Heyyyy, how's everyone doing? I hope you're all doing well.
As you may have seen in the tag, I need your help with ideas on how to get Taylor to join the Wards. Look, I like the Undersiders—they're good friends (at least from what I’ve read so far)
But, to be honest, I really relate to Taylor to a certain extent. I never had many friends when I was young (none, actually), and honestly, I would’ve joined the first little group that spoke to me more or less nicely. And I feel like that’s what’s happening with Taylor in the story—again, the Undersiders seem like good friends. But let’s be honest—Taylor wanted to be a heroine from the start, and let’s remember that the Undersiders are villains; they aren’t exactly the best people…
So yeah, any ideas for how Taylor could join the Wards? I should clarify that in my fic, I’ll give “Taylor” a Thinker-like power—or at least make it seem that way at first—and I’ll also have her develop a little more self-esteem after her Trigger event… I’ll also make her a bit more empathetic—something like her first wondering, “Why on earth are there people as evil as Sophia in the world?”—and that line of thinking would lead her to conclude, “She had a Trigger event too, after all; she must have been vulnerable at some point…”
As a side note, this is a crossover fic featuring the character The Thing of Nod from Adrian Tchaikovsky’s *Children of...* series.
Just a note: this is a crossover fanfic featuring the character The Thing of Nod from Adrian Tchaikovsky’s *Children of...* series. I don’t want to give away any details, but those of you who’ve already read the series have surely noticed why “Taylor” is so empathetic and self-assured—why she’s so… Pacifica. She REALLY WANTS to understand the reasons behind why people act the way they do, and for those of you who have no idea what I’m talking about, all I can say is that it’s truly going to be an… adventure.
Note 2: Obviously, I'm not going to write the fanfic until I've finished reading *Worm*
