  • Lots o' stuff:
    • First, new/ish PPC:TOS chapter, "To Know Where You're Going," an older story finally finished off with a little help from friends.
    • Second, a request for assistance—any Farscape fans out there among the Assassins ready to take on an Uncharted Suvian? We have a letter from a supporter here with notification of badfic incursions there:

      To the Protectors of the Plot Continuum:

      I have long followed your fight against bad fanfiction writing as a silent yet resiliant supporter. However, I must ask that you branch your organization out into the Farscape genre in order to eliminate a particularly dangerous Mary Sue. From what I have managed to gather in the thirty-nine chapter tale is an extreme disruption to both cannon and characterization, along with an extraordinarily sexist attitude toward women in particular romance novel fashion.

      If you have any agents who are willing to take on a Farscape fiction and right the wrongs set forth, I would be greatly appeased.

      You will find the following Mary Sue at this address: http://scorpius-farscape.tv/master/cool_water/likecoolwater.html

      Good luck.

    • Finally, the Buffyverse Chargelist has been assembled with lots of suffering and hard work (in that order) by Agent Rhysdux. (Yes, they're all real. I asked—had to ask.)
