*creeps in* Wow, this almost like the first time my choir director made me sing solo. First time venturing out of Clairvoyant, so please be merciful.
As some of you may or may not know, LJ's Mary Sues comm was friend's locked for a very long time due to rampant trolling and probably some other stuff that happened before my time. Things have been slow since the Great Unflocking, aside from the infamous and not particularly work safe MSCOMMSTUCKS, so I suppose it's only to be expected that they felt the need to join in with FFRants and BRPS this week.
The tale begins when mistsofhorizon (whose account is flocked) posts a Silent Hill Sue (Stu, if you're picky). There follows the usual "not my fandom!" platitudes and general agreement. Mists seems oddly focused on whether or not people agree or not (and I distinctly recall her actually asking if someone read the fic or just the snippets, but it seems to have vanished along with another post or two), but no one cares as fiesty_red jumps in to wank all over "not my fandom" girl, himitsuwalkyrja. Suspiciously enough, she, too, wants to know if anyone actually read the story.
Enter the author in question maiafay, who grumbles a bit, but seems fairly harmless to me. Still, Fiesty is being rather wanky and we all know that featured authors can't leave well enough alone (except for the ones who actually can), so your friendly neighborhood Ghost Master posted it to Clairvoyant. The Silent Hill Sues comm linked to the OP as well, later editing to link to the CW post. By this time, grumblings were getting a bit louder.
maiafay posted a profile of her sue in OC_Analysis in the hopes that someone would tell her that he wasn't a sue. Sadly, no one did. The post was quickly deleted, but
redcoast gave us a few highlights and a very nice mousey saved the whole thing for posterity.
Farla weighs in with her two cents, gets into it with Fiesty, and turns it all into a nice little circle jerk among her, maiafay, and heretofore unknown bonzai_bowie. Silent Hill Sues, meanwhile, has gotten off lightly with maiafay running around apologizing to everyone. Mentions are made of a mysterious "post" wherein she apologizes pretensiouslypublically. While said post does, in fact, exist, it has long since been flocked. Fortunately,
mofoslotmachine got the caps for us.
Don't go yet; we still have the cherries jubilee to finish. It was all just a social experiment! No really! maiafay created Mists to post her own sue on MScomm to validate her existence prove that people are sheep find out if ...I don't even know. Consensus seems to agree that she just wants attention. She says she doesn't really care. I wonder if she only keeps posting because they amuse her.
And that's not even mentioning all the stuff I probably forgot to mention or that happened while I was writing this. I was almost in this wank! Thank Brightness for LJ's server maintenance.
ETA: And, the MScomm entry is deleted. Are we surprised?
We are saved! Saved, I tell you, by the great and wonderful
nlb_muffin for capping the MScompost. ...I mean comm post. Yeah.
