Seeing as how we have had a slight deficiency in Defenders in the group, and that Radiation/Radiation Defenders are now a mandatory element of any Giant Monster or even many AV takedowns, I decided to make one. I don't know when I'm going to find the time to level her up between playing Lora'Lai on Virtue and Stalnoy Volk over on Infinity, but I'll do my best.
I'd like to have her join up ASAP. So let me know when's a good time.
Oh yes... her name is a pun. I'm interested in seeing how many of the science inclined will get it. ^_^

  Fictionality...
Posted by: Bluemage - 08-26-2006, 05:17 AM - Forum: General DW Chatter - Replies (3)

Doug only learns that he's been visiting fictional universes in DWX, if I remember correctly, which is why the concept of him meeting Bugs Bunny tends to keep getting shelved/killed/forgotten. After all, he knows that the LT-verse is fiction, and him living it would ruin the plot.
Even though transfictionality is taboo until then, what's to prevent transdimensional fictionality? In English,
Why isn't Doug looking for more Looney Tunes?
DWII- set in the 2030s. Surely Warner Bros. wouldn't let a series that important stay idle for another three or four decades?
Besides, *our* universe has seen the occasional LT release since the Year Of The Walk...Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines...

Min might have goofed by telling Yukiyo to explore the photocopier. Sorry about that.

"Harry Potter and The Unlikely Gryffindor" by "Hera Malfoy"
I stumbled on this by accident last night over at "Sink Into Your Eyes", a "Harry Potter" fanfic site. It had a five-star rating and was in their top-25 listing so I grabbed the whole thing in a lump and saved it to read later.
Well, I read it later, and dear gods I wish I hadn't. I stopped after about two and a half chapters, and that was entirely too late. Quick capsule summary: Draco has female cousin, a couple years or so older than he is, who was taken from her parents by the Ministry of Magic's equivalent of Child Protective Services and put into fosterage during the first Voldemort war; the foster parents are killed and she disappears only to turn up in Texas (of all places) when she's 19, at which point she then goes to Hogwart's as a first year and gets sorted into Gryffindor. She's a goth except she's kept the Malfoy hair, has her own motorcycle, a thick Texas accent, and lots of kewl wicca-themed jewelry. Oh, and she's engaged to marry Draco Malfoy by virtue of a long-ago agreement between their parents. By purest coincidence, she has exactly the same name as the author, and already the beginnings of the Harry-attraction are starting.
You can see where this is headed.
It is also one of the most incompetently-written stories I've seen in a while. Well, that's not entirely fair. "Hera Malfoy" is mostly a fair writer -- no horrendous misspellings or grammatical gaffes -- but she's careless and overconfident as a writer. Every once in a while she'll come out with something like this:

Quote:
There rising up out of the darkness, was a castle Hera had only thought could exist in fairy tales. There were huge walls made of stone cinder blocks, spinnerets climbing into the sky, and the windows were each burning with torch light.
Cinderblocks? Spinnerets? Bwah? I have found the example I will be using in the "Vocabulary" section of my Fic Writer's Guide...
Anyway, I found this thing to be so spectacularly bad that I just had to share it. And I am seriously considering registering at SIYE just so I can go into the comments for this story and repeatedly post "Are you people nuts?"

If they carry out her sentence I beleive it will be the third such stoning reported this year.

/QUOTE
Article 104 of the Iranian Penal Code states that the stones used for execution should "not be large enough to kill the person by one or two strikes, nor should they be so small that they could not be defined as stones."
