The Realm of eViL rEbO

Darians untold Temper(sic)
By: Chibi Usa
My first non-eViL rEbO MSTing, and it shows. The fanfic itself tells of a doomed pizza dinner with Serena and Darien. In a very bizarre scene, Serena breaks a plate and Darian mourns over the passing of "Phil the Plate." You just know you're relationship is going down the tube when your boyfriend turns to his tableware for companionship. After they order pizza and try to out-eat each other, Serena and Darian watch Ren and Stimpy. When Serena asks Darian about his parents, he suddenly snaps and beats her to a bloody pulp and she flees the apartment. All presented with some of the worst spelling and grammar this side of Dr. Thinker. At the time, making the election host segments tie in to the 2000 election seemed like a good idea, until I realized after release that these would date it rather quickly. Mind you, this MSTing was written and released in 1999, a year before the scourge of the dreaded Chads. Also hosted at Web Site #9.

Love Bites
By: Jamie
My first group MSTing where I headed the project. I knew I had to riff this one when I read the story back in the summer of 2000, and finally started it in 2001. It was released in early 2002 and remains one of my proudest accomplishments. This story was also a first because it was the first time I ever asked permission to MST a fanfic. Fortunatly, the author, Jamie, was a good friend of mine and was also a MSTie herself, so there were no problems.

This is a very odd sort of bandfic, starring song parodist "Weird Al" Yankovic and former Talk Soup host Hal Sparks. They're buddies who've been through some horrible kidnapping experience out in Albuquerque, courtesy of the dreaded The Gapp (two p's!). But that's incomprehensible backstory that shows up halfway through the story. Before that, they are selected by a pair of vampires, Melanie and Layla, as their new recruits for succubi. And it doesn't get any more logical than that. While working on the story, I attempted not to use any Weird Al song jokes for fear I'd be the only one who'd get them. To my surprise, when the riffs came back from my fellow MSTers, they had all used heapings of Al jokes. I kept most of them after that, figuring that if their were that many jokes out of so many writers, I wouldn't have any trouble.

In addition to my own projects, I have also contributed to several other MSTings as well.

The Misery Senshi Neo-Zero Double Blitzkrieg Debacle
By: Peter W. Guerin
Before you attempt to read this, I should warn you-it will take you a good month or so to plow through it. The entire MSTing is over 1MB in length. In addition to an overly long, tortuous story, the original fanfic also included a 40-page appendix so the author could inform you of just about every facet of Japanese culture, and then explain EVERY SINGLE JOKE HE MADE IN THE FANFIC.

This story is a crossover of Daria, Beavis and Butthead, and Sailor Moon. I can barely give a summary of the fanfic, but I'll give it my best. *deep breath* Daria, or rather the violent, unfunny sociopath that the author has replaced Daria's character with, has been invited to Japan by her e-mail pen pal, Mizuno Ami. Ami is going to Germany and recruits Daria to take her place as Sailor Mercury. Meanwhile, Lawndale is gearing up for the big Lawndale/Highland football game. Apparently, that date is ideal for not one, not two, but THREE terrorist organizations decide to wreak havoc, with two of them targetting that populous example of American greatness...Lawndale. One is a militia out to conquer the town, the other is some generic Middle Eastern terrorist group who steals the flight that Ami just HAPPENS to be on so he can crash it into Lawndale. The third sends one woman, Amazana Yoriko to steal a prototype jet plane. She succeeds and using her one plane, decimates all of Japan. This fanfic features the most terrifying scenes I have ever witnessed in a fanfic. From terrorist Akbar's forcing the entire hostage plane to sing Cat Stevens songs, to the ridiculous Solar Warrior revealing that he was practically every single important person in history, to Beavis and Butthead inexplicably becoming sexual monsters, and more breast shots than an entire season of La Blue Girl, this fanfic will pummel you mercilessly until all you can do is cry feebly for mercy to every single deity you can think of, even you if you are an atheist. The MSTing is good though.^_^

This, my friends, is truly fanfic hell. It was also my very first group MSTing. I was so over-whelmed by the size that, in my inexperience, I finally gave up on reading and riffing the whole thing and just riffed certain sections. I can still pick out the riffs I made that are in the final piece, but I didn't contribute nearly the amount the other authors did. Still, I enjoyed every minute of working on it and this remains a favorite MSTing of mine. Though I still think I was the only Sailor Moon fan on board, and as such, I tried to keep the jokes about the show accurate and tried to replace all occurences of "Scout" with Senshi. I didn't get all of them, and it doesn't really matter that much when you consider that anime bashing is in character for MST3K itself.

