Speaking of retconning...
Speaking of retconning...
#1
As occasionally happens over on the SJGames forums, somebody asked abut IST - this time, in relationship to Infinite Worlds. Of course http://forums.sjgames.com/showpost.php? ... tcount=277]I replied, mentioning Drunkard's Walk, Fenspace, and Legend of Galactic Girls (none of them by name).

But one of the things I wrote there got me thinking: "Worse, when an Infinity agent pretending to be a local interviewed one of the locals who'd interacted at length with the visitors, ..."

And I remember that I've already introduced to Fenspace a character who has (a) reason to interview people, (b) no history before 2010, and (c) no visible means of support.

So... http://fnord.sandwich.net/fenwiki/doku. ... aico_tange]Maico Tange, Infinity Corps Agent-In-Place in Gernsback-2?

Well... it makes as much sense as anything else, really.

And goddammit, I just had the most horrible idea for a story... What happens when an influential faction finds out about Maico's little Secret?

White Star, Red Star, the story of a master of Xanatos Speed Chess, his loyal cyborg army, and the Infinite Worlds.

"You don't understand, Ms. Tange. I don't want to stop you, I want to help you."

*cut to the bit in Inglourious Basterds w/ Hitler screaming "Nein nein nein nein nein nein!"*

... maybe as an Infinities. Or a future story at any rate; there's a character waiting in the wings that I may never get to unveil but would be perfect for this kind of thing. Hm... *plotplotplot*

Okay, I just added footnotes to the FenWiki pages for Maico and Gernsback-2.

File it for later and finish one of the ones you have on the go, man! Unless it's a short-short.

(Yes, I can say that. I have been making progress on LoGG, after all.)

Nothing I write anymore is a short-short. It all fits into a Master Plan. I hate my brain and everything connected to it. %(
