(K: David? It's a troll.)

(David, seething with anger: I don't care if it's a troll! They're getting my-)

(K: David, please.)

(Paye: Mr. Null?)

(David: Oh hi Paye.)

(Paye: Isn't it bad to feed the trolls?)

(David: ...)

(David: Yeah. They thrive off of shpxing anger. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm taking a very hot shpxing shower.)

(Paye: Don't scald yourself! Please!)

(K: He's not. Last time he said that, he took a mildly warm shower. Most of the time, our sense of temperature is shot.)

...

Hey, this is Paye. Please don't send such messages again, A Troll. Thanks!

((Yeah, most of it is canon, except for K actually knowing vampire stuff. After he was turned, his mentor left, so K knows next to nothing about vampires.))

((Also, please note that David isn't mad at you, Ls, but rather at the troll, if that makes any sense.))

What tips do you have on caring for long hair?

• I am most partial to autumn chestnut flavour, but I tried Shinshū apple flavour once, which I highly recommend.
• As I am from Hokkaido, I would say Seicomart. There is one close to my house as well.
• I have never tried it. I would like to some time.
• 山桜霞の間よりほのかにも見てし人こそ恋しかりけれ (Kokin Wakashū poem 479, Ki no Tsurayuki). I like Ki no Tsurayuki's style in general, and I admire the fact he penned the oldest work of diary literature and had a great impact on Heian period women's literature despite being a man.

((Poem translation: Like catching a glimpse of mountain cherry blossoms amidst fog, I am in love with the one I have caught a fleeting sight of))

Y du u thikn dat spllng iz emprtant? Itx nut, cuz u cn reed wut im sying!!!!111

Also, vrompirez suk. (geddit, suk blud)

((This is facetious. Also, I’m sorry, David. —Ls))

Wait. The PPC has AUs? I knew we were fictional! Take that, stupid author! gets hit on the head with lampshade Ow!

Does it still kill Sues? Because if so, I’m on board.

((This is okay!))

Mina’s worse than my last partner. She ignores me, wanders off on missions, and TRIES TO SAVE SUES. Why? WHY? Doesn’t she know that all Sues must die! Aagh. I’m not dealing well.

((He didn’t really answer the question, but oh well.

—Ls))

I’ve been in the PPC my whole life! It’s fun. Being an agent is fun. I’ve always wanted to be an agent like my parents!

I like wandering around Headquarters and meeting new people. Like you! I’ve heard of new Caledoria, but my parents never go. I think it’s ‘cause they’re overworked. I like my parents’ RC, because it has the people I loooove!

As long as you can get to Medical, you’ll be fine. Probably.

((This is rather more on-topic than Mina is normally.

—Ls))

How do you feel about the "more logical" AU of the PPC, the CPP? Like it? Dislike it? Indifferent?

((I hope this is okay!))

((-kA))

How're you dealing with having a partner who doesn't like killing Sues?

How long have you been at the PPC? Did you always want to be an agent?

What do you do for fun? Do you go to New Caledonia at all? What's your favourite place, in HQ/New Cal/the multiverse?

Uh... Is it going to be risky being your friend, with all the, um, accidents you cause?

Um. Well. Green is my favourite colour, I think? I used to wear green a lot.

I have... pause as she counts, frowns and re-counts Three friends? I don't think Blank counts. Mellon is my friend, and Othoniel is too, and Autumn is... friendly. So three. But I'd like some more! I don't... I don't know how to make friends.

I met the Marquis de Sod when I was recruited. It wasn't a very interesting meeting. It just, you know, looked at me, and decided I was in okay shape to be an agent. But I haven't met any other Flowers, just sort of seen them in passing or heard about them, so I don't think I can have a favourite yet?

Autumn brings me donuts sometimes. I like caramel-y ones, and chocolate ones. And jam ones. They're all really good!

((Aw. That's very cute. =D ))

What’s your favorite color? How many friends do you have? Which Flower’s your favorite? Do you like caramel? What about chocolate?...

((I’ll stop her there before this get too ridiculous.))

What’s your favorite type of explosive?

Ask question to either of my agents:

• Mina: Highly excitable and rather chaotic, she doesn’t like killing Sues or boring partners.

• Carlisle: Usually grumpy and long-winded, he hates Sues and will yell in ALL CAPS when angered.

Uh, no questions on sexuality or whatever.

I reserve the right to not answer questions, and the canonicity will be stated in the reply.

—Ls, whose other agents aren’t fleshed-out enough to put on here.

