Let's spork some horrible Fanfiction!

I found some fics too...

Bees, flower

Mices, cheese

Attorneys
Zombies?

Sure why not.

I've been trying for a while, but I still have no idea what sporking is

There are peculiar posts on this forum that look amusing, yet baffle me.

Long story short, we find fanfiction things that we feel deserve to be poked at with sporks, but since we can't actually poke them with sporks, we instead make fun of them by getting into character and having these characters make rhetorical jabs at the piece. And it's all done in good fun; no disrespect intended toward the original authors.

As for the zombies thing, clearly, it's because one, the main characters are sexy, and two, there are dead people who come back to life in this series anyway. It doesn't make sense either way, but hey, zombies show up anywhere these days.

And, uh, was gonna try sporking FE/PW crossover where Frederick gets sued, but don't know where to start.

Are you bringing in crossover sporkers?

Bramimond · Post by **Bramimond** » Wed Sep 16, 2015 1:16 am

Yeah. Phoenix will be in, and possibly Maya. From FE, I wanna bring in Chrom, Frederick, and Fem!Robin. Maybe have Anna on speakers and Old Hubba make a short appearance. I've teased this idea...

Chrom: Okay...where in the Outrealms are we?
Old Hubba: I am so glad you asked! This is what is known as the Sporking Theater. A place where all sorts of acts incomprehensible to the human mind take place here.
Maya (aside): Psst, Nick? Who's the creepy old guy talking to those strangely dressed people?
Phoenix: Keep it down, Maya. But I'm guessing they're the next victims for tonight's sporking. And...this is just a hunch, but it's probably going to be a crossover fic.
Robin: Incomprehensible? We'll see about that.
Frederick: And will we get a pension this time?
Old Hubba: Your pension will be...returning. Have fun!
Chrom: I don't like the sound of that...

Rubia Ryu the Royal · Post by **Rubia Ryu the Royal** » Wed Sep 16, 2015 2:10 am

Well, considering how I've taken such a long hiatus on mine that even I don't know where I last left off, someone might just come out with something before I do.

...Okay, so that's no excuse. I'll try to get it in sometime, but thinking it over again, I don't wanna go the full 55 chapters. The first two are so boring that I've actually struggled to keep it interesting long enough. Well, I could just skip to the third chapter, but that means rewriting (almost) everything from scratch...

Too hot. Hot damn! Call the police and the fireman. Too hot. Hot damn! Make a dragon wanna retire, man.

Goodness, Bram. This line without context ends up having so many contexts... including this series.

AireyVerkhovensky · Post by **AireyVerkhovensky** » Wed Sep 16, 2015 2:15 am

We could do another "different sporkers do different chapters" thing. Or would that get too confusing with Turnabout Storm?

Maybe I'll just go make cheap Wrightworth jokes... *wanders off to go look through badfic bookmarks again*

Rubia Ryu the Royal · Post by **Rubia Ryu the Royal** » Wed Sep 16, 2015 2:24 am

No, I don't think it'll be confused with Turnabout Storm, but how would we (including anyone else who wants to join) split up these chapters? Actually, since the first two chapters don't have anything to do with the rest of the crackfest, maybe I can just skip over a great deal of them.

I guess it's time to rewrite stuff...

AireyVerkhovensky · Post by **AireyVerkhovensky** » Wed Sep 16, 2015 2:29 am

Can't help you here 'cuz my personal spork style is "cut as little as possible". ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I guess you could do the first two or three or even if you like, then put chapter the rest of the chapters up for 'adoption' and just claim your favs... have you read the full fic? (I don't do that sometimes, so no judging if you're blind sporking. Sometimes those are more fun.)

Rubia Ryu the Royal · Post by **Rubia Ryu the Royal** » Wed Sep 16, 2015 2:38 am

It's fine. I'll experiment with it and let you guys know how it turns out. I do usually preview those works before I spork them to get a general idea of how they're like, but I don't read to the end, so it's mostly blind sporking. I come up with my best responses that way.

cuteyounggirlplus · Post by **cuteyounggirlplus** » Wed Sep 16, 2015 10:35 am

I haven't got any work done on Turnabout Storm due to schoolwork. In unrelated news, I have a professor named Black***** and I keep wanting to call them "Blackquill".

Also, I wouldn't skip over the second chapter.

Spoiler:

What fic are you guys talking about?

Rubia Ryu the Royal · Post by **Rubia Ryu the Royal** » Wed Sep 16, 2015 7:49 pm

The fic that I'm supposedly working on: The Hellspawn. Emphasis on "supposedly" anyway; this is why one should never pile on translation projects...

