Hello, Percy fans.

*Icarus listens to loud resounding echo.*

Hmm.

Okay. Now that I have no one's attention.

Back in 2004 people really loved the Percy Fic-A-Thon. It was such great fun to torment molest shock play with our favorite prude. Folks said, "Hey, Icarus, let's do it again!"

The trouble was, I sucked as a mod.

Oh, I could pimp mightily and line up story requestors and requestees with untold care. But *cough* when it came to the deadlines and lining up back-up authors and the den-mother stuff tboy had always done so well in the SSFQF, well...

I had all diplomatic patience of Severus Snape ("What do you mean they can't be bothered to write their stories? They said they would!"), the careful follow-through of Prefect Ron Weasley ("Oh, bloody hell. It's not like it matters much. You. Er. Stop that. Good enough, right?"), coupled with the level-headed calm of Hermione Granger ("Eiiiii! The deadline's today andfifteenpeoplehaven'tsentintheirstories and I have five excuses and thisperson's notgettingbacktome and--!").

The fact that we got 50-some odd Percy fics out of it was due only to the hard work of the authors themselves.

Well, believe it or not, we are doing it again: percy_ficathon

Fortunately for you, floweringjudas is the mod, not me. I will do what I do best and remain strictly ornamental, pimping away. Because we do want to pimp Percy, now don't we?

He would be absolutely horrified. But that's why we love him.