If you could get away with stealing one (1) uber-Shiny from any continuum (think: Silmarils, the One Ring, the Infinity Stones, etc), which one would it be and why?

Why do you need it deleted? I have an accidental bonus account on this Board too, and I don’t feel the need to delete mine.

—Ls

Agent Blank. Human. A jaded and somewhat cynical Floater who is very skeptical of Sues and even former Sue Agents. Was experimented on during the events of the PPC Musical in '04. Not very social. Married to Autumn (formerly known as Spot) who works in the Department of Intelligence. ((Autumn is social, and may take over answering any questions that Blank doesn't like.))

Agent Moira. Blank's partner. Half Istar, a quarter Elf and quarter human. Sweet but very awkward. Former Sue, was paired with Legolas in the fic she originates from, and is very self-conscious about that fact. Lives with Blank and Autumn for now. The RC is full to capacity, especially since Moira's companion, a crow she named Mellon, was recently turned human. His human self is known as Buddy and has yet to appear very much, but he is also available for questions.

we're in the same class remember??

do you liek chimken nunget? mama got some dinosaur shaped ones!

i haf 2 give this 2 mama so she nd your mama can koardinet it

Constance --

I was not aware of it, but we're okay with Oleander coming by today. Ms Mortimer has assigned another Canon Report and the two of them have apparently paired up to work on Star Wars, so they'll be watching A New Hope together. Does Oleander's squirrelly aspirations extend to the Dawn Treader play structure in our courtyard?

Additionally, are there any dietary restrictions we should know about? Ellie got into an argument with someone the other day over whether or not the Eldar are vegetarian...

I'll send Dafydd home with some of Ellie's latest attempt at jalapeno lembas cornbread.

Best,
Christianne

((I think Ms Mortimer's my character but also I did think Oleander and Muriel would be classmates, so we're all good! And I get the feeling Christianne's usually the one who gets reined in by her Elvish partner, so...))

I'll clime out thwindows after clas &nd sneke to your house ockay?

(Oleander, give me that.)

(Awwwwww Moooooom)

Hi Christianne,

Did you know about this? I'm fine for you to pick Ol up today if you had any involvement in this plan; otherwise I'll ask Mrs. Mortimer to keep the windows locked. Dafydd has A Thing at the Musee this evening, so he can run round and collect him after that.

I should probably mention that Ol has apparently decided he wants to be a squirrel when he grows up, so try to keep him away from trees; he'll be up them like a shot otherwise, and Araucaria are a bit spiky for that.

-Constance

((... who is emailing Christianne out of the perhaps-misguided belief that they have common experience reigning in their Elvish partners.))

((I have a doc on the New Cal schools which establishes Mrs. Mortimer as Oleander's teacher in some way; I have a feeling she might be Lily's character but can't confirm. ~hS))

Going feral would be like... acting less sapient, I suppose? Defaulting to base instinct? Basically, have you ever gone full wrathful fox on someone? And if not, what might tip you that way?

• Favourite KitKat flavour?
• Favourite combini?
• Your thoughts on corn and mayo pizza?

And a question from Liu Siyuan, who also whisks his tea,

• What is your favourite poem?

C: Honestly? The more things change, the more they stay the same.

E: How so?

C: Well, Sues still get assassinated, slash spirits still get exorcised, crossovers still get untangled...

E: There has been a noted increase in recruitment and leaving bit characters to re-assimilate, however.

C: Yeah, there's definitely a fair number of bits we could have spared back in the day. Dr McPhee, Mazzie, Thresh...

E: You still remember their names?

C: Might not be Dr McPhee. That museum person from Alexis's mission. Dr McPherson? Dr MacIntyre?

E: We grew weary of Sue Slaying, as it were. It is interesting that the culture in HQ has changed to lessen the amount of that.

C: Oh, yeah. In 2006 it was very "thou shalt not suffer a Suvian and her lackies to live".

E: To be fair, that was not long after the... Falling Down?

C: Crashing Down. Black Cats and Mary Sue Factories. Then the Mary Sue Factories again in 2008, just before I met you.

E: Mm. The gradual culture change in HQ has not been very noticeable, but I am hardly the one to ask about any sort of short-term change.

C: It has been fourteen years, Ellie.

E: What is fourteen years in the lifespan of an elf?

C: ...Yeah, I'm not going to unpack that. We did spend a good portion of the major shift away from assassinating... being away from assassinating, so it's really hard to tell. Thanks for the question, though.