When I said "skip", though, it's not really skipping over everything. I take highlights of the first two chapters and work from there. There are still some bits I'd like to poke at from each of them. I just won't, say, go paragraph by paragraph because it's too annoying to get through all that and expect to get through a good chunk of this fic later.

Drat... and here I was hoping I could install a new security measure sooner.

shippersdreamer · Post by **shippersdreamer** » Sat Sep 19, 2015 7:52 am

Would anyone have any fics that are currently unsporked for a returning member like me to take a chance at? I've been busy slaving away with College and it's high time with AA6 coming out I start re-connecting with the community, and what better way to start than with awful AA fanfics right?

I just noticed it's based off of the Walking Dead game. (Yes, I forgot to read the start where he mentioned that...)

Well I mean, so far it looks like it almost completely follows The Walking Dead's plot, so you won't need to...as long as your fine with spoilers for it if you plan on getting the game.

I agree...but although we never see or hear Clay other than that one little flashback, I don't think he'd call himself "Uncle Clay" ...I mean, you don't steal someones name, that ain't cool. For example, if there were someone called Oliver I'd kill them...it is a rare name, you know.

Spork Revival! Time for a new spork turnabout! This time: Emergency Turnabout

This deserves

Two sawhits. This certainly isn't the worst thing out there, but it's not quite bad enough for a 3.

With this out of the way, let's introduce our sporkers for today's revival.

Phoenix Wright!
"Oh great..back again.."

And special guest:

Dr. Derek Stiles!
"A pleasure to meet you all."

SPORKING START!

[The place seems different, more like a matinee theater than what the sporkers are used too. A figure walks through the doors, skeptical.]

Phoenix: This is different to what I'm used too.

???: Ah, good you're here Mr. Wright. I was hoping I wouldn't have to resort to brute force.

Phoenix: Eh? Who are you? I certainly don't recognize your voice, what happened to management?

Proxy: Due to a recent...incident, the usual management has been distracted, but you can just call me Proxy. I'll be proctoring these sporkings when the management is unavailable. Now please enter the theater.

Phoenix: (Odd...oh well. Might as well get it over with.) *Enters the theater, where Derek is waiting*

Derek: Oh! Hello there, you must be my partner for this. A pleasure to meet you, I'm Dr. Derek Stiles.

Phoenix: I'm Phoenix Wright, attorney at law. Let's get to work shall we doctor?

Emergency Turnabout

Phoenix: This is looking promising already.

Derek: Is it? I wonder what the title means.

[-February 9, 3:43 AM. Hotti Clinic, Intensive Care Unit.-]

Phoenix was up, reading through the old cases of Mia. Dahlia Hawthorne..He knew this name was going to come back to haunt him. He sighed. With Derek giving him the wrong folder, he had to learn as much as possible and recovers as soon as he could.

Phoenix: That's not very nice of you to give me the wrong file.

Derek: H-Hey! I don't even know what the fic is talking about! Besides, you need to "recovers" as soon as you could remember?

[-February 9, Caduceus's emergency waiting room.-]

"Dr. Stiles! What are you doing here? You're not working today, isn't that right? "

"Hi Leslie! I know! But I need to talk to someone! I'll see you later!"

Derek rushed through the hallway into Phoenix's room.

Derek: Well that's not very professional of me.

Phoenix: If you're my doctor, shouldn't you already know I'm not at the hospital?

[-February 9, 2:25 PM. Room 4211.-]

"P-Phoenix! Its.. *Puff*not too late..! *Puff* I have the right document..!"

A female voice answered him. "Ummm..Thanks! But..Im not Phoenix..my name is Kaya Kujo."

Derek looked up, only seeing a blonde girl dressed in a hospital gown lying in bed. At her side was Dr. Clark. Derek felt himself blush till the tip of his ears.

Phoenix: Wow, that's pretty impressive to mistake me for someone like that.

Derek: I-it happens. People move hospital beds and what-not. I'm more curious about what this file contains.

Phoenix: I don't think we'll be finding out anytime soon.

"Ah..! I'm sorry Miss Kujo! I thought you were someone else..!"

" Haha,it's okay! *cough, cough* Sorry.. I'm a bit sick.. *cough* But you might want to talk to Dr. Clarks here.."

"Right. Um.. " He bowed down. "Dr I'm TERRIBLY sorry!"

"Derek, get up. It's fine, really.. But tell me, why did you barge in here?"

"I..was looking for Phoenix, actually. Did he get transferred into another room..?"

Derek: I've never me a Dr I'm TERRIBLY sorry before.

Phoenix: Although it seems that Dr. Clarks has replaced Dr. Clark.

" He actually got transferred earlier this morning to another clinic.."

" Whaaat? Which one?"

"I don't know, sorry Derek.."

