Need to Know Basis
The power of the portal sinks into Tucker’s skin the second he crosses Amity Park’s borders. At first, he thinks it’s a trick of his imagination. He’s read all the studies on the dread that permeates the air here. There’s been tests on the air quality that attempted to explain why it feels harder to breathe, first hand accounts of the slithering sense of paranoia among residents, and dissections of eerie, unkillable flora growing around the borders of the small town. But none of it truly conveyed the experience of crossing into the city limits. What once was merely a topic of intellectual curiosity is now the chill of death’s fingers wrapping around his spine, and it’s far too dreadful to be a figment of his imagination. Maybe coming here was a mistake. But this project matters. If it didn’t, Tucker wouldn’t be on the back of a military grade transport vehicle, rumbling closer towards the portal’s nauseating pull.

Happy Invisobang! I am thrilled to be sliding in at the last minute to share what I have been working on for the better part of this year.
Need to Know Basis is set in an alternative universe where Tucker, Sam, and Danny didn't grow up in Amity Park together. They all pursued separate careers in academia, and now they are joining forces with the GIW to dismantle the FentonWorks portal before it can cause more harm to Amity Park citizens.
It has been an honor and a privilege to be partnered with the endlessly talented @abrielarnold and @marzfartz for this project. I will link the wonderful pieces they created for this fic in the AO3 notes!
Chapters 1-2 of the fic are live now! At a whopping 11 chapters total, this is my first ever foray into the world of longfic. As excited as I am to share this fic, I still want the gratification creating suspense in my readers, so the rest of the chapters will be posted throughout the next two months.
I hope you enjoy Need To Know Basis and all the other incredible work the Phantom has made this Invisobang!