The Return of the Lawndale Militia
By: Peter W. Guerin
Hey, remember that mean ol' Lawndale Militia that Daria locked horns with in "Malaria Sushi Wonderbug?" Well wouldn't you know, they're back again, and they're out to kill Daria. But it seems they're not alone, because they're getting their weapons from a Japanese yakuza syndicate. Of course, you know that Peter loves crossovers, so Daria is sent to Japan once more and crossed overwith Koko wa Greenwood (Here is Greenwood) and Gunsmith Cats. In addition, our good friends Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Kamen show up to be deus ex machinas towards the end of the story. This fanfic's evil points are the overly bloated cast of characters (watch the author list all 7,000 or so of them every few sentences!), the cast being able to flaunt all sorts of pesky legal issues without even addressing them and suffering no consequences, plus Daria getting gas from airline food! Ho ho! Your sides will heave from such hijinks, though probably more from nausea. Oh, and Peter threatens us with another sequel to end his "Lawndale Militia Trilogy," but thankfully, he never wrote it and seems to have entirely given up on Daria fanfics since the end of the series.

Again, being the anime freak that I am, I must have been one of the only MSTers in the project who actually knew what the hell those shows were. Unfortunately, I got involved in this project rather late and I'll be darned if I got more than two riffs in the final product. Yet, Matt Blackwell, our fearless leader, still found goodness in his soul to include my name. When I later went back to read the finished MSTing after the end of the project, I decided to do some light Gunsmith Cats and Greenwood research so I could have some idea how out of character the lesser known cast was. To my utter lack of surprise, Peter seems to have really screwed up the crossdressing, effeminate Shun. When Daria first meets him, he has just gotten some brand new breast implants, thus moving from transvesitite to transsexual, and he brags about all the men he's dated and fooled. Problem is, from what I garnished from the websites, Shun just likes dressing up as a woman and being feminine, even if it was forced on him by his crazy parents. He's still attracted to girls. If I'm wrong here, fans of Greenwood are free to contact me, at least until I can find a copy of the show to judge for myself. And I have yet to find a Greenwood site that even mentions the ghost Misako.

Triumph of the Retart
By: Peter W. Guerin
Pete just doesn't know when to quit, and thus comes this new tale of Daria's trials and tribulations. As it is a prequel of sorts to his Lawndale Militia trilogy, and as such involves no anime crossovers, no death planes, no ectoplasmic beings...just normal high school occurences such as hitmen, sexual abuse, suicide bombers, militant straight-edgers, and even Rage Against the Machine. I can't believe I just typed that. Yesl, this story is the tale of Daria learning about the poor, mistreated, abused, ignored Special Ed students. She even befriends one who immediatly Frenches her after she saves him from some bullies. It is love at first French, and soon David is glorified by the story as the whinier, wimpier, whiter version of Nelson Mandela because he is...running for Student Council President. Thus, Sandi, leader of the Fashion Club, decides to put the "retarts" in their place by defeating David. Eschewing typical campaign tactics of advertising and speeches, the Fashion Club decides to hire a hitman to kill David. Rage Against The Machine is called to give David support in his campaign. Oh, and for some reason, there is a black Baptist minister who sings, complete with Pete including the lyrics to all of his songs. It all makes sense when you...oh wait, no it doesn't. Oh, and there's two versions of this MSTing availible.

The link above leads to a version that has a rather graphic sex-scene edited out. This was necessary so that the MSTing could be included in that archive. Fortunately, Pete had run into the same problem and already had a version missing that horriffic scene. However, if you're brave enough, Matt Blackwell's site hosts the original, R-rated version. Besides the inclusion of this scene, there are no other differences between the two versions of the MSTing.

By this point, I felt I wanted to get more involved in these group MSTings I was participating in and so I plunged into this story ready to carve out my own piece of Guerin. It sure helped that this story was much shorter than the previous ones, only around 200KB before the riffs started pouring in. And then I read it. Having ADHD myself and also befriending several Special Ed students myself in my life, this was the first Guerin that actually offended me. When I turned my riffs in for the first draft, I included a wild rant to try and get some of the issues off my chest. Matt Blackwell, always the Fearless Leader, actually issued a sort of apology for the badness of the fanfic. Back to my involvement, I was quite pleased with how many of my jokes made it into the final MSTing. In particular, I was proud of the jokes I contributed about Pastor Armistead, the afore-mentioned singing preacher. As a musical buff, I couldn't resist quoting as many lyrics as I could from as many musicals as I could think of, even it meant I had to put the image in my head of the pastor in fishnets as Frank N' Furter. An enjoyable project, which gave me the confidence to forge ahead and organize the Love Bites MSTing. Mind you, I had no part in the riffing of the sex scene. I finally had the guts to read it when it was fully riffed for the final version of the MSTing, and I think I'm going to be afraid of sex for the rest of my life.
