SPEAKING of “the cycle starts again” and thus the rest of the era series, i thought i might. elaborate on what exactly my plans for it are.
so basically, the fics i have planned for the series (included in this list are the two i’ve already written as well!) are, in chronological order:
the end of an era -- “there will always be evil in this world, chiro.” antauri tells chiro that, with skeleton king gone, it’s time for him to start living a normal life. the team will go back into stasis until they’re needed again. understandably, chiro is upset by this, but it happens anyway. // one-shot which explores the start of the series. ooc in that i don’t believe it ever would have happened in canon.
an evil born anew -- chiro does his best to do what antauri asked and live a normal life, working through his resentment towards the monkey team for leaving and the effects being a teen hero left on him. however, his retirement only lasts a few years before the dark ones’ are back to their tricks again. a new dark chosen one rises. chiro steps up; builds an army to face them. // origins of the resistance & what chiro’s life was like post-monkeys. also includes the adoption of charlie, though that’s not the focus of the fic.
a void is filled -- after the monkeys emergence and then disappearance, a host of copycat scientists rushes in to replicate the famous hyperforce, creating a host of cybernetic simians of all shapes and sizes. among these simians is ARRW-22, or “arrow.” she manages to escape alongside several other monkeys, and finds her way to the resistance. arrow is preoccupied, however, with her search for her biological brother. however, as the clues mount up, arrow begins to wonder if she’s going to like what she finds... // origins of my robot monkey oc, arrow!
the cycle starts again -- chiro’s goddaughter, charlie, re-discovers the monkeys just in time for chiro to be captured by dark ones’ chosen. after the resistance resorts to unethical methods to try and get him back, charlie goes rogue with the team to try and get him back their way. // the big fic i’m writing right now, featuring my lovely human oc charlie~
