Tore through the Hive Mind/Hive Future novels in the past several days (after running into the series page on tv tropes and being interested) (haven’t read Perilous yet, and if I understand correctly the other works aren’t currently available?) and looking for fellow fans!
Have looked some at the search here already; would love to hear/see other people’s thoughts and if possible talk to people etc!
(Extra especially anything people have been doing with fusions and also developing other Hives! I’ve been somewhat developing some fusion ideas (with Untamed) (was actually part of what made me want to start reading!) and I think a few minutes ago just had an inspiration idea and seem to have started a Hive development.)
Hello! Happy to have you in the fandom! You’re right that the other works (Candidate and Telepath Mira) are not currently available, although I believe there’s still a copy of Candidate on the wayback machine.
I haven’t seen too much of people worldbuilding other Hives, or with fusions—I think there’s one fusion on Ao3 and I also have a crossover on Ao3, although I don’t think mine counts as a fusion. But I’ve definitely seen lots of people wanting to think more about what other Hives might be like!
I’m not super familiar with the Untamed myself, although I am reading the Scum Villain’s Self-Saving System which is also by MXTX but I’d still be interested in hearing about a fusion with it and Hive Mind!
If you’re a discord person, there is also a discord server for fans of Janet Edwards’s books: https://discord.com/invite/wsUvRuFakn
A place for fans of Earth Girl and other Janet Edwards works to hang | 22 members
It’s not super active, but there is occasional chatter, and sometimes people (…mostly me…) brainstorm AUs in there, since it’s easier to go back and forth than on tumblr in my opinion. Although I have been meaning to do more AUs on tumblr.
Aw, thank you for the very kind welcome! And thank you, that is good to know!
Ooh! I looked for the fandom on AO3 earlier (and found!); now that I'm though the main novels I need to actually check out the various works! (I went to the page, but wanted to avoid more spoilers than I already had so didn't go reading even many fic descriptions etc). And, I also want to think more about that! (...And about what they are almost definitely not like, but it'd be a concept that could fit into the world etc...).
Oh my goodness, small world! (Hope you're enjoying!)
Ooh, thank you for the link and invite! I think I saw a link for what may be the same discord in a post I saw, but it was more than a year old iirc so wasn't sure if it would still be the right place/link etc. (Also if I'm getting that correctly I think the name is referring to one of the other series, so also wasn't sure re that).
Ooh, AUs! What kind of AUs do you tend to do?
Thank you again!
