1. Rawr. 2. The Bureau of Fiction DOES control everything a character does which has some sort of effect on the world around them, such as what they say, what they do, etc. But, if the character is left unattended, they are able to control themselves and make decisions according to their character.

For example, a "goody two shoes" character wouldn't commit a crime and Mabel wouldn't start giving out fairy bread and wearing flowers. Explorer can be controlled like any other character, but his fourth wall breaking powers could resist OOC changes for some strange reason.

Also, a citizen who knows of the Bureau can request not to be controlled and left to themselves, but that's only courtesy. If a character's file is missing, the character CAN NOT be controlled. For example, Kwiksilver.

The Bureau of Entropy can also counter the Bureau of Fiction's control attempts and make a villain evil.

3. As for the stories, I dunno. Wrap them up quick, I reckon, or turn Phreaky Phriday into a short story.