Derek: That shouldn't be too hard to find, especially if I'm supposed to be your doctor. In fact I'm pretty sure I would have to approve of the transferal.

" *sigh* Okay..I'll be in my office in you need me.."

Derek really needed some time alone. After what happened, he really did.

Phoenix: Wow, with how this is sounding you'd think someone died on the operating table instead of giving me the wrong folder.

Derek: *shudders* I hope I never have to experience that, but I don't see what the big deal is, it's just a folder.

[-February 9, 2:30 Stile' office.-]

Great. Not only he gave Phoenix the wrong document, he now couldn't fix his error because Phoenix was in some other hospital. Just great.

Derek: What is in this file that's so important?

Phoenix: Maybe it's lupus?

Derek: Oh, if that's the case then you shouldn't have been transferred.

Phoenix: (Looks like the good doctor can't take a joke..)

"Now, now Dr. Stiles! It's not like you to be so depressed!"

He looked up. Angie was looking at him, frowning. He didn't even hear her enter.

"Angie..Why are you here? Did you know about.."

"Phoenix? Yes, Leslie told me. Dr. Clarks told me you were in your office."

Derek: Oh! Thank goodness Angie's here.

Phoenix: Er...who?

Derek: She's my assistant, she helps me with all sorts of problems, and assists me when I do surgery.

Phoenix: She sounds like a nice girl (Reminds me of Maya...)

"What is it..? Is something wrong?"

"No, but I thought..you might wanted to know that Phoenix was at Hotti Clinic, in the intensive care unit."

He got up and said, "What? Really? Thanks Angie!"

Derek: How did Angie figure out where you were so quickly? I thought you were just transferred this morning!

Phoenix: Maybe she was the one who scheduled the transfer?

Derek: That still doesn't explain why you're still in the ICU.

She smiled. "Anything to help Dr. Stiles!"

He took his coat and the file.

"Now, I've got to get to that clinic to give Phoenix the file!"

Angie firmly said,"I'm coming too."

He turned around. "What?*sigh* I guess there's no arguing with you, c'mon!"

Phoenix: Ouch, is that any way to talk to your assistant?

Derek: W-WHAT!? No! No I'd never talk to Angie like that! She's always welcome to come with me, and if she's not I'll give a valid reason!

[-February 9, 2: 48 PM. Hotti Clinic, Intensive Care Unit.-]

Derek and Angie made their way to the reception area. This clinic was a lot bigger than they expected but there wasnt a lot of patients.

Phoenix: That's not a big surprise to me.

"Hello, how may I help you?"

A blonde haired women in her 20's greeted them.

Derek quickly answered, "Oh Hello.."

Derek: Well this is going smoothly.

Phoenix: Shouldn't you introduce yourself to the receptionist?

He read the name on the tag of the women's blouse, "Miss Nariko..?"

She smiled at him, "That's me! So, how can I help a handsome young man like you?"

He blushed and said,"Ahem.. well.. um..A experienced women like yourself should be able to help me.."

Derek: Here I was hoping fic!me would have a little more professionalism if the document is so important.

Phoenix: Although this does feel like something that might happen to you at that clinic.

She blushed and giggled, "Oh my! What a flirt you are! And we've only just met!"

Having just realized what he said, he quickly said, " Oh! No, no! That's not what I meant..! I actually also have experience..But that's not what's important here..I'm actually looking for-"

She winked at him and said, "You probably do have experience..Are you looking for someone who also does?"

Derek: Oohhh dear. Angie's right there isn't she?

Phoenix: And I thought the only pervert there was that quack director..

Derek felt himself blush even more.

"No, no! That's not what I was about to say! You see I'm also a doctor and I ne-"

"Tehehe~ a doctor eh?"

She leaned in closer to him, showing off her cleavage.

Derek: This is getting me nowhere, I really need to learn to be more assertive.

Derek's face turned another shade of red, "M-Miss Nariko..? I *gulp* ..I think you are misunderstanding what I meant by expe-"

Angie cleared her throat and shot a glare at Derek. She pushed him aside and sighed. Derek was sometime so..UGH!

Phoenix: Is...Angie jealous of you?

Derek: I don't see why she would be, it's not like we're together.

The blonde girl frowned and said , " Hey! What gives! And who are you?"

Angie put on a fake smile, pointed to Derek and said in a sweet voice, "This man's fiancé."

As Derek was drinking water when Angie mentioned the whole "fiancé" thing, he choked.

Derek: *Does a similar choking sound*

Phoenix: You were saying doctor?

Surprised, Miss Nariko pulled her blouse higher and said, " Hmpf! You are his fiancé? *scoff*"

This time, Angie wanted to jump on that desk and punch that blonde bimbo, but as a controlled person she was, she obviously didn't.

