Heh, I just used an interrobang. I tried to use an interrobang during the second RP and got a box error. Looks like the forum has advanced along with the role-play.

It's amazing how long we stuck through this. It's gonna be weird having Darwin's Soldiers over...I was in high school when this all began, and now I'm a college graduate looking for work in San Francisco.

Hey, LB&T, I'm reading your future fics. And I love them!

It's kinda depressing to see Shelton fall from great scientist to drunkard.

On a side note, I thought I made it canon that Dr. Zanasiu's (adopted!) son was a Peregrine Falcon named Erik Zanasiu-Varma and that he and Sharon had hyphenated their names?

Oh well, consider this a canon proclamation:

As biotech has advanced so much, James Zanasiu Jr. is in fact, the second (and biological) son of Sharon and Doctor Zanaisu.

However, he has some Human traits - namely he can actually sweat like a Human but he looks outwardly canine. In addition, he has a odd number of chromosomes so he is sterile. However, reproductive cloning allows so-called "Twin Specians" like him to reproduce.

Edit: Time travel makes my head spin. But still a pretty kickass addition.

I have to determine the canonicity but for now, I'll file it as alternate continuity.

Don't make any proclamations until you've finished reading them: There's justification for Junior's absense in the epilogue, and I think I mention he was born before they got married, hense the lack of hyphenated name. (Both of these reasons are why I didn't use Erik; I only borrow characters if I'm going to leave them in the same state I borrowed them.)

Timeline:
2009: the events of Disruptive Selection occur.
2033: the events of Chasing Seconds occur.
2039: the Disruptive Selection epilogue occurs. Remember I said I needed it to be at least 30 years later because of something I was working on?

Sorry for ignoring your statement about species not being able to reproduce together, but it really cut out a good source of dramatic tension and storytelling possibilities. A major theme of CS is that all three main characters are trying to live up to the legacies of their larger-then-life parents.

Everyone else, Serris is talking about the miniseries I published on the Darwins Soldiers blog to celebrate the 5th anniversary of the 1st roleplay. Now I'm working on a video game! Once I get non-phone internet in my new apartment I'll start posting about it on the blog, its looking really good so far.
