Honestly, Jason is just a beginner at using his mental powers. As usually Mark has more control and is better able to use this skill. Mark discovered his powers and started training years earlier than the others. (Shortly after his visit to Riga to find his father. Can't remember the name of the episode.)

Jason does have telepathy, but is well restricted, so he does not go invading peoples minds or privacy. (No picking through womens' minds to find their inner-most fantasies and trying to fullfill them.)

He can do some teleportation of small or light weight objects. (No picking up women and moving them to his bed.) Besides what woman would not want the Condors arms around her when he physically carried her to his bed. And in case you were wondering he can not move objects that are close to or attached to another persons body, inside their aura. In other words clothing can not be removed or skirts can not be lifted. (That is not to say he has not tried. : ) )

Part of teleportation is unlocking locks. If the team is chained up a mental push of the locks will release the chains. Any door that can open and is locked, can be persauded to be opened with a mental push. Jason's agressiveness makes him better at this than the others - just like he blasts mecha, he blasts open locks.

What else......can't think of any more at this minute but that should be enough for you to think about for now.

And you said you were no good at smut! It sounds like you've thought up some very creative stuff all on your own!!!!!!! Bowdown

Seriously though, that sounds really interesting. I like the idea that Jason is more capable in certain areas that reflect his more aggressive personality. I can tell that you've really thought this through.

The more I hear about your AU, the more I am blown away, CD! You really need to get this down in one central location, so that it doesn't slip away from you!

As said when I first joined.

I have lived in my Universe for over 20 years.

It is bound to be creative and well developed.
I know people would love to read stories from it, but

1) I am not sure where to start writing from: beginning, middle, end.
2) I am not sure if people will understand what is happening when I place them in my universe.
3) It is easier to "talk" about my Universe (tell people what my universe is like) than to write a story from it.

Does that last one make sense.
I know I am writing about my universe but to me, it is not a story I am writing, it is just the background/history. Maybe to others it is a story and I do not realize it.

Hmmmm.....

I am an advocate of starting at the beginning, mostly because as a reader I hate it when stories in AUs jump around. I lose track of what's happening and what people's relationships are, and it's just confusing.

So I would start at the beginning. Now that's not necessarily the VERY beginning of the history of your AU, but the history of the G-Force characters. What was the first time any of them ever had an inkling of what was going on? Based on what you've said already, I'm guessing that it's Mark, when he visited Riga and first learned of his telepathic abilities. So why not tell a story from his POV, about his discovery of those powers, and how he developed them?

If you want, you could have a prologue detailing the five children who were sent away from Riga toward Earth, or a little prequel story about how Anderson came to adopt the kids.

The reader will understand what is happening in your AU if you explain it AS the team discovers what's happening. Have the reader live the discoveries with Mark and the others, and then they will understand.

Is this making sense?

Obviously you have a LOT of material here, and that is what is overwhelming you. Start with one little story, and see what you come up with. You don't have to explain the whole universe at once, KWIM?

Oh, yes I understand.

Probably my biggest problem is, in my mind I am working on the team during their training. (Before they became G-Force, the team. Before the TV series.)

The story I will be posting is from this time.
If you remember the fragment I posted earlier Jason is 17, Mark is 15. A few years before their first mission. (I have the teams' first mission when Mark is 18 and Jason would be 20.) And the Chief still thought Jason was going to be the one to lead the team.

On Mark's 16 birthday, Anderson in a fit of rage tells Mark he will be Commander. (nice birthday present huh.) My muses have yet to tell me what Jason did to anger the Chief so much that the Chief makes this unilateral decision. (But knowing Jason it was something stupid and probably impulsive.)


Hmmm....Start with Mark learning about his powers huh.....That is what you are most interested in?

Then I will see what I can do. It may take a while to remember all that happened as it is ancient history for me. In a way it is the beginning for me. As I see it, it is what happened after the TV series, and where I started developing my universe.

It doesn't have top be Mark learning about his powers. I just thought that was the beginning of your epic. If you have a lot of stories to tell about the team growing up, then do that! That's a very interesting setup as well. I also like that it doesn't dive right into your AU, but just lets it settle slowly into the reader's mind.

I guess I should have been more clear: start at where your universe starts to be different from the canon universe. And yes, that might be the team growing up and training.

What about a certain Redsquadron

Several people at work including myself sometimes don't bother shaving for couple of weeks and it seems that I am the only one who can grow the best bear, goat tee and Moustache in the place.


Took a photo of myself yesterday of my 2 week old beard

Sweet...Met, are you gonna grow it long...like a wizard's beard? LOL

My hubby wanted to grow one, but I talked him out of it. I don't like facial hair on him.

But yours looks good, Met...keep it up!

Geez, Met, you have a lot of resemblance with one of my friends. Are you a redhead or is just the light?

I'm a red head Amy and unfortuantely, I will shaving it off over this weekend.

the good news is that I can grow another one any tim, though I do prefer having a goatee and if I did grow and keep a beard, there's no way I will grow it like a wizard's as I may trip up all the time.
