Requests noted and logged. Thanks for letting me know.
>>Is the 'everybody can play' aspect of this series really true?<<
Yes, Schrodinger's Heroes is an open-source project and everyone is welcome to play with it. This actually began with melannen's ideas in "101 Asexy Sex Scenes," introducing very simple character descriptions. I built on that, deliberately designing a scenario that would lend itself well to crossovers and working with different creators. Since then, several other folks have indeed written material for this project. You can see their stuff linked on the menu page where the stuff with author names is written by people other than me.
>> Not that I disbelieve you, just that I want to be absolutely sure before I write anything using someone else's characters. <<
That's fair. You can work with these characters as I've described them -- bear in mind that not all the renditions are identical across my different works. (Quinn in particular is mercurial.) You could also create your own version of them in another dimension, similar or quite different. Or come up with totally new characters in the same setting. It's flexible.
>>I have a fic idea or two brewing, and I don't want to go there unless I'm sure I won't be ticking anybody off.<<
Go for it! I would love to see what you do with this. It's always fun when other folks contribute stuff. Also the project is gradually developing an actual fanbase, so more readers would probably enjoy it too.
I customarily post Schrodinger's Heroes as an open sandbox in the Crowdfunding Creative Jam. I'm not posting a jam session in December because the month is so packed, but it should be back in January. My next Poetry Fishbowl will be on Tuesday, Dec. 4 with a theme of "games and toys." You're welcome to drop by and request something for Schrodinger's Heroes, or any other of my settings/characters that you like.
Welcome!
