around with a random DORKS.

If we wanted to descend into the truly ridiculous, we could have the thing handed off multiple times:

"Oh, that? Yeah, I had it, but after I poked it a few times and it didn't do what I wanted, I threw it at a random passer-by for laughs. Dunno where it is now."

"DORKS? Yeah, some jerk threw it at me. Didn't seem to work, so I dropped it in the Fountain of Bleepka."

"I thought I saw a really nice sword in the Fountain of Bleepka, but when I picked it up, it was just a DORKS. So I left it in the cafeteria."

Et cetera, et cetera.

It's always plotholes when Sue-stuff gets involved.

I thought there might have been some interaction between the DORKS and the contaminated portal device, too, since they were both contaminated at the same source. Like I said, if someone tried hooking the portal device up to the main network, that's an easy connection between it and the portals/plotholes HQ is made of. Once the entire portal/plothole network of HQ is exposed, everyone is exposed.

That way, we still need the DORKS to fix it--it's just that we also need the DORKS to talk to the portal to talk to the network. Does that make sense?

~Neshomeh

also making it up.

okay, narrative comedy it is. that works.

Given that C&D had no PPC technology with them (although apparently they did have a portal generator of some sort, unless the door they came in through is local), introducing the flashpatch as a source wouldn't solve any problems, and would just mean we were chasing the wrong bit of tech for the entire story. So it's easier to keep it as the DORKS and just assume it's Narrative Comedy at work.

hS

He would. in an interlude, Drake does seem to know Lux. Mainyl that he doesn't get what she wants him to do.

DRake woudl do that. He is clueless and naive.

and as for the flashpatch thing, was just trying to think of various ways or theories for it to be spread. but it is the dorks, i guess. although why it did it, and effected all agents past and present, i have no clue. Sure that hS has a good reason though.

Could it be possible that Drake, realising that she was going to get caught, threw it at the first non-Ansela Agent she saw, who happened to be Lux.

Kitsune, would this be plausible for Drake to do, or not?

So, conclusions so far:

-We need to edit it a bit to indicate that C&D came in from Outside.
-We need to extend the fox-hunt before Ansela catches Drake.
-We need to sort out the Lux thing. This is a conclusion I've just invented, but it makes sense. As it stands, what happens is: Ansela claims Drake was waving the DORKS, Drake claims she gave it to Lux, and then reveals that's a lie. But Ansela would've known it was a lie, and Drake doesn't seem to have any reason to say she did and then revoke it (except that Kit felt like he'd driven me out of the thread or somesuch, which wasn't true :P). So that could do with making more sense.

I think we can agree that the genderbending is because of the DORKS... or can we? Kit keeps suggesting it's something to do with Drake's flashpatch, while it could also be the portal device MT rescued from the 'fic... but it's probably the DORKS. So the plot needs to centre around who has the blessed thing.

Hmm. How about (just a suggestion, now) we turn Drake's lie into the truth. Ansela never saw the DORKS, and Drake /did/ give it to Lux (or at least to someone). Then we can have a severely picked-on Drake forced to go along and try to help retrieve it, all while (if it is Lux) the genderbending takes on new quirks as Lux fiddles with the DORKS. Since you /know/ she'd do /something/, and don't I remember her fiddling with technology sometime during TOS?

... bother. You know /he'd/ do something, etc. Genderbent.

Okay, I don't know.

hS

sounds good.

sorry, was just asking questions.

I don't mind placing Nume and Ilraen in the corridor by an exterior door, but then there should probably be some notice taken of the Outside.

~Neshomeh

First of all, no one's gone through a portal this time around. Second of all, no. More random plot devices =/= better story. What we have already is fine. Let's work with it.

~Neshomeh

not yet. could jstu take a whiel for the tech to recharge to send otu teh next pulse?

I don't think my normally female Agents would be very pleased about suddenly having harem girl outfits barely covering their new male bodies. Hell, they wouldn't be pleased about that even if they were still female. You want Drake skinned alive by a pissed off thief? I know, it wouldn't happen, but that's what he would threaten to do. He's already tried to shoot Drake, remember.

Besides, I wrote them having to change outfits because their usual ones were too small. And no one else has changed into harem girl outfits either.

how do we continue from here? maybe drake's flashpatch migth cahnge others into a harem girl style outfit?that is waht teh portal did to him when he went through it.

Risa stayed in the RC. He won't leave unless a mission comes in and he needs to track down Ansela.

hS, I noticed a spelling mistake in one of my parts. The 'breath' towards the end of the penultimate paragraph of the first part should be 'breathe'.
