11

13

• Valon absolutely loses it when his favorite League of Legends character is replaced by a torture fiend.

15

• The first (hopefully) annual PPC Pokémon Tournament begins!
• It turns out PPC badfic is still a thing. Rina and the Librarian kill shipped replacements of... themselves?

18

• Gabby and Chakkik get deja vu in their second mission, and set up the biggest cameo in the PPC. (NSFW)

23

25

May

9

• Are you ready for Freddy? Five very unfortunate Floater agents aren't, especially not with animatronic Godzillas roaming around.

18

28

• Agents Falchion and Ripper face off against a very serpentine Harry Potter crackfic in "Snake Eyes".