Derek: Oh trust me, that wouldn't stop Angie from chewing her out.

Phoenix: I can't help but feel bad for the receptionist..and it's gone.

Instead, she said in a voice so cold, she could have just froze the entire place, "Could you tell us in what room Mr. Phoenix Wright is staying?"

"…"

The blonde secretary let out a big overly exaggerated sigh and checked on her computer reluctantly.

She smirked at Angie and said in a fake sad voice, " Oh, that's too bad. It seems that Mr. Wright was released 30 minutes ago. Awn."

Derek: Awn?

Phoenix: But..I-I'm still in the hospital. Did this woman just give you false information?

Derek: Well if she really values her job I hope not, especially if that folder I was supposed to give you is so important.

Angie pulled Derek away, toward the exit.

"W-whoa! Angie..! Slow down!"

Derek: And she's mad at me...as usual..

Phoenix: (Another parallel...)

She suddenly stopped in the middle of the parking lot.

"..Angie?"

"…"

" H-hey.. Angie? Earth to Angie..?"

She turned around, facing him.

Oh she was mad.

Derek: Well I could've told you that already.

Phoenix: Incoming slap in 3...2..

She slapped him. Hard.

Phoenix: 1.

He winced in pain and said, "H-hey, what gives?"

She yelled, " DEREK STILES! What were you doing flirting with that stupid fake blonde bimbo in there? Because of that, we wasted our time and Phoenix's gone!"

"Whoa calm down Angie..! She was the one who started it!"

"Oh sure. And what were you doing, flirting with her then?"

Derek: I'm not that bad am I?

Phoenix: You seem like a respectable man, although this is just a cliche all fics seem to have where someone's jealous about a mis-understanding.

Derek: Oh..that doesn't make me feel better.

Phoenix: It's a small comfort yes.

"I wasn't..! It was a misunderstanding..! She-"

" Never mind, Derek. If you want to go talk to that fake bimbo, go ahead. We missed out on Phoenix anyway. And mention to her that we are not "fiancés" anymore, so that she won't feel bad."

She mumbled to herself , " Not that she would. *scoff*"

Phoenix: Looks like the wedding's off.

Derek: Knowing my luck, I'd have to perform surgery on my wedding day.

Phoenix: That sounds pretty awful..

Derek: Not really, I'd feel a little bad about the suit though.

Derek looked at his assistant. What has gotten into her? She almost looked..jealous.

He took a chance and asked her, " Angie..? Are you..Jealous?"

She turned around and quickly replied, " Jealous? Me? Of who? That bimbo there? *Scoff* Please. No way."

Derek didn't know a lot about women but it was pretty obvious that Angie was, well.. Jealous.

Derek: It took me long enough.

Phoenix: Does Angie actually call any attractive woman a bimbo?

Derek: Oh dear lord no, her bedside manner is far better than mine thankfully.

He smiled and replied, " .., it's good that you're not, because there's really nothing to be jealous of, really."

"…"

He continued, "You keep saying that she's not naturally blonde, so it's probably true. And she might be pretty but.."

He whispered to himself, "Not as pretty as you.."

Phoenix: And Houston, we've launched.

Derek: Could I speak up a bit? I can't hear me!

She turned around, letting him see her eyes, red from the crying.

"..What did you just say?"

"T-that she was pretty but.."

"But..?"

He blushed, "Not as pretty as you."

Derek: Isn't she already facing me? I would've noticed if she was crying.

Angie let out a smile and wiped her tears off.

Phoenix: OBJECTION! I demand you let that smile out right now!

Derek: Angie! You should know better than to hold a smile captive like that!

Angie laughed, "Hahaha! Okay, I get it smooth-talker. Hmm.. Thanks. B-But next time, don't you dare flirt in front of me!"

"Yes m'am!"

" ..! Um, because when you do..it just wastes time!"

He took her hand and walked toward the car.

He might have missed Phoenix , but at least he still had Angie.

Derek: I still have that important file you know...I think that trumps some romantic fight.

[Much to Phoenix's surprise, the lights turn on at this and the screen darkens.]

Phoenix: ...Is it over?

Proxy: For now. This isn't the only chapter. This is the first of 3.

Phoenix: Oh...well..this wasn't as bad as I thought.

Proxy: Unlike the management, I believe in being firm but fair. I stick to my word. Now then, you two are free to go until I can call you back for the next chapters, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule for this Doctor Stiles.

Derek: No problem!

Proxy: You two will have a friend coming for the 2nd Chapter. That's all I can say. Bye boys.

[The two stand and nod at each other, each walking out of the matinee theater, Phoenix turning and looking up at it with a concerned look before continuing.]
