Plotting idea, maybe for Nano.

It's called Windows.


Some background. When I originally created Alec, he was someone who I would insert into various worlds, like the X-Men cartoon in the 90s, or Exo-Squad or Conan the Adventurer, Double Dragon, Gargoyles, Star Trek, Pirates of Dark Water, whatever I happened to be fanning about at the time. I tended to make him related to whoever I really liked in the show. One of the things that was consistant though was he traveled through realities. I've always liked that bit of alternate reality traveling, but the few times I tried to make a coherent story using it, it fell apart. So, I created the world for Alec. And it's a very nice world, I think.

Now however, I have an idea for how to make a story that involves Alec and his travels. The kicker is that it's not going to be from his POV and instead turn him sort of into a Doctor like character, who shows up out of nowhere and Hilarity Ensues. I figure I'll do five stories. Two where he is a catalyst for the Hilarity Ensuing, two where he's just a part of it as a secondary character and one where he's just there in the background. There for I would have a series of five unrelated stories, their only connection being the appearance of Alec somewhere.

A monumental task, I know. I have to figure out what stories to make and things like that. It is something I have been stewing on.

Ooh, I'd read that and I love to see what worlds you would choose. Alec is one of the most interesting characters that I've seen since he's just complicated and all sorts of himself.

Oh and if your friend ever happens to be around, I could always set up an OOM shaped thing for other times Abhorsens to try and make him actually talk about stuff.

They wouldn't be published worlds.

But the sort of "picture" that started this bunny was of a government scientist about to start a Very Dangerous Experiment involving a nuclear reactor type thing when it has to be stopped. Why? an intruder. Who turns out to be Alec who is standing by some sensitive part with a screwdriver in his hand and a sheepish look on his face.

Oh, and I shall speak to friend, as I'm assuming Slow times is okay?

Slow time is always, always okay and hee, still would be great to read and to see the worlds that you do create for him to visit.
