Anyone else think that we really, really need to kick off a joint story looking into this "executive of a waste-management company in a large northeastern metropolitan city" that had his pet Nova re-arrange Cull's marbles? And Cull, would you mind if we did so? This has the makings of one heck of an interesting story....

That said, Timeslip's involvement is going to need to be somewhat limited, at least for the next few months; she's due to deliver a bouncing baby whatever on the 8th of May, and currently looks like she swallowed a beachball.
Well, I would prefer it if no one posts something along the lines of they know where Cull is and who his benefactor is and they are coming to save the day. If you want to investigate that is fine, but there is a reason the CZ Megasyndicate is doing so well. They have novas too and they know how to avoid nova interference. In Cull thye just got a new nova pet to sic on people they dont like.

An investigation storyline is pretty much what I was thinking, Cull; that said, I do appreciate that you set some solid parameters from the get-go (no "running to the rescue", etc.). But yeah, like Jager said, we're happy to take this in whatever direction you want.

Kind of like carving a trail into the history, motivations (his and his new friends), and current activities of Cull?

It definitely should end with the net failing to catch the elusive Cull once again, but what about the CZM and their involvement? Unlike Cull, they are not spectral and highly mobile. They have definite worldly connections and vulnerabilities.

Honestly, I'm not really looking for a group fiction. I'm also certainly not looking for the CZ guys to be swept up, that's kind of what Cull is falling into right now. Don't want him unemployed and happy. How boring. If someone wants to have fun spinning their wheels I have no problem with that. But the last group fiction Cull was involved in died a very early death and I'm kind of soured on the idea right now.

I would note that if the CZM were really vulnerable they would have fallen to the continued presence of Project Utopia and Team Tomorrow. Likely there is a cell structure in place.

Having noted that, I wouldn't mind touching on some related issues in a story. Perhaps something not collaborative in the classic sense but rather a series of interrelated stories? Each author writing a story using some common elements such as Nadine, the CZM or Cull himself?

Fair enough, Cull; I'll leave it be. With Timeslip getting ready to pop, it's probably best to keep her out of active stories at this point, anyway....
