[personal profile] chanter_greenie is holding a half-price sale for the Orange!verse stories in Schrodinger's Heroes, along with a few other items.  Prices range from $5.25 to $23, and the sale runs through September 19.  There is a PayPal button on the profile page.  It would be really great to see more of these posted.  Some are dark, others lighter, but they're all good examples of how people right against an oppressive culture.

 [personal profile] chanter_greenie has posted "Parliament Hill's Reply" in the Orange!verse of Schrodinger's Heroes.  It's a response to the craptastic election.

This story came out of the June 2015 [community profile] crowdfunding Creative Jam. It was inspired by prompts from [personal profile] dialecticdreamer and [personal profile] chanter_greenie. It fills the "post-traumatic stress disorder" square in my 6-16-15 card for the [community profile] hc_bingo fest, and the "experimentation" square in my 6-1-15 card for the June Relationship Bingo fest. This story has been sponsored by EdorFaus. It belongs to the Don't Try This at Home thread of the Schrodinger's Heroes project.

WARNING: This story contains some intense topics. Highlight to read the more detailed warnings, some of which are spoilers. There are identity issues, emotional angst, some very ugly racism, prejudiced language, a physical scuffle, post-traumatic stress, and other challenges. However, the upstanding characters handle it pretty well, and the dirtbags are pretty obviously dirtbags. If these are sensitive issues for you, please consider your tastes and headspace before clicking through.

This story belongs to the Schrodinger's Hulk series, a crossover between Hulk and Schrodinger's Heroes. It is a sequel to "Safe Keeping" and "Two Spirits, One Past," and "For the Very First Time." It fills the "original characters" square in my 6-11-14 card for the [community profile] fanbingo fest, and the "sunny" square in the public card for the Birthday Bingo fest.

Format: Fiction
Title: "The Path of the Sun"
Fandom: Hulk/Schrodinger's heroes
Summary: Bruce is not a fan of birthdays, nor of parties in general. Pat is pretty sure he can change Bruce's mind.
Required Warnings: No standard warnings apply.
Notes: Gentle coaxing, laid-back planning, low-key celebration, party food, games, team as family, cottoncandy fluff.

Here ends "The Path of the Sun." Thank you all for sticking with the Schrodinger's Hulk series this far! I love your input. Final thoughts on the story overall are welcome, in addition to reactions on this specific chapter.

I do not have another piece of fanfic to post at this time. I've been crazy-busy the last few weeks and will be through the end of October. Sorry to break off like this, but when I'm overbooked I have to cut the nonpaying projects first. :( Keep an eye on the fiction and poetry tags here in my blog; I'll post more if or when I have some.

A note on feedback: While it's not necessary to comment on every post I make, remember that I don't know who reads/likes things if nobody says anything. Particularly on long stories, I've discovered that I get antsy if there's nothing but crickets chirping for several posts. So it helps to give me feedback at least once, even if it's just "I like this" or "This one doesn't grab me." First and last episodes are ideal if you rarely feel inspired to comment in the middle.

Begin with Part 1, Part 2.

This casts the Hulk from The Avengers. So it doesn't match up exactly with the various Hulk movies, and Bruce Banner is played by Mark Ruffalo. The first story in the series goes into alternate-universe mode after the lab accident while Bruce is running from General Ross but before Bruce meets any of the Avengers.

The Schrodinger's Heroes, project features an apocryphal television show supported by an imaginary fandom. It's science fiction about quantum physics and saving the world from alternate dimensions. It features a very mixed cast in terms of ethnicity and sexual orientation. This project developed with input from multiple people, and it's open for everyone to play in. You can read more about the background, the characters, and a bunch of assorted content on the menu page.

Here is the last of the recently sponsored Schrodinger's Heroes stories written by [personal profile] chanter_greenie.  "Keeping a Logbook" puts a human face on refugees and the people who help them flee in hope of a better life.  That's something we need more of in today's world.

 [personal profile] dialecticdreamer has written the short story "Training Exercise" for Schrodinger's Heroes.  A friend of Pat's alerts him to the Army approaching the Teferact compound, but this time it's a little different.

 [personal profile] dialecticdreamer made this awesome bookmark as demifiction for the Schrodinger's Heroes series Don't Try This at Home.  TeJay is using this to keep his place in a library book.

The Mix It Up at Lunch project is a real activity designed by Teaching Tolerance.  There are lots of resources on the site explaining how it works.

This poem was prompted by [personal profile] dialecticdreamer and is posted here as barter for a presentation on how to handle soup fights, which will appear later. It also fills the "WILD CARD: family" square in my 3-6-14 card for the [community profile] origfic_bingo fest. It belongs to the Don't Try This at Home series in the Schrodinger's Heroes project, following the story "Don't Try This at Home."

[personal profile] dialecticdreamer commissioned this story as an extension of the Don't Try This at Home series in the Schrodinger's Heroes project; it will make more sense if you've read the earlier installments, including the new poem "Moving Through the Water."  It also fills the "competent" square in my 5-22-14 card for the [community profile] origfic_bingo fest and the "heart on sleeve" square in my 6-1-14 card for the [community profile] genprompt_bingo fest.

WARNING: This story covers Eric's apology to TeJay for bullying him, so it contains some intense feelings and conversations. If these are sensitive issues for you, it's prudent to make sure you're in a steady frame of mind should you decide to read it.

 [personal profile] chanter_greenie has posted a timeline of the stories in the Orange!verse series.  This belongs to the Schrodinger's Heroes project, but a different dimension than the one I customarily write in (which is the Scarlet!verse).  I deliberately designed the series to facilitate crossovers and divergences, so I was thrilled to see this storyline emerge -- and it also deals with a lot of sociopolitical issues relevant to our world.  Currently there are 6 items posted that you can read, 6 available for sponsorship, and 3 in progress.  If you enjoy my Schrodinger's Heroes stuff, take a look at this too; you'll probably enjoy it.

This poem was a commission for [personal profile] dialecticdreamer and is presented here in barter for her poem "Childish and Foolish." It fills the "waterboarding" square on my 6-10-13 card for the [community profile] hc_bingo fest and the "first kiss" square on my 5-22-14 card for the [community profile] origfic_bingo fest. This poem belongs to the Schrodinger's Heroes project. It is a prequel to the story "Don't Try This at Home."

WARNING: The following poem contains intense topics which may disturb some viewers. Highlight to read the warnings, which are also spoilers. A happy interracial relationship is interrupted by bigoted hazing. Teen boys emulate waterboarding which they have seen on TV. Unsurprisingly this results in PTSD.   If you're not sure whether you want to read this poem, [personal profile] dialecticdreamer is willing to discuss it without spoilers so you can make a more informed decision.
