@ralfmaximus, @pickle-plum: your motivational words make the 200km seem just that much shorter; thank youuu!!! This is possibly a liiiittle bit early for the homestretch .. there's a play on 'stretch' and how 200km feels insurmountable at this point but I'm not quite sure what it is. In any event, thank you very much!

Wei Liu for the OC thing!

Full Name: Wei Tang LiuGender and Sexuality: depends on the day Pronouns: also depends on the dayEthnicity/Species: Most certainly a human of East Asian descent and definitely not a changelingBirthplace and Birthdate: 1988 at a hospital in mainland China, near the Tang clan compoundGuilty Pleasures: sleep. lots of sleep. Phobias: family dying due to something preventable What They Would Be Famous For: taking over the world What They Would Get Arrested For: Wei wouldn't get arrested for jaywalking, or driving under the influence or without a license. Everything else ... not so much.  OC You Ship Them With: Ms WeiOC Most Likely To Murder Them: Probably Tang MinFavorite Movie/Book Genre: historical and science fictionLeast Favorite Movie/Book Cliche: ironically, shapeshifting (no one /ever does it well)Talents and/or Powers: Omniscient, shapeshifting Why Someone Might Love Them: possibly the best ally to ever ally Why Someone Might Hate Them: crossing Wei is akin to a death sentence, has an idea of what is ‘best’ for people and pulls strings to make that happen whether the person likes it or notHow They Change: Wei becomes obsessively protective Why You Love Them: Of all my OCs/borrowed paracanon characters, Wei has the least constraints (societal, legal, with regards to work (the boss and Wei's goals are aligned and the boss rarely intervenes so Wei basically answers to no one)) and is ruthless in their application of their version of ‘right’ which makes writing scenes wherein Liu makes a move really fun just for how many narrative(?) rules I can break.

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★!

Saw that coming! XD

The first ten: 

Florence “Ren” Nyoko Ginningham is named for her grandmothers, Florence and Nyoko. She’s half British, half Japanese. 

She has a brother named for their grandfathers. 

Blue is an international student from India; her real name is quite long and its length is a reflection of her Brahmin background so she introduces herself as ‘Blue’ so people don’t shorten her real name or give her a nickname. 

Mr Xiong bought Chief Sergeant Class 2 Xiong a pair of super-awesome high powered binoculars. The Chief Sergeant then used said binoculars to observe the under-construction Shatterdome from atop a Disneyland hotel. 

Setsuko and Mimmi try to out kink each other. (Mimmi’s winning.)

Chuck Darling got an annotated, untranslated copy of “Romance of the Three Kingdoms” in 2015 and has read it over fifty times by 2025.

She fell in love with the very fluffy pillow she used at a fancy so Wei Liu procured two of them for her. She still has one in her possession and guards it with her life. 

By the time Fei Yen turned one, she had spat up on all the members of her extended family, Nang, most of LOCCENT, most of the then-Rangers (notably Rangers Sevier, Pentecost, and Kaidanovskaya), two Horizon Braves, Hannibal Chau, Yeung Tang Min, Max, Cadets Wei Cheung, Jin, and Hu, Mako Mori, and half a dozen cats. 

Tang Min once nearly shot someone’s eye out with a spoon. To this day, no one’s quite sure how it happen. 

Nguyen used to worry about Chantell’s habit of passing out in his room, but then he got a second comforter and felt better about it.

Sydney Shatterdome (Part One)

Notice to Staff (and @pickle-plum)

Please refrain from selling Jaeger tours to the space debris graveyard. Triton Tasmania is a weapon of war with submarine-like characteristics, not a submarine with weapon-like characteristics and thus lacks the means or capacity for passengers. Do not attempt to carry them anyway. 

Respectfully, Thomas Nguyen, Marshal of Sydney

That wonderful feel when one short ficlet cements a bunch of story strings and a big chunk of plot suddenly comes together.

Pan-Pacific Defense Corps (Part Six)

Notice to Staff: 

Shatterdome-mandated safety procedures must be followed at all times, regardless of whether there happens to be a limited-edition Legendary Pokemon on the roof. 

Best regards,  Xiong Li-hua, Marshal of Hong Kong

(Watch “PPDC Part Six” for updates)

Pietr Vos is your creation?

Nay, his home base is with pickle-plum but he has a camp in my head. On this particular occasion, between the pickleplum and I, I’m near a device capable of tumblring XD

Thank you!
